What are NaturaLash Extensions?

NaturaLash eyelash extensions are single synthetic lashes that are applied one by one to each of your existing lashes for a totally natural look.  Our Eyelash Extensions add length, thickness and fullness to your own lashes that can’t be achieved with traditional makeup.  With proper application the lashes look and feel very natural, unlike the feeling with lash strips or other lashes.

What is the application process like?

You will be comfortably reclined with your eyes closed while the extensions are applied individually to your natural eyelashes. The procedure is so relaxing and comfortable that many clients fall asleep.

How long does the procedure take?

A full set of NaturaLash Eyelash Extensions may take up to 2 hours or more. Touch-ups usually require less time depending on the condition of your previous application and lapse since your last visit.

How long do they last?

NaturaLash Eyelash Extensions remain for the full life cycle of your existing lashes, generally lasting up to two months or more.  The life cycle of natural lashes vary per individual, and factors such as temperature and moisture can affect the duration; we recommend touch-up appointments every 2-4 weeks to keep up with the natural growth and shedding of your lashes.

How often should I get refills?

I recommend getting a touch up every two to four weeks. A refill is needed to replenish the lashes that have completed their life cycle and for those that have fallen off. Some people like the full look all the time and come in every 2 weeks, some prefer coming in every 3 or 4 weeks. You are eligible for a retouch if at least 50% of your extensions are still in place.

How do I care for my extensions?

You can wear NaturaLash Extensions without hesitation.  You can shower, swim or spa while wearing them.  However, it is important to keep them dry for 48 hours immediately following the application.  Avoid rubbing your eyes or using products around your eyes that are not specifically formulated for NaturaLash Eyelash Extensions, particularly creams containing oils that will cause them to fall off prematurely. Use a water based makeup remover.  Sleeping on your stomach or sleeping with something covering your face will cause the lashes to fall off sooner.  Side sleepers will notice that the eye that is on the side they sleep on will loose lashes a bit more than the side that faces up.

How soon should I have them done for a special occasion?

I recommend the lash application be done 2 days to 5 days before your special event or vacation. This insures accurate curing time for the bonding agent (which can take up to 48 hours) and the freshest possible look for the lashes.

Do I still need to wear mascara?

Most people find that mascara is not necessary with NaturaLash Extensions.  Our Lash Extensions already provide the ultimate length, thickness and fullness you desire along with a nice curve.  However, for those who wish to further enhance their extensions, NaturaLash has designed mascara that can be used.  Do not use any petroleum based products on the lashes or the lash line, otherwise the bonding agent may break down and the lashes may fall off.  For eyeliner, it is best if you use powder/brush product, many pencils may be petroleum based.

How much do they cost?

Many technicians charge a flat fee while others may charge according to the number of lashes applied. When calling around, ask how long the technician takes to apply a full set, ask if the lashes are applied one by one.

Please do the following prior to your lash appointment

Clean your lashes with non-oil based, mild cleanser.  Do not use an oil makeup remover to clean your lashes.  Come with clean lashes, free of any makeup.  If you are coming from work, I will give you a makeup remover to cleanse the lashes.

Eyelash Extension Removal

Do Not attempt to remove the lashes yourself.  If you do you will end up pulling out your lashes.  I have a special adhesive remover which allows easy and safe removal, so your lashes are not damaged.

Eyelash extensions are not for everyone

If you are allergic to acrylic, we are unable to use the specially formulated medical adhesive.
