Born in Iran, the “تکنیک اسلوپی” or Sloppy lash technique is a master-level, editorial style that turns the lash line into art. Built with multi-layer mapping, dramatic length jumps from 4 mm to 18+ mm, angled placement around 45°, wispy spikes, & creative color blends, it elongates the eyes & delivers a bold, high-fashion finish. Because precision, time & aftercare are critical, clients should choose an expert artist trained in Sloppy techniques.

Real credibility isn’t bought it’s earned through skill, experience & genuine results.

“Mink” & “silk” lashes are nothing more than marketing tricks. If lash extensions were truly made of mink fur or silk, they would go limp and fall downward like human hair. The truth? All lash extensions are made of synthetic PBT & that’s what makes them safe, cruelty-free, and effective.

Becoming a true lash master takes years of dedication, not a two-day crash course. Training programs that promise instant mastery are dishonest, dangerous & a red flag for both students and clients.
