FAQS Eyelash Extensions
Eyelash Extensions are individually attached synthetic polyester eyelashes. They come in different colors, different thicknesses, different curls, and different lengths, which allows for extreme customizing.
How are they applied? You lay on a comfortable, massage table, with full neck support while quiet music plays in the background. I place a hydrating under eye gel pad over your lower lashes and then using tweezers to separate and isolate an individual lash and apply the eye lash extension on. The lashes are attached as close to the base as possible to the natural lash to ensure a flawless look.
Can I apply eyelash extensions to my own eyelashes? No. Only a trained professional will be able to safely apply eyelash extensions. Unprofessional application or self-application may cause eye injury, clumpy, unnatural looking lashes, or damage to your own lashes. Eyelash extension artist are trained and certified to apply one lash at a time to your individual natural eyelashes to achieve long, thick, luscious, and natural looking eyelashes. NOTICE: These are NOT the same eyelash extensions that you have applied from most nail salons. Avoid those at all cost as cheap extensions applied by untrained persons will RUIN your eyelashes! They do not apply them lash by lash, but instead glue your skin and eyelashes together in large clumps that cause your eyelashes to fall out! If you want to have this done take the time & invest the money to have it done correctly & safety. Your eyelashes will thank you!
Are they safe? Absolutely, Eyelash Extensions are 100% safe causing no damage to you or your lashes. Since the lash is attached away from the base of the lash the glue never comes in to contact with the skin. Less than 1 % off people ever have a reaction to the glue. If you are allergic to latex, hypoallergenic latex-free tape is used instead of the hydrating under eye gel pads.
What can the lashes do for me? Eyelash extensions are truly amazing. Beyond adding length, thickness, and curl to your natural lashes they can change the shape of your eyes. They can open up sunken eyes, make round eyes more oval, enhance blue eyes, bring green out in hazel eyes, diffuse redness in cheeks, and make yellowy eyes more white! Not to mention that you can swim in them, sleep in them, sweat in them and it always looks like you have perfectly styles, perfectly curled, utterly perfect lashes and looks like you are wearing make up no matter what!
How long do they last? The lashes are individually attached to one of your own natural lashes, therefore when your own natural lash shed the eyelash extension comes off with your natural lash. Depending on your health, age, natural hair growth cycle, and your care of the eyelash extensions will vary how long you will go in between appointments. The average is a 60 minute touch up every 3 weeks.
How do I care for the lashes? Maintenance is low for these lashes; do not get them wet for 48 hours after an application, avoid heavy oils and strong acids, keep rubbing your eyes to a minimum. There are recommended products that are low in acids and oils helping to protect the glue bond.
