    Essential Accessories for Eyelash Glue Maintenance

    As a Lash Tech, you understand just how important your glue is for creating flawless sets, whether you're doing classic extensions, hybrid lashes, or volume styles. No matter if you're working with classic lashes, wispy styles, or any other look, maintaining your glue in top condition is essential for ensuring your clients enjoy long-lasting results. To make that easier, we’ve put together a list of must-have accessories that every Lash Technician should keep in their kit.

    Lash Glue Shaker: Save Time, Mix Perfectly

    If your lash glue isn’t performing well, it’s probably because the ingredients haven’t been mixed properly. Over time, the ingredients in your eyelash glue separate, and unless you shake it well before use, it won’t work its magic on your lash extensions—whether you're doing classic eyelash extensions or volume lashes. 

    You could shake it manually, but it’s time-consuming and tough on your wrists. That’s where a Lash Glue Shaker comes in handy! It quickly mixes your lash glue in just 15 seconds, using centrifugal force to ensure it’s perfectly blended. This also helps prevent the nozzle from clogging, which is common when you shake the glue by hand. Whether you're working on classic lashes or more intricate styles like wispy lashes, using a Lash Glue Shaker ensures you’re always ready to go.

    Control Your Lash Room with a Hygrometer & Thermometer

    Creating the perfect set of eyelash extensions—whether it’s classic, hybrid lashes, or volume lashes—requires knowing your lash room’s humidity and temperature levels. A Digital Hygrometer and Thermometer helps you track these conditions. It’s a game-changer for choosing the best eyelash glue for your salon. 

    Different lash glues work best in specific environments, so by keeping an eye on humidity and temperature, you can make sure your glue dries at the perfect speed for the best lash retention. This is especially important when working with classic eyelash extensions, as these require precision for long-lasting wear. If you’re unsure about your room’s ideal conditions for lash glue, we’ve got a full blog post that breaks it down for you!

    Lash Glue Stones & Stickers: No Mess, Cool Glue

    While lash glue rings are popular, they can expose both you and your clients to unwanted eyelash glue fumes and the risk of spills. For a safer and cleaner option, try a lash glue stone. It’s not only a chic addition to your eyelash extensions kit but also practical. 

    The cool surface of the lash glue stone helps keep your glue at an ideal temperature, making each drop last longer and stay fresh. This is a bonus when applying classic lashes, as it allows for smoother, more controlled application. For an even cleaner experience, add Glue Stone Stickers, which keep your workspace mess-free and make cleanup a breeze after your lash treatments.

    Prevent Clogs with Spare Nozzles & Biodegradable Wipes

    Every lash tech has experienced the frustration of a clogged lash glue nozzle. Instead of letting it ruin your flow when working on eyelash extensions, keep a few spare nozzles in your kit. These will save you from having to stop in the middle of applying those perfect classic eyelash extensions or volume lashes. 

    To avoid clogged nozzles in the first place, use Biodegradable Glue Nozzle Wipes. Regularly wiping down your lash glue nozzle keeps it free from buildup and ensures your eyelash glue stays airtight and fresh. This leads to better lash retention and happier clients with long-lasting lash extensions—whether they’re rocking wispy lashes or hybrid lashes.

    Airtight Storage for Longer-Lasting Lash Glue

    Proper lash glue storage is crucial for keeping it fresh, and an airtight container is a must-have for every lash technician. Whether you're working with classic eyelash extensions or intricate volume lashes, storing your glue in an airtight container keeps it protected from moisture and air, extending its shelf life. 

    Plus, it keeps your eyelash glue stored upright, preventing spills and nozzle clogs. An airtight container also helps you get more use out of each bottle, making it perfect for multiple lash extension treatments without waste.

    Other Must-Have Accessories for Lash Artists

    Along with caring for your eyelash glue, don't forget the other must-have essentials that every lash tech needs for flawless lash applications. Make sure you have under eye patches to protect your client's skin during treatments, and use lash shampoo to prep the lashes for better retention. 

    For a thorough clean, add a lash cleanser and primer to keep your clients' lashes fresh and ready for their next set. Tools like micropore tape and eyelid tape are also crucial for keeping everything in place and preventing fumes from irritating your client’s eyes. And of course, always have glue remover on hand for safe removal when needed.

    These top accessories will help you get the best out of your eyelash glue, keeping it fresh and effective for perfect lash extensions. Proper lash glue care leads to better results, happier clients, and repeat business. After all, great lash retention means great client retention!
