Aftercare

Lash artists provide aftercare advice for a reason. By cleaning your lash extensions daily you’ll see an improvement in long-term retention, meaning your lashes will look fuller for longer. Not caring for your lashes means you may see premature lash loss and find yourself losing lashes quickly. It’s also a common myth that lash extensions can’t get wet as this will ruin the adhesive bond, however, this is false! You can still shower as you normally do, and a little water never hurt a lash! Good lash aftercare will also help prevent infections. Your natural lashes are there to prevent bacteria from getting into your eyes, and lash extensions do the same job. But if you’re not cleaning your extensions the bacteria will start to build up and could cause an infection. Poor aftercare can also result in a build-up of dead skin and makeup on the lash line. So when you go in for your infill, it will be a struggle to apply extensions to unclean lashes and the bond will be affected. Resulting in your lashes not lasting. When you’ve paid for a full set of lashes, you want them to last. So the importance of aftercare really is vital to keeping your lashes full and long-lasting, and without causing damage to your natural lash. We hope this has helped you to understand lash care and why it’s important. Remember clean lashes are happy lashes!
