I finally chose between tape and glue for my lash extensions after 3 months of flip-flopping
Went with tape because my girl in Austin kept complaining glue irritated her eyes, and honestly it's been way faster for removal. Anyone else stick with tape over glue for sensitive clients?

Hold up, I gotta push back a little. I tried tape for a while but I kept having people complain that the lashes would slide around and lose that perfect shape before their next fill. For me, glue with sensitive adhesive is worth the extra removal time if it means the set stays put.

Oh, have you tried warming the tape up a bit before you apply it? I had the same problem with sliding until I figured out that if you hold the strip against your skin for like 10 seconds first, the adhesive grabs way better. @robert_ross95 I get what you're saying about glue being stronger, but honestly, the removal time adds up so fast when you're doing multiple sets a night. Another thing that helped me was switching to a different brand of tape - some of them are just way more tacky than others right out of the package. You don't want to mess around with lashes shifting mid-fill though, I've had clients get super annoyed about that too.
