This is the easiest method for me as the pinch method isn't as time efficient for me.
Be sure to find the sweet spot of your tweezers and start to grab your lashes close to the base. This allows the base to stay in tack while the top flares out.
Slightly release the grip of your tweezers and shimmy the lashes left and right to open up the lash fan. Once you get the fan to the desired size, grip the fan a little tighter and gently pull lashes forward.
If the base of the fan isn't as thin as you'd like, dip the base in the adhesive and manipulate the tip by swiping both sides on an edge to bunch the base together, allowing it to form a point.

Hey! How do you know the right amount of lashes to pull when making your own fans? Are you just comfortable and know it’s the right amount?

[@lilyshulik3703]

I also am curious about that!

[@stylewithscootie6242]

[@SY-se9qn]

I would love to master the shimmy method but it’s one of the most challenging for me!

[@arielrenee]

It definitely takes some time to getting use to but once you find the sweet spot on the tweezer it makes it much easier! Keep practicing you will get it :)

[@EnvisionArtistry]

This is how my teacher taught me, but I understood better from you thanks

[@arielrenee]

Omg that’s amazing to hear! I’m so glad I can help! ❤️❤️

[@marquitamcghee4883]

Does it really matter about the number of lashes in each handmade lash? Like is it a big deal if one fan have 6 lashes and another may have 7 or 8. I know that the base have to always be narrow and not square or bulky. And can I pre make the handmade fans then lash them later?

[@arielrenee]

This is such a good question!! So even when I lash I don’t actually count the amount of lashes in a fan, BUT you definitely need to know an average so you know what the weight of that fan is when your looking at applying it a natural lash. While you don’t need to know if it’s 7 or 8 lashes you do need to know if it’s 4 or 8! Because that’s double the weight. So just be mindful of your fans vs your natural lashes. Use your discretion when trying to maintain the health of a lash! 💕 I hope that helps!

[@arielrenee]

Ohh and yes!! You can absolutely pre make your fans. This will totally save you time in your sets too!

[@niki.j.91]

Can you double dip the fan in the glue? If for some reason you have not enough glue on the fan after going with it through the edges of the ring

[@KK-we8si]

When you do this, by the time you get to the natural lash, won’t it be dry by then? Thank you

[@arielrenee]

I do have that problem when I use a faster drying glue. This one is 2-3 seconds and it works great for me!

[@bnrworld06]

Omg im trying this asap . Pinching IS not working for me

[@collaosgirlv8195]

Do you pre-make your fan ahead of time to creat ? Or you do your fan as go you applying on client ?

[@arielrenee]

I actually just fan as I go so I can control each fan to each natural lash

[@grecia2876]

I started lashin but i have a queatiom can we fan flat lash

[@melissayedra7730]

When you’re doing the shimmy method are you releasing pressure while moving them?

[@arielrenee]

Yes! You want to slightly release so you can have them fan!

[@yaramyahyahyasharel5975]

Do you have an suggestions on how to know which certificate classes are legit?

[@lurodiesa802]

Thank you do much for your tutorials I have learned sooo much I appreciate you❤️

[@baiharke1642]

One advice :) do you think I can make the fans before the client arrives then use it? I am afraid it won’t last too long though.

[@arielrenee]

Yess absolutely! It’ll totally help you save time and get some fan practice in! Check out tomorrow’s video I talk about storing the pre made fans!

[@toolbag5465]

Do lashes/the sticky part of the lashes matter? Because I’ve been practicing with lashes from Ali express and sometimes they just don’t work out :( I don’t want to spend so much on lashes when I’m just trying to practice

[@arielrenee]

Yess they definitely do matter! All lashed pick up differently and whatever they use to have them stick to the strip is different as well. Sometimes lower quality lashes just won’t pick up or fan properly at all. I know it sucks to spend money on the practice but I promise you it’s worth it in the long run because you’ll see a major difference!
