Lash Extension Q&A

Lash extensions are chosen for many different reasons.  Some women choose to have them applied prior to a vacation and don’t want to waste their time applying and reapplying mascara or risking it streaking.

Other women choose them for everyday where to give their naturally shorter or thinner lashes some volume and length.  Whatever the reason Lash Extensions are a great way to have fuller more becoming lashes.  They can be very natural or very dramatic.  It all depends on your personal style.

Question 4 – How long will they last?

With proper care and maintenance, Lash Extensions can last indefinitely.  On average they will last anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks, but with regular fills will last for months.

Question 5 – How do I care for them?

Proper care with lash extensions is a must.  First, you do not need to apply mascara once you have false lashes, so go ahead and avoid applying it as you will then have to clean it out of them and that will wear down the bond on the glue.

Second, avoid using makeup removers or cleansers on them that are oil based.  Oil will break down the glue and cause your lashes to fall out.

Third, don’t sleep on them.  It will break your real lashes and cause them to fall out, so make sure you don’t face plant into your pillow each night while you sleep.

Question 6 – Extensions vs False lashes, what’s the difference?

In appearance they can be very much the same, the difference however comes when you want to add life to the length of wear.  False lashes last for one day.  Usually no longer than that.  Extensions will last for a very long time.

Question 7 – Why wouldn’t I just use Latisse or something like that?

Lash Extensions will give you the long full lashes you want instantly, where as special products designed to lengthen your lashes, may or may not give you the desired results.  Generally you waste hundreds of dollars for little to no results.
