 | Frequently Asked Questions About Eyelash Extensions |
 |
|
- What are Eyelash Extensions?
Eyelash Extensions are single strands of synthetic lashes that are curved to replicate a natural eyelash. They are applied to each individual natural eyelash for a natural look, while providing length and thickness to lashes.

- What do eyelash extensions look like and how do they feel?
With proper application, eyelash extensions look and feel just like your own eyelashes. They are comfortable, natural looking, and can be worn with contacts.

- How long do eyelash extensions last?
When applied properly, our semi-permanent lashes will last the length of the natural growth cycle of your eyelashes. Our glue is specially formulated with a unique waterproof bonding agent to last. Imitation products may not last as long because their bonding agent is not of the same quality.

- How often should I get touch-ups?
We recommend getting a touch up every two to four weeks. Your natural eyelashes fall off every 60 days due to the natural growth cycle and are naturally replaced with the growth of a new eyelash. A touch up is needed to replenish the fallen lashes. Touch ups generally take a short time and are relatively inexpensive.

- Can I apply mascara to eyelash extensions?
One of the main advantages of eyelash extensions is never needing mascara again. However, if you absolutely must have it, only water based mascara can be used. You may also purchase the specially formulated mascara from our Certified Lash Professional. DO NOT USE OIL-BASED OR WATER-PROOF MASCARA. Waterproof mascara along with any type of oil based mascara can dissolve the bonding agent and cause extensions to fall off.

- Can I swim, shower, exercise, or visit a spa while wearing eyelash extensions?
Yes! Our specially formulated bonding agent allows you to shower, swim, exercise and spa worry-free while wearing extensions. Do not swim or spa for 24 hours after the procedure to allow adequate bonding time. After that, you can swim and spa worry free.

- Can I use eyelash curlers with eyelash extensions?
You CANNOT use MECHANICAL eyelash curlers as these curlers will damage the extensions. Our lashes are created with a beautiful curl, but for those of you who want an extreme curl look, we recommend using our specially made heated eyelash curler that is safe to use with your eyelash extensions.

- How do I take care of my eyelash extensions?
Your new extensions are long, thick and beautiful! To maintain this look and extend the life of your lashes, follow instructions on the "After Appointment" menu button.

- Can you describe the application process?
Clients recline comfortably on a massage table with eyes closed while our Certified Eyelash Professional applies extensions to each eyelash using a special bonding agent. Depending on the amount of lashes needed, it generally takes between 60 and 120 minutes to apply one set of extensions. Touch ups can be done in as little as 15 to 45 minutes.

- Is the product FDA approved? Is it safe?
Currently the FDA is not regulating eyelash extensions because they are applied to the natural eyelash hairs and do not touch the skin. The application process is pain-free and relaxing. In fact, most clients fall asleep during the procedure. However, improper application by an unqualified technician can cause damage to the eyes and eyelids. We recommend only using a Certified Eyelash Professional.
Back to Top
- Why do you use different lengths of eyelash extensions?
We recommend three lengths of extensions in order to provide a natural look and feel. The smallest eyelashes typically go on the interior lashes, the longest lengths towards the middle, and intermediate lengths at the exterior of your eye.
Back to Top
- How many eyelashes are used for each application?
Many factors are considered when deciding the amount of eyelash extensions to apply. The number of natural eyelashes, the fullness preferred, and the natural eyelash lengths are all be taken into consideration. For the most basic look, 20-30 eyelashes are needed on each eye. For the most popular look -a full glamorous set- 40-70 extensions are needed per eye.
Back to Top
- Are there other colors to choose from?
Yes! You may choose from various lash colors including black, dark brown, golden brown, auburn, blue, red, green, pink and purple. The Lash Artist can design a custom look for any occasion.
Back to Top
- How do I prepare for the procedure?
Before you come to your appointment, do not curl your lashes or wear any mascara. Remove contact lenses and thoroughly clean your lashes with a mild, water-based cleanser. Eyelids and lashes must be completely clean and dry. Please see the "Before Appointment" menu button for more information.
