Updated: October 23, 2018 As a Lash Stylist, I know the ins-and-outs of ensuring your eyelash extensions lasts as long as they should without causing any damage to your real lashes. Eyelash extensions are attached to each individual, adult hair on the eye. Our [real] eyelashes have their own growth cycle and the extensions grows out naturally with your own eyelashes.

Steps

  1. Arrive to your appointment with clean eyes. Be sure that your lashes are free of any makeup and/or oily residue. Not only does this speed up the application time, the adhesive will stick better to clean lashes
  2. After each application, whether it be your first full set of lashes or a refill, avoid getting your lashes wet for at least 48hrs. This means shower before your appointment and/or wash your hair & body separately.
  3. For 48hrs after your application, you should also avoid steam. No saunas, hot yoga, sweaty gym sessions, etc.
  4. Make sure the products you use are all OIL FREE. Oils in your makeup remover, skin care products, makeup, etc will breakdown the adhesive on your lashes. Ask your Lash Stylist for recommended products.
  5. Avoid waterproof makeup, especially mascara. This will also breakdown the adhesive and cause your extension to fall out prematurely.
  6. Do not pull or tug on your lashes. If they're criss-crossing, use a disposable mascara wand to comb through your lashes, root to end.
  7. Less is more. The less eye makeup you wear, the less your play with your lashes, the longer they will last.

Tips

  • When applied correctly, eyelash extensions should last approximately 2-3 weeks.

Warnings

  • Make sure you're going to a trust & certified Lash Stylist. The process must be completely hygienic and the adhesive used must be for intended use.
  • If your lashes are sore, have them removed. They were not applied correctly and could cause damage to your real lashes.
  • I've heard and seen some horror stories where the Lash Stylist did not have proper training and/or use the right adhesive (HINT: It's NOT weave glue)
