What is the advised distance to keep the extension from the eyelid?

The advised distance to keep the extension from the eyelid is at least 1mm. This guideline is essential for several reasons, primarily focusing on the health and comfort of the client. Maintaining this distance helps to prevent any irritation or discomfort that can occur if the extensions are placed too close to the eyelid. If the extensions touch the eyelid, they may cause friction, leading to potential irritation, allergic reactions, or even contribute to the development of infections due to bacterial growth in that sensitive area.

Additionally, ensuring that there is this specific distance allows for natural movement of the eyelashes, preventing the extensions from pulling on the natural lashes. This consideration not only promotes the longevity of the eyelash extensions but also supports the overall health of the client's natural lashes. It's crucial for technicians to adhere to this standard distance to provide a safe and comfortable experience for their clients.
