Eyelash curler - a languid look with three tweezers. How to use an eyelash curler

09.09.2019

To create a beautiful bend on the eyelashes, there are many various means. Popular perm in the salon, which provides lasting effect. But, as you know, it harms the hairs. They become thinner, become brittle, often fall out. Safer, easier to use and more affordable are eyelash curlers, which are also called curlers. Due to its simplicity, the device can be used by everyone. You just need to follow some rules.

Outwardly, the forceps resemble nail scissors with a special clip instead of a cutting part. There are models equipped with removable elastic bands that can be replaced if they are damaged. When curling, one edge of the clip is applied to upper eyelid, and the second - presses the cilia. At the bottom there is rubber that protects the hairs from injury.

Curler for eyelash curler is produced in 3 versions:

clip in the form of a clothespin;
rectangular fixture with a falling curtain;
scissor device.

Most often, girls choose the latter option, as the most convenient. This form of forceps allows you to securely fix the eyelashes and reduces the risk of injury. The design of curlers provides for the presence of a curved window, which anatomically repeats the shape of the eyelid. Rubber pads protect lashes from mechanical damage during fixation. The twisting effect and curved shape is provided by the pressure generated by the edges of the forceps.

Curlers are made of metal or durable plastic. Allocate the following types eyelash curler:

Mechanical forceps with a spring prevent too strong compression and, consequently, damage to the eyelashes. They are suitable for inexperienced users. The disadvantage of such a curler is a short service life. The main reason for this is the gradual weakening of the spring, which begins to periodically fall out of the device.
Electric tongs are used in the same way as mechanical ones, but unlike them, they are subject to preheating from the mains.
Plastic tongs can even be used to curl previously colored eyelashes. But due to the inconvenience of the design, the effect is weakly pronounced.
Metal curler is the most popular option. Its main advantages are a long service life, a gentle effect on the cilia and structural strength. But they cannot curl dyed hairs.

The metal curler will last longer and provide optimal compression force.

How to choose tweezers?

When choosing tweezers, you should not focus on the prestige of the brand and the price of the device. Special attention should be given to the quality and reliability of fixing the rubber gasket between the clamps. It is worth refusing to buy if it does not hold well or staggers. The rubber gasket should feel firm and elastic to the touch.

If you plan to curl your eyelashes daily, it is best to purchase a device with spare rubber gaskets. Since with frequent use they quickly fail. A deep dent appears on the gasket, the rubber gradually becomes thinner, exposing the metal structure. The use of such forceps is no longer safe, as the risk of injury to the cilia increases.

If there is a need to apply a curler after applying mascara, then it would be right to choose one that is made of plastic. But when we are talking about convenience, then you should opt for a metal product.

For beginners, it is better to curl with a curler on a spring, which will prevent pinching of the hairs and keep them intact.

How to use an eyelash curler:

The curler is fixed so that the upper row of eyelashes is in the window. In this case, the edges of the forceps should be at the base of the hairs, but not in contact with the mucous membrane. This will avoid pinching the eyelid.
After the lashes are securely fixed in correct position, you should carefully, but with some effort, squeeze the levers so that the upper and lower edges of the curler are closed. In this case, the hairs are bent upward.
Fix the hairs in a bent state for a couple of seconds.
After that, the clamp is slightly loosened and the forceps are moved 1-2 mm up without removing the cilia.
Fix the hairs and squeeze them for 2 seconds.
Again move the clamp a little higher.
The procedure is carried out three times, squeezing and twisting the cilia in different places.
After the hairs acquire a beautiful bend, they can be covered with mascara.

If the eyelashes are very long, then the procedure is slightly different. The hairs are sequentially processed, clamping them three times in the direction from the roots to the ends. Each time they stand for at least 10-15 seconds.

If the cilia are short enough, then 3 clips are done only at the roots. It is important not to overdo it so that the curl does not turn out too twisted. The clamping force can only be determined empirically. It is worth looking at the eyelashes before and after curling to understand what effect you need to achieve.

1. It is desirable to curl eyelashes before applying mascara. Otherwise, they will stick together, break and fall out. The result can be disastrous.

2. Before using the curler, you should wash your face and wait until the cilia are completely dry. Otherwise, the hairs will straighten out very quickly. They shouldn't have cosmetics, tonal basis.

4. Visually enlarge the eyes and open the look helps curling from the base of the hairs.

5. The curler must be thoroughly cleaned by removing the nozzles and rinsing them under running water. Dirt and germs often accumulate under them.

6. Do not paint the bend itself with ink. It is better to start applying cosmetics from the middle of the hairs. Then the curl will not straighten ahead of time. Hide unpainted roots will help cosmetic pencil, which is applied to the interciliary zone.

7. Curling light eyelashes looks unrepresentative. Therefore, it is recommended to first paint them with a special composition.

8. Do not apply too much mascara to the ends of the cilia, as this makes them heavier, and the curl will straighten out faster.

9. For additional fixation on the eyelashes, it is advisable to use hairspray. You can not spray it directly from the can. Apply a little varnish on the fingers and process the hairs with twisting movements.

10. If the hairs are straightened, then you need to run a hot spoon over them. The bend should return.

11. After curling with tongs, it is advisable not to visit places with high humidity - saunas, baths, swimming pools, fitness rooms. Otherwise, the bend will disappear very quickly.

12. If electric tweezers are used, then you need to strictly monitor the time so as not to burn the cilia.

13. After curling, it is better to use thick mascara with keratin and resins, with a curling effect and good fixation.

14. Achieve beautiful effect curling the central part of the cilia in the direction of their growth will help, and at the outer edge - to the temples.

Now it is understood how to properly curl eyelashes with forceps. Curler helps to give the hairs extra length, volume and splendor. And those whose eyelashes are too straight by nature will be able to get a beautiful curl. The look at the same time becomes more expressive, open and attractive.

Hello everyone, friends!

How are you? How was Black Friday? Did you manage to buy the necessary goods? Or maybe you ignore such promotions? I usually take discounts more calmly, I don’t believe it for sure. But having received an SMS on the phone from a retail store Korean cosmetics in her city and, having learned about 50% discounts, she succumbed to herd instinct and ran for her favorite products.

But that is not all. Over the weekend, I decided to review my lockers, throw out the unnecessary, and hope to find something interesting. I still discovered something - eyelash curlers, which I bought 2 years ago. You can say I just forgot about them, but this thing works if everything is done correctly.

How to use an eyelash curler at home? I will try to answer this question in this article. And I’ll also tell you about the types of this accessory, prices, its advantages and disadvantages, about the choice and other nuances.

Girls at all times sought to make their eyelashes thicker and longer, when there was no mascara yet, they curled them with hot nails or hot spoons. Beauty is a terrible force! I wouldn’t dare for anything, because in this way you can lose the last eyelashes or accidentally get into the eye.

Now everything is easier. Somewhere in the middle of the last century, special eyelash curlers were invented, which made life easier for women and made them much more attractive. After all, a look with a bewitching curve of eyelashes has always been considered more seductive and gave its owner femininity and sophistication.

Do you know what eyelash curlers are actually called? Curler! Is that curlers in English? Yes?

This remedy is for those who by nature have straight and downward looking lashes, and for all the fair sex who don't get mascara and want more curl in their lashes. Beautiful open look the best decoration girls!

Nowadays, you can curl your eyelashes with:

Mechanical tweezers.

They look like small scissors. Their upper part consists of two plates that exactly repeat the shape of the eye, and a spring that allows you to clamp the eyelashes.

I have exactly those. Firstly, they are very easy to use, secondly, they practically do not harm the eyelashes, and thirdly, they are safer for the eyes. Among the shortcomings can be called the time for their application.

Electric tweezers.

This type, as you might guess from the name, works only on electricity: from a direct source or from a battery. So far, I have only been able to test thermal tongs in a beauty salon with a make-up artist. Previously, they were considered professional, but now anyone can purchase them.

Heated tongs can also be different, some operate on the principle of mechanical, that is, by clamping the eyelashes between the plates, while others work like a curling iron.

Such accessories reduce the time for curling, the result from them is more long-lasting, although the makeup artist who did my makeup said that it is better to use two devices at once in turn, then the effect will last much longer.

But the trouble lies elsewhere often cannot be used., because due to their thermal effect, they can damage the cilia, especially if the heating temperature is too high. Well, of course, you can use them only if you have electricity, but this is not a problem in our time.

But for overhead there are special plastic-coated curling irons for eyelashes, but now in stores you can also find electric options that are suitable for both artificial and natural cilia.

What to look for when choosing tongs?

Now many people buy goods via the Internet, and they rely primarily on reviews written both in the store itself and on other services with recommendations. Some make their choice based on the price and the brand, this is also true, because a quality product is more expensive, but sometimes you can find an analogue cheaper, but in no way inferior to the branded one.

I think many people know that well-known American and European brands invest a decent part of their money in advertising.

But how to choose tongs in a regular store and what should be considered when purchasing this accessory, I will explain further.

If you choose electric tongs, then give up tongs that are very hot, the temperature of 40 degrees is considered the most optimal. This way you can keep your eyelashes healthy, otherwise the heat can be harmful to them, the eyelashes can become brittle, dull and lifeless.
When choosing a mechanical accessory, make sure it has rubber (silicone) tips. Some firms even put in a couple of spares, this good sign, after all, such a manufacturer takes care of its customers. If these rubber bands deteriorate, then you can easily change them at home, saving on the purchase of a new full-fledged accessory.
AND last tip. Hold the tweezers themselves in your hands, see if they are comfortable, do not slip out of your fingers, are they easy to squeeze and unclench. The metal version will last longer than the plastic one. There are handles with rings, and there are without them, everyone is comfortable in different ways.

How is the curling process going?

The best instructor for you can be your mother or grandmother. After all, as I said, this device has been used since the last century. And perhaps your older generation actively used this accessory to improve their image. Do not believe, but you ask!

Well, for those who have not found an adviser, but really want to know how to curl eyelashes with a curler, I suggest studying the following instructions, which walks you through the steps of using this accessory step by step.

It is especially useful for beginners, because if the forceps are used incorrectly, you can remain without eyelashes. I'm exaggerating, of course, but there are some points you need to know.

First you need to wash your face, because you only need to curl your eyelashes clean, fat-free. If you apply makeup, do it before using the eyelash curler. This can be sequentially or selectively:, shadows, eyeliner, pencil. But no mascara yet! Although you may not need it at all.
If you use the electric version, then do not forget to turn on the device and wait for it to heat up, usually the indicator is intended for this. Mechanical tongs must first be warmed up a little, under hot water or blow dryer.
Go to the mirror, take the accessory and fix the eyelashes with it, for this you need to place the forceps near the base of the eyelash growth so that they fall into the space between the plates. Then squeeze the device, but be careful not to damage upper eyelid.
At this point, the eyelashes should rise up, stay in this position for a couple of seconds. Then loosen your grip a little and move the forceps a little up, literally 2 mm, and fix the eyelashes again for 2 seconds. Then again loosen and slide the device, fix it. And so you should get 3 times. If the eyelashes do not curl at the outer edge of the eye, then they can be worked out separately.
You can try not to move the forceps, but just fix the eyelashes for a few seconds and release. But previous version will allow you to extend the result and will allow you to get rid of an ugly crease.
Now you can use mascara, only you will have to apply it not from the growth of eyelashes, but mostly closer to the tips, since if you use mascara on the very bend, then consider that all your work has gone down the drain. Then you can still go through the eyelashes with electric tweezers (curling iron).

Well, that's all, try, train, do not be afraid, but be careful in moderation!

I advise you to watch an excellent video, in which everything is explained in detail and shown.

For hygiene purposes, do not forget to clean the device, for this you can use an alcohol wipe.
Never use tongs over mascara, as this breaks them off. I was so eager to try that I started using this device without reading the instructions, for which I paid.
If you are in a hurry, then it is better to get by with one mascara, since using forceps is not the fastest thing. Although with daily practice the skill increases.
But experts do not advise using this accessory all the time, as over time it can adversely affect the eyelashes.
Do not use tongs in high humidity or wind, so pay attention to the weather conditions outside the window.

This concludes the article. If you haven't tried eyelash curlers yet, I highly recommend you do so. The result will not make you wait long. There are models that are not expensive at all, the price for them is about 100 rubles. There are more expensive - about 300-400. The cost of electric tongs can also be different, I met both for 250 and for several thousand.

I want to change my accessory, because the rubber is slightly damaged. Every day I will not twist my eyelashes, as mascara is enough for me. But on holidays - why not?

Seductive look! See you!

Eyelash curlers, having appeared at the end of the twentieth century, were very fond of the then fashionistas, who quickly appreciated the advantages that this ingenious invention gave.

In contact with

The fact is that not every girl received fluffy and long eyelashes as a gift from nature. Far from all the fair sex, they have a beautiful natural curve. Most often, the eyelids are pubescent with either sparse and weak hairs, or thick, but completely straight cilia.

Using an eyelash curler can give the hairs the desired shape, thanks to which the look becomes deeper and more open, and the eyes are expressive and attractive.

Perm eyelashes and curling tongs: what to prefer?

Modern fashionistas can influence the shape of their cilia in two radical ways: use tweezers to curl or perform salon procedure eyelash perm. What are the main differences between these manipulations?

According to the degree of injury, the perm procedure is big threat for the health of eyelashes, rather than a simple mechanical curling with tweezers. The reason for this is the use of rather aggressive chemicals, the impact of which leads not only to a change in the structure, but also to dehydration of the treated hairs.

Permed lashes become thinner, weaker and more prone to premature loss.

Compared with forceps, the result created by perm, is quite resistant and longer: cilia, treated with a special composition, will retain their captivating curve for a whole month.

The tweezers will create short-term effect: curled eyelashes will delight their owner for no more than a day.

Do I need to expose my cilia to such manipulations? Each girl is looking for the answer to this question on her own.

How eyelash curlers work

The purpose of the tweezers is to curl the hairs that make up the eyelashes. Opening the forceps, carefully place these hairs between the semicircles. Having closed them, slightly pull the cilia up, and then release.

Criteria for choosing an eyelash curler

Since eyelash curling is a very delicate matter, the choice of a quality device should be taken very seriously. When using the tool inadequate quality or if you violate the rules for working with it, you can simply lose your eyelashes.

A defective appliance is quite capable of cutting fragile hairs. It will take a long time to grow new eyelashes.

How to choose a safe and high-quality eyelash curler?

The blades of the device should move freely and smoothly, without unpleasant grinding sounds.

Of great importance the quality of the sealing rubber gasket lining the base of the lower semicircle of the forceps. It should be made of a fairly dense, almost rigid material, since the clarity of the future bend and prevention depend on this. unwanted effect wrinkled eyelashes. There should be no defects or damage on the surface of the gum.

The fixation of the rubber gasket must be impeccable: the rubber must neither stagger nor slide in the recess allotted to it. Having found a similar defect, you should turn your attention to another device.

At frequent use the rubber parts of the device wear out already at the end of the third month of operation. From the constant pressure of metal semicircles on the surface of the rubber, deep dents are formed, which, becoming thinner, after a while expose the metal base of the device.

The use of such a device poses a serious danger to the cilia, since it may not curl, but crumple or break them. The way out of this situation can be either replacing worn gaskets, or buying a new fixture.

Types of eyelash curlers

1. Most often on the windows of cosmetic stores you can find tweezers made metal. They are quite comfortable, strong and durable.

2. Recently, manufacturers have begun to offer models plastic tweezers. Just like their metal counterparts, they are able to give the cilia a beautiful and expressive bend. Their advantages include the possibility of curling already tinted eyelashes (in the case of using metal devices, this is completely impossible). However, as the reviews of the girls who used such devices showed, they are not very convenient to use. Therefore, if there is a choice at the time of purchase, it is best to prefer metal tweezers.

3. Quite often on the shelves of cosmetic stores can be found spring-loaded tweezers. The spring is designed to control the compression force of the semicircles, thereby preventing the undesirable possibility of too strong impact on eyelashes.

It is assumed that such tweezers are safer for fragile cilia. However, such models have a serious drawback: they often fail (as a rule, springs fall out of them).

And here classic models, devoid of springs, have a well-deserved reputation for being more convenient and trouble-free in operation.

Basic principles of working with eyelash curlers

How to use eyelash curler? Following our recommendations will allow you to do it correctly and without the slightest harm to vulnerable hairs.

You can not curl already tinted eyelashes: a dense layer of mascara makes them brittle and not elastic enough. In addition, painted eyelashes can stick to the semicircles of the forceps, as a result of which the device can lead to injury, deformation and tearing of hairs.
It is almost impossible to curl wet eyelashes: despite the efforts made, their hairs will quickly lose their curl.
Eyelashes must be completely dry before curling.
If the curling procedure is planned immediately after morning washing, you can thoroughly dry the hairs on the eyelids by wiping them with a terry cloth or cotton swab.

If heat the semicircles of the tweezers before the curling process, you can achieve a longer and best effect. This can be done by dipping the device in hot water for a couple of seconds or by placing it under a hot air jet coming from a hair dryer.

How to curl eyelashes using tweezers?

To fix a freshly made perm, you should use only thick consistency mascara: the use of a liquid one will help to straighten curled eyelashes too quickly.

There is a strong belief that daily eyelash curling is extremely harmful to their fragile and delicate hairs. However, experienced experts argue that it is not the procedure itself that causes damage, but the wrong and inept curling technique, as well as the use of forceps to clamp tinted eyelashes.

Finishing the story about the use of curling irons, we want to remind you of the need to strengthen the cilia. To do this, it is enough to lubricate them regularly. a small amount healing castor oil, best before leaving for a night's rest.

How to use eyelash curler?

When he first saw eyelash curlers, one of my acquaintances immediately recognized them as a miniature instrument of torture, and, having found out exactly what this instrument was created for, he was deeply shocked. It is worth noting that many of the fair sex, knowing what eyelash curlers are and why they are, do not feel much sympathy for them and are very wary. Meanwhile, eyelash curlers were very popular at the end of the 20th century; and even now, with a wide selection of curling brush mascaras, real fashionistas should try using a curling iron. With careful and proper handling the instrument of torture will turn into a magical instrument of beauty, and your gaze beautiful eyes with coquettishly curled eyelashes will be open and bewitching.
1. Do not rush to curl your eyelashes when you are late or have little time. Especially if you are doing this for the first or second time in your life. Be careful and attentive, do not rush, so as not to grab the cilia unevenly with the forceps, do not pull your hand and, inadvertently, pinching the cilia at their base, do not grab the upper eyelid.
2. Curl eyelashes with tongs only BEFORE applying mascara. It is very important. Mascara after application already fixes the shape of the eyelashes, so they become more brittle and fragile, after which the mechanical effect on them is highly undesirable.
3. Before use, place the eyelash curler under hot water or hot air from your hair dryer for just a few seconds.

4. Eyelashes are curled, gently pinching them with forceps several times for a while, do it from the base, then slightly shifting upward along the growth of the eyelashes. This method will give a more natural and lasting curl than a long single capture of the eyelashes.

5. Keep an eye on your eyelash curler. good tongs you will almost certainly use it for several years, but do not forget to check if the rubber layer has moved or is not damaged. In the event of such a trouble, you can pinch the eyelashes by moving them, or cut them off with metal. If, nevertheless, such a nuisance occurs, then try not to worry, it is unpleasant, but not catastrophically, the eyelashes will quickly grow back and recover. Try to be careful and careful.
The stiffer the elastic in the tongs, the better the bend is fixed. After curling, apply mascara, a good choice of curl-supporting mascara or waterproof mascara, as it holds the created shape well. It is quite obvious that long eyelashes- the key to a more noticeable effect after curling, so do not forget to take care of them. The active growth of eyelashes is promoted, for example, by the use of castor oil, periodically gently wipe the eyelashes with it. It is best to do this at night. More about the intensity of eyelash growth and care for them:
Not every woman is satisfied with her eyelashes. Someone's eyelashes are short, someone's rare, someone's straight. If in the first and second case you can use false eyelashes, then in the third option you can make eyelash curling.
If you wear makeup every day and you just need to draw attention to your eyes, then it is better to use a perm in the salon, but you can also curl your eyelashes with special tongs.
Eyelash curler
Use an eyelash curler first, then apply mascara. Otherwise, the eyelashes may break. You can curl eyelashes like a fan: the central part of the eyelashes scrolls up, and at the outer edge of the eye sideways, towards the temple. It is recommended to curl short lashes in one place, making three tweezers at the base, and long ones also three tweezers along the length. If you squeeze the forceps too hard, then the look can turn out to be doll-like and a little naive.
How to use eyelash curler:
The first thing you need to understand is that eyelash curling takes time. Therefore, it is better not to get down to business at all if you are in a hurry and do makeup on hastily. You need to do a curl carefully, just getting into the right place and withstand fixation. So, either slowly and thoughtfully, or not at all.
Further, the eyelash curler is recommended to be heated before use. You need to heat up, in fact, the rubber parts. Do this under running hot water or under a hair dryer. It is not necessary to heat it up strongly, through negligence, you can damage the eyelid, and high temperatures we don't need anything. Just hold them for a few seconds hot water or warm air.
You also need to know how to curl your eyelashes. First, fix the forceps at the very roots of the eyelashes, squeeze the staples and hold for 7-10 seconds. This is the most crucial moment. If you are using the eyelash curler for the first time, pinch the eyelashes slowly - you should feel how close to the eyelid you can bring them so as not to pinch the skin.
Next, we have to clamp the eyelashes 2-3 more times.
If you have long lashes, we clamp three times along the length, each next time closer to the tips of the eyelashes. Don't forget to endure due time and dispense strength.
In fact, if the tweezers are of high quality with a good rubber gasket, you are unlikely to be left without eyelashes, but it is quite possible to overdo it with a bend. However, after a couple of warm-up attempts, you will already be doing the procedure quite confidently.
Now let's talk about short eyelashes. They also need to be pressed several times. But here stylists advise to do it not in length (you won’t run away much), but to make three tweezers at the very roots of the eyelashes.
Once your lashes are curled, you can apply mascara. Mascara, by the way, is always recommended to be applied after curling, and not before. Firstly, after applying mascara, the eyelashes lose their elasticity, they are easier to break. Secondly, judging by my own experience, even if you let the mascara dry well, the eyelashes will still stick together after curling.
Don't forget to take care of your eyelash curler. They need to be cleaned regularly, looking into the rubber gaskets (there may be eyelashes, dust and much more), sometimes they are washed.
Rubber seals are best inspected carefully each time before using the tongs for damage. Make sure that the coating does not deteriorate, move or expose the metal.
And of course, do not forget to take care of your eyelashes. Eyelash curlers are a gentle method, but still cause some damage to the eyelashes. Therefore, try not to use them very often or let your eyelashes rest.
I curl before applying mascara
I just don't get much use from them.

Currently, there are many procedures for curling hairs. Eyelash curlers to this day remain in demand among the beautiful half of the population. Due to the design of the device, the tightening procedure is not particularly difficult. There is a lot of controversy that forceps adversely affect the condition of the eyelashes. Professional massage therapists say the opposite: it is not the device itself that harms, but the inability to use it correctly.

Pros of using forceps

the volume of eyelashes appears noticeably in a short period of time;
of all available technologies, this one does not cause any harm;
following all the recommendations, daily use is possible;
the applied method of curling with tongs is several times cheaper than existing procedures.

Cons of using forceps

with inept use of the device, the eyelashes may crumble or become brittle;
at high humidity and strong wind, the effect of curling is reduced.

Choosing a curling iron

When working with eyelash curling, it is worth approaching the procedure responsibly, since the process requires delicacy. Do not purchase the device in dubious stalls, use high-quality and proven products.
If the forceps are defective, you risk cutting off the hairs. In the future, eyelashes will cause a lot of problems in their restoration.
Before carrying out the procedure at home, it is recommended to go with a friend to professional salon beauty. You can visually gain experience, as the master curls the eyelashes.
Before buying a tool, familiarize yourself with its design. Take the tongs, make a few clicks. In this case, the hemispheres should not create any grinding sounds. good device works easily without any extra effort.
When choosing forceps, compare different samples with each other. Pay attention to the silicone layer on the lower hemisphere. This attribute should not be too soft, this will save you from wrinkling your eyelashes and giving an unnecessary shape.
Inspect the tool carefully, it should not have glue particles and other similar defects. Pay attention to the fact that when squeezing the crescents, the silicone layer does not change shape and does not wobble.
At daily use forceps, choose a tool with additional replaceable elements (silicone rubber bands). With frequent use, they wear out in 2 months, after which the operation of the device will only harm the hairs.

Curling irons: types

Mechanical tongs. This type includes devices with the presence of a spring in them. It prevents strong compression. This option is provided for inexperienced users to avoid damaging the hairs. The disadvantage of such forceps is considered short term services. The reason is the weakening of the spring and its frequent loss from the device.
Plastic tongs. This type tongs is a novelty among other devices. The difference lies in the fact that with such a tool it is possible to curl colored eyelashes. The downside is the inconvenience of the design. IN end result curling hairs is not the way we would like.
Metal tongs. This type of instrument is considered classic and more common. The advantages of forceps are considered to be long service life, gentle treatment of hairs, strength. Negative side tool is only that they cannot curl colored eyelashes.

The principle of operation of forceps

The bottom section resembles nail scissors with identical finger holes. Depending on the design features, the upper part has springs or levers.
Any tool, except for plastic, has two volumetric crescents. When compressed, they tightly close together.
The lower crescent is a long recess with a silicone layer to protect the eyelashes from mechanical damage.
The upper part of the hemisphere has a similar recess of the same length. When the two sections are closed, a peculiar design is obtained, between which the hairs are enclosed.
This tool is only used for curling eyelashes. By placing the hairs between the hemispheres, they are closed. The device itself is pulled up, holding for a while, then the eyelashes are released.

Close your eyes so that you can better see the upper eyelid. Bring tongs to it, opening the hemispheres. Eyelashes should be located between the roundness of the device. Carefully follow the process without pinching the skin of the eyelid.
Do not be nervous, do not let your hands shake. When you are convinced that such behavior is unusual for you, proceed to clamping your eyelashes. Raising your hand up, hold the instrument in this position for 5-6 seconds. Do not pinch the forceps too hard, this will cause unnatural curling of the hairs. Do the procedure a total of 3 times. Remove the device, look at the result.
The next step is to transfer the tool to average length eyelashes. Repeat the above steps in the same way. After that, proceed to complete the manipulation of curling the ends in a similar way.
Use thick mascara, it will help to maintain fixation. Do not use liquid type cosmetics, such a move will lead to a quick straightening of the hairs. If you do not have this kind of mascara, use a thick eyebrow gel, apply the composition to the eyelashes with a brush.

Focus on the first do-it-yourself perm procedure. Take your time, haste will lead to deplorable and irreparable results. Eyelash restoration will take a lot of time.
The procedure should be carried out before applying mascara. If you use a plastic device for eyelash curling, this recommendation is also relevant for him. Since the ongoing manipulation adversely affects the colored hairs, making them brittle and weak.
Before each use, treat the cosmetic device with boiling water. This will help to disinfect it and wash off the remaining particles of cosmetics.
Do not neglect silicone layers. If necessary, replace old samples with new ones. Keep an eye on the condition of the forceps themselves, with proper care, the risk of cutting eyelashes at the root will disappear.
To avoid brittleness and hair loss with daily use of curling irons, it is recommended to take a break of 5-7 days. If the hairs have not recovered during this time, extend the rest for a few more days.
While using the eyelash curler, nourish the hairs natural oils every 5 days. The composition is applied immediately before bedtime.
The curling technique is always carried out in 3 stages - from the base to the tips. The length of the eyelashes does not matter in this case. Squeezing the hairs should not exceed 5 seconds, so the shape will be more like a natural one.

If you decide to do your own eyelash curling, first get a quality device. Familiarize yourself with the accessories of the tongs. Pay attention to the softness of the silicone rubber. When carrying out the procedure, do not rush, so you will avoid a long hair restoration. With daily use of the tool, take a break once a month, feed the hairs with oil.
