What to do before & after your appointment
LASHES
Lash appointment prep
01.
Before your appointment, please take a moment at home to thoroughly cleanse your eyes. Ensure all makeup and residue are completely removed, as even small traces can affect the retention of lash extensions or the results of a lash lift.
02.
Please refrain from applying creams or makeup around the eye area on the day of your appointment. This helps prevent oil transfer and ensures optimal adhesion for any products applied to your skin or lashes.
03.
Please reduce or avoid consuming caffeine before your appointment to help prevent restlessness, sudden movements, or frequent bathroom breaks.
04.
Please refrain from chewing gum during your appointment to reduce facial movement.
Lash extension aftercare
01.
Keep lash extensions away from direct exposure to extreme heat, such as blow dryers, stoves, ovens, bonfires, BBQ grills, lighters, etc. High heat can singe the extensions or cause them to lose their curl.
02.
Refrain from touching or rubbing your extensions, especially with unwashed hands, as this can lead to eye infections and cause the extensions to shed prematurely.
03.
Refrain from picking or pulling at your extensions to avoid premature shedding and gaps in your lash line.
04.
Try to sleep on your back to prevent pressure on your extensions, which can alter the natural lash's growth direction or cause the extensions to detach.
05.
Avoid heavy oil-based products around the eye area as oils can weaken the adhesive bond.
06.
Do not use mascara, gel liners, or pencil liners on the extensions or lash line, as they are incompatible with lash extensions. Instead, opt for black eyeshadow powder or liquid liner for a lash-safe alternative.
07.
Clean your lash extensions regularly with an oil-free cleanser to maintain hygiene and extend their lifespan. Wash every night if you wear makeup and every other night if you don’t. Be sure to cleanse after workouts or sweating, pat dry gently, and brush through to separate the lashes.
08.
Brush your lashes daily or as needed to keep them neat and free of debris.
09.
Schedule refills every two to three weeks to maintain a full, polished look.
Lash lift aftercare
01.
Protect your lash lift for the first 24 hours. Keep your lashes completely dry and avoid exposure to high humidity to maintain their shape.
02.
Support the lift throughout the day. Brush your lashes upward once an hour to help preserve their placement as they set.
03.
Mind your sleeping position. Avoid sleeping directly on your lashes, as this can permanently alter their shape, even beyond the initial 24-hour setting period.
04.
Choose gentle eye products. Stay away from waterproof mascara to avoid disrupting the shape.
05.
After washing your eyes, apply an occlusive like castor oil to damp lashes to lock in moisture. This keeps them soft, strong, and healthy. Castor oil is particularly beneficial for improving lash length, thickness, and strength.
06.
Use a lash serum at the roots for added nourishment, especially if your lashes are fine or short. This can also enhance the results of future lash lifts.
07.
If your lashes lose their shape or placement within the first 24 hours, reach out immediately for assistance.
