4 rounds the number of times you should comb through the lashes to check for separation of the lashes and stickies Straight Tweezers tweezers used to hold the side lashes away from the main isolated lash Curved Tweezers used to isolate the lash that you will then be placing on eyelash extensions on Non broken skin first line of defense against bacteria Loose Base a blunt end of an extension that fails to bond properly with the base of the natural eyelash When working with protruding eyes, technicians should focus on thickness and not length. (T/F) true Eyelash Growth Cycle 30 to 60 days, includes anagen, catagen and telogen 3 length technique uses 3 length of extensions and corresponds to the 3 phases of natural lashes: Growth (Anagens) to short extensions Rest (Catagens) to medium extensions Shedding (Telogen) to long extensions Cornea The transparent covering over the iris and the pupil. It regenerates quickly after injury. Its purpose is to protect the lens, the anterior chamber, the iris, and other structures. It refracts light and assists in focusing. The cornea also filters ultraviolet radiation Corneal Abrasion such as a scratch or irritation to the outer layers of the cornea, happens when the tape is too high Corneal ulcer Lesion on the cornea left after an infection of or injury to the corneal epithelium Cyanoacrylate The chemical name for a certain family of fast-acting adhesives that solidify into an inert (non-reactive) polymer. This type of strong, quick-drying adhesive is used in many industries, from "liquid stitches" which close skin wounds without sewing, to industrial uses such as automotive manufacturing. There are many types of cyanoacrylate polymers and monomers. Only use medical-grade, biocompatible cyanoacrylate adhesive for eyelash extensions because it is the only type designed for use on the human body. Stye small infected bump on eyelid that is red in color and can be filled with pus, usually very painful Sterlization the mode of decontamination that destroys microorganisms, including bacterial spores Low level disinfection (100 - 200ppm) add two teaspoons household (5.25%) bleach to one gallon water. Soak 10 minutes minimum High level disinfection (1,000 ppm) add 1/3 cup household (5.25%) bleach to one-gallon water. Soak 20 minutes minimum Blood and body fluid cleanup and disinfection (5,000 ppm) add 1 and 3/4 cups household (5.25%) bleach to one gallon water. Also referred to as a 10% bleach solution Blood Exposure Incident used when you come in contact with blood at any point in the service whether that be the clients or your own every 2 years you will be required to renew your license (up to 4 times) demodex mites can cause blepharitis which can lead to madarosis (hair loss) bleach can cause damage to plastics & some metals when used incorrectly psoriasis chronic skin condition producing red lesions covered with silvery scales Conjunctiva A thin, clear, moist membrane that coats the inner surfaces of the eyelids and the outer surface of the eye. conjunctivitis an inflammation of the conjunctiva that is usually caused by an infection or allergy; also known as pinkeye. dermatits inflammation of the skin due to irritation, allergic reaction, or infection blepharitis inflammation of the eyelids characterized by redness and swelling and dried crusts. Causes can be by allergens, infections, or over-infestation of demodex mites trichiasis condition of ingrowing eyelashes that rub against the cornea, causing a constant irritation to the cornea. ectropion outward turning of the rim of the eyelid entropion causes the eyelid to fold inward and the entire line of lashes touch the cornea dry eye syndrome decreased production of tears production or composition of the three basic layers of the eye (oil, water, mucus) aftercare instructions the client should follow to protect, cleanse, moisturize, and prevent tangling of eyelash extensions. Taking proper care of lash extensions is important for both hygienic reasons as well as aesthetic reasons Anagen the active growth phase of hair within a follicle Autoclave a device used to sterilize equipment and supplies by exposing them to high-pressure saturated steam for a specific length of time Catagen A short transition stage that occurs after the anagen phase. It signals the end of the active growth of hair Under eye stickers separate the bottom lashes from the top lashes Formaldehyde a colorless gas with a sharp, suffocating odor. In solutions, it preserves biological specimens. Fabricators use it to make plastics and to bond plywood and particle board. It is toxic to humans and is known to cause cancer Long-Chain Polymer a chain composed of smaller molecular units that make up a long strand of attached monomers. A long chain of cyanoacrylate adhesive monomers, such as octyl-cyanoacrylate is made of eight monomers units. Long-chain monomers tend to be quite weak, gentle, and less durable than short-chain polymers, however they tend to be lower in fumes, odor, and irritation to skin and eyes Longevity the time between the application of a full set of eyelash extensions and when they begin to naturally shed, requiring touch-ups or full replacement Monomer a molecule that can be bonded to other identical molecules to form a polymer. Polymer a large molecule composed of repeating structural units. Cyanoacrylate glue forms a polymer when it solidifies and dries Rosacea A chronic, ongoing skin condition that affects around 10 to 15. percent of the population (mostly women). Its main symptoms are inflammation, redness, broken capillaries on the nose and cheeks and sometimes papules or pustules. Clients exhibiting signs of this disorder are much more likely to suffer reactions to eyelash extensions because they are predisposed to irritation and the possibility of ocular (eye) rosaea Short-Chain Polymers a short string of repeating molecular units (monomers) that come together when cyanoacrylate adhesive solidifies from loose monomers into a chain of linked polymers. Short-chain cyanoacrylate adhesive polymers tend to be stronger, tougher, and more durable than long-chain monomers. However, the shorter the chain, and the stronger the cyanoacrylate polymer, the more fumes it tends to produce during the process of polymerization. Long-chain cyanoacrylate polymers must be used with special care to keep eyes closed so no fumes enter the eye Viscosity the relative thickness of a liquid substance. Glue comes in varying levels of viscosity; its viscosity increases as it dries. Older bottles of lash extension adhesive will be more viscous than newly opened ones, just as a newly opened bottle of nail polish is less viscous than an older one that has been used many times 3 Components of Tears Lipid layer: top, oily layer of tears prevent the water-based layer from drying out Aqueous (water) layer: is the middle layer. Is mostly water with a small amount of salt Mucus: Mucosal layer of tears is the bottom layer, closest to the cornea and conjunctiva, mucus is mostly protein must be in balance to prevent dry-eye syndrome ocular herpes a herpes infection of the eye, usually caused by touching an infected area of the body and then touching the eye Palpebral conjunctiva inside lining of the eyelid bulbar conjunctiva is large, white area of the eye Eligibility for an operator license be at least 17 years of age Eyelash extension application training program consists of: 320 hours of classroom instruction, and pratical experience
