Tweezers are lash artists number 1 tool essential in their arsenal in creating beautiful lash sets.  So how can a beginner lash artist find herself a perfect tweezer?

Having the right tools is crucial for doing great work. The improper tweezers can create not only delays in your work, but also pain in the short and long term.

As a beginner, I struggled so much to find the right tweezers when I was starting my journey in the lash industry. My tweezers were not functioning and I had no idea what’s happening. I couldn’t understand what were the important characteristics of a good tweezer. I eventually persisted and tried multiple brands, and eventually found the winning combination

I finally chose to begin my own lash supply company because I wanted to help other lash artists who were having trouble finding the right tweezers.

This is an image to show you how to hold the tweezers in the best possible way and where your hands should be placed.

Price

First of all, Lash artists, you must remember when you are on the hunt for lash tweezers: You will get what you pay for.

There are tweezers that are affordable, but please don’t go the cheap route. I promise you, there are affordable but of high-quality tweezers.

Don't skimp on the quality of your daily lash tool to save money. The most crucial thing to look for in extension tweezers is quality.

Material

I strongly advise searching for medical-grade steel while shopping for high-quality products. Stainless steel sterilizes, does not rust, and is extremely durable!

Yet beware: I've come across some professional companies who claim their tweezers are made of medical-grade steel, but they corroded! 

Your eyelash tweezers will be your friend so better get purchase it from a reputable company that you trust with the quality. I recommend looking for a company that offers refunds in case the tweezers are of poor quality and don’t function to your liking.

Many PRO lash artists are using different tweezers for different sets, and different parts of their job. For example, on the inner corners some lash artists only like to work with the short boot lash tweezer, meanwhile, while working on classic sets they will use an isolation tweezer and a curved dolphin tweezer.

Weight

When it's heavy, your wrist will most likely become fatigued and stressed. Imagine getting hand fatigue five or more times a day. If you see a lot of clients in a day, this isn't a good idea. This is why I highly advocate for a very light ergonomic design; believe me when I say you will thank me.

How can I extend the life of my eyelash extensions?

You finally found your dream tweezers. That’s great! now you should make sure that they last.

• Do not use the same tweezers for the thin lash extensions(like ~0.07mm) and for the thicker lash extensions. Using tweezers for thicker lashes requires less tension on the tweezer.
• Use a tweezer cleaner or eyelash adhesive remover to remove the stain. Clean off any excess lash glue before storing them away.
• Keep the tweezers in the enclosed tweezer case.
• Sanitize and disinfect your tools effectively.
