Open eyes

Lslusher1 · July 31, 2019, 3:04am

I have such a hard time with eyelashes on open eyes. Very frustrating!

Me too I don’t know the key or the secret. I rip all my lashes out trying to glue!!!

Peachtree · July 31, 2019, 3:16am

I root them.

Estelle85 · July 31, 2019, 3:17am

Me too and sometimes all the hair gets ripped when glueing!!!

Do you have any good pointers or tutorials you use for rooting?

jlesser · July 31, 2019, 3:29am

Girl! Ugh
I got the bright idea to spread glue with my toothpick… and twist as I went. Soooo stupid!
DO NOT do that. The hairs wrapped around the toothpick and pulled them through to the inside and I had to re-root it!

I put the eyelashes on first , let it dry, and then put the eyes in from the back. It works for me and no glue on the eyeballs. I don’t root open eyed babies because I can’t get them even enough.

we live and we learn. I still don’t have a good solution for it. I pray real hard when doing it and I’m not big on open eyes. I was soooo nervous about that dang Jaylan. That is why tink has no lashes, I was like not today. I noticed some people not putting lashes

I do to but still have so much trouble with them. Today has not been a fruitful day for me in the reborning world. Think I need to walk away fir a day or to lol

Lslusher1 · July 31, 2019, 4:52am

Oh and eyebrows are even worse for me!

Lslusher1 · July 31, 2019, 4:55am

Same here and root after eyes are in or after🤪

Estelle85 · July 31, 2019, 5:03am

LOL, I almost put holes around the eyes on one baby from reroooting too much, lol

Lslusher1 · July 31, 2019, 5:12am

Yep totally understand

I stopped rooting eyelashes because they just looked terrible. I know the glue in ones can fall out easily but they look so much nicer. I might go back to rooting but I need to find the right hair for it.
I used modpodge and my finger for gluing them in when I was rooting. Then after I put the eyes in, put the eye glue on and the pledge I felt confident that they were glued in properly

I used the strip lashes and trimmed them. Honest opinion please–do they look too dolly? Should I be rooting them?

babymaw · July 31, 2019, 11:49am

Looks good to me.

evelyn · July 31, 2019, 11:55am

She is beautiful and the lashes look great!

PutABonnetOnIt · July 31, 2019, 12:03pm

No they look fantastic!

pschomaker · July 31, 2019, 12:45pm

I can never get the rooted eyelashes to curl up. I use the strips, glue carefully with a toothpick, and trim them before gluing. It also helps to add the drops of wax for shine afterwards. I think that helps secure them in place.

Lslusher1 · July 31, 2019, 3:23pm

No they look really good and natural.
