FAQs
1. What are Eyelash Extensions?
Eyelash extensions are a glamorous new way to extend the length and thickness of natural eyelashes. Lashes are made thicker and longer through the professional application of individual synthetic lashes with a specially formulated bonding agent. They are individual synthetic hairs that look just like your own.
2. What are 2D / 3D Volume Lash Extensions?
Our 2D / 3D Volume Lash Extensions are great for our clients looking for an extremely voluminous look. In comparison to our classic lash extensions, the technician will apply two or three light-weight lashes to one natural lash. The multiple lashes will not damage your natural eyelash because it is very light in weight. This new technique is also very popular with our clients who naturally have very sparse lashes as it will help build volume where there is none.
3. How long does it take to apply for Lash Extensions?
Depending on the look you select and the amount and length of your natural lashes the procedure may take about 2 hours.
4. When would I need a touch-up?
Lash extensions last through a full growth cycle of natural eyelashes, typically 4-6 weeks. Each person’s lash cycle varies therefore we suggest maintenance every 2-3 weeks to maintain a full look..
5. Will my natural lashes get harmed or damaged?
The biggest myth is that lash extensions ruin your own lashes. They do not. If applied correctly they are safe and do not ruin the health of your natural lashes. Be sure not to rub your eyes or tug in the extensions because this can cause lash loss and even damage hair growth.
6. How do they feel and look?
Since eyelash extensions are applied to one lash at a time, your new extension should feel like you are wearing mascara. They should not cause any discomfort. There are three main looks to choose from. Your lash specialist will help you determine which look is best for you.
