Pros & Cons to Eyelash Extensions

Let's talk eyelash extensions! I have been asked a ton of questions about lash extensions...

🌸 How long do they last? That's up to you! A full set can last up to 4 weeks...big emphasis on the "can". At home care plays a BIG role on the retention. Not to mention you lose around 21 of your own natural lashes in just one week!!!

🌸 How often do I need fills? Again, this is up to you! Want constant ...full lashes, then you will probably need fills once a week! Most clients extend there fills to 2-3 weeks. Only you can be the judge of that! After 4 weeks, usually a full set will be required!

🌸 How long is the procedure? For a full set 3-4 hours! For a fill anywhere between 1-3 hours!

Below covers pros AND cons of eyelash extensions and hopefully answers any additional questions! 👍PRO and 👎CON

👍 Glamour for Special Occasions: One advantage of false lashes is that they can deliver a glamorous “pop” unlike anything you could ever get with your real lashes and makeup alone 😍

👎 Glue: Let's face it, glue is messy, and the kind that comes with false lashes is no exception. Not only might you get it stuck to your fingers if doing it at home, but even technicians aren't perfect, and might have an accident and get glue somewhere you don't want it. 😱

👍 Convenience: Sick of having to apply mascara every single day? Well, lash extensions definitely transform your lashes into a thick, full, luscious lashes! 🤘

👎 Potential Damage: False eyelashes can look amazing, but they come with the risk of potentially hurting your real lashes. The weight they put on your natural lashes can increase lash fallout, and the glue can make lashes brittle, leading to breakage. 😰

👍 Optional desired looks: Eyelash extensions now come in all kinds of styles, colors, and materials, each uniquely suited for a particular look, meaning there's something for just about everyone and any occasion. 💁🏻

👍👎Cost and Maintenance: If you want falsies, be prepared that it's a commitment in more ways than one. Special cleaning regimen, keeping them brushed nicely and even drying them when they get wet!!! Fills are done every 1-4 weeks...eyelash extensions are similar to getting your nails done every couple weeks! 💅🏻

So while eyelash extensions can give you a beautiful glamorous look daily 👸🏻, it's important clients understand just what they are signing up for 🤷‍♀️! From personal experience, I LOVE having lash extensions, I love how they look and honestly I barely wear any eye makeup because of them BUT they are high maintenance 😳! No sugar coating it! But to me, personally, the pros outweigh the cons! 👍Only you know the answer for you! If you're not sure about extensions, ask me about Lash Lift procedure! Results last 4-8 weeks, best part, its your own lashes! No extensions or glue and very low maintenance!!!
