Transcript
00:01you don't want your client to have any breakage or bald spots key to eyebrows
00:06leave them alone when they need to be tweezed or to be you know cleaned up
00:10and go for it I would love to get eyebrow extensions because I feel like it
00:17would really enhance my beauty and I already have eyelash extensions doing my
00:21eyebrow makeup is such a chore and I would love to eliminate that step in the
00:26makeup application process my name is Mae Manalo I'm a makeup artist and I
00:32specialize in eyebrow extensions and eyelash extensions I've been freelancing
00:36for 19 years I got into eyelash extensions which I loved it was tedious
00:40work but it was like fun for me it was like a video game and then when eyebrows
00:44came in I was like oh this is a new video game it's like I get to play all day
00:48I've
00:48never gotten my eyebrows done professionally by anyone I've never gotten
00:53on wax tweeze nothing done that's why I'm really nervous there is like that
00:59saying with beauty less is more with brows it's not necessarily like that it's just
01:03a part of your presentation when you're talking to someone so I think it's very
01:07important that's the great thing about brow extensions you can actually create
01:10something and give them a look if they don't know exactly how they want to look
01:14this is an opportunity to kind of like figure that out for you before you do
01:17anything more permanent
01:23first I'm going to clean any moisture around or on her brows
01:34I'll brush her brows up and down and take a look at which brows I can put the
01:39extensions on
01:50I'll take the tweezer and pick up a brow fiber and from the palette and dip it
01:56into the adhesive and carefully place it onto her eyebrows
02:15and then I'll start from the outer corner going in placing the eyebrow extensions
02:23onto her brows
02:46I'll repeat the steps until her brow is full from the outer corner to the inner corner and I'll spot
02:52it up and
02:52correct her eyebrow to see if there's any areas that need more eyebrow extensions to finish her look
03:03I can't even feel the difference between my real hair and the fake hair
03:08I'm like it looks like it looks nice
03:11it's been 24 hours since I received the treatment after the treatment was done I was a little bit shocked
03:17that it looked
03:18exactly like my hair it looked very natural it didn't look fake or anything so I was happy about that
03:23if the client is familiar with beauty and she can find a ways to upkeep it I definitely think she
03:29can get it to seven or ten days
03:33my eyebrows look way more fuller I actually got some compliments on my eyebrows when I was on
03:38FaceTime with my friends they liked it
03:40it's a lot easier when you do have brows like
03:42Alexandria she had full brows they weren't bold they or her hairs were a lot more on the thinner side
03:48but it wasn't that she didn't have any she just wanted more
03:51the aftercare process I definitely think you should stay clear of any oils or ointments on onto the face
03:58I mean I recommended for her to clean around it I want her to feel comfortable to do the things
04:05that she naturally does on a daily
04:06I feel like every woman is beautiful in their own right so I just feel like when we get stuff
04:11done it enhances it
04:12you just have to find our inner beauty but I would definitely recommend it for someone who struggles with hair
04:17loss or just growing hair on their eyebrows
