Pre & Post Care Tips
for Lash Extensions
Prior to Your Appointment
Avoid drinking caffeine 5-6 hours before your appointment. Eyes tend to be too jittery for the service
Make sure your lashes are free of ANY make up for your lash appointment. Best to not wear any mascara or eye liner 24 hours before your appointment. Taking off your make up during your appointment will cut into your lash time.
If you have extremely fair eyelashes we recommend you have them tinted before your eyelash extension appointment
After Your Appointment
No water and mascara on the lashes for 24 hours after your appointment. It’s best to shower before coming in for your appointment since you want to avoid showering 24 hours after
No steam and no heavy exercise that would cause excessive sweating
Avoid swimming, steam rooms, saunas, or extreme heat for 48 hours after application
No lash serums, lash extensions, eye creams for 24 hours
Avoid wearing mascara since this will lessen the life of your extensions
Only use oil-free makeup removers
Keep the area around your eyes clean. Do not avoid normal cleaning, just be gentle
Use cotton swabs to remove make up by working gently around your eyelashes
Do not use an eyelash curler on the lash extensions or try to perm or tint them. This will break the bond on the extensions and might damage your natural lashes.
Avoid sleeping face down to prevent pressing against your eyelashes.
Keep an eyelash comb handy to straighten out any loose, stray lashes. Comb them carefully and very gently only when needed.
Avoid pulling on any loose extensions or you risk plucking out your natural eyelashes. Even though it may be tempting, do not try to remove the lash extensions yourself; allow the extensions to fall off naturally or schedule an appointment to have them professionally removed.
The golden rule is: look but don’t touch.
