How long will a set of Eyelash Extensions Last?When applied properly, eyelash extensions will last the length of the natural growth cycle of your eyelashes. Everyone's experience will differ based on day to day activities but overall touchups should only be required every 2 to 3 weeks. A special waterproof bonding agent is used. Glue does not contain any fumes or irritants and is long lasting.

How often should I get touch-ups?We recommend getting a touch up every 2 to 3 weeks. If you wait too long your eyelash extensions will fall out and you will require a full set. Your natural eyelashes fall off every 45 - 60 days due to the natural growth cycle and are naturally replaced with the growth of a new eyelash. Other factors such as exposure to steam or touching your eyes a lot may cause the extensions to fall sooner. A touch up is needed to fill in any lashes that fallen. Touch ups average about 60 minutes.

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.

We recommend only using an esthetician that is certified as an eyelash extension specialist with a lot of experience.

What are the benefits of a lash lift keratin treatment?As you may have guessed, a regular lash lift does not use keratin. Instead, chemicals similar to those used during a perm are used for a regular Lash Lift. As we know, damage can be caused when we put chemicals in our hair and on our skin. A regular lash lift can result in dry, unhealthy lashes similiar to hair overprocessing. A lash lift with a keratin treatment causes no harm. In fact, keratin is a beneficial protein for our hair and skin leaving your lashes strong and healthy. This way you can continue getting lash lifts over and over.
-
What is Brow Lamination?Brow lamination involves straightening and lifting the hairs using a chemical solution, which allows the hairs to move into your desired shape, therefore covering any gaps or stray areas. Eyebrow lamination can be adjusted to personal preference, we can create a full and fluffy brow or a sleek and straight brushed up look, depending on what the client wants.
-
How is a brow lamination done?The process is simple and pretty straight forward and actually resembles that employed in salons for a perm. Initially, the brow specialist will treat your eyebrows with a lifting cream that helps separate the individual hairs and make them more malleable and styleable. Later, the brow specialist will begin to put the eyebrows into place by brushing them upward and perhaps trimming a few hairs. They will then be “set” in place using what is called a neutralizer. The last stage of the brow lamination process involves a nourishing, moisture-replenishing keratin treatment that keeps your eyebrows from becoming brittle and helps maintain the overall shape of the manicured eyebrow.
-
How to prepare for a brow lamination?If you take any kind of acne medication for your skin such as retinol and over-the-counter medicines then you should refrain from doing that for at least 48 hours before your brow lamination appointment. You should also arrive at your appointment without any makeup or other product on your skin. The reason for this is that you don’t want the process to dry out your eyebrows which can occur if your skin was treated with these products.
-
How long does brow lamination last?If you follow proper care guidelines and avoid activities or substances that can damage the integrity of the treatment, you’re looking at anywhere from 6-8 weeks per treatment.
-
What do laminated brows look like?Laminated eyebrows look straighter, thicker, and fluffier all at the same time, and are customizable depending on your natural brow shape and the look you want to achieve. This makes it an excellent option for anyone struggling with with uneven brows. It is a great option for people who do not want to do microblading or permanent makeup/tattoo.
