Lash Extension FAQ
What are eyelash extensions?
Eyelash extensions are individual, semi-permanent lashes of varying lengths, thicknesses, curvatures, and colors designed to attach to your own natural lashes to create longer, fuller, and curlier eyelashes. Application is customized to meet your specific needs and style.
Are eyelash extensions for me?
Eyelash extensions are the hottest trend in the beauty industry. They are practical and convenient, and instantly give you sexier, younger, and refreshed-looking eyes. Experience the joy of waking up in the morning looking "done", as you will no longer need to curl and apply coats of mascara.
Are lash extensions safe?
As long as they are applied and cared for correctly, they are safe and will cause no damage to your natural lash. They are adhered to each individual lash, and the adhesive does not come in contact with the skin.
How long do they last?
Your natural lashes shed and go through a growth cycle. The average lash life is about 60-100 days and undergoes three growth phases. Each individual eyelash enters each phase at different times. When your natural eyelashes mature and fall out, new lashes have already started growing. Lash extensions can last up to 5 weeks, but a fill in is recommended at 2-3 weeks to keep them full due to the shedding of your natural lashes. Environmental factors can effect retention of the adhesive as well. For example, if you come in contact with chlorine on a regular basis, the adhesive will likely break down faster than on someone who doesn't. It’s typical to lose 1-5 lashes per day.
How long does it take to get lash extensions?
A full set takes about 2-2.5 hours to apply. The more natural lashes you have, your artist will be able to apply more extensions. This is a meticulous procedure that requires time and concentration. Please be sure to leave yourself adequate time for your appointment so your lash artist is not rushed and you can leave with flawless lashes!
How do I remove eyelash extensions?
If you decide to remove your extensions, do not attempt to pull them off. You will pull out your natural lashes as well, and it can take some time to regrow the lashes. We are able to professionally remove the extensions for a small fee. If you would rather do it at home, (although we recommend professional removal), use a small amount of coconut oil or olive oil and work through the lashes. Eventually the extensions should slide off. Removal is recommended if you have any type of rare allergic reaction within 24 hours of having lashes applied.
