AFTER CARE & RETENTION

EYELASH EXTENSIONS

YOU JUST BOUGHT YOURSELF SOME PRETTY LASHES… NOW WHAT?!

ENJOY THEM & DON’T TOUCH.

DAY 1:

Allow the adhesive to do it's job & fully cure to 100% over the next 24 hrs. Please, don't fuss about with excessive combing or touching. Get your cleaning kit ready & give ‘em a wash before bed. You’ve got your next fill scheduled @ the two week mark & you have my # if you’re having some type of issue. Allow yourself to get used to wearing extensions & truly enjoy them! Everything you think you knew about the lash life is about to change!

DAY 2 + ON + ON

EVERY DAY, CLEANSE YOUR LASHES IN THE MORNING (& AGAIN @ NIGHT DEPENDENT ON YOUR DAY, GREASINESS & MAKEUP USAGE). YOU’LL USE AN EXTENSION SAFE CLEANSER & SOFT BRISTLED BRUSH TO GENTLY EXFOLIATE YOUR LASH LINE. RINSE, BLOT DRY & GENTLY COMB THROUGH WITH A CLEAN MASCARA SPOOLIE. LOYAL LASH CLIENTS BOOK THEIR FILLS WEEKS IN ADVANCE TO MAKE SURE THEIR SELF CARE LASH NAPS ARE NATURALLY FIT INTO THEIR BUSY LIVES! WEDDINGS, BIRTHDAYS, VACATIONS. LASHES ARE AN ACCESSORY THAT LIVES WITH YOU. THEY’RE EASY TO FALL IN LOVE WITH & CAN DEFINITELY FIT INTO MOST LIFESTYLES WITH THE PROPER EDUCATION & COMMUNICATION.

PRO TIPS FOR HAPPY CLIENTS

IF IT LOOKS LIKE YOU NEED A FILL, YOU’VE WAITED TOO LONG. Book a Removal & Full Set.

KNOW THAT YOUR LASHES ARE EVER CHANGING. We lose 1-5 natural eyelashes every single day. Personal, hygienic cycles can affect how the adhesive adheres to your natural lash. If one or two lashes pop off in the first 24 hrs. Don’t fret! If it’s more than that.. get in touch.

LONGER APPOINTMENTS = MORE TIME FOR LASHING. In addition to your habits & overall retention, how dense your lashes are naturally also play into how long you’ll need for each appt. Do yourself a favor- when in doubt, choose the longer appt. You wouldn’t be happy with half a bang trim, would you? Half a haircut? A half cooked pizza?

NO STRIP LASHES. If you need more fluff, ask for it + prepare to upgrade to Mega. Over the counter, temporary, falsie glue can leave a harsh, sticky residue on your lashes. Not only that, natural lashes can get ripped out prematurely in their removal, causing irrepairable damage.

NO PICKING OR PULLING. Our fingers are full of disgusting germs. EW. DON’T.

WAIT 24 HRS FOR YOUR SPRAY TAN. TBH, Kelli isn’t too familiar with spray tanning procedures or chemicals, but I’ve read this over & over.

RINSE TEARS & SWEAT ASAP. Rinse immediately, but try to use the brush + cleanser as quickly as possible. Even marathoners + hot yoga lovers can enjoy their lashes when they’re kept clean on the daily!

• AVOID HEAT. Heat of all kinds. Heat from saunas, bbqs, ovens, boiling pots, super hot showers & that heat tunnel created between your face + your hand when you light up that cig or doobie. The extension (a synthetic material) will melt, fuse together, lose it’s curl +/or singe causing damage to your natural lashes.

THESE TIPS ARE APPLICABLE FOR LIFT CLIENTS AS WELL

NO FACE SLEEPING. Friction from your pillowcase can interfere with your retention. Try a silk pillowcase, a 3D eye mask, or a neck pillow.

PAY ATTENTION. To your habits (srsly- stop touching your face). Your products. Your retention (does one eye always keep better than the other? Could be sleep or snuggle habits). Your likes + dislikes. Your medications. When you’re more aware of what’s happening in your private environment, pair it with a clear idea of ‘what you want’ & are able to accurately communicate those things, you ultimately will be a happier lash client.

BE AWARE OF THE PRODUCTS YOU’RE USING. Mascara is a big fat NO. Lots of eye products will adhere to the your lashes, the extensions, or interfere with the bond- ruining your beautiful set. Resist waxy, oily and waterproof makeup. As well as some oil cleansers, primera & makeup setters.

MY #1 TIP FOR GREAT RETENTION — KEEP THEM CLEAN. Build up of skin, dirt, oils, sweat, sebum, etc. will suffocate your lashes + they will DIE. They will fall out prematurely & if this continues (& they’re able to grow back), they will be weak & frail. Should your lashes have an extreme build up, a removal will be suggested. Depending on your natural lashes condition after the removal, either a new set or a break from the service will be suggested. Eye disease is no joke & I will not knowingly allow my clients to let bacteria breed upon their eyelids.

EVEN THOUGH LASH LIFT CLIENTS CAN WEAR MASCARA, AVOID WATERPROOF IF YOU CAN. Waterproof mascara is extremely dehydrating on your lashes & is difficult to remove. Please be as gentle as possible when removing your makeup! Try using a clean, soft face cloth with warm water & gently remove. Avoid makeup wipes!

BE GENTLE WITH YOUR LASHES.

 

LASH LIFT & TINT

LOOK HOW GOOD YOU LOOK!

DAY ONE: Now. Don’t touch! Avoid heavy makeup, saunas, spas, hot showers & the like for the first 24-48 hrs. Apply your nourishing oil @ bed & give them a wash in the morning. Please try to back sleep, at least tonight. You don’t want to shift the arch of your lift!

LASH LIFT MAINTENANCE

WASH YOUR LASHES EVERY DAY, ESPECIALLY IF YOU’VE WORN MAKEUP OR BEEN OUT IN THE ELEMENTS. YOU’LL USE A GENTLE CLEANSER & SOFT BRISTLED BRUSH TO LIGHTLY EXFOLIATE YOUR LASH LINE. THEN, RINSE, BLOT DRY & COMB. YOUR LASH LIFT (& TINT) SHOULD LAST 5-8 WEEKS. PRE-BOOK YOUR NEXT LIFT NOW, TO ENSURE YOU GET THE TIME YOU’D LIKE.

• AVOID EYELASH CURLERS - They’ll break your lashes in half. THEY WILL BREAK YOUR LASHES IN HALF.

USE NOURISHING OIL DAILY - I usually have extras on site, but do include a mini oil on lift day.

AVOID WATERPROOF MASCARA - Often harder to remove & in need of excessive scrubbing, waterproof mascara’s removal can actaully rip out your natural lashes, causing unnecessary damage to your natural lashes.

USE OF SERUMS IS STILL FINE, HOWEVER - Please discontinue use 48 hrs before your next lash lift appointment.

NO FACE SLEEPING - You may shift the direction of your lift or unintentionally rip out lashes.
