Unilash eyelash extensions are your ticket to stunning, alluring lashes that enhance your natural beauty. To ensure that your lashes stay fabulous and comfortable, it's important to follow some key do's and don'ts. We'll guide you through the best practices of wearing eyelash extensions and help you avoid common mistakes that can affect the longevity and appearance of your lashes.
The Do's:
1. Do Choose a Skilled Lash Artist: It all begins with choosing a skilled and certified lash artist. Professional application is key to achieving optimal results while safeguarding your natural lashes. Be sure to verify if lash artists need to be licensed in your area, and don’t hesitate to ask your stylist to show their credentials. In terms of expertise, most stylists refine their skills within 6 to 12 months. However, if you're seeking a more experienced stylist who can offer a variety of styles and better retention, look for someone with over two years of experience. At UniLash all stylists are licensed since it is required in San Diego, CA and all of th sttylists have 2+ years of practice.
2. Do Attend Regular Fills: To maintain the fullness and beauty of your extensions, schedule regular lash fill appointments every 2-3 weeks. This keeps your lashes looking fresh and extends their lifespan. For classic set it is recommended to schedule 2 weeks fill, for hybrid set 2-2.5 weeks, for volume set 2.5-3 weeks.
3. Do Keep Your Lashes Clean: Gently clean your lashes from 3 days a week to daily using a recommended lash cleanser. Clean lashes not only look better but also adhere well to your natural lashes.
4. Do Brush Your Lashes: Use a clean mascara wand or a lash brush to comb through your lashes daily. This keeps them neat and prevents tangling.
5. Do Protect Your Lashes While Sleeping: Consider using a silk or satin pillowcase to minimize friction on your lashes while you sleep. Sleeping on your back is the best way to help prevent them to fall off prematurely.
The Don'ts:
1. Don't Get Your Lashes Wet for the First 24 Hours: After your Unilash appointment, avoid getting your lashes wet for the first 24 hours. This allows the adhesive to cure properly, ensuring a strong bond.
2. Don't Use Oil-Based Products: Oil-based skincare and makeup products can weaken the lash adhesive. Stick to oil-free alternatives to extend the life of your extensions.
3. Don't Rub or Pull on Your Lashes: Avoid rubbing or pulling on your lashes, as this can cause damage or premature shedding. If you need to remove makeup, do so gently with a makeup remover designed for lash extensions.
4. Don't Use Mascara on Your Extensions: One of the benefits of Unilash extensions is that they already provide a mascara-like effect. Avoid using mascara on your extensions, as it can be challenging to remove and may lead to clumping.
5. Don't Ignore Any Issues: If you experience discomfort, irritation, or notice that your lashes are not behaving as expected, contact your stylist. Your lash extension should be both beautiful and comfortable.
