Q: What are Lash Extensions?
A: Eyelash Extensions are individual strands of synthetic fibers made to replicate a natural eyelash. When applied, eyelash extensions lengthen and thicken your own natural eyelashes. The single strands are applied to each individual eyelash, one by one. With proper application, lash extensions look and feel completely natural.
Q: How Long Do Lash Extensions Last?
A: When applied by one of our artists, eyelash extensions will last the length of the natural growth cycle of your own eyelashes. Depending on your activity and day-to-day routine, refills should only be required every 2 to 4 weeks.
Q: Are Lash Extensions Safe?
A: We only uses professional grade adhesive which never comes in contact with your skin. Synthetic eyelashes adhere about 1mm away from your skin.
Q: Can I Apply Mascara Over my Lash Extensions?
A: Our eyelash extensions are designed to give your natural lashes an improved look of fullness so mascara is not needed. Also, mascara can breakdown the glue and/ or clump the extensions together, causing harm to your natural lashes.
Q: Can I Swim, Shower, Exercise, or Visit a Spa While Wearing Eyelash Extensions?
A: We do ask you to minimize the chance of wetting the extensions for the first 48 hours of wear. After that 48-hour period, the adhesive used to apply your eyelash extensions is secure enough to allow you to get right back to your routine. However, keeping away from extensive contact with steam such as in saunas or certain facials is not recommended since it can begin to loosen the bond.
Q: How Soon After Can I Get My Lashes Wet?
A: The suggested time frame is 24 hours. For a guest with sensitivities, it is suggested to wash within the first 12 hours of application.
Q: How Do I Take Care Of My Lash Extension?
A:
- Avoid getting lashes wet for the first 24 hours
- Avoid hot steam or sauna
- Do not perm eyelashes or manually curl.
- Brush with a clean mascara wand daily.
- TIP: Sometimes mornings are a mess! Try washing your lashes with water in the morning and gently brushing the top side of the extensions with a finger placed beneath.
Q: How Long Will it Take to Apply Eyelash Extensions? How is it Done?
A: The application process for lash extensions normally takes about 60-90 minutes for a full set of lashes and 45-60 minutes for a refill. You will lay comfortably on a massage table with your eyes closed while relaxing music is played in the background. During application, your lower lashes will be covered and the extensions will be applied only to your upper lashes one at a time.
Q: How Do I Choose the Look I Want?
A: Your technician will consult with you to understand what type of style you are interested in and what look will work best with your natural lashes. The overall look of the lashes can range from very natural to very voluminous!
2D-10D lash on each individual lash. Eyes appear bigger, bolder, more luscious and noticeable as more lashes are attached. Up to 350 lashes on each eye. A definite head turning set!
2D-10D volume mixed with one individual lash. Up to 250 lashes are applied to each eye which gives the look of 2-3 coats of mascara. Creates a natural look with a bit of volume.
Eyes appear bigger and fresher, lashes are longer and thicker with the look of 1-2 coats of mascara. 90 lashes are applied to each eye. Creates a natural look.
Q: Do I Have to Do Anything to Prepare for this Service?
A: To remove any eye makeup, use an oil-free makeup remover to cleanse your lashes prior to the appointment as well to remove any leftover mascara. Lashes should not be permed or manually curled at the time of appointment.
