Please read the entire page before booking your appointment to ensure you are a suitable candidate for the services offered. This will help you be fully prepared for your appointment and achieve the best possible results. As an artist, I take this process very seriously.
What Are Lash Extensions?
Lash extensions are individual synthetic, silk, or mink lashes that are applied directly to your natural lashes using a semi-permanent adhesive.
How Long Do Lash Extensions Last?
Lash extensions typically last between 2.5 to 3 weeks before you need a fill. Depending on various factors such as the growth cycle of your natural lashes, the type of adhesive used and how well they are maintained. To keep them looking their best, it's important to follow proper aftercare procedures, such as avoiding oil-based products, refraining from rubbing your eyes, and cleaning your lashes 1 to 2 x day. Regular touch-ups, usually every two to three weeks, can also help maintain the fullness and length of your extensions.
What is
What is a Fill?
A lash extension fill appointment is a maintenance session designed to replace or replenish eyelash extensions that have fallen out or grown out over time. During this appointment, a lash technician will assess the current state of your extensions, remove any extensions that are loose or grown out, and apply new extensions to areas where they are sparse. This helps to maintain the full, voluminous look of your lash extensions without needing a complete new set. Typically, fill appointments are recommended every 2-3 weeks to keep your lashes looking their best.
*Fun Fact we loose 2 - 5 natural lashes per day
How Long Does The Procedure Take?
Initial procedure - typically takes around 1.5 - 2.5 hours, which includes Medical History, finalizing the details of the consultation, Lash cleanse, facial analysis, lash mapping, and the actual application of the lash extensions.
Fills - Normally take about 1.5 hours which includes reviewing your Medical History, removing any outgrown lash extensions, replacing the lash extensions that have been removed and placing lash extensions on new growth of natural lashes
*These are estimated times, the style and the amount of natural lashes you have does have an effect on the length of the procedure.
Is It Painful?
Lash extensions should not feel painful at any time. If you are experiencing uncomfortableness, let your technician know immediately so that any issues can be resolved
