Question 1

Is a lash lift better than eyelash extensions?

Accepted Answer

A lash lift is a great option if you want a low-maintenance, natural-looking enhancement using your own lashes. Unlike eyelash extensions, a lash lift does not add synthetic lashes. Instead, it lifts and curls your natural lashes from the root, making them look longer, more open, and more defined.Eyelash extensions can create a more dramatic look, but they require fills and more upkeep. A lash lift is perfect for clients who want beautiful lashes without the extra maintenance.

Question 2

Can I wear mascara after a lash lift?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can wear mascara after a lash lift, but you should wait at least 24 hours after your appointment before applying it. This gives your lashes time to fully set.Many clients find they do not need mascara after a lash lift and tint because the lashes already look darker, lifted, and more noticeable. If you do wear mascara, avoid waterproof formulas because they can be drying and harder to remove.

Question 3

Can I get a lash lift while pregnant?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, yes, you can get a lash lift while pregnant, but it is always best to check with your doctor first. Pregnancy can sometimes make your skin, eyes, and body more sensitive than usual, and hormonal changes may affect how your lashes respond to the treatment.If you are pregnant, please let us know before your appointment so we can make sure you are comfortable and take any necessary precautions.

Question 4

Can I wear contact lenses during my appointment?

Accepted Answer

No, contact lenses should be removed before your lash lift appointment. Your eyes will be closed during the service, and products are applied near the lash line, so removing contacts helps prevent irritation and keeps your eyes comfortable.Please bring your contact lens case and solution with you, or wear glasses to your appointment.

Question 5

Will a lash lift damage my natural lashes?

Accepted Answer

When done properly by a trained professional, a lash lift should not damage your natural lashes. The health of your lashes is always the priority, and the treatment should be customized based on your natural lash length, texture, and condition.Damage usually happens when lashes are overprocessed, lifted too often, or when aftercare is not followed. That is why choosing an experienced lash artist matters.

Question 6

How long does a lash lift appointment take?

Accepted Answer

A lash lift appointment typically takes about 45 to 60 minutes. If you are adding a lash tint, your appointment may take a little longer.During your service, your lashes are carefully lifted, set, and optionally tinted to create a more defined, eye-opening result.

Question 7

Can I combine a lash lift with a lash tint?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a lash lift and tint are commonly combined for the best results. The lash lift curls and lifts your natural lashes, while the tint darkens them, making them appear fuller and more noticeable.This combo is perfect if your lashes are light, blonde, or naturally faded at the tips. It gives that “I woke up like this” look without needing mascara every day.

Question 8

Can short lashes be lifted?

Accepted Answer

Yes, short lashes can often be lifted, as long as there is enough natural lash length to safely wrap around the lifting shield. A lash lift can help short lashes look more visible by lifting them upward instead of letting them point straight out or downward.Results may be more subtle on very short lashes

Question 9

Can I get another lash lift immediately?

Accepted Answer

No, you should not get another lash lift immediately. Your natural lashes need time to grow and recover between appointments.Most clients should wait about 6 to 8 weeks before getting another lash lift. Getting lash lifts too close together can lead to dryness, overprocessing, or weakened lashes — and we are not trying to bully your lashes into submission.

Question 10

How should I prepare for my appointment?

Accepted Answer

Please arrive to your lash lift appointment with clean lashes and no eye makeup. Avoid mascara, eyeliner, lash serum, eye cream, and oily products around the eyes the day of your appointment.If you wear contact lenses, remove them before your service or bring a case and solution with you. Clean lashes help the lift process properly and give you the best possible results.

Question 11

Can I swim after a lash lift?

Accepted Answer

You should avoid swimming, steam, saunas, heavy sweating, and getting your lashes wet for the first 24 hours after your lash lift. This allows the lift to fully set and helps your results last longer.After the first 24 hours, you can swim and enjoy your regular routine.

Question 12

What if my lashes are naturally straight?

Accepted Answer

A lash lift is a great option for naturally straight lashes. The treatment is designed to lift and curl the lashes from the base, helping them look longer, more open, and more defined.If your lashes grow downward or stick straight out, a lash lift can make your eyes appear brighter and more awake without the daily struggle of a lash curler.

Question 13

Can I curl my lashes?

Accepted Answer

No.Your lashes have already been curled during the treatment.Using a mechanical lash curler can place unnecessary stress on the lashes and may affect the results.

Question 14

Can I wash my face?

Accepted Answer

Yes.Just avoid getting your lashes wet during the initial aftercare period and be gentle around the eye area.

Question 15

Can I sleep on my side?

Accepted Answer

Yes.Just avoid sleeping directly on your face during the first day or two to help preserve the lift. If you sleep on your lashes during the first 2 days, you may disrupt the curl.

Question 16

Why are my lashes not as dark anymore?

Accepted Answer

This is completely normal.The tint gradually fades over time.

Question 17

Can I use lash growth serum?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we actually highly recommend it, but do not use oil-based serums. Some oil-based or conditioning products can affect the tint or longevity, so ask your lash artist which products are compatible with your treatment. If you need a serum, we do have lash lift/tint and extension safe serum available at the studio.
