RefectoCil Hard sticks feature an inflexible, rigid shaft optimal for combing thick, coarse brow hairs and mixing dense paste volumes. RefectoCil Soft sticks feature a supple, pliable tip that yields under minimal pressure, making them the superior choice for delicate upper and lower lash applications where applicator drag against sensitive client eyelids must be avoided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea; margin-bottom: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; padding: 15px 0; outline: none; list-style: none; display: flex; justify-content: space-between; align-items: center; width: 100%;\"\u003eCan I clean and reuse RefectoCil Soft Application Sticks between clients? \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.8em; color: #888;\"\u003e▼\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0; color: #555; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eYes, provided you adhere to state and territory personal services infection control standards. Because the thermoplastic material is completely non-porous, dried tint does not absorb into the core. Thoroughly wash the stick with water and a neutral detergent immediately after treatment, then submerge it in an approved hospital-grade intermediate disinfectant solution for the specified contact duration. Alternatively, many high-volume salons dispose of them as single-use tools to maximise turnaround speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea; margin-bottom: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; padding: 15px 0; outline: none; list-style: none; display: flex; justify-content: space-between; align-items: center; width: 100%;\"\u003eWhy should I use the application stick instead of a micro-brush or synthetic angled brush? \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.8em; color: #888;\"\u003e▼\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0; color: #555; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eWhile synthetic angled brushes excel at crisp skin-stain brow mapping, they trap tint emulsion within the ferrule and between bristles, which can degrade the adhesive matrix over time and waste product. The RefectoCil Soft stick provides a completely non-absorbent planar surface, ensuring exact 1:1 paste deposition onto the lash bed without soaking up expensive developer. It also doubles as a chemical-safe mixing wand, saving tool transitions during back-to-back services.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea; margin-bottom: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; padding: 15px 0; outline: none; list-style: none; display: flex; justify-content: space-between; align-items: center; width: 100%;\"\u003eHow does using this stick alter processing time after a lash lift or lamination? \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.8em; color: #888;\"\u003e▼\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0; color: #555; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe stick itself does not alter the chemical kinetic rate, but its flexible blade allows for rapid, simultaneous coating of lashes while they remain affixed to silicone shields. Remember that following an alkaline chemical service (like a perming lotion or brow lamination), the hair cuticle is open and permeable. The tint development time must be reduced to exactly 2 minutes (or 1 to 5 minutes post-Blonde Brow) to prevent over-processing, structural hair damage, or unintended blackened results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #eaeaea; margin-bottom: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"cursor: pointer; font-weight: bold; padding: 15px 0; outline: none; list-style: none; display: flex; justify-content: space-between; align-items: center; width: 100%;\"\u003eDoes the soft tip retain tint pigment stains after repeated sanitisation cycles? \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.8em; color: #888;\"\u003e▼\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-bottom: 15px; margin-top: 0; color: #555; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eThe medical-grade polymer resists oxidative dye penetration when rinsed promptly after the application phase.
