What
Are Eyelash Extensions?
Semi-Permanent Eyelash Extensions lengthen and thicken eyelashes
with single strands of 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
do they look like and how do they feel?
Semi-permanent Eyelash Extensions look and feel completely
real and natural.
How
long do Eyelash Extensions Last?
Individual semi-permanent Eyelash Extensions can last up to
2 months, depending on the natural growth cycle of your eyelashes.
You will probably want touch-ups every two to four weeks to
keep them looking perfect. The High Performance Bonding Agent
in our glue is specially formulated with a unique waterproof
bonding agent to last. Other glues may not last as long because
of an inferior bonding strength.
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 or
you may cause a loss of lashes prematurely.
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. Touch ups generally take a short
time and are relatively inexpensive.
Can
I apply SemiPermanent Synthetic Eyelashes 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 or clumpy, unnatural looking lashes.
Eyelash Extension specialists are trained and certified to
apply one lash at a time to your individual natural eyelashes
to achieve long, thick, luscious, and natural looking eyelashes.
The procedure involves bonding the synthetic extension to
your own natural eyelashes.
Can
I apply mascara to Lashes?
One of the main advantages of Eyelash Extensions is never
needing mascara again. However, if you must have the mascara
look, only water based mascara can be used. 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
Eyelash Extensions are applied individually to your natural
eyelashes. Depending on the experience of the professional
applying Lashes , it generally takes between 60 to 90 minutes
to apply one new set of Eyelash Extensions. The procedure
is so relaxing and comfortable that many clients fall asleep.
Touch-ups can be done in as little as 15 to 60 minutes, depending
on the quantity needed for the fill.
How
much does it cost for an application of Lashes ?
Depending on your location and the amount of eyelash extensions
needed, professionals are currently charging between $250
and $600 per application. At Kathryn Dean Clinical Skin Care
and Makeover Studio, you can get your initial mascara looking
set for $150. Refills range from $55 (Mascara Look Refill
up to 25 lashes per eye) to $75 (Dramatic Look Refill 26 or
more lashes per eye). Click on the "specials tab"
for additional refill package pricing and monthly specials.
Who
uses Eyelash Extensions?
Hollywood has long since enjoyed extending their beauty with
Eyelash Extensions. Models and actors have been using eyelash
extensions for years. Now, you can have them too. Because
they look so real, anyone could be wearing them and you would
never know! Be the first in your area to wear eyelash extensions.
Men can wear them too! A special clear glue is used to bond
the lashes and emulates a natural looking, longer and/or thicker
eyelash. Blondes and readheads love eyelash extensions, as
they make their natural eyelashes look black and stand out
without having to use any tint.
Is
the product FDA approved? Is it safe?
Currently the FDA is not regulating eyelash extensions because
the eyelash extensions are applied to the natural eyelash
hairs and do not touch the skin. The primary ingredient in
our Luscious Lashes glue is the same ingredient used by plastic
surgeons in the U.S. for suture-less wound closure. The application
process is pain-free and relaxing. Some of the stronger adhesives
tend to emit fumes that can irritate the eyes during application.
If you have sensitive eyes, please let us know so that we
can take special precautions with the adhesives and removers.
In fact, many clients fall asleep during the procedure. However,
improper application by an unqualified technician can cause
damage to your eyes and eyelids. Do not trust your eyes to
just anyone!
