Eyelash Extensions vs. Eyelash Lift and Tint
"My lashes are too long, beautiful, thick and black" said no lady ever!Who has time to apply falsies or perfectly curl their lashes every single day?It is no surprise that services like eyelash extensions and eyelash lift and tint have become popular. Feeling a little apprehensive about trying either service? I am going to share some frequently asked questions.
Should I Get Eyelash Extensions or Eyelash Lift and Tint?
At Brow to Toe Waxing and Skin Care Studio, we apply one (classic) or more (volume) lash extension fibers, to each natural lash, to give you thicker, longer, darker, and curlier lashes. While most clients are ideal candidates for classic extensions, volume extensions are best for clients with sparse lashes or those who want added drama.
During the eyelash lift and tint service, your lashes are placed on a silicone rod followed by the application of a lifting lotion and tinting solution. Following the service, your natural lashes will remained curled 24/7 for the next 6-8 weeks. Because we are only enhancing your natural lashes, this service is not recommended for clients with very sparse, thin, or short natural lashes.
How Much Time Does It Take to Get Eyelash Extensions and the Eyelash Lift and Tint Service?
Each service begins with a detailed consultation followed by thorough post care instructions. It takes approximately one hour for the initial lash lift appointment and 2-2.5hrs for the lash extension appointment.
Your natural lash cycle and care of your lashes determine how often you will need to return for a follow-up. On average, you can expect to return every 6-8 weeks for the lash lift service and every 2 to 4 weeks for a lash extension in fill. The follow-up appointments are about 45 min for the lash lift and 45-90 min for the eyelash extension in fills depending on the frequency of your visits.
How Do I Care For My Lashes After Receiving Eyelash Extensions and the Eyelash Lift and Tint Service?
Post care is vital to maintaining your beautiful lashes; so, it is important that you follow the post care instructions provided by your esthetician. For the first 24 hours following the lash lift, you can not get anything on your lashes to include water or steam. Following that period, it is recommended that you use a lash conditioning product to maintain your lashes. Mascara may be worn, but is typically not needed.
Brow to Toe uses NovaLASH waterproof adhesive which means you can get your extensions wet immediately after leaving your appointment. We only recommend using the NovaLASH approved cleanser, avoiding mascara, brushing lashes daily, and sleeping in a position that prevents your lashes from rubbing against anything.
