EYELASH EXTENSIONS
A set takes about an hour and a half to complete and will last between 2 and 3 weeks. The lash extensions are available in a number of curls, thicknesses, and colours. For more info, please see the FAQ page and check out the lash care page for tips on prolonging the life of your lash extensions.
Lash Care
DRY
Keep your lashes dry for 24 to 48 hours after application. No water, no steam, no sweating and no crying. Any moisture within 24 to 48 hours will weaken the glue and cause your lash extensions to fall out prematurely.
CLEAN
NO PERFUMES OR GLYCERIN
Use an oil free makeup remover to clean the lashes. Use a product that is both perfume and glycerin-free and that you don’t have to shake. We like to use L’Oreal Eye Makeup Remover.
HANDS OFF!
KEEPS YOUR PAWS OFF YOUR LASHES!
Do not pick, rub or pull at the lash extensions. Rubbing will cause damage to your natural lashes.
COMB AND STRAIGHTEN
Use a disposable mascara wand or tweezers to comb and straighten your lashes.
NO MIXING
Avoid all oily products near lashes such as mascara, creamy eyeshadow, pencil eyeliner, moisturizer and sunscreen. Oils weaken the glue and cause the lash extensions to fall out.
NO CURLING
Do not curl your lash extensions. You won’t need to.
KEEP THEM DRY!
AVOID DIRECT WATER PRESSURE WHILE SHOWERING.
During workouts, wear a sweat band or use a towel to avoid sweat coming in contact with the lashes.
FILL EM’ UP
It’s recommended that you get a lash fill every 3 to 4 weeks to keep them looking their best. Speaking of, might as well book now…
FAQ
If you need help, we have a list of frequently asked questions and answers. We strive to give you the best buying experience possible. Click a question below to view the answer.
Q: HOW LONG DO THE EYELASH EXTENSIONS LAST?
A: The lash extensions typically last anywhere from 3-5 weeks with proper care. Fills should be booked every 3-4 weeks to maintain your set.
Q: HOW MANY LASHES DO YOU APPLY FOR A CLASSIC FULL SET?
A: We apply lashes to every one of your natural lashes (except new growth). This is generally anywhere from 50-100 lashes per eye, depending on the number of natural lashes you have.
Q: WHAT ARE RUSSIAN VOLUME 3D LASHES?
A: Russian Volume 3D lashes are 3 light, thin lashes that are grouped together then applied to each lash allowing for maximum volume. Russian Volume 3D lashes can be mixed with Classic lashes to achieve your desired fullness.
Q: HOW LONG DO RUSSIAN VOLUME 3D LASHES LAST?
A: Russian Volume 3D lashes typically last a bit longer on average than Classic lashes. A fill should be scheduled every 3-5 weeks.
Q: WHAT TYPE OF EYELASHES DO YOU USE?
A: JK Beautique uses only high-quality synthetic mink & synthetic silk lashes in a wide variety of lengths, thicknesses, curls, and colours.
Q: CAN I FILL THE LASHES MORE THAN ONCE?
A: Yes. Lashes can be filled on an ongoing basis from the initial full set application – as long as the lashes aren’t too grown out or damaged. Using a product like Eyenvy can help maintain your lash health.
Q: DO YOU FILL OTHER PEOPLE’S LASH WORK?
A: We can fill other people’s lash work as long as the initial lash application was done properly. If not, we can do a removal and full set – but please keep in mind that a removal takes 15-30 minutes and appointment durations for full sets and fills vary.
Q: DOES THE PROCESS HURT?
A: Not at all. Most people fall asleep during the application.
Q: WHAT ARE THE CHANCES OF AN ALLERGIC REACTION?
A: It is very rare that someone has a reaction. The lashes are attached to your eyelash and not your skin, therefore minimizing the chances of reaction. Should you have a reaction, please contact us immediately.
Q: I WEAR CONTACT LENSES, IS THAT OK?
A: Yes. It is safe to wear the contact lenses during and after the application.
Q: WILL THE LASHES DAMAGE MY NATURAL LASHES?
A: With proper care and attention, the lash extensions will not damage your natural ones. See the lash care page for instructions.
Q: I WANT A VERY DRAMATIC LOOK, IS THAT POSSIBLE?
A: A dramatic look is possible, however it depends on the length and number of your natural lashes.
Q: I HAVE BLONDE LASHES, DOES THAT MATTER?
A: No. The glue is black and your natural lashes won’t be visible when the false lashes are attached.
Q: HOW DO I REMOVE THE LASHES?
A: You can book an appointment here for a removal, or if most of the lashes have fallen off naturally, you can soak the remaining lashes in a baby oil or olive oil for a few hours, then gently begin to remove lashes with a Q-tip.
Q: CAN I WEAR MASCARA WITH LASH EXTENSIONS ON?
A: We do not recommend it. There are oils in regular mascara that will remove the lashes prematurely. However, if you need to use mascara, we sell an oil-free extension mascara at JK Beautique.
Q: IS THERE ANYTHING I SHOULD DO BEFORE COMING TO MY APPOINTMENT?
A: Come with clean eyes, makeup and mascara-free eyes if possible. Otherwise we have makeup remover available here. So what are you waiting for…?
