You’ll want to avoid oil-based products, especially oil-based make-up removers, when you have lash extensions.

We do not recommend wearing mascara with lash extensions.

Typically you cannot feel the eyelash extensions once applied since they simply provide an enhancement to your natural eyelashes.

Come to your appointment without wearing any eye makeup (no mascara, eyeliner or shadow).  If you normally wear contacts, bring your case and glasses.  For your first appointment, please arrive 5 minutes early to complete the necessary paperwork.

Applying a full set of lash extensions takes from 1 hour 15 minutes to 2 hours 30 minutes. The time varies depending on the amount of coverage and the level of experience of your lash technician.

You will need to wait 24 hours before getting your lashes wet after any appointment when lash extensions were applied. Getting your lashes wet after your service will halt the curing process of the adhesive and may greatly effect the retention of your lashes.

Since each lash extension is attached to a single eyelash, they will fall out naturally over time following the growth cycle for each natural lash. Exact timing varies, but most women’s eyelashes shed every 2-3 months (2-4 lashes per day). At Wink we recommend a re-lash every two to three weeks.

Touch ups can also be done at any time as needed. A Touch up is used when someone is not quite ready for a re-lash. A touch up is typically for people who have recently gotten a full set and just need a touch up before a special event.

When applied properly, lash extensions are safe and won’t harm the health of your natural lashes.

You should not rub your eyes or tug or pull on the extensions because this can cause lash loss and even damage to your natural lashes.
