1.What are eyelash extensions?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
Lash extensions are tiny black fibers that resemble eyelashes and that are attached to natural eyelashes using glue. The fibers either come as individual pieces or attached to a strip. Strip lashes can be applied by anyone. Professionals typically apply individual lashes. Our guide focuses on the latter because they’re more complicated, not to mention expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
Licensed technicians carefully apply fake lashes by attaching the tiny extensions one-by-one to create a look that’s both dramatic yet natural. After the service, lash extensions will last through a full growth cycle of your natural eyelashes. Though each person\u2019s lash growth may vary, this process is generally between six to eight weeks. However, most technicians recommend touch-ups every three to four weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3.What are they made out of?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
The most common extension materials are mink, synthetic hair, and synthetic silk. Mink extensions tend to be the lightest and softest, which is why some people believe they’re the best fake eyelashes. It’s also why they’re the most expensive. Synthetic lashes are typically the thickest and heaviest of the bunch, resulting in a highly dramatic look. Synthetic silk extensions are the most common type of extensions used nowadays because they tend to be fairly light, very dark, and able to hold a curl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4.How much do eyelash extensions cost?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
Lash extensions range in cost, depending on the type of material used. But generally, an initial full-set lash application<\/a> will cost somewhere between $150-$200. Monthly maintenance and refills, however, will run anywhere from $55-$65 per session. Mink lashes\u2014reportedly the only type Beyonc\u00e9 wears\u2014typically cost $300 for a full set. Luckily, you can snag a full mink set on Groupon for as little as $72 and silk and synthetic for even less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Because the application process is so meticulous, getting a full set can take 2.5\u20133 hours. Most clients use the time to nap. Half sets and touchups take considerably less time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Six to eight weeks. Lash extensions last through a full growth cycle of natural eyelashes, typically six to eight weeks. That said, because each person’s lash growth is somewhat variable (just hair growth), I suggest light lash maintenance every three to four weeks to maintain a full look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The biggest myth is that lash extensions ruin your own lashes. They do not. If applied correctly and properly, they are safe and do not ruin the health of your natural lashes. Be sure not to rub your eyes or tug or pull on the extensions because this can cause lash loss and even damage to your natural lashes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Liquid, cream, and pencil liners are risky with eyelash extensions. Oil-based liquid eyeliners are not recommended, because oil can weigh down the lashes and result in premature loss of the extensions. … Powder eyeliner works best with eyelash extensions. Make sure you opt for an oil-free formulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mascara that is specifically formulated for lash extensions can be applied to the tips of the extensions. Oil-free eye makeup remover should be used to remove any makeup, like the Garnier Skinactive Micellar Cleansing Water. Eye shadow and eyeliner can also be applied as long as it is oil-free and removed daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can, but not until you\u2019ve waited at least 24 hours after your appointment. \u201cEyelash adhesives vary in the time they take to cure, from either 12 to 24 hours depending on what glue your stylist uses,\u201d says Marin. It\u2019s super important that you\u2019re gentle with your lashes and makes sure that no water touches them during this time, says Richardson. You can shower after getting lashes as long as you don\u2019t get the lashes wet and don\u2019t stay in the steam for too long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Only use cleaners specifically formulated to be safe for eyelash extensions, says Richardson. Other products may contain ingredients that can weaken the bond of your lash extensions and cause them to shed prematurely. And if you\u2019re wearing eye makeup, use oil-free pads and gently swipe downward, rather than back and forth, to get your lids and lashes clean. And whatever you do, avoid rubbing or tugging at your eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lashes can get tangled when you\u2019re sleeping or showering, so it\u2019s required that you gently brush your lashes with a clean spoolie brush when you wake up, after you shower, and at the end of the day. And to prevent unnecessary tangling, try to sleep on your back or side (not your stomach) and use a silk pillowcase, which tends to be gentler on extensions, says Richardson.
