October 15, 2019 by The Lash Professional.
Hey, lash artist babes, we’re going to give it to you straight. Without the right professional eyelash tweezers in your eyelash extension kit, you are not performing to the best of your ability.
And, frankly, there’s not an artistic vision or pristine lashing technique that will make up for a low-quality pair of tweezers.
With that said, today, we’re educating you on the many types of professional eyelash tweezers that lash technicians use to create daring looks.
We’ve put together this guide on the different types of professional eyelash tweezers to help you decide which needs to be a part of your lash extension kit. By the end of this, you’ll know the ins and outs of lash tweezers and their many functions.
8 Types of Professional Eyelash Tweezers
1. Straight Lash Tweezer
To begin, we’re starting with a basic tweezer that you may be familiar with: the straight lash tweezer!
These tweezers are exactly what they sound like.
Straight lash tweezers are long and narrow, ending with a tapered point. For our ferocious eyebrow pluckers, these closely resemble a traditional tweezer.
These straight tweezers are made for picking up eyelash extensions with ease! Don’t worry about dropping those precious lashes, either — the tips of this tweezer are aligned perfectly to ensure the firmest grip possible.
2. Pointed Straight Lash Tweezer
The pointed straight lash tweezer is your go-to lash tool when it comes to lash isolation. These tweezers isolate the client’s natural lashes right to prevent clumpy, unattractive lashes. Nobody wants that.
This tweezer looks similar to the straight lash tweezer. However, the pointed straight lash tweezer has a more sudden curve that tapers to a point, while the straight lash tweezer gradually comes to its pointed tip.
3. Isolation Lash Tweezers
The isolation lash tweezer helps you keep natural lashes isolated as you lash on the perfect look. As you hold this tweezer in your non-dominant hand, you can use another professional eyelash tweezer in your other hand to carefully attach lash extensions for your clients.
An isolation tweezer has a slight curve located on its underside. This curve allows for perfect isolation that is closer to the client’s eyelid. Basically, you don’t have to worry about losing an isolated lash with this excellent tool.
4. Pointed Curve Lash Tweezers
If you’re looking for a versatile professional eyelash tweezer, then this is the one for you, ladies! When it comes to the classic vs. volume eyelash extensions debate, you don’t have to pick a side.
The pointed curve lash tweezer’s short base allows for a firm grip. In turn, this makes it easy to pick up multiple lashes for a full-on volume fan. Or, if you need tweezers for classic lashing, these tweezers are a handy tool!
5. Pointed Edge Lash Tweezers
Professional eyelash tweezers in action!
The pointed edge lash tweezer is just as handy as its curved relative! This means you can use a pointed edge lash tweezer for the right volume look or lay down some classic lash style with ease.
A pointed edge lash tweezer curves in slightly before curving back with its angled tips.
6. Curved Lash Tweezers
When creating an eye-catching volume eyelash look, these curved lash tweezers are your go-to tool. These tweezers have a more gradual curve to their tip, resembling the letter J, which is why they’re also known as J tweezers.
The curved lash tweezer gives you some extra room in that “sweet spot” to make creating a volume fan easier! In addition, its precision tip allows the right amount of resistance for the best set of volume lashes.
7. Volume Lash Tweezers
When it comes to volume eyelash extensions, it feels good to have control. Control over those lashes, of course! The volume lash tweezers have a sharp curve at their tip, which resembles the letter L. So, these tweezers are also known as L tweezers!
With a pair of volume lash tweezers, you can easily control the volume fans you create. This makes styling unique and fabulous lash looks a breeze!
8. Round Volume Lash Tweezers
Round volume lash tweezers are similar to volume lash tweezers but have a more rounded tip compared to volume tweezers. Thanks to its short base and tight grip, you can make volume fans without losing any extensions!
How to care for eyelash tweezers
Sometimes, eyelash adhesive will get stuck on professional eyelash tweezers. To properly clean your tweezers, use a dime size amount of acetone on a cotton swab or tissue and wipe off the tips of the tweezer until clean.
And be sure to keep all your tweezers protected and free from dirt in our Magnetic Eyelash Extension Tweezer Case.

Make Stylish Lash Looks Comfortably!
