78. Dr. Stout Shares How Your Clients Can Be Allergic to the Lash Glue and Still Keep Their Lashes

Tired of losing clients to the lash allergy? We have some good news for you! You need to check out our podcast today where we have Dr. Warren Stout, our unofficial medical director, talk about all things lashes, and the biggest truth bomb he shares is how your clients can be allergic to the glue and still keep their lashes. If you have been doing lashes for a while, you have had a client eventually contact you and tell you that their eyes are puffy and itchy. This problem has plagued us since lash extensions started 16 years ago. If you go to a Facebook Group, you'll hear all sorts of advice: use clear glue, use a sensitive glue, take Benedryl. While some clients will see some improvement with these solutions...if you have been doing lashes long enough, you know these solutions are not 100% effective. In this episode, Dr. Stout shares how you can now 99% of the time have a solution that will work with your allergic clients. If you have been frustrated by this issue, this episode will be a huge relief. Dr. Stout also discusses how dangerous cyanoacrylate glue is and shares if the "seasonal lash loss" is real or not.
