FAQ
Here's a detailed description of lash extensions:
-
Materials: Lash extensions are typically made from synthetic materials like synthetic silk or synthetic mink. These materials are lightweight and have a natural sheen, resembling the look of real lashes.
-
Length and Diameter: Classic lash extensions come in various lengths and diameters to cater to different preferences and eye shapes. The length and thickness can be customized to achieve a specific desired look, ranging from a subtle, natural enhancement to a more dramatic, glamorous effect.
-
Application: A certified esthetician usually performs the application of classic lash extensions. The process is meticulous and time-consuming, typically taking between one to three hours for a full set. The technician will isolate a single natural eyelash using specialized tools and then carefully attach an individual lash extension using a high-quality adhesive. This process is repeated for each natural lash.
-
Safety: It's crucial to have lash extensions applied by a trained professional to ensure the safety and comfort of the client. The technician should use high-quality, hypoallergenic adhesives to minimize the risk of irritation or allergic reactions.
-
Maintenance: Classic lash extensions require regular maintenance to keep them looking their best. Clients may need to schedule "fill" appointments every 2-4 weeks, during which the technician replaces any extensions that have naturally shed or grown out.
-
Natural Appearance: When applied correctly, classic lash extensions should look natural and seamless, blending in with the client's natural lashes. They are designed to enhance the eyes without appearing overly artificial.
-
Water and Makeup: Classic lash extensions are water-resistant, allowing clients to swim and shower without worrying about them coming off. However, it's advisable to avoid oil-based makeup and makeup removers, as these can weaken the adhesive bond.
-
Lifespan: The lifespan of classic lash extensions varies depending on factors such as the individual's natural lash growth cycle and how well they care for their extensions. On average, they can last anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks, but regular fills can extend their longevity.
-
Removal: If a client wishes to remove their classic lash extensions or if they experience any discomfort, it's important to have them removed by a professional to prevent damage to the natural lashes.
Classic lash extensions offer a convenient way to achieve longer, fuller eyelashes without the need for daily mascara or strip lashes. However, it's essential to maintain them properly and follow aftercare instructions to ensure they remain in good condition and don't cause harm to the natural lashes.
