How Lash Bath Can Help You Improve Your Retention

What is a lash bath? What is a good eyelash shampoo? Best eyelash wash? Because you can't apply lash extensions to dirty natural lashes, you'll need to do a lash bath to ensure that you have a good starting point for the lashes.

A lash bath is essential in applying eyelash extensions because it ensures that the natural lashes are clean, healthy, and ready for the next step in the application. It's also important to ensure that the adhesive sticks properly to the lashes because they must be clean and dry before application.

As a lash artist, you'll want to ensure that you're using a good quality lash shampoo so that the natural lashes stay healthy.

If you're new to lash extensions, you might wonder what a lash bath is or why it's so important. A lash bath is a foam cleanser we apply to the natural lashes before any lash service. It's used to clean off any oils or makeup residue on the natural lash and to ensure that they're free of any debris or dust.

We'll discuss lash baths in today's blog. We use foam cleansers to guarantee that our client's lashes are perfectly clean. You can use it before or after a service.

 

LASH BATH BENEFITS

First of all, what is a lash bath? A lash bath is a cleansing process that we use to prepare our client's natural lashes before applying extensions. The purpose of the bath is to remove oil and impurities from your natural lashes, which will ensure that your extensions last longer.

Lash bath isn't just for lash artists. It's a must-have for all clients and anyone with eyelash extensions. We give it to our clients when they first visit us in our lash room so that we can ensure that they're following proper aftercare at home. We use a lash shampoo on extensions because it's an oil-free product. Anything with oil in it will cause the lashes to fall off.

The lash foam shampoo helps clean the lashes, and there aren't many oil-free alternatives on the market, so it's a must-have. When cleaning your client's lashes, you should use a soft bristle brush to get right in between the fans or lashes and give them a thorough clean.

To avoid the buildup that will cause lashes to fall out, make sure you're continuously washing it out with recommended lash shampoo.

You'll have a lot of buildup on the lashes if you don't wash them enough, which could lead to an infection or blepharitis in the eyes. Not cleaning the lashes can lead to plenty of eye problems. A lash bath is required. Before you begin your lash set, make sure your client's lashes are clean.

Before their appointment, some lash artists advise their clients to wash their lashes. Before starting each lash appointment, I prefer to take a lash wash. 

Some of our clients have said that they had washed their lashes before coming in. But consider this: she drove from her house to yours, and her lashes were sweat and can contact dust and oils. Perhaps she'll travel somewhere else before her lash appointment, then return to your area a few hours later. 

If she gets an extension on top of the oil or dust that she gets while traveling to your place, you'll put it there, then she'll wash them the next day, and they'll all fall off, which clients blame for the lash artist, and then you'll have to fix them again.

However, if you don't want to give out a free lash bath, you can charge an extra $6 or depend on your area's price range, but at the very least, you'll know you're not wasting any time or money.

CONCLUSION

Clean lashes equal better retention. Therefore, you should always have a lash shampoo in your cart and send it home with your clients when they leave.

Every time a client comes in for a fill or complete set, I clean their lashes. People typically blame everything on the glue, but the truth is that cleaning the lashes is essential for longer retention.
