BENEFITS OF COLORED LASH EXTENSIONS
Express yourself and stand out
One of the biggest benefits of colored lash extensions is the ability to express your unique style and personality. Whether you're looking to make a statement or simply want to add a touch of color to your everyday look, these extensions are a fun and versatile option.
Makes your eyes pop
Another benefit is that they can make your eyes appear brighter and more vibrant. They can also add depth and dimension to a traditional lash set, making the eyes look more dramatic and alluring. Additionally, colored lashes are a great way to showcase your creativity and stand out in a crowded market.
Adds excitement to your make up look
In addition to their aesthetic appeal, colored lash extensions are also a great choice for those who want a low-maintenance beauty routine. They add some excitement and fun to your look without having to go overboard with your makeup. Unlike traditional makeup, which needs to be reapplied throughout the day, lash extensions can last for several weeks with proper care and maintenance.
Premium offering
Colored lashes are indeed a premium offering that can make your eyelashes stand out from the rest. While some lash artists may not offer colored lashes, those who do can provide you with a unique and personalized look that is sure to turn heads. Taking the time to apply colored lash extensions properly can be a more time-consuming process than traditional extensions. By charging a little more for colored lashes, you can ensure that you're compensating for the extra time and effort required.

Ehance their natural eye color
When working with colored lashes, it's important to choose the right color for your client's skin tone and eye color. For example, blue and green lashes look great on people with brown eyes, while purple and pink lashes complement those with green or hazel eyes. It's also important to consider the occasion and the client's personal style when choosing a color.

Recently, there has been a trend of matching the color of lash extensions to the hair color, especially when the hair is dyed a vibrant shade such as red or blue. This can create a cohesive and eye-catching look.
Add it to the outer corner
By adding some colored lash extensions to the outer corner of your eyes, create a subtle yet striking pop of color that's perfect for everyday wear. This is perfect for the natural girlies who don't want to overwhelm your eyes with too much color, so you can focus on adding just a few extensions to the outer corner of each eye.
Add it to the bottom or top layer
If you're looking for a way to create an ombre effect, then adding them to the bottom or top layer only is a great option. You can do this by placing an eyepad on top of their natural lashes and using your tweezer, take out their top layer lashes. Or your can use tape to tape back all their natural lashes and then take out their bottom layer of lashes. This will also help make it easier for you with your isolation!
