Frequently Asked Questions

Six to Eight weeks. Lash extensions last through a full growth cycle of natural eyelashes, typically six to eight weeks. That said, because each person's lash growth is somewhat variable (just hair growth), I suggest light lash maintenance every three to four weeks to maintain a full look.

Lash extensions alone will not ruin your lashes. Damage to the natural lashes is the result of improper application, or the stylist not selecting the correct type of lash for an existing natural lash. ... Too-heavy extensions weigh the lash down. Also, rubbing your eyes will result in immediate breakage.

How much do eyelash extensions cost? Lash extensions range in cost, depending on the type of material used. But generally, an initial full-set lash application will cost somewhere between $150-$200. Monthly maintenance and refills, however, will run anywhere from $55-$65 per session.

A tiny drop of black adhesive is placed on a stone. Tweezers are used to isolate an individual eyelash. The artificial eyelash extension is dipped in the medical grade adhesive then positioned on top of the natural eyelashes. This process is repeated for up to 2 hours until the desired fullness of lashes is received.

How to Shower with Eyelash Extensions. Some lash stylists tell you to not shower or wet your lash extensions for 24 to 48 hours once they are applied. This wait time allows the adhesive used to completely bond with your natural lashes.

There are some serious drawbacks to lash extensions that you should know about before assessing whether or not they're worth it for you. ... You need to replace your extensions every two to three weeks, as the extensions will shed with your natural lash cycle, and those replacements cost another $100, minimum.

At Lash & Beauty Lab, a full set of lash extensions ranges from $150 to $250; upgrading from faux mink eyelash extensions to Siberian mink would add a reasonable $40 to the bill, or $20 for a touch-up.
