What are classic semi-permanent eyelash Extensions? Eyelash Extensions are individual hairs that lengthen and/or thicken the natural eyelashes with a single strand of silk, mink fur, fox fur, or synthetic eyelashes that are curved to replicate a natural eyelash. They are applied to individual eyelashes, one lash at a time, for a natural, elegant and luscious look. Eyelash extensions are perfect for special occasions as well as for every day wear. What are classic lashes? Classic lashes are applied in a 1:1 hair ratio. What are volume lashes? Volume lashes are applied in a 2-10:1 hair ratio in flair like clusters that are pre-made, or hand made. What do they look like and how do they feel? Depending on desired style of the set it can appear natural or dramatic. Eyelash extensions when applied correctly should feel like you are wearing your own natural lashes. The feel or softness of the lash will vary by fabric. What type of adhesive is used for eyelash extensions? Semi-permanent lashes, also known as individual eyelash extensions, are eyelashes applied with an adhesive which is usually cyanoacrylate. There are different types of cyanoacrylates including ethyl, methyl, butyl, and octyl, which is designed for bonding to different surfaces. Lash adhesives are made from methyl-2-cyanoacrylate which is designed to bond a smooth surface (the eyelash extension) to a porous surface (the natural eyelash). It is designed to be used around the eyes and on the natural lashes, but not on the skin which can cause irritation. How long do they last? The life of your lashes vary on an individual basis. The life of a set depends primarily on lifestyle, maintenance, and the natural growth cycle of your eyelashes. Touch-ups are recommended every 2-4 weeks to maintain the fullness of the initial set. Eyelash extension adhesives are specially formulated with a unique waterproof bonding agent enabling the client to get them wet. Other glues may not last as long because of an inferior bonding strength. One cannot guarantee a specific time frame of the life span of an individual's set. Can I swim, shower, exercise, or visit a spa while wearing lashes? Yes. Our specially formulated bonding agent allows you to shower, swim, exercise, sleep and spa worry-free while wearing Lashes . You can enjoy these lashes with little need to adjust your lifestyle. Please do not swim or spa for 48 hours after the procedure to allow the bonding agent to fully cure. How often should I get touch-ups? We recommend getting a touch up every two to four weeks. A natural eyelash falls off every 60 to 90 days on average due to the natural growth cycle and is naturally replaced with the growth of a new eyelash. At any given moment, each of your natural eyelashes is at a different stage of its life cycle. A touch up is needed to replenish the lashes that have completed their life cycle. Can I apply semi-permanent eyelash extensions to my own eyelashes? No. Only a trained professional will be able to safely apply Eyelash extensions. Unprofessional application or self-application may cause eye injury, clumpy, unnatural looking lashes, or damage to your own lashes.

DO NOT USE OIL-BASED OR WATER-PROOF MASCARA. Waterproof mascara along with any type of oil based mascara will dissolve the bonding agent and cause the lashes to fall off. Can you describe the application process? You will be comfortably reclined with your eyes closed while extensions are applied individually to your natural eyelashes.
