Frequently Asked Questions
Whether it's your first time getting lash extensions or you need some pointers on keeping them healthy, here are a few Frequently Asked Questions to help you.
WHAT ARE LASH EXTENSIONS?
Eyelash Extensions are a semi-permanent application of synthetic or faux mink lashes to your natural lashes. These lashes are applied individually using an adhesive explicitly formulated for lash extensions. Extensions come in a variety of thicknesses, lengths, and colors. As a result, extensions can be customized to add length, curl, and volume to your natural lashes.
HOW LONG DO LASH EXTENSIONS LAST?
With proper at-home care, lashes will last up to 3-4 weeks. Losing 2-3 lashes a day is normal due to your shedding cycle and natural hair growth. Refills are recommended every 2-3 weeks to maintain lashes looking nice and full.
CAN I WEAR MASCARA?
No, mascara should not be applied to the extensions. If you decide to wear make-up, avoid oil-based and waterproof products as those will break up the adhesive bond faster.
CAN I SWIM WITH EXTENSIONS OR GET THEM WET?
You should avoid steam and getting your lashes wet the first 24 hours after service. You can swim with lash extensions on, shower, and wash your face normally. After swimming make sure you rinse your lashes and let them air dry. Do not brush your lashes while they are wet.
HOW DO I CLEAN MY LASH EXTENSIONS?
With a cleansing brush, use an oil-free lash cleanser or makeup remover to clean your lash line. It is important to clean and brush your lashes to prevent makeup build-up, irritations, or infections. Lash cleansers and brushes are available for purchase.
