Description
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION (1) Field of the Invention

The present disclosure relates generally to a method for grafting eyelash extension, and more particularly to a technique for grafting eyelash extension on true eyelash.

(2) Brief Description of Related Art

Eyelash extensions are artificial eyelashes used to beautify eyes, mainly by enhancing the length and thickness of true eyelashes, so as to make the eyes look bigger, brighter and more eye-catching. The origin of eyelash extension has been around for a long time. The records of eyelash extensions can be found in documents of ancient Egypt and ancient Rome as early as 2000 B. C. Obviously, the way of beautifying eye shapes through eyelash extensions has a long history.

The main reason for beautifying eyes lies in the fact that many people have problems with droopy eyes, puffy eyes, or eyes that are not big enough to fit into certain aesthetic view, and the above problems may cause difficulties when applying eye makeup.

By means of artificial eyelash grafting to make the outline of the eyes clearer and more obvious and to eliminate swelling, droopy and insufficient size of the eyes, the problems of swelling, droopy, and not large enough eyes may be overcome.

Current methods of grafting eyelashes, such as the method disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 8,967,158B2 entitled “Artificial eyelash and method for grafting the same”, usually uses only one or two different lengths of eyelash extensions, and thus the grafted eyelashes usually looks artificial and unnatural without showing the true curvature like a fan shape; and the lash stylist (hereinafter referred to as user) in operation may directly adhere eyelash affinity agent and eyelash extension to the root skin of the true eyelash, which may cause discomfort of the grafted person.

Furthermore, when an ordinary user grafts eyelash extensions, tweezers are usually employed to take eyelash extensions to directly stick to the roots of true eyelashes. As a result, the eyelashes are adhered together easily, and the grafting effect is not good and beautiful.

Furthermore, user must deliberately look at or stare at the eyelash extension and the true eyelash with his/her eyes when tweezing the eyelash extension or grafting the eyelash extension on the true eyelash, which is very inefficient and rather time-consuming. As such, the eyelash extension tweezing efficiency needs to be improved.

Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing method of tweezing and grafting eyelash extension.

SUMMARY OF INVENTION

In view of the above problems, the inventor of the present disclosure has conducted research and analysis on the technique of eyelash grafting, with an expectation to develop a method to solve the above problems.

Therefore, the main object of the present disclosure is to provide a method for grafting eyelash extension, whereby the user does not have to deliberately look at the eyelash extension with his/her own eyes when tweezing eyelash extensions so the tweezing of eyelash extension can be done smoothly and efficiently, and the user also does not have to deliberately look at the true eyelash when grafting the eyelash extension to the true eyelash; further, the eyelash extension grafting can be accomplished through a five-point positioning method to create a symmetrical finished eyelash extensions on the grafted person's face.

In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, when tweezing the eyelash extension, the user can operate tweezers accurately to grab an eyelash extension by controlling the open end of the tweezers and the timing of touching the eyelashes with the tweezers without the need to deliberately look at or stare at the eyelash extension with his/her own eyes, the user also can operate tweezers to accurately separate the true eyelash to grab and separate true eyelashes easily.

After the eyelash separating is finished, the true eyelash of the grafted person is further divided and positioned by, for example, a five-point positioning method so as to continue the grafting step.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Refer to FIG. 1, which shows a schematic view of implementing steps of the present disclosure, which will be described as below:

Cleaning step 21: cleaning the eyelashes of grafted person, user's hands or tweezers by using a Nano Zinc antibacterial cleaning liquid.

Eye pad adhering step 22: refer to FIG. 2 which shows a schematic view (1) of the implementation of the present disclosure. When grafting is conducted on the eyelashes of the grafted person 1, in order to avoid overlapping of upper and lower eyelashes due to eyelids shutting so as not to increase the difficulty in grafting eyelash extensions, the lower eyelash of the grafted person 1 must be adhered with an eye pad 2 so that the lower eyelash is covered by the eye pad 2. Thereby, the upper eyelash 3 is normally laid flat on the surface of the eye pad 2 when the grafted person 1 closes the eyes.

Eyelash grabbing extension step 23: refer to FIG. 3 which shows a schematic view (2) of the implementation of the present disclosure. In implementation, a pair of tweezers 4 can be operated at an angle of 45 degrees (for example, user takes the tweezers 4 with an angle of 45 degrees by his hand), to grab at the middle point of an eyelash extension 5 so as to take the eyelash extension 5. In contrast, if the user conducts the grabbing at a place close to the upper end of the eyelash extension 5, for example, at the place of one-fifth of the eyelash extension, the user cannot conduct the grafting stably. In more detail, when user wants to grab the eyelash extension 5, the tweezers 4 first span the entire densely arranged eyelash extensions 5 and the open end of the tweezers 4 is slightly opened when the slightly opened tweezers 4 approaches several eyelash extensions 5, one of the several eyelash extensions 5 is situated within the open end. Thereafter, the open end of the tweezers 4 is again opened, and the tweezers 4 further pushes aside the other eyelash extensions (not shown) on both outer sides so as to make the eyelash extension 5 situated within the open end easier to be identified.

In this manner, when the eyelash extension 5 is grabbed, the user need not to deliberately look at or stare at the eyelash extension 5 to be grabbed with his eyes, he just directly grabs the eyelash extension 5 to be grabbed by the tweezers 4. Thereby, eyelash-grabbing efficiency and accuracy can be substantially and significantly improved.

Eyelash separating step 24: refer to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 which show respectively the implementation views (3) and (4) of the present disclosure. In present implementation, the open end 41′ of a second pair of tweezers 4′ is allowed to be in a closed state firstly, so as to be ready to extend into several upper eyelashes 3. When the open end 41′ of the second pair of tweezers 4′ touch the upper eyelashes 3, the open end 41′ of the second pair of tweezers 4′ are allowed to be opened so that one upper eyelash 3 is situated within the open end 41′.

Thereafter, the second pair of tweezers 4′ are operated again to pushes aside the other upper eyelashes 3′ on both outer sides so as to make the upper eyelashes 3 situated within the open end 41′ to be identified easier; further, individual true eyelashes can be precisely separated. In this manner, not only the eyelash separation efficiency can be improved, but also the training period can be effectively shortened when the steps S23 and S24 are implemented in the training of lash stylist.

Five-point positioning step 25: Refer to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, which respectively show the implementation views (5) and (6) of the present disclosure. Continuing from the step 24, this step 25 is to explain that the eyelash extension 5 is dipped with glue and then grafted to the upper eyelash 3 within the open end 41′ of the second pair of tweezers 4′.

In the step 25, when grafting, the eyelash extensions 5 can be pulled back and forth by the tweezers 4, so that the glue adhered to the knotted end of the eyelash extension 5 is evenly attached to the place of one-third of the upper eyelash 3, thereafter, the eyelash extension 5 is parallelly adhered onto the upper eyelash 3. The above step is to be repeated until five eyelash extensions 5 are evenly adhered to five upper eyelashes 3. The finish after the adhering is shown in FIG. 5, and the abovementioned five eyelash extensions 5 are respectively adhered to five upper eyelashes 3 (as shown in A, B, C, D, E respective positions of FIG. 6). When referring to FIG. 5, it is apparent that the five eyelash extensions 5 adhered can thus divide the several upper eyelashes 3 into six even regions.

In this manner, after the five-point positioning step 25 is accomplished, user can use the length of the five eyelash extensions 5 as a reference when grafting is conducted, so that the grafted eyelashes appear neat and natural, with a multi-layered and aesthetic finish.

Furthermore, unlike customary situation where ordinary users would first grab an eyelash extension 5 to dip with glue and then start to select an upper eyelash 3 to be grafted, which often leads to the issue that glue would be dry even before grafting, the user of the present disclosure can first grab the eyelash extension (step 23) and separate the true eyelashes (step S24) before dipping the eyelash extension with glue, so the glue would not be dry by the time of grafting.

In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, when the five-point positioning step 25 is performed, the B position and the D position shown in FIG. 5 may be adhered first, and then continue to adhere at the A position, the C position, and the E position using B position and D position as references. Also, the position of the eyelash extension 5 is at a distance of one millimeter away from the eyelid.

Grafting step 26: following the eyelash-separating step 24 and the five-point positioning step 25, after the five-point positioning step 25 is accomplished, the remaining upper eyelashes are grafted in the manner of the eyelash-separating step 24 in conjunction with the method of grafting the eyelash extension 5 used in the five-point positioning step 25 so as to complete the grafting of the eyelash extensions 5 on the remaining upper eyelashes.

In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, when the five-point positioning step 25 and the grafting step 26 are performed, the eyelash extensions 5 of different lengths can be used for grafting, and the total lengths of the grafted eyelashes can be lengthened to natural length in succession from the inner corner of the eye to the middle of the eye, and an relatively long eyelash extension 5 is used for the portion corresponding to the outer corner of the eye. Alternatively, an eyelash extension 5 that is relatively long is used for the portion corresponding to the middle portion of the eye, and eyelash extensions 5 with rather short length in succession are employed respectively for the portions corresponding to the inner and outer corners of the eye. Alternatively, the above-mentioned total lengths can be lengthened in succession from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner of the eye. Alternatively, an eyelash extension 5 with natural length is employed for the portion corresponding to the middle portion of the eye, and relatively short eyelash extensions 5 in succession are employed respectively for the portions corresponding to the inner and outer corners of the eye so as to make the eyelashes of the grafted person present a fan-like natural curvature.

In addition, the method for performing eyelash extension grafting on the lower eyelashes of the grafted person is basically the same as the principle described in the steps 21 to 26, hence details thereof are omitted herein.

It is apparent from the above, after the method for grafting eyelash extension disclosed in the present disclosure is implemented, user need not to deliberately look at or stare at the eyelash extension with his eyes so as to grab the eyelash extension smoothly when the eyelash extension is taken by the tweezers; and user also need not to deliberately look at or stare at the upper eyelash with his eyes so as to separate the eyelash smoothly; after eyelash separating of the upper eyelash is accomplished, the five-point positioning method is further employed to graft the eyelash extension. In this manner, the present disclosure may effectively improve the overall efficiency of grafting eyelash extension.

While the present disclosure has been described by preferred embodiments in conjunction with accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the embodiments and the drawings are merely for descriptive and illustrative purpose, not intended for restriction of the scope of the present disclosure. Equivalent variations and modifications performed by person skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of in the present disclosure should be considered to be still within the scope of the present disclosure.
