Question 1

Why do we love lash lifts?

Accepted Answer

If your lashes are stubborn, like to point downwards, or are naturally short, getting a lash lift will do wonders!
1. Amazing Results: A lash lift + tint are the perfect alternative to lash extensions and no more dealing with glue and fake-looking lashes.
2. Less Damage: Not only will a lash lift give your lashes a major boost, but it also won't damage or break your lashes.
3. Cost-Effective: Unlike expensive lash extensions, lash lifts are lower priced and last longer, so you wont need as many sessions.
4. Low-Maintenance: No rules apply with a lash lift except to avoid sweat, steam, mascara and oil based products for the first 24 hours. Yes, that means you can wear mascara!
5. What Makes Keratin Lash Lift Different?
The keratin treatment is not your ordinary lift. This process infuses real keratin into each lash, strengthening and volumizing them. Instead of leaving your lashes dehydrated and frizzy, they are healthy and lifted. You will be obsessed with the finished results! Over time you will notice your lashes longer, stronger and healthier!

Question 7

How often should I get a lash lift or tint?

Accepted Answer

A lash lift will begin to naturally drop after about week 5 and your lashes will be back to their natural length. You can repeat the treatment after 5 weeks

Question 8

Can I wear mascara on my lash extensions?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can, but it is advised that you leave your lashes untouched for at least 24 hours after your treatment. You may find that there is no need for mascara anyway because the add on tint will enhance the color of your natural lashes. If you wish to make your lashes even fuller, a non-waterproof mascara is advised because the removal of waterproof mascara can be harsh on the lashes and may weaken the lash lift.

Question 9

Can I use an eyelash curler?

No. An eyelash curler is not necessary, the treatment gives a much better result than a curler. More importantly, using one may weaken and damage your lashes.

Question 11

Preparing for your Lash Lift + Tint Appointment

Accepted Answer

When preparing to arrive at your appointment, do not consume any caffeinated beverages, but to my caffeine lovers, I advise to drink any caffeinated beverages an hour or 2 before your appointment. Caffeine can cause your eyes to flutter during your service. Please arrive 10 minutes prior, to update all necessary consultation forms and to prepare for your appointment to begin on time. Please make sure to arrive without contacts and free of makeup around the eye area (No concealer, mascara, eyeliner, eyeshadow etc.). You can put your contacts back on after the lash lift process is complete. Avoid curling your natural lashes for 24 hours prior to your appointment. Makeup removal will result in time being taken from lashing and a removal fee of $20 will be added to the service.

Question 12

Products to avoid after your Lash Lift + Tint Procedure?

Accepted Answer

- Please avoid heat, steam (including cooking over a steaming stovetop), saunas, water, oils, makeup remover wipes or pads on lashes for a minimum of 24 hours. 
- Avoid rubbing your eye.
- When removing eye makeup, gently use a non-oily makeup remover.
- Gently brush your lashes daily with a spooly
- Use a mineral mascara with natural fibers for the best finish
- AVOID using waterproof mascara.

Question 13

Aftercare Instructions

Accepted Answer

DO:
 
- Use a LASH SERUM: It's recommended to use a lash serum to help your lashes grow longer and stronger. This will help give you amazing looking lashes. (you may continue using your growth product 48 hours AFTER the treatment)
- MOISTURIZE your lashes. It's recommended to use an oil that is safe to use around the eye area and lashes to help moisturize your lashes. (you may continue using your growth product 48 hours AFTER the treatment)
DONT:
 
- DO NOT WET your lashes for 24 hours after your appointment.
- DO NOT SLEEP with your face laid on the pillow. You must sleep on your back for 24 hours. Your lashes are prone to kinks within 24 hours after the procedure. 
- DO NOT PULL your lashes. This can cause your natural lashes to fall out prematurely and cause both breakage and permanent damage to their hair follicle.
