How Much Adhesive Should you Use?

We've seen a ton of lash artists experiencing retention issues. ⁠

From left to right, what do you think is the right amount of adhesive you should be using? ⁠

Trick question — these are all correct amounts of adhesive. Back in March we put up a both a blog and Instagram post highlight lash porosity. Click the link in bio to see the external links to our original posts. The gist of it is that clients that have porous lashes will easily absorb the adhesive and clients that have low porosity will repel products. ⁠

While one looks like there isn't enough and one looks like there's too much, all of these are just the right amounts of adhesive depending on what your clients natural lashes are. ⁠

If your client has delicate natural lashes and you're working on their inner corners opt for option A. ⁠

If your client has average natural lashes opt for option B. ⁠

If your client has thick, coarse lashes opt for option C. ⁠

As an extra measure to prevent fans from popping off, wrap your fans! If you like using Bonder (or any curing solution) thread your fans. Those babies won't go anywhere until that natural lash is ready to say goodbye.⁠
