How long does it take to apply lash extensions?

Applying a full set of lashes takes about two hours, and can be maintained year-round with touch-ups recommended every three to four weeks. 

 

Everyone has different lashes, and depending on the condition of your own natural lashes, lash experts can only go a certain length or thickness. (This is to ensure that your own lashes remain healthy.) For example, if your natural lashes are on the shorter, thinner side, you won’t be able to get a overly-dramatic look, because it won’t last. It’s better to start out with a half set (50 to 60 percent of your top lashes) if you aren’t sure or it’s your first time. It’s easier to add more than to remove lashes!

 

What happens when you cry?

If you experience any burning or discomfort during the procedure, causing your eyes to tear or making you cry, this is a huge red flag and you should certainly speak up. You may need to have your technician change the glue. Getting lash extensions should be a completely pain-free experience.

 

Do lash extensions fall out over a certain period of time? 

Since each lash extension is attached to a single eyelash, they will fall out naturally along with the natural growth cycle of each lash. We recommend a touch-up every three to four weeks.

 

When an inexperienced professional applies lashes, he or she often applies one synthetic lash to three to four natural lashes, causing clumps or the lash to break and fall out. In addition, your lashes might fall out if you pick at them or try to pull them out yourself, which is a big no-no. But if you avoid those two problems, your lashes should stay intact.

 

Can you shower or swim right away? Are there products you should absolutely avoid? 

Keep water away from your lashes for the first 24 hours after application or touch-ups. Water can weaken the adhesive before it is set and cause lashes to fall off. Oil-based products or makeup removers around the eye area are not recommended. Using water-proof mascara on the extensions is not recommended for any type of glue, as it is hard to remove and can actually pull off the lashes prematurely when trying to take it off. Clients should never use an eyelash curler on their extentions, this can damage not just the extentions but the natural lashes underneath as well.

 

Is it okay to also wear mascara?

It is not recommended to wear mascara with your lash extensions. The oils in the mascara can break down the adhesive, causing your extentions to fall out faster. If your lashes are looking a little sparse then that means its time for a re-fill.

 

Will your natural lashes get harmed or damaged? 

The biggest myth is that lash extensions ruin your own lashes. They do not. If applied correctly and properly, they are safe and do not ruin the health of your natural lashes. Be sure not to rub your eyes or tug or pull on the extensions because this can cause lash loss and even damage to your natural lashes. If lashes are applied properly and to each individual lash, they won’t fall out.

Volume Lashes

Volume lashes are lighter, fluffier and provide a dramatic, fuller look. Volume lashes are perfect for clients who don't have a lot of natural lashes, have sparse lashes, bald spots or just want a more dramatic look without having to use a thicker lash.  

 

Volume lashes are extremely lightweight and allow us to place 2 to 8 extensions per natural lash (2 eyelash extensions applied per one natural lash is 2D, 3 eyelash extensions is 3D etc). Volume lashes are much thinner than typical eyelash extensions, they're very soft, fluffy and they provide the most natural-feeling of all eyelash extensions.
