Aftercare FAQ
- How long do lash extensions last?
- Lash extensions last through your natural lash growth cycle, which is roughly six to eight weeks per lash. Because natural lashes shed a few every day, most clients book a fill every two to three weeks to keep their set looking full.
- Can I get my lash extensions wet?
- Keep them dry for the first 24 hours while the adhesive fully cures. After that, water is fine, and gently cleansing your lashes every few days actually helps them last longer.
- What should I avoid with lash extensions?
- Avoid oil-based cleansers and makeup removers, waterproof mascara, lash curlers, and rubbing or pulling at your lashes. Oil breaks down lash adhesive, and friction causes early shedding.
- How do I clean my lash extensions?
- Wet your lashes, apply a lash-safe foaming cleanser with a soft brush, rinse with clean water, pat dry, then brush through with a clean spoolie.
