Lashing Colored Looks:
One of the most important steps is ensuring the color of the lashes compliments your client’s eye color and skin tone. There are a few different styles of adding colored lashes. You can blend them with black lashes by adding color to one layer and black to the others. You could do all colors or just a little pop of color. Make sure you do a thorough consultation so you and your client are on the same page. The actual lash itself can feel different from black lashes. Make sure you practice with them beforehand. Try premade fans to speed up time.
When it comes to fill appointments, it can get complicated, especially if your client wants to switch colors. Your fill appointments should start as usual if your client wants to keep the same colors. You will need to remove all the overgrown lashes and replace them with colored lashes. Make sure you plan where and how you place the colored lashes. Then your look will be cohesive and clean. If your client wants to change colors or even the look/style of the color, you will have to completely remove all the colored lashes in the set.
