Who created or invented lashes?
Google will tell you Anna Taylor, a Canadian woman filed the first patent in the U.S. Lash books will give credit to Maksymillian Faktorowicz, a Polish guru and businessman, who founded Max Factor in 1916. My research found that UK native, Karl Nessler holds the first patent filed Aug. 1902.
Daniel Dinh, however, holds the first and 2009 patent in the U.S. for multi-layer Eyelash Extensions.
 
How many lashes does one have?
Normally 100-150 
 
Do Eyelash Extensions harm my lashes?
Properly applied lashes Do Not harm the natural lashes. Be sure that an approved adhesive for lashes is being used.
 
 How long will my Eyelash Extenisons last?
Natural lashes have three growth cycles. Typically lashes have a life span of 6 to 12 weeks. If lashes are attached to Telogen lashes they are the first to go. This being said, you lose lashes daily, just like you lose hair from your head.
 
Are you able to apply Eyelash Extensions with a Certificate?
No, in the State of Texas and 46 other States you must be a licensed occupation holder of either Esthetics or Cosmetology. 

As a Cosmetologist do I need to obtain an Eyelash Extensions Specialty license?
No, as a State licensed professional you only need to be trained by taking a Eyelash Class. Be sure the course is an approved course, and the instructor is a license holder.
