Brows and Lashes

Lash extensions are a popular cosmetic procedure to enhance the length, curl, fullness, and overall appearance of natural eyelashes. There are several types of lash extensions, each with distinct features and application methods. Here are some common types of lash extensions:

1. Classic Lash Extensions: Classic lash extensions involve applying a single extension fiber to each individual natural lash. This technique provides a more natural and subtle enhancement, giving the appearance of mascara without the need for daily makeup.
2. Volume Lash Extensions: Volume lash extensions involve attaching multiple lightweight extension fibers (2-6 ultra-fine extensions) to each natural lash, creating a fuller, more voluminous look. This technique provides a dramatic and glamorous effect for special occasions or for those seeking a bold appearance.
3. Hybrid Lash Extensions: Hybrid lash extensions combine elements of both classic and volume techniques. This involves a mix of single extensions and lightweight volume fans to achieve a customized, balanced look, offering the best of both worlds—natural and voluminous.
4. Mega Volume Lash Extensions: Mega volume lash extensions take the Russian volume technique to an extreme, attaching an even higher number of ultra-fine extension fibers (up to 16 extensions) to a single natural lash. This technique is for those who desire an exceptionally bold and full lash look.
5. Coloured Lash Extensions: Coloured lash extensions involve extensions with vibrant or subtle colors, providing an artistic and playful look. These extensions can be applied in classic, volume, or hybrid styles, offering versatility in creating unique lash looks.

When considering lash extensions, it’s important to consult with a certified and experienced lash technician to determine the best type of extensions based on your desired look, natural lashes, and overall eye shape. Proper application and aftercare are crucial for achieving the desired results and maintaining healthy natural lashes.

1. Avoid Water and Steam for 24-48 Hours: Refrain from exposing the lashes to water, steam, or excessive humidity for at least the first 24-48 hours after the lash extension application. This allows the adhesive to fully cure and bond the extensions.
2. Be Gentle with Your Lashes: Avoid rubbing or pulling at your lashes. Instead, be gentle when cleaning or touching them to prevent damage or premature shedding of the extensions.
3. Avoid Oil-Based Products: Steer clear of oil-based makeup removers, cleansers, and skincare products around the eye area, as they can weaken the adhesive and cause the lashes to fall out prematurely.
4. Use Oil-Free Makeup and Cleansers: Opt for oil-free makeup products, cleansers, and eye makeup removers to keep the lash adhesive intact and prevent any interference with the extensions.
5. Brush Your Lashes Daily: Gently brush your lashes with a clean mascara wand or lash brush daily to keep them organized and prevent any tangling. Do this in the morning and before bed.
6. Avoid Sleeping on Your Face: Try to sleep on your back or on your side to prevent friction or pressure on the lashes. Avoid burying your face in the pillow, as it can cause the lashes to bend or lose shape.
7. Do Not Pull or Pick at the Extensions: Refrain from picking, pulling, or twisting the extensions, as this can damage your natural lashes and may cause the extensions to fall off prematurely.
8. Avoid Touching Your Lashes Often: Minimize touching, playing with, or twisting your lashes to extend their lifespan. The less you touch them, the longer they will last.
9. Regular Lash Fills: Schedule regular lash fill appointments to maintain the desired fullness and length. Lash fills are typically needed every 2-3 weeks to replace lost or outgrown lashes.
10. Protect Lashes During Activities: During activities such as swimming or exercising, try to keep your face dry and avoid excessive sweating to ensure the longevity of the lash extensions.
11. Inform Your Technician of Any Issues: If you experience any discomfort, irritation, or allergic reactions, contact your lash technician immediately. They can provide guidance or recommend suitable actions.
