Eyelash Extensions: Before and After Care Advice and Information

 

 

LASH APPLICATION AND CARE

DO NOT SWIM OR SPA FOR 2 DAYS AFTER THE PROCEDURE TO ALLOW ADEQUATE BONDING TIME

Can I use eyelash curlers with my Eyelash Extensions?

You CANNOT use MECHANICAL eyelash curlers as they can prematurely damage your Eyelash Extensions.

Eyelash extensions are created with a beautiful curl, but for those of you who want an extreme curl we recommend using a HEATED EYELASH CURLER.

How do I take care of Eyelash Extensions?

  • Do not wash eyes, swim, shower for 24 hours to allow adequate bonding time for the lashes

  • Be gentle with your lashes

  • Do not use a mechanical eyelash curler

  • Avoid oil based cosmetic products around the eye. This will dissolve the adhesive

  • Do not use oil based mascara, if you must use mascara especially designed for your lashes

  • Use only water-based facial cleansers

  • ONLY use make oils fee make up remover. Remember to be gentle with your lashes while removing eye make up

  • Do not visit saunas or steam rooms frequently. Routine exposure to heat may cause the bond to loosen.

DAILY TIPS: the most common cause of  lash extensions falling out before the end of your natural lash cycle includes excessive touching, use of oil based products, layering on excessive amounts of mascara which requires excessive cleansing, and frequent exposure to heat sources such as spas, saunas and tanning salons.

LASH CLEANSER  AND HOME CARE PRODUCTS ARE AVAILABLE TO PRESERVE THE LIFE OF YOUR LASHES

The Application Process

The application process is pain-free and relaxing. Clients can relax, rest and even fall asleep during the process

Client lies comfortably on the beauty bed, ensure the client is warm and offer a blanket

Tape will be applied to the bottom lashes to keep the lashes out of the way during application

Client closes the eyes and relaxes

Eyelash extensions are applied to each individual natural eyelash one at a time, depending on your experiences and the amount of lashes needed.

The application time generally takes between 60 – 90 minutes

Touch ups can be done in around 30 minutes

Why do you recommend using different, progressing lengths of eyelash extensions?

In order to provide your clients with a natural look and feel.

The shortest lashes should go on the interior corner of the eye, the longest lengths towards the middle, and intermediate lengths towards exterior corner of the eye.

How many eyelashes are used for each application?

Determined by the fullness preferred by the client, the length should also be taken into consideration.

Each client will desire a different look. This should be determined in consultation.

Generally the most basic look 40-50 lashes are needed on each eye.

For a full glamorous set you can use 60 or more eyelashes per eye.

How much do we charge for our services?

Please refer to the website or our treatment menu

What sizes, types and lengths are available?

On offer is a range of C-Curl lashes which are the shape of a C and J-Curl lashes which are the shape of a J.

Depending on your clients desired look you will determine which type are best suited.

It is also possible to use a combination of both to achieve a more fuller look on the tips of the lashes.

Sizes of lashes are measured in mm. Sizes range from 8mm – 15mm.

Lashes are also available in varying thickness such as .15, .2 and .25 being the thicker of the two. Again the decision to use either will be determined when assessing the client’s needs during a consultation
