Are eyelash extensions safe?
Yes. The eyelash extensions are applied with a surgical grade adhesive formulated with the same ingredient used in suture-less wound surgeries. The application is a safe, pain-free procedure that does not damage your eyes, eye-lids or lashes.
I pull out my own natural lashes, can I replace them with Individuals?
Individuals lash extensions need to be attached to your own natural lashes. The adhesive is formulated to attach to hair, therefore the glue will not adhere to your skin, only your natural lash. You will not be a good client for lash extensions since you pull out your lashes in patches or clumps. You may try an eyelash strip since they attach to the upper eyelid skin,
Can I use an eyelash curler to curl my individual lash extensions?
No, an eyelash curler will weaken and cause them to lift and come off.
Can I wear mascara?
Yes, but we recommend you use mascara formulated for extensions. Mascara will also shorten the life of your lash extensions. We suggest purchase our xtreme lashes mascara specifically made for these Extentions
Can I still wear I makeup?
Yes, but you don't NEED mascara and you may find that you won't need eyeliner. You may still use mascara, eyeliner and eye shadow, but remember to clean remove with a product that does not contain oil of any kind as this will affect the glue. xtreme lashes carries after care products that will help extend the life of your individual lash extensions.
Will you provide me with aftercare instructions?
Yes, all clients receive aftercare instruction cards after each visit.
How long and thick will they make my lashes?
On average, the extensions can make your lashes anywhere from 20% to 50% longer than your own lashes. However, the longer, the thicker, and more dramatic a curl we use the more likely your eyelash extensions will twist and turn. For optimal results it is suggested to use a natural length, thickness, and curl.
FAQ
LASHES
HOW DO I PREPARE FOR MY EYELASH EXTENSION APPOINTMENT?
- Come in with a very clean face/hair. Avoid Caffeine.
- Remove all eye make-up at least one hour prior to your appointment.
- Avoid waterproof mascara at least 2 days prior to your appointment.
- If you wear contact lenses, bring your case to put lenses in before the application process and bring your regular eyeglasses for afterwards.
- Shower the morning of your appointment (lashes shouldn't get wet for 48 hours after application,
so showering right before your appointment is best!).
How long will my Eyelash Extensions last?
Eyelash extensions are semi-permanent because the life cycle of a natural lash is typically two to three months, during which time it grows, remains "at rest," and then falls out. Once it falls out, it is replaced by the growth of a new lash. At any given moment, your lashes are at different stages in their life cycle, which is why touch-ups should be performed to maintain your desired look. If your hair and nails grow quickly then that means that your lashes will also be growing, shedding and renewing themselves quickly. You may find that your lashes may not last as long as someone with slow hair growth. Your lifestyle and the type of work you do will also have a bearing on how long they will last.Lash extensions can be continued indefinitely as long as you'd like, and professionally removed at any time. Some clients have been wearing extensions consistently for several years!
What is the eyelash extension service procedure?
You will be comfortably reclined with your eyes closed during the entire procedure. Your bottom lashes will be protected with a firming under eye gel pad. Your technician will isolate each of your natural eyelashes and attach one synthetic eyelash with a tiny amount of medical grade adhesive, without touching your skin. The initial application generally totals a little under 120 minutes including your consultation, with each lash touch-up completed in as little as 60 minutes. It is completely painless, and so relaxing that most of our clients take a nap, then awaken to beautiful, fuller eyelashes. That's real beauty sleep!
