• Lash Lifting: is a technique that uses chemical products that curve and nourish the eyelashes at the same time; leaving the eyelashes curved and with the advantage of treating those little strands. The duration of the technique is up to 8 weeks and the threads gradually lose their curved shape.
• Perm: an older technique for curling eyelashes is perm, which uses cosmetics to curl these little strands, but the products used can make the strands more brittle, since they do not nourish the eyelashes, as is the case with lash lifting . In general, the product used to perform a perm is ammonium thiogluconate, a product that constant use can weaken and make the eyelashes brittle.
