    Do eyelash extensions make my own lashes fall out?

    No eyelash extensions will not make your own natural lashes fall out. Your own eyelashes has its own growth cycle and will fall out naturally. People lose on average 3-5 lashes a day. We advise not to pick, pull or rub your lashes as this will cause your lashes to fall out prematurely. You should not attempt to remove lash extensions by yourself, or with any product. The procedure requires lash extensions to be professionally removed.

    Do you supply a full selection of lash lengths and thicknesses?

    Yes - I offer a tailor made service to enhance your eyeshape and meet your needs, using a comprehensive range of lashes. Available in 1mm increments from 7mm up to 15mm lengths and in 3 various thicknesses. Fine, Thick and Extra thick. I also have the full range of lash curve which will enable me to create the right image for you according to your lifestyle and preference.

    Can I still wear eye makeup?

    You can still wear eye make-up but it is important not use any oil based make-up. The properties in oil-based products will loosen the bonding of the eyelashes. It is also best to avoid creams and make-up removers which contain oil as these will cause the eyelash extensions to fall off your natural lashes.

    Can I wear mascara?

    You can wear mascara but avoid wearing mascara for the first week and do not use waterproof mascara as the properties in waterproof mascara will break down the bonding glue. Ideally mascara should be used on the ends of the eyelash.

    Can I curl or perm eyelash extensions?

    To maintain your eyelash extensions avoid curling, perming and tinting your lashes.

    How long do they last?

    The average eyelash cycle lasts between 45-90 days however factors such as lifestyle and general after care will affect how long the lashes last, so regular retouches are recommended to keep your eyes looking stunning.

    What are in-fills, why do I need them and how often do I need them?

    Naturally your lashes will fall out and new eyelashes will grow to replace the ones that have fallen out. To maintain beautiful long lashes infills will be needed to replace the lost lashes.

    Do I have to get a full set of eyelash extensions?

    A full set of eyelash extensions is recommended for a fuller glamourous effect although half sets are available for a more natural eyelash effect.

    Are the eyelash extensions glued to my skin?

    The eyelash extensions are not glued onto the skin, only on your natural lash.

    Is the eyelash glue and glue remover safe?

    Yes we only use quality and CE Approved products, both are perfectly safe . There is a certain amount of eyelash adhesive material which will be used to attach the artificial lashes to the existing eyelashes. During or after the procedure adhesive material may become dislodged which may irritate the eyes, in which case the eye should be flushed with water and in rare cases further follow-up care may be needed.

     

    Your extensions will last the entire life cycle of your own lashes and depending on how well you look after them. Clients usually return between 2- 5 weeks before having their first maintenance.

    To prolong the life of your lashes after treatment

    First 24 hours:
  • Do not allow water, sweat, oils or creams to come in contact with your new lashes.

    • First 36 hours:
  • Although lashes may come in contact with water, in the first 36 hours only please refrain from any facial treatments which uses steam or hot water on your face, and avoid steam baths.

    • After 48 hours:
  • You may swim and shower without worrying about your lashes.
  • You may occasionally visit the sauna or steam rooms. However going on a daily basis may cause earlier maintenance as the lashes could prematurely fall off or tilt in a different direction from your natural lash
  • You may use a special water based mascara on the lash tip, however you would probably not need to use this for at least two weeks. (Water based mascara is available to buy from us, please ask
