All About Lash Extentions

Lash extensions are quickly becoming a beauty staple when it comes to a night out on the town. Lash Extensions add length, thickness and fullness to natural eyelashes. Longer lashes will make your eyes more open and will give them an enlarged look. Often without the hassle of mascara! 

The strips of eyelashes you see in the make-up department at your local drug store don’t have a thing on professional lash extensions which are single lash extensions applied one by one to individual eyelashes. This process involves carefully separating the natural lashes with fine point tweezers to reveal one healthy eyelash. The lash extension is then dipped into a medical grade adhesive and attached to the natural eyelash. The process is repeated until all eyelashes are covered. Touch-ups are recommended every 2-4 weeks.

Here is a quick reference list on how to get the most out of your lash extensions.
