What are eyelash extensions?

Eyelash extensions are a lightweight individual synthetic lash curled to look like a natural eyelash. They are thicker at the base and taper to a fine point which adds length, curl, and thickness to your own lashes. They are individually applied one by one to your natural lashes using a semi-permanent bonding agent. Eyelash extensions is a very intricate service that requires precision and skill that requires a licensed and trained professional. At Luxe Lash we are licensed, trained and certified in multiple lash companies and have years of experience. We uphold the best standards in lash application and stand behind our meticulous work to provide the best in luxury eyelash services.

How long do eyelash extensions last?

Natural eyelashes have a lifespan and growth cycle. They grow to a specific length before shedding and the eyelash extensions will fall out along with your natural lash cycle. With proper care your eyelash extensions will last as long as your own natural eyelash, and are maintained with routine fills. To keep your lashes lush and full we recommend getting regular fills. We provide a variety of fills to suit your needs.

How often should I get fills?

Depending on your own personal lash growth and preference of fullness determines how frequently you will need fills. To maintain your lashes requires regular fills. We recommend every 2 weeks to keep your lashes looking lush and full.We offer lash fills in 30, 60, and 90 minute increments. If you desire the most fullness, 90 minutes is recommended.

Will it damage my natural lashes?

With proper application eyelash extensions will not damage your natural lashes. Your lashes are continuously shedding and grow back in 4-6 week cycles and the extension falls off with your natural lash cycle. At Luxe Lash we customize the extensions and safely apply them in appropriate lengths to ensure no damage to your natural lashes.

How long does it take?

A Classic Full Set typically can take up to 1 1/2 hours. A Volume Full set can typically take up to 2-2 1/2 hours. Everyone has a different amount of lashes and each lash set is customized differently according to the lash look and style that you prefer.

How do I know if I can wear eyelash extensions?

Almost anyone can enjoy the benefit of eyelash extensions but certain conditions can make them inappropriate for you. If one or more of the following conditions applies to you, you may not be a good candidate for eyelash extensions.

If you rub your eyes frequently:

If you suffer from seasonal allergies or just find you tend to rub your eyes excessively. We recommend no rubbing, picking or pulling.

Sensitive skin:

Although eyelash extensions are NOT applied to the skin, allergic reactions are possible from the adhesive, under eye gel pads or the latex-free tape. Please inform your eyelash stylist if you have any allergies or if you have any possible skin irritations.

Lasik eye surgery:

You must wait at least 4 weeks and seek your doctor’s approval prior to getting eyelash extensions.

Eyelift:

It is recommended to wait 4-6 months after the operation and seek a doctor’s approval.

Medical illnesses:

Common colds, sinus infections can cause irritation and/or eye secretions which can cause inadequate bonding of the adhesive and premature loss of your eyelash extensions. You suffer from other medical illnesses, or are undergoing chemotherapy or other medical treatments.

Conditions that affect eyelash growth:

You have no natural eyelashes, or suffer from any conditions that affect eyelash growth. Since eyelashes extensions are applied to your own natural lashes you must have lashes in order to apply the extensions.

Wearing eyelash extensions could possibly be a challenge. Infills must be kept up since it can cause lash loss or weak lashes.

How do I care for them?

It is necessary to brush your lashes and clean your lashes daily to prevent any eye irritation, infection, blepharitis or other eye health issues. We recommend using and retail an oil-free lash and makeup cleanser to keep your lashes healthy and clean. Please follow the recommended after-care instructions as advised.
