Frequently Asked Questions
What are Eyelash Extensions?
Semi Permanent Eyelash Extensions are a great way to enhance ones natural beauty and bring youthfulness to the eye area. The lashes are applied individually and directly to one natural lash at a time using a special bonding adhesive made exclusively for eyelash extensions. This allows the lashes to look and feel natural and beautiful, without any discomfort or heaviness. They are flexible, weightless, and permanently curled. Imagine...no mascara...no lash curlers...ever again! They come in a variety of lengths, thicknesses, colors, and curls.
Will the Eyelash Extensions damage my natural lashes?
No...At LUXE BEAUTY, eyelash extensions are applied with a medical grade adhesive that allows the extensions to stay flexible and bouncy just like natural lashes. Not every lash studio uses this type of high quality adhesive! When applied with the proper technique, eyelash extensions will not damage or cause your natural lashes to fall out. In some situations, extensions can even improve the health of your natural lashes! Ask us how!
How long do they last?
Your beautiful lash extensions can last as long as you want! Regular maintenance every 2-3 weeks is required to maintain their lush look and you can keep them on as long as you like! Many of our clients have been with us for years!
Can I get the lashes for a one-time occasion?
Yes, absolutely recommended for events such as reunions, weddings, honeymoons, vacations, proms, formals, photo shoots, etc. No need to remove the extensions after your event. They will gradually wear away over time.
Are Eyelash Extensions suitable for everyone?
Anyone of any age (women AND men) can have eyelash extensions as long as there is a healthy natural lash on which to adhere the extension.
Why wouldn't my eyelashes be eligible for extensions?
Some lashes could be too weak, or too kinky/curly. If you are unsure, call to book a free consultation anytime and we may discuss our Lash Rehab program to regain the health of your lashes before beginning lash extensions. If you have a habit of rubbing your eyes or picking at your lashes, eyelash extensions may not be for you. You must be able to lay quietly, with your eyes closed for the entire service.
What can I expect during my appointment?
While you relax on an ergonomic spa bed listening to soothing music, we will attach one extension at a time. In fact, since your eyes are closed, most clients fall asleep! A full set takes approximately 2 hours to apply and you will open your eyes looking 10 years younger!
Can I apply mascara to the lash extensions?
One advantage of having lash extensions is never having to wear mascara! The majority of our clients never wear mascara!
Can I swim, shower, exercise or visit a spa while wearing lashes?
Yes. The special adhesive allows you to shower, swim, exercise, sleep and spa worry-free while wearing extensions. You can enjoy your lash extensions with little need to adjust your lifestyle. Recent advancements in adhesives and techniques allow you to get your lash extensions wet immediately following your service!. No need to wait 48 hours anymore!
How do I take them off?
You can either let them grow out, or have them removed by a trained professional. Please do not attempt to remove them yourself. We have special lash remover which will remove them without any damage to your natural lashes. LUXE BEAUTY even specializes in "Lash Rehab" by removing damaging sets of extensions which were poorly applied by other lash artists and then, in many cases, we can reapply a new, beautiful set during the same appointment.
How do I prepare for my appointment?
Use a mild, oil free cleanser to thoroughly remove your eye makeup and to cleanse the eye area before you arrive for your appointment. Do not use any oily products prior to having eyelash extensions applied and do not use waterproof mascara. Contact lenses should be removed before your service and can be put back in afterwards.
How do I maintain my new Eyelash Extensions?
Your natural lashes have a growth and shedding cycle that causes them to shed and re-grow regularly Your lash extensions will shed along with your natural lashes and therefore a “touch up” appointment is required every 2-3 weeks to maintain your beautiful look and takes about an hour. In addition to scheduling regular touch up appointments every 2-3 weeks...do not use oily products, lash curlers, waterproof mascara, or cotton swabs/pads with fibers. We will suggest appropriate cleansers and makeup removers to use.
