XL-232 L-Shape "Parrot"

XL-232 L-Shape Parrot – precision tweezers for volume lashes

The XL-232 L-Shape Parrot is designed for stylists who work with volume lash extensions and require precise control with every lift. The L-shaped tip combines a narrow, angled 11 mm beak with a stable gripping surface, making it easy to pick up and place volume fans using the hand-made method without losing the shape of the fan.

Technical specifications

• Total length: 11.8 cm
• Beak length: 11 mm
• Shape: L-Shape with an angled, narrow tip
• Built-in ruler: Yes – located on the back for quick measurement of natural lashes
• Material: Stainless steel with smooth spring tension

Why choose the L-Shape Parrot?

Compared to the XL-260, the Parrot has a narrower and more angled beak geometry, which provides a sharper grip on thin lashes and minimizes the risk of the fan collapsing during placement. The built-in ruler on the back is a practical tool when you need to quickly check the natural length of the lashes without changing instruments.

The L-shape is designed to reduce strain on the wrist's bending motion during long treatments – an ergonomic choice for stylists who perform multiple treatments per day. The tweezers' spring tension is calibrated to maintain a consistent grip without requiring excessive hand pressure, which reduces hand fatigue.

Area of application and technique

The XL-232 L-Shape Parrot is excellent for the hand-made method when performing 2D–10D volume lash extensions. The angled beak makes it possible to roll and form the fan against a flat surface and then lift it with precise control. The tweezers also work for isolation during classic lash extensions thanks to their narrow tip profile.

For best results, ensure the beak is completely clean and free of glue residue before each use. Even minimal glue deposits on the tip affect the grip's precision and can cause the fan to lose its shape during placement.

Cleaning and maintenance

Clean the tweezers after each client with an acetone-based solution or a dedicated tweezer cleaner to dissolve glue residue. Store the tweezers in a protective case when not in use to avoid the tip becoming bent or damaged. Regularly check that the tips meet symmetrically – tweezers with incorrect closure will not deliver reliable precision.
