Abstract
A method of making artificial strip and cluster eyelashes. The method includes the steps of knotting eyelash strands to a support. While still being supported, the strands are heated and bonded together along a line parallel to and adjacent the knots. After heating and bonding, the lash strands are severed from the knots along a line intermediate the knots and the heating and bonding line.
Claims13
A method of fabricating artificial eyelashes comprising the steps of
- (a) tying at least one strand of eyelash material to a string support, the strand being tied to the support at a point intermediate its ends so as to provide at least two simulated lashes extending away from the support;
- (b) placing the lashes and string support against a support surface to provide a temporary backing on one side of the support and eyelash material;
- (c) physically securing the lashes together at an intermediate point between the tie point and the free ends of the strand by pressing the lashes into contact with the support surface with a heating and bonding implement applied to the side of the eyelash material opposite the support surface, the intermediate point corresonding to a desired artificial eyelash length;
- and
- (d) separating the eyelashes from the tie point on the string support along a line between the tie point and the intermediate point of securing of the lashes to produce at least one pair of lashes secured together at one end and free at the opposite end.

A method of making artificial eyelashes comprising the steps of
- (a) tying a plurality of strands of eyelash material to a string support to provide a plurality of lashes;
- (b) placing the lashes against a support surface to provide a temporary backing on one side of the support and eyelash material;
- (c) physically securing at least two of the strands of eyelash material together at a point intermediate the tie point and the free ends of the lashes by pressing the eyelash material into contact with the support surface with a heating and bonding implement applied to the side of the strands of eyelash material opposite the support surface, the intermediate point corresponding to a desired artificial eyelash length;
- and
- (d) separating the secured together strands of eyelash material from the string support along a line intermediate the point of tying the eyelash material to the string support and the point of securing to provide at least one pair of artificial eyelashes.
