-
Come with no eye makeup on and with your eyes
-
Thoroughly clean lashes at least 3 hours prior to your scheduled appointment.
-
If you wear contacts, we recommend that you please wear glasses to your appointment
Post Lash Extension Care
-
Keep your lashes dry and avoid touching them.
-
After twenty-four hours, care is fairly simple: avoid oil bases products, cleanse your lashes regularly and be gentle with the lashes.
-
Be gentle to your lashes; do not pull on the extensions or rub the eyes excessively.
-
Groom your lashes as needed with a clean mascara wand, preferrably when wet
-
For the first 48-hours after application the lashes should not be exposed to water or steam
-
Avoid swimming and the spa for 48 hours after lash application for best results.
-
Avoid the use of oil-based products on or around the eyelashes and do not use waterproof mascara.
-
Airbrush tanning should be done 24-hours prior to your eyelash appointment.
-
Let skin care providers know about your Eyelash Extensions and use caution when using steam, acid/peels, laser or hydroxyl treatments.
-
Use powdered, liquid or gel eyeliners. Pencils (unless specially formulated for Eyelash Extensions) tend to leave an oily residue which could loosen the bond.
-
Apply Protective Coating once or twice per week on your new lashes to preserve the look and to extend the life of your eyelash extensions.
-
Please schedule relash appointments accordingly. Due to the natural life cycle of your natural lashes and your own lifestyle you can expect to need refills every 2-3 weeks.
Can I swim, shower, exercise or visit a spa while wearing eyelash extensions?
You can enjoy these eyelashes with little need to adjust your lifestyle. Provided you follow the simple after care instructions and are not excessively exposed to heat or moisture, they will last through your natural lash cycle and fall off with the natural lash, not before. You can swim, shower and spa as usually so long as these activities are not engaged in excessively. (Please do not swim or spa for 48-hours after the procedure to allow the adhesive to fully bond.)
Can I apply mascara to eyelash extensions?
Indeed, one of the main advantages of eyelash extensions is that you never need mascara again. However, if you must have a mascara-look, only water-based mascara can be used. You can purchase a specially formulated eyelash extensions mascaras from our spa. DO NOT USE OIL-BASED OR WATER-PROOF MASCARA. Waterproof mascara along with any type of oil-based mascara will dissolve the bond and cause the eyelash extensions to fall off. If you choose, wear a water-based mascara, apply it on the tips only!
