what is the limit of lashes to fan that will not damage our natural lashes?

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

That's a great question. This depends on a couple of factors: your natural lash thickness and health, and, the thickness of extensions you're using. So let's consider the natural lash is in great health, then if you use 0.07 thickness lash fans, you shouldn't use any more than 6 or 7 at most to create a fan. If however you're using a 0.03 thickness extension, then ou can use as many as 15 to 20 to make fans. I hope this helps you. Thanks for watching my lovely

I am a fairly new and still in training lash artist, I cannot tell you how helpful your video has been- thank you!

This helps so much, been struggling with fanning with different lash trays. Thank you!

[@msjenniferracy]

seriously!!! thank you so much. i am doing my first ever live model today and i was doing fans (okay) but i was never told that the placement of picking up the fan in the sweet spot was the key. i can finally pick it up (consistent) for the first time.

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

This is why I make videos! Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! It gives me great joy knowing I can help people out because I know what it’s like struggling and not being able to find help!

[@jaystel2381]

No way!!!! This comment is everything to me!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know because this is exactly why I do it!💖

[@Fakiha_Abdul]

How is it going?im a beginner too and not finding it easy😢

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

Please cut yourself some slack. This isn’t easy, so it will take some time to build confidence. It took me a good 5 years before I felt confident in making perfect fans every time so be patient with your attempts 💖

[@VictoriousVicky]

@@Bubbles-n-Bitches For some reason my reply didn't go through. This message came at the perfect time my dear. Thank you so much, encouragement really means a lot to me. Thanks again beautiful!

[@VictoriousVicky]

@@Fakiha_Abdul It's getting better! Had a mindset shift and remembered my why. Practicing as much as I can and giving myself grace. You can do it! I'm rooting for you!

[@LanaMarieHanlon]

I’m still finding it so hard I don’t know what I’m doing wrong 😢 the fan constantly just doesn’t stick at the bottom and falls apart but the actual fan and technique of the pinch method is good, I just can’t get the pinch to stick? xx

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

Ok in that case I think you may need to trial other brands of glue and also pay attention to how much glue you have at the base of your fan, because too much glue will actually make the fan close up the second you let go with your tweezers. Let me know how you go! Thanks for watching my lovely 🥰

[@ninaxfresagabs]

Yes I’m having this problem too! We’re you able to figure out a tip?

[@KatersWorld]

Get a humidity and temperature reader. Your room humidity needs to be around 40-60%. I live in a really dry city and I was literally crying one night because I couldn’t get my fans to stay. I would make beautiful fans, to have the glue never cure, and they’d fall apart. Got the humidity reader and turns out my room is 19%!! So I got a good humidifier and now my glue dries very quickly! Hope this helps a bit!! ❤

[@wockqueefa]

@@ninaxfresagabs i’m not sure if this is true! but i think my problem is my tweezers. you have to add even pressure when picking up the lashes

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

Yes this is true 💖

Do you wear the glasses the whole time throughout the session? Because I find moving from the client’s lashes to the tray, the magnifiers get blurry and i get headaches

[@Gemini-babykk1]

I have just done a lash course. I am having trouble with my eyesight. I can’t see how many lashes I’m picking up when making the fan and also seeing the clients lashes. I was about to throw the towel in as there is not much I can do about my eyesight but can I use the magnifying glasses for lashing as well to isolate the clients lash? Do I need a personalised prescription for these? 🙏💕

Amazing so informative!! Where did you get your magnifying glasses and what power? Do you get headaches from it? Thanks again

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

Thank you so much for your lovely comment. The link to the magnifying glasses is here: discounteyelashes.com/New-Magnifying-Glasses-for-Eyelash-Extensions-Magnifier.htm I believe the ones I use are 2x strength and yes there was a transition period of getting used to them in the beginning. You may need to adjust where you position your face/head in relation to your client's, so you can get a focus on the lashes. For me personally, I had to bring my face a little closer to the client's face and the image magnification was perfect. I hope you find the glasses as useful as I did. My lash game changed for the better after using them. Thank you so much for watching my lovely ❤ 🥰

[@jenniferlong7489]

Great video, do you dip in the glue and put straight on the clients lashes or can you pre make a bunch to use later ??

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

You can absolutely pre make your fans. The reason I choose not to is because I'm heavy-handed with my dipping and to have 2 layers of glue at the base of the fans will make them too chunky, so I just make fans as I go. Thanks for watching my lovely 🌟 💖

[@janetjose8032]

Love it

[@learnnailswithme7041]

I hope you see my question 🙏🏻 I bought a mannequin head off amazing, amd the lashes that come with it are very tough! They sound like plastic when you rub them, and when I try to pick up lashes for a fan they all fall apart? Watching these videos when you pick them up they stay stuck together. Is it because the lashes I have are SO cheap, or is it because they are individual classic lashes only and can't be made into fans?

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

When you say the lashes fall apart, do you mean as you try to place the fan on the strip lashes on the mannequin head? If so, then this could be because the lashes that come with the mannequin head are too smooth and plastic-y. Try holding your fan in place a little longer before letting go, or, try adding primer to the mannequin lashes to see if that helps with adhesion. Hope this helps. If you have any more questions, please let me know. Thanks for watching my lovely ❤ 🥰

[@learnnailswithme7041]

@@Bubbles-n-Bitches yes I think thats the issue too. They're so cheap and plastic. So when I come to pinch to make a fan nothing happens.. its strange because nobody mentioned this on the amazon reviews and said they are good. thank you so much! Now I know to buy some more expensive ones. Thank u again x

Hey they might be classic lashes. I know I had this one trying to pinch and fan and realized they are classics.

[@learnnailswithme7041]

@@NurseB1122 hi 👋 yeah they are classics😅 But I thought that's how you made fans? Getting a cluster of single lashes.

[@NurseB1122]

Yes but the classic lashes are just meant for one lash so they don’t fan. Look up volume lash trays and there are easy fans and regular volume trays and that will probably help ☺️

How long between putting on a lash to making another one, is a good amount of time?

[@Bubbles-n-Bitches]

Well once you place a fan on the the natural lash, you have to wait about 5-8 seconds before letting go, and then anywhere between 5-30seconds to make your new one. Hope this helps. 💖
