Viscosity - correct answer - THICKNESS of liquid substances
- as glue dries viscosity thickens & increases
Long Chain Polymer - correct answer - WEAKER
- built of smaller molecular unit
- PROS: less irritation, lower fumes & odor
- CONS: weaker, less durable
Elastomeric - correct answer - STRONGER
- has elasticity
- better than long chain polymer
Cyanoacrylate - correct answer - chemical name for family of fast acting adhesives that SOLIDIFY
into an inert (non-reactive) polymer
- only use medical grade biocompatible adhesive - designed for use on human body
- one of the main causes of irritation
Cyanoacrylate Adhesive - correct answer monomer in liquid state
-> once solidifies it becomes a polymer
Polymers - correct answer chains of single repeating units linked together by chemical bonds
(the entire pearl necklace)
Monomers - correct answer a molecule that can be bonded to other identical molecules to form
a polymer.
- repeating units
- building blocks of chain

- (the pearls on a pearl necklace)
Pearl Necklace - correct answer Pearl = Monomers
Pearl Necklace = Polymer
String = chemical bonds holding everything together
Polymerization Reaction - correct answer process in which monomers link together creating
polymer
- adding water can catalyze reaction
Formaldehyde - correct answer - colorless gas with sharp suffocating odor
- toxic to humans -> causes cancer
- a gas that can be absorbed through mucous membrane of inner eyelids
Isolation - correct answer process of keeping single NL set apart from others by tweezers
Mucous Membrane (mucosa) - correct answer - any membrane lining passages of body that
open to the outside
- ex: eyes, ears, nose, mouth
mucous membrane secrete mucous - fluid lining membranes that moisten tissue and protects
from infection
? BEST PRACTICES (7) - correct answer 1. Create positive long term results
2. Ensure Desirable Immediate Results
3. Reduce risks of adverse reactions
4. Complete quick & comfortable application for client
5. Apply maximum # of extensions in allotted time (goal = bond every lash)
, TDLR Eyelash Extension Exam
6. Spend reasonable amount of time on application
7. Do NOT damage NL
Clean Up Technique/Cleaning Up - correct answer Making sure there's no loose bases or stickies
Loose Base - correct answer end of extension failed to bond with NL
Removal Solution - correct answer liquid that dissolves eyelash adhesive
Separation Technique - correct answer needs at least 4 rounds
- critical part of delivering high quality results
- keeps lashes apart from others
- ensures every NL is free to grow and stay healthy
- ensures every lash is bonded
stuck lashes = can't grow and become damaged
- remove extension to extension, extension to NL, cluster of extensions
- helps reveal hidden NL
- helps fluff up appearance of extensions
?Alternative Technique - correct answer use of manual dying bulb to dry a wet lash
TIME CONSUMING
Dry Removal/Twist & Peel Technique - correct answer twist & peel off loose extensions
- make sure no loose unbonded bases, it can irritate clients eyes
