Patch Test for Hybrid Lashes

I had a patch test yesterday for Hybrid Lashes as I’m getting them done next week, it burnt as soon as she put it on then now this is 24+ plus afterwards. Is this an allergic reaction or a burn, do you still think would I still be okay to get them done?

i need your help

i just got these lashes and i HATE em. she told me to wait 2-3 days for them to look better but it’s just not even what i asked for. the 2nd pic is the inspo pic,and it’s a set that SHE posted. also,i don’t really know what to do because my bf payed for these and now i feel bad cause i wasted his money :(

Any ideas what the cause might be?

Edit: as an update to this, at like 3am I ended up going through the lashes 1 by 1 and lifting/pulling 2 off of my right eye and 1 off of my left eye. My eyes are still red this morning but starting to look and feel a lot better. I’m thinking it was a couple being too close to the lash line and scraping/poking my eyes.

I had lash extensions for over 2 years, took a couple years break and then recently started having them done again. My old lash tech no longer does lashes so I started seeing a new tech. I had 0 issues with my initial lashes but the fill that I just had zone like 1.5 days ago caused some irritation. Anyone seen anything like this? It’s both my left & my right eye, bottom halves only and more irritated on the outer corners.

I don’t think it’s an allergy or intolerance of the glue since I’ve had them by this same tech just a couple weeks ago and since it’s only the bottom half of my eyes.

During the appointment I noticed some light scratching/stabbing/hurting in those areas when she was putting them on. Could it be from the tape or from them being put on too close to my lash line?

Also what would yall do? Not say/do anything and hope they go away eventually? Eye drops? Is there anything the lash tech can do if I reach out?

They are randomly watery, I’ve had a lot more eye boogies since and my bottom eye/eyelids hurt to blink/when I touch the surrounding area.

Modern cluster recreation

It’s been a very long time since I’ve tried anything remotely trendy (since being scarred from the initial anime lashes craze 😆) but today I actually had fun recreating this set my new client showed me. How can I get it closer to the inspo? My client’s natural lashes have neutral growth direction with a nice curve. I used cc curl 8-11mm 4d fans for the base layer, light spike sections of 10-11-13-15mm then sprinkled 8-9mm c curl fairy lashes throughout.

Help me find these eyelashes!

A former MAC makeup artist used them on me a while ago. I LOVED how they looked on me, but can't find a match to buy.

Any ideas??? They are Short, curly and fluffy. Helppppp!!!!

new lash tech did the opposite of what i wanted

i like to get lash extensions and have been going to the same lash tech for about a year. she does a wonderful job with my extensions and did almost exactly what i wanted but it wasn't exact (i kept asking if she could make them a little fuller than she usually did and she would say okay and then never did).

i decided to find someone else to do my lashes so that i could have what i asked for. i found a girl in my town and she was so sweet and had a lot of great reviews and her work looked really good and she even had photos up of exactly what i wanted done. i went to my appointment this morning and i was there for three hours. i have never sat for more than one and a half so i was very hopeful. and when she showed me what she did i was very disappointed to say the least. i asked for short full cateye style extensions and she gave me long FULL (very dense) almost manga style extensions ?

i didn't want to be rude so i said i liked them, paid and left a tip, and got out of there.

i know she will follow up with me and ask how theyre holding up and will also follow up for a fill in appointment but i honestly do not want to go back. she and i are now mutuals on instagram, should i just go ghost and block her? should i tell her i lied and that i don't actually like them? i don't want to be mean as this took a long time and they aren't BAD they just arent what i asked for and are completely not my style.

help please💔

In a dilemma— I’m not sure if I am just being picky or over analyzing the photo too much. I asked for cateye and my tech recommended babydoll for my eye shape/size. I agreed and I do love them but something is….. off. Maybe more tapered? Less length? Help!!

How is it in NC?

Good morning everyone! I am thinking of moving to Charlotte, NC. I do lashes here in Jersey and im wondering how the lash community is in north carolina. Are there a lot of people who get their lashes done? Do you find it cheap or expensive? I currently charge $100 for a full set and $75 for a refill. Do people get natural lash extentions or mostly volume? Thank you in advance🤍
