With step-by-step instruction and extreme close-ups, Leslie shows you how to prepare your clients, select lashes, set up your workstation, apply individual Eyelash extensions , and remove extensions. You will also learn about safety and sanitation, precautions, required supplies, available product types, client information and consent forms, eyelash growth cycle, aftercare instructions, and tips and tricks to make the application faster and more efficient.

In each volume, Graham then demonstrates full length applications. In Volume 1, Graham demonstrates how to provide three looks on models of different ethnicities (African-American, White, and Asian): a dramatic look using synthetic "C" curl extensions, a natural "bridal" look using synthetic lashes, and an elegant look with a full set of mink lashes (the "crème de la crème" of extensions). In Volume 2, she demonstrates how to provide a full set of silk colored lashes, how to use crystals to create a glam look, highlights with color using synthetic lashes, and corrective techniques using criss-cross and "Y" lashes.

Applications normally run an hour to two, depending on the number of lashes applied. The extensions last 3 to 6 weeks, following the lashes' natural cycle, then require touch-ups to maintain the enhanced lashes. Whether you want to provide extensions exclusively or as an additional service, extensions are a great return on investment with low product cost and full sets starting at $150.

"This is fine detailed work and an intricate procedure. In the end, you'll love the effect, as will your clients," says Graham. "Welcome to the eye-opening world of Eyelash extensions ."

Leslie's techniques are very professional and precise. The models look like they have naturally fabulous thick, long lashes. Leslie is a gifted educator also. Step-by-step, she explains how to do what she does so beautifully.
