Lashe Spot adhesives are the safest and highest performing adhesives available.
5. How long do Lashe Spot Eyelash Extensions last?
When applied properly, semi-permanent extensions can last a full month, or even longer, depending on the growth cycle of your natural eyelashes. To maintain the look, Re-Lashe appointments are necessary every 2 to 3 weeks to replace the lashes that have shed or outgrown. Our adhesives are formulated to hold the lash in spite of water, heat, steam or sweat, and can keep up with your busy lifestyle. Lashe Spot Coating Sealant, the only American made sealant available, can be applied to prolong the life of the extensions.
6. Will I be able to sense that I am wearing Lashe Spot Eyelash Extensions?
No! Because the extensions are placed away from the base of the natural eyelashes, you won't be able to feel the extensions. Lashe Spot extensions unique lightweight design ensures that your new extensions will feel like they are your natural eyelashes. Lashe Spot extensions are the only extensions available that have been completely designed to mimic a natural eyelash in shape and weight. Lashe Spot adhesive is so flexible that the lashes move with your natural lashes, even in a wind gust. You will be able to freely touch your lashes, and with a Lashe Spot certified technician application, you won't be able to notice the extensions have been applied.
7. Can I apply Lashe Spot Eyelash Extensions to my own lashes?
No! Only a trained and Lashe Spot certified professional will be able to safely apply Lashe Spot extensions. Eye injury or clumpy, unnatural looking lashes are likely to result from unprofessional or self application. Lashe Spot Certified Technicians have gone through rigorous hands-on training in advanced application and design techniques, and can create a custom look tailored to your features. Our clients love the unique looks we create for them, and some exclaim we are an eyelift without the scalpel!
8. Can I swim, spa or have a facial service while wearing extensions?
Yes! Lashe Spot extensions were designed to keep up with your busy lifestyle. Our clients love how our extensions last and last, even when worn on vacation, skiing, swimming, snorkeling, and sunning all day! We recommend that you wait 24 to 48 hours before visiting the spa to allow adequate adhesive bonding. After that, resume your regular schedule.
9. Can I wear mascara with Lashe Spot Eyelash Extensions?
Yes! Although the extensions give the appearance of wearing mascara, some women choose to wear mascara. Lashe Spot only recommends using Lashe Spot Mascaras, which have been specially formulated for Lashe Spot extensions. Other mascaras will cause premature shedding. If you choose to wear mascara, apply sparingly and only on tips; never apply from base to tip. We only recommend using Lashe Spot Eye Make-Up Removers, which were also specially formulated not to affect the bond of Lashe Spot Adhesive.
10. Do Lashe Spot Eyelash Extensions harm my natural lashes?
No! Since Lashe Spot extensions are applied your existing natural lashes away from the base, the growth cycle of the natural lash is not affected. The extensions are placed one millimeter away from the base of the lash, where no contact to the skin occurs. You must have some natural eyelashes for this procedure. Extensions should not be applied on individuals who have recently completed or are undergoing chemotherapy, have alopecia, or who suffer from trichotillomania or thrichosis. If you have any eye condition where the eye does not look healthy or have an adhesive allergy, you are probably not a candidate for eyelash extensions. Consult with your ophthalmologist for a recommendation.
11. How long does an Lashe Spot Eyelash Extension Application take?
Depending on the skill level of the technician, a Lashe Spot Certified Technician will take between 45 to 90 minutes to apply a full set of extensions. How many eyelash extensions are in a Lashe Spot full set? Here is where the real difference is! A Lashe Spot full set application consists of between 130 to 150 extensions placed on each eye, not the typical 90 extensions from current industry technicians. The results are astonishing! Depending on how many natural lashes you have, the Lashe Spot certified technician can apply 120 or more lashes to most clients. The Lashe Spot Studio also trains technicians to be real artisans when it comes to the application. Lashe Spot Studio trains Lashe Spot Certified technicians to take into account a client's face shape, eye shape, eye placement, and brow arch to create a unique look for every client. That result is a customized eye-enhancing look.
12. Is the Eyelash Extension Application comfortable?
Yes! It is such a comfortable process that most of our clients are so relaxed that they fall asleep. During the application, you are reclined on a massage bed with specialty leg and neck pillows with the eyes closed. It is the same as going for a facial, although with Lashe Spot certified technicians, you won't even feel like they are working on your eyes.
13. Is there a difference between Lashe Spot Eyelash Extensions and other products available?
Yes! The three main differences are how natural Lashe Spot extensions look, how long that they last and how they affect your natural eyelashes. Some products available are: eyelash strips, flares, clusters, lash tabs, mascara that creates tubes, or the new eyelash growing liquids on the market.
False eyelash strips are the oldest and probably most well known product. They involve using a gummy adhesive that touches the skin. The lashes are made of various materials and are the least natural looking. Lash strips only last a day and can come off or dislodge during the course of wear. They can also clog your pores and glands, potentially creating infections and will cause your lashes to grow in thinner. Flares, clusters, and lash tabs are often misrepresented in the market as eyelash extensions. These products consist of between 3 to 8 lash bunches with a node or knot at the end. Lengths and quantities of lashes in the bunch may vary, but application involves adhesive touching the skin or the node adhered to multiple natural lash bases, depending on the size of the node. Lash tabs, clusters, flares and strips can also often clog the pores on your eyelids and are dangerous to those having adhesive allergies. Beware of the individual eyelashes that come in trays! These lashes may look like they are the same as single eyelash extensions, but they are the farthest thing from it. They may have a single or multiple strands, and glued to the tray using an adhesive bead. Often this is the adhesive used to adhere to the lashes and it is clear and gummy. If eyelash adhesive is used in conjunction with the adhesive the look will not be natural at all.
Mascaras that create tubes do not create volume and length as extensions do. The product smudges and creates the raccoon-eye effect. Over usage of this product weakens and damages the lashes. Removal of this product from your lashes is often very difficult due to the mascara's thick nature.
The new lash growing liquids are very difficult products to use, and to see results application must be done twice daily consistently. The issues with these products are if you have thin or weak lashes you will just grow longer thin or weak lashes. The liquid must be precisely applied and evenly distributed, as it is possible to grow hair on undesirable places or create patches of thicker lashes.
14. Are Eyelash Extensions Suitable for Men?
Yes! Who said only women can have beautiful lashes? Your Lash technician will choose a custom natural lenght and fullness for you.
