How to Apply Lashify Lashes on Straight Lashes: A Step-by-Step Guide

If you have naturally straight lashes, you know the struggle of getting them to hold a curl. Many lash extensions and glues don't adhere well, and false lashes can look obvious. But with Lashify, you can achieve a beautiful, natural-looking lash lift that stays put. In this guide, we'll walk you through the best techniques for applying Lashify lashes on straight lashes, from prep to finish.

Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned Lashify user, these tips will help you get the most out of your lashes. We'll cover how to properly curl your natural lashes, choose the right Lashify products, and apply the lashes for a seamless, long-lasting look. Let's dive in!

Why Straight Lashes Need Special Care

Straight lashes point downward or straight out, making it tricky for lash extensions to bond properly. With Lashify, the key is to create a firm foundation. Your natural lashes need to be curled upward so the Lashify lash can rest on top and fuse with the adhesive. Without proper curling, the lashes may not adhere well or could look droopy.

Additionally, straight lashes often have a finer texture, which means they can be more delicate. Using the right technique and products, like the WATER POOF® MAGIC DUST for extra hold, can make all the difference. This product helps seal the bond and adds longevity, especially for those with oily or straight lashes.

• Always curl your natural lashes before applying Lashify.
• Use a waterproof bond for better hold on straight lashes.

Step 1: Prep Your Natural Lashes

Start with clean, oil-free lashes. Any residue can prevent the adhesive from sticking. Gently wash your face and lashes with a mild cleanser, then dry thoroughly. Avoid using any oil-based products around the eyes before application.

Next, curl your natural lashes using an eyelash curler. For straight lashes, a good curl is crucial. Press and hold for 10-15 seconds, then release. You can also use a heated curler for a longer-lasting curl. Make sure your lashes are lifted upward before moving to the next step.

• Use an oil-free makeup remover to clean lashes.
• Curl lashes in sections for an even lift.

Step 2: Choose the Right Lashify Lashes

For straight lashes, consider using a Lashify style that has a natural curl, such as the Curl / Black / 14mm - Long. This style provides a beautiful curl that complements your natural lift. If you prefer a more subtle look, the Classic Petit is a great choice for a wispy, natural effect.

You can also mix and match lengths to create a customized look. For straight lashes, it's often best to avoid very heavy or dramatic styles, as they may weigh down your natural lashes. Stick with lightweight, curled options that blend seamlessly.

• Choose styles with a pre-existing curl for best results.
• Start with shorter lengths if you're new to Lashify.

Step 3: Apply the Bond and Lashes

Apply a thin layer of Lashify bond to the underside of your natural lashes, focusing on the base. Wait a few seconds for it to become tacky. Then, using the Lashify tool, pick up a lash cluster and place it under your natural lashes, pressing gently to fuse. The bond will hold the lash in place.

For straight lashes, you may need to hold the lash in position a bit longer to ensure a strong bond. Work from the outer corner inward, applying one cluster at a time. Once all lashes are applied, use a spoolie to blend them with your natural lashes.

• Work in small sections for precision.
• Hold each lash for 5-10 seconds to secure the bond.

Step 4: Seal and Set

To lock in your look and add extra hold, apply a sealant like the WATER POOF® MAGIC DUST. This product helps protect against moisture and keeps your lashes in place all day. Lightly dust it over your lashes using the included applicator.

You can also use a lash curler again very gently after application to enhance the curl. Avoid using oil-based products near your lashes, as they can break down the bond. With proper care, your Lashify lashes can last for days.

• Avoid touching or rubbing your eyes after application.
• Sleep on your back to preserve the lash curl.

Applying Lashify on straight lashes is easy once you know the right techniques.
