HOW TO PREPARE FOR A LASH LIFT?
Please arrive with clean, make-up free lashes. Do not wear contacts during your treatment. Avoid caffeine that day or at least three hours prior to your appointment to ensure you have a relaxing experience. It also makes it easier to provide the treatment without excessive eye fluttering. Avoid curling your natural lashes for at least 24 hours prior to treatment. Stop using waterproof mascara 48 hours before your procedure since it leaves behind unwanted residue.
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING A LASH LIFT APPOINTMENT?
Before your appointment begins, we will discuss the different types of curls for your lash lift. A variety of curl rods are available for different types of curls, and we will select the right curl based on your desires for a more natural or dramatic curl.
During your appointment, your eyes will need to be kept closed with two eye pads in place. The silicone rods are placed on each eye and then your lashes are carefully combed onto the rod using water based glue. A lifting solution is applied onto your lashes near the base of lashes and away from the eye for 6 - 15 min depending on the thickness of your lashes. A setting solution is applied for 4 – 13 minutes. Each solution is removed in an upward motion away from eye to ensure no product gets in the eye. If a tint is necessary, it will be applied at the very end for up to 5 minutes. Clean up, remove the pads and rod and your beautiful lashes are ready to go!
