Types of Eyelash Tweezers
Types of eyelash tweezers are by the shape of their tips or by their materials.
By the Shape of Their Tips
Tips of lash extension tweezers are important and make them professional. Since they pick, select and separate the extensions, they are particularly important.
A-Shape
These are ideal for picking up and attaching classic lash extensions.
F-Shape
These are perfect for isolation and attachment of classic lash extensions.
I-Shape
I-shape or straight tweezers are perfect for isolation and for classic lash extension application. Thin and long I-shape tweezers are perfect for isolation whereas thicker and shorter ones are good for classic lash extensions.
L Shape
These are perfect for applying handmade volume fans and picking and attaching them.
S Shape
These are great for picking up fans and attaching them when you get volume lash extensions applied. They can even be used for isolation if you have a deep eye set or prominent forehead.
X Shape
These are great for classic extensions because they can hold classic extensions without exerting excessive tension on the lash artist’s hand.
Round Shape
These are ideal since their round tips are safe for removing eye pads or tapes after the treatment.
By the Material
Most commonly used materials for lash extension tweezers are titanium and stainless.
Titanium
Titanium is much lighter than stainless tweezers and is rust-free. This is a very strong yet springy material and so, is perfect for professional lash extension tweezers.
Stainless
This material is more rust-resistant than metal but still can rust if not taken care of. This material contains a small quantity of nickel and can cause some allergic reactions to some people, though rarely.
Magnetic Vs. Non-magnetic
Tweezers also fall into magnetic or non-magnetic category. If you live in a dry climate area, using magnetic tweezers can cause complications in the lash extension application.
Therefore, it’s recommended for the lash artists to use non-magnetic tweezers in dry climate.
