What are eyelash extensions?

Eyelash extensions lengthen and thicken eyelashes with single strands of synthetic or pure mink eyelashes that are curved to imitate the natural eyelash. They are applied to natural eyelashes, one lash at a time with a waterproof bond, creating a natural, stunning appearance.

What is the application process?For a full set of lashes the whole process takes approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours. During that time you will be comfortably reclined, with your eyes closed, while the eyelashes are individually applied to your natural eyelashes.

How long do the eyelash extensions last?Eyelash extensions can last up to 6-8 weeks with proper care, and depending on your own natural growth cycle for your natural lashes. Touch-ups (or fills) are generally needed every 3-4 weeks to maintain full looking lashes.

After Care InstructionsIn order to maintain your new lashes, please make sure to do the following:
• Avoid washing your eyes or taking shower and crying, sweating, and steaming for 24 hours after lash application.
• No swimming or going to a spa for 48 hours after lash application to allow adequate time for bonding.
• Be gentle with lashes.
• Avoid rubbing and pulling the eyelash extensions.
• Avoid oil-based and waterproof mascara. Regular mascara is not recommended, as it will dissolve the extension’s bond with the natural lashes.
• Only specially formulated mascaras can be worn. Gently remove mascara with water-based eye makeup remover and apply mascara on the tips only.
• Avoid any creams, eye makeup removers, lotions, sunscreens or cleansers containing oils on or near eyelashes. Oils can loosen the bond of the extensions. Care must be taken to apply eye cream sparingly with avoidance of the lash line area.
• Do NOT use an eyelash curler on your extensions.

My Favorite Products

Moroccan Oil is a great product for adding shine and reducing frizz.  I like to use it on damp hair before styling, but it is also good to use on the ends after you've styled your hair.  A little goes a long way.


Redken Rootful is my favorite volumizing product.  It is a light spray that you apply to your roots before styling.


Dry Volumizing Shampoo by Big Sexy Hair is my favorite dry shampoo, especially for dark hair.  There are a lot of dry shampoos to choose from, and if you have light colored hair you are probably okay to use most of them.  Having dark hair I feel that this one is the least likely to make my hair an ugly shade of gray, although it can do that it can easily be brushed and distributed throughout the hair with a good end result. 



The Brazilian Blowout is an excellent way to smooth out frizzy hair. It ultimately makes hair easier to style daily in a lot less time, with a fly-away free end result, leaving hair much smoother.  The Brazilian Blowout should last about 12 weeks with proper care.  Sulfate-free shampoo & conditioner are highly recommended.
