The Magic of Lash Extension Glue: Mastering Retention through Science

In the world of lash extensions, achieving long-lasting, beautiful results goes beyond skilful application and high-quality materials. The secret ingredient? Understanding the science behind your lash extension glue. Today, we dive deep into the crucial role of room conditions and how they influence the performance of your lash glue, leading to impeccable client retention and lash longevity.

Understanding the Science of Lash Glue: At the heart of lash extension success is the glue. Its composition and behavior are highly responsive to environmental conditions, particularly room temperature and humidity. Striking the perfect balance in these conditions ensures optimal glue performance, resulting in strong attachment, exceptional retention, and preventing the dreaded slipping of lash extensions.

Personal Experience with Clear Vision: Through my experience, I've found that the best conditions for working with our Clear Vision glue are at a humidity level of 55% and a temperature of around 23-24°C. In these conditions, the lashes adhere beautifully, hold firm, and my clients enjoy impressive retention rates.

Finding Your Glue’s Sweet Spot: Each lash technician has unique environmental conditions and personal preferences. It's vital to experiment and discover what conditions work best for you and your glue. This experimentation isn't just about achieving great attachment and retention; it’s about ensuring the consistency and reliability of your work.

Adapting to Changing Conditions: But what happens when the room conditions fluctuate? This is where understanding and adapting becomes your superpower. By using a tailored graph like this one that correlates humidity levels and temperature to optimal glue performance, you can quickly adjust your environment. For example, if the humidity drops and lashes start slipping, simply refer to the graph, adjust your room's temperature or humidity accordingly, and maintain your glue's effectiveness.
