Eyelash Extension Aftercare Information

The eyelash extensions came in different size from 6 mm to 16 mm if you choose a size between 12 mm and 16 mm you need to understand that they will fall out quickly in comparison than short size also long lash extensions will ruin your natural lashes. Therefore you have those options available to you. The natural eyelash cycle is approximately four to twelve weeks.  Do not be alarmed if some of your lashes fall out quickly (they most likely were at the end of their cycle).  The majority of extensions will stay through a complete cycle if you follow these guidelines:

• Your natural eyelashes should not get wet for a minimum of 48 hours would be ideal to allow the adhesive properly to bond to a dry eyelash (soggy eyelashes do not make for a good adhesion).  A dry washcloth can be rolled up and placed over your brows when you shower to protect your extensions from becoming totally saturated.
  
  
• The first wash is 48 hours after that you did your eyelashes extensions.
• Clean your eyelashes every evening if you use makeup or every other day if you don't use makeup then mix Johnson's® Baby Shampoo (yellow color) 1/4 part with distilled water in a small spray bottle then spray your eyes 6-7 times each eye and use soft eye-shadow brush or any soft brush and brush your eyelashes from the base to the tip repeat three times every eye, after rinse thoroughly with distilled water only and air dried or use hair dryer (cold mode and low speed).
  This step is important because the body natural oil affect the bonds by a break down the glue and cause the lashes to come up. Don't worry if you lose one or two lashes remember that we lose between one or five natural lashes every single day.

• Do not use waterproof mascara.  Most brands of mascara contain chemical properties and oils that will break down the adhesive.  Removing waterproof mascara from your lashes can cause the extensions to fall off prematurely as well.  Use only water based mascara or highly recommended mascara for eyelashes extensions like Chic Duo by Misencil®. If you decide to use appropriate mascara for your eyelashes extensions also is important to use a good cleanser like Face & Eye Makeup Remover by Misencil®

• Take special care around the eye area when cleansing your face. Gently cleanse the eye area and do not scrub or rub your eyes.  Avoid any type of oil-based product around the eyes.  Again, the oils will break down the adhesive and cause the extensions to fall off.  
  
  
• Never use a clamp-style eyelash curler on your extensions.  This can permanently damage not only the extensions but your natural eyelashes as well.  Eyelash combs are great for grooming your lashes every morning.
  
  
• Adhesives are cured, however, by avoiding extreme variation of heat, humidity, and cold weather (hot showers, saunas, zero degree weather), your extensions can last longer.  Normal activities like swimming can resume after 48 hours.
  
  
• Be sure to schedule an appointment every 2 weeks for timely touch-ups.  This will keep your lashes looking full and natural, indefinitely. Normally we lose 1-5 lashes per day – so let's average this at 3 per day. So look at the following:

In 1 week you will lose 7-21 lashes

2 week you will lose 14-42 lashes

3 weeks you will lose 21-63 lashes

Understanding our bodies are constantly regenerating and growing; each extension is placed on an individual natural eyelash hair to allow for this process to continue. Remember Hair Growth Cycle:

• Do not attempt to remove the extensions yourself.  Have them removed by your professional Stylist.
  
  
• It may take a day or two to adapt to the weight & length of the extensions. If you notice any sensitivity or reaction to them please contact us immediately.
  
  
• Remember to keep hands away from lashes while they set.
  
  
• Sleeping on your face will be the demise of your lashes. When you have lash extensions it is advised you sleep on your back, or side (when using a lash pillow). Sleeping on your face, your lashes can get stuck to the cotton in your pillowcase, you will smash them and usually, you don't stay in one place while you sleep. You are likely rubbing your face, turning it side to side, and smothering your lashes into the pillow. This will create your lashes to be compromised and fall out, break, and just be ruined! If you are a pillow smother, lash at your own risk!  sleep like a princess!
