Classic Extensions
Classic eyelash extensions are simple, beautiful, and natural-looking. They are applied on a 1:1 ratio, which means one extension is attached to one natural lash. This allows you to achieve a natural enhancement and is best for those with lots of lashes that are too short or straight.
Fills are required every 2-3 weeks to keep the look of extensions full.
BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT
• If you use waterproof mascara, STOP using it 2-3 days before your first appointment. The film it leaves on your lashes may prevent the extensions from adhering correctly
• Avoid caffeine, as this can cause fluttering and twitching of the eye which could lead to burning and discomfort from the adhesive
• Arrive to your appointment with dry, clean lashes and makeup-free eyes
• Remove contact lenses before your appointment
• Be prepared to lie down with your eyes closed for 2 hours for the first appointment.
• Do not get your lashes wet for 24 hours after the lash extensions are applied. It will affect the efficacy of the adhesive. Avoid steam from showers, facials, saunas and swimming pools
EYELASH EXTENSION CARE GENERAL GUIDELINES TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR LASHES:
• Avoid using oil-based skin care and makeup products around the eye, including mascara and makeup remover.
• Wash around the eye area with the recommended lash cleanser, even if you are not wearing eye makeup. Natural oils produced in the skin can affect the adhesive, so it needs to be cleansed daily. I have a lash cleanser with brush if you need on for $15 which will last for up to 4-6 months.
• Avoid rubbing your eyes or lashes, especially when washing your face. It is recommended to clean around the eye area with a washcloth or cotton swab
• Do not use an eyelash curler – it will pull off the lashes. One of the benefits of lash extensions is the ability to add curl to your lashes. If you would like more curl, please speak to your lash technician
• If you can, sleep on your back to avoid the risk of your lashes rubbing against your pillow
• Gently brush your lashes with a clean mascara wand to groom them – once or twice a day is sufficient, do not over brush. The best time do this is after showering, as they will be softer and less likely to damage.
• Never trim your eyelashes. If you want them shorter, let your technician know at next appointment
• Avoid pulling your lashes, and do not attempt to remove yourself. If you would like them removed, please contact your lash technician
• Most eyeliners will be okay to use, except for gel pencil liners because they tend to be oily
• No cotton balls may be used around lashes
• If you experience any pain, redness or irritation, contact your technician immediately
• If you choose to use products outside those recommended by your lash specialist, you do so at your own risk

Hybrid Extensions
Hybrid lashes are a mixture of both classic lashes and volume lashes. Volume lashes are when more extensions are applied to a single lash. Hybrid is the best of both worlds and will create a longer and fuller effect to your natural lashes.
Fills are required every 2-3 weeks to keep the look of extensions full.

Keratin Lash Lift
The Keratin Lash Lift treatment is a semi-permanent lift of your natural lashes using a gentle perm creating a beautiful and natural eye opening effect. Results last 6-8 weeks or until your eyelashes have naturally grown out. Add a tint for a more dramatic effect. Lash lifting is best for those who have a fuller/longer natural lashes.
BEFORE YOU ARRIVE:
Do not consume any caffeinated beverages before your appointment. Caffeine can cause your eyes to flutter during an appointment. Please plan to arrive 5 minutes prior to your appointment time to update all necessary consultation forms and prepare for your appointment to begin on time. Please make sure to arrive without contacts, concealer, eye makeup (mascara, eyeliner, eyeshadow etc.) on the day of your appointment. avoid curling your natural lashes with a lash curler for 24 hours prior to your appointment. Makeup removal will result in time being taken from lashing and a removal fee of $10 will be added to the service.
AFTERCARE:
DO
• USE A LASH SERUM. It's recommended to use a lash serum to help your lashes grow longer and strong. This will help give you amazing looking lashes. I have one available if you are interested in buying one.
• Comb your lashes after you wet them to help them fall into place.
DON'T
• DO NOT WET your lashes for 24 hours after the appointment
• DO NOT SLEEP with your face laid on the pillow. You must sleep on your back for 24 hours. Your lashes are prone to kinks within 24 hours after the procedure.
• DO NOT PULL your lashes. This can cause your natural lashes to fall out prematurely and cause both breakage and permanent damage to the hair follicle
