No. Both lash extensions and lash lifts are not damaging. It can only be damaging if the lashes are yanked or the extensions are incorrectly applied. If you look closely, you'll see that the extensions are applied to the lashes one at a time. And as the natural lashes grow, the extensions will grow with it too.

How Long is An Appointment?

Full set lash extension appointments are 1 hour and 30 minutes. Refill appointments are 1 hour. You can see all our services, pricing, and duration here.

What's The Aftercare for Extensions?

For the first 24 hours, avoid getting your lashes wet. After the initial 24 hours, avoid using oily products such as face oils and oil-based spf. Other than that, just keep them clean with daily cleaning and brushing!

Yes. After the first 24 hours, lashes are great for the beach, pool, showers, hot tubs, and water sports. After they're wet, just pat the extensions dry and brush them out to avoid them clumping together from the water.

How Often Do I Need Refills?

Refills can be completed as often as you like! Typically, refills are every 2 or 3 weeks. Refills are necessary because the extensions grow WITH your natural lashes.

How Long Do They Last?

How long lash extensions last completely depends on your natural shedding cycle and lifestyle. The average person loses up to 8 natural lashes per day. But, improper aftercare may cause extensions to fall out faster. Typically, most of our clients' extensions last up to 4 weeks.

No, lash extensions should feel weightless. There is a variety of thicknesses that our lash specialists can choose from to make extensions feel as comfortable as possible. The thicker your natural lash is, the thicker of an extension your lashes can hold. Vice versa- the thinner your natural lash is, the thinner the extension will be.

Are There Different Styles?

Yes there is a variety of styles to choose from. Your lash specialist will consult with you on what would look best for your natural facial features - but ultimately it's whatever you want! Our most popular styles are natural classic, or fluffy volume cat eye.

What's the Difference Between Lash Lifts and Extensions?

Lash lifts (commonly paired with tints) curl your natural lashes and last up to 6 weeks. Lash extensions are actual hairs attached to each individual natural lash and last up to 4 weeks. Clients who have naturally long lashes that want a natural look typically prefer lash lifts. Otherwise, lash extensions offer more customization and can alter the length, thickness, and darkness of your lashes - dramatically or naturally changing your overall appearance.

How to Remove Lash Extensions?

In the instance you don't want to let them naturally fall out, you can come in for a removal. During a removal, a gel or cream remover will be used to dissolve the adhesive which will painlessly allow the extensions to come off in less than 15 minutes. If you are unable to come in for a removal, clients are suggested to take a hot shower then apply a generous amount of coconut oil along the lash line for 20-30 minutes. The steam will loosen up the adhesive and oil will break it down. At home removals may take a few tries and risk accidentally pulling out natural lashes - so we always suggest clients to come in. Removals typically occur when there is a reaction or sensitivity towards the extensions.

Brow tinting is a temporary solution to darkening eyebrow hairs. Brow tints are waterproof and look the most defined for up to a week, although the eyebrow hairs will stay dark for up to 6 weeks.

Is There A More Permanent Option of Brow Tinting?

Yes, there are plenty of options for longer term perfect brows such as microblading, combo brows, brow shading, and more. To see more details on these services, go to "permanent makeup" tab on our service menu here.

Does Permanent Makeup Last Forever?

No. Although it is called permanent makeup, the colors fade over the course of years. The pigments and procedures used with permanent makeup is not nearly as permanent as a regular tattoo. How long permanent brow, eyeliner, or lips last depends on the aftercare of the client and their lifestyle. Clients are suggested to book a consultation to discuss expectations and get all answers questioned before scheduling the actual procedure appointment.

What Are Other Permanent Makeup Options?

We currently offer permanent eyebrows, eyeliner, and lip blushing.

Getting ombre brows can be an exciting experience, especially if you're looking to enhance your natural beauty. It's important to know what to expect during your appointment to ensure a smooth process and beautiful results. Let's walk through the essential steps you can anticipate during your ombre brow appointment.

Step 1: Initial Consultation

During your initial consultation, you'll discuss your brow goals, preferences, and any concerns you may have. This is the time to ask questions and ensure that you and your artist are on the same page.

It's also an opportunity to explore different styles and shapes that might work for you. Brows can dramatically alter your appearance, so be sure to express what you envision. If you have pictures or examples, bring those along!

By the end of this discussion, you should feel comfortable and excited about moving forward. Remember, your brow artist is there to guide you and help you find the perfect fit for your face.

Step 2: Skin Preparation

The artist will prepare your skin by cleaning the area and may apply a numbing cream to minimize discomfort during the procedure. This step is crucial for a pleasant experience.

Skin preparation ensures the color adheres well and that the procedure can be completed efficiently. You'll appreciate the extra care taken to make this step as comfortable as possible.

It's the little details—like ensuring your skin is perfectly prepped—that contribute to a successful ombre brow outcome. Don't hesitate to ask your artist about any specific products they use!

Step 3: Brow Mapping

Your brow artist will map out the shape of your new brows, ensuring they complement your facial features. This mapping process is important for achieving symmetry and the desired look.

Expect some pencil marks and adjustments here! The artist will take their time to get it right, which might involve some trial and error. Be patient; this is an essential step that guarantees your brows will look fabulous.

If you're unsure about the shape or how it looks, speak up! Your input is valuable, and a good artist will happily adjust the design until you feel confident.

Step 4: The Ombre Application

Once the mapping is complete, the artist will begin the ombre application. This technique involves using a specialized tool to create a gradient effect, resulting in soft, natural-looking brows.

The application process can take some time, so feel free to relax! You might find the humming of the machine soothing or light distractions like music in the background making the wait enjoyable.

As the artist works, you'll notice how the brows start taking shape. It’s a gradual process that reveals the stunning transformation before your eyes. Remember to breathe and enjoy this moment of change!

Step 5: Aftercare Instructions

After the procedure, your artist will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and maintenance of your new ombre brows. Following these guidelines is crucial for the best results.

Aftercare may include avoiding water, makeup, or excessive sun exposure for a few days. These practices help safeguard your new look while it's still fresh and delicate.

Don't forget to ask any follow-up questions! Understanding how to care for your brows post-appointment will help maintain that beautiful ombre effect over time.

Final Thoughts on Your Ombre Brow Journey

With the right preparation and understanding of what to expect, your ombre brow appointment can be a positive and transformative experience. Remember to communicate openly with your brow artist, and enjoy the process of achieving your perfect brows!
