LASH EXTENSIONS

Get incredible length and volume with lash extensions in a variety of styles - classic, hybrid or volume techniques. 

Professionally applied & fitted, these extensions can lengthen, fill and thicken sparse, thin or short natural lashes, giving you a bolder, fuller or more dramatic look.

​

CLASSIC

A single lash is added to each of your own healthy natural lashes to give length and thickness, like wearing mascara. The most natural and minimal style.

​

​

HYBRID

1-3 extensions are placed on each of your own natural lashes, giving a light, airy and slightly fuller look than classic lash extensions, but less full than volume lash extensions.

​

​

VOLUME

3-5 extensions are attached to each healthy natural lash to give more dimension and texture. Lashes will look much fuller and bolder.

​

 

MEGA VOLUME

5-15 extensions are placed on each of your own natural lashes to give a bolder, fuller, more dramatic and noticeable look.

​

​

THE BENEFITS OF LASH EXTENSIONS

  • Look good 24/7 – wake up that way

  • Water resistant (beneficial for those with active lifestyles or oily skin that cause mascara to smudge and wear off quickly)

  • Convenience – saves time doing your own lashes and there is no clean up

  • Removes difficulties of makeup or false lash application (if you have bad vision or unsteady hands); no clumpy glue from fake lashes

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

DO THEY HURT?

Eyelash extensions should not hurt or cause discomfort when applied correctly. It is important to go to a trusted lash artist who was certified through a reputable course as this will ensure that they are applying the correct weight and length of lashes to your natural lash, so as not to damage them.

WILL MY NATURAL LASHES BE DAMAGED?

When applied correctly, eyelash extensions do not damage your natural lash.  One extension will be applied to your natural lash for a classic look or fans will be applied for a volume look; the technician will apply the appropriate weight and length to ensure the integrity of your natural lash. The lash adhesive will not irritate the eyes nor damage the natural lash; it is created specifically for human lashes and is formaldehyde free.

HOW LONG DO RESULTS LAST?

Most eyelash extension adhesives have a bond time of anywhere from 4-8 weeks therefore, they will only last as long as your natural lash does. Like all hair on the human body, your eyelashes grow in stages.  It is normal to lose 1-6 natural lashes per day which is why a fill is recommended every 2-4 weeks. Results vary with each client. 

​

We may also experience more lash shedding at certain points due to these possible factors:

​

  • Travel (airlines are notorious for dry air – which could dry out the glue bond).

  • New medications (the chemistry in our bodies change and could cause our hair or oil production to change too).

  • Excessive exercise/perspiration (this can erode the lash bond due to oil and sweat staying on the bond too long).

  • Hormones/Monthly Cycle (due to chemistry, we could loose more frequently during “that time”. Also, if we are low in estrogen or progesterone, this could also affect our retention).

  • General seasonal shedding - happens 2-3 times/year - typically lasts about 4-6 weeks at a time.

  • General cleaning - be gentle when washing your lashes - while they are bonded, they are still delicate.

WHAT WILL THE FINAL RESULT LOOK LIKE?

Eyelash extensions can be applied to look anyway that you desire. Typically speaking, eyelash extensions don’t look fake unless that is the look that you are going for. We can do a natural or glamourous look, a cat eye style or something that really opens up your eyes.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING THE TREATMENT?

​After cleaning and priming your lashes, your bottom lashes are protected with an eye pad or medical tape. Lashes are then applied one by one when you are lying down using a specially formulated, semi-permanent glue. The procedure is non-invasive and usually takes about 1.5-2 hours for a fill and about 3-3.5 hours for a new set. It's very relaxing to the point that many fall asleep.

HOW DO I PREPARE FOR MY TREATMENT?

  • Please arrive without any eye makeup, foundation or heavy creams as this will minimize cleanup time and allow more time for applying the extensions.

  • You will need to keep your lashes dry for 24 hours after application so it is a good idea to have your hair washed prior to your appointment.

  • Please remove contact lenses prior to your appointment for eye safety during the procedure; wear glasses instead.

  • Ensure any chemical treatments (lash lifts or lash tints) have been done more than 48 hours prior.

  • Ensure you have allowed at least 4 weeks healing time from any permanent makeup procedures you may have received (brows or eyeliner). 

  • Please ensure you are not travelling within 48 hours from a dry to humid climate or a humid to dry climate as this can affect the bonding of the lash glue initially and may cause lashes to fall out more quickly (ie - going somewhere tropical during the winter time).

Yes - the bonding agent we use is waterproof and allows you to do all the above. Special care is required, but overall maintenance is low. We recommend however, that you do not wash your eye area for at least 24 hours after the eyelash application. You can use water based mascara if you desire. Do not use oil based or water proof mascara as these can dissolve the bonding agent and shorten the life of your eyelash extensions causing them to fall sooner. Care also needs to be taken in washing off the mascara; only use a water based eye makeup remover. 

WHO IS NOT A CANDIDATE FOR LASH EXTENSIONS?

  • Those with acute or pre-existing eyelid or eye conditions or irritations (blepharitis, ocular rosacea, herpes, stye, swelling, cuts, sores, etc).

  • Those with allergies to acrylates or cyanoacrylates (adhesives).

  • Those that are very rough with themselves and do not want to follow after care instructions​.

  • Those with Trichotillomania (compulsive pulling or twisting of hair or eyelashes).

  • Those who are in chlorinated water several times per week.

  • Those who cannot control rubbing their eyes or frequently touching their lashes.

  • Those with epilepsy/seizure disorder.

  • Those with extreme or uncontrolled asthma, or bad hay fever.

  • Those who have received permanent eyeliner within the last 4 weeks.

  • Those who have had any eye surgery in the last 4 weeks.

  • Those who have undergone chemotherapy in the past 6 months.

  • Those who cannot lay flat on their backs for several hours due to discomfort (potentially with late stage pregnancy)
