We know beauty salons will walk you through aftercare post treatment, but what about how to prepare for your appointment? 

There are a few factors to keep in mind to ensure you're going to achieve the best results from your service. 

Before your Lash Extension or Lash Lift appointment:

• Avoid caffeine at least 4 hours before your appointment. Caffeine will cause your eyes to flutter and move excessively. This can make the application process extremely difficult for the lash artist as we have to carefully isolate each eyelash for correct isolation. Please wait until after your appointment to get your caffeine hit!
• Discontinue wearing mascara for 2-3 days prior to your appointment, especially waterproof formulas (if possible). After removing mascara, residue is left behind on the lashes and causes the lash extensions to not adhere to the natural lash properly. Lash extensions do not stick to dirty lashes. Please arrive with no makeup around the eye area on the day of your lash appointment. 
• If you have previously had a Lash Lift but have booked for a Full Set of Lash Extensions - ensure you have waited at least 6-8 weeks until the natural lashes have grown out and no longer lifted. Applying Lash Extensions too soon after a Lash Lift can lead to retention issues. 
• Wear comfy clothes. Your lash appointment is your time to unwind and relax. Wear clothes that are comfortable to lay down in for a few hours. 
• Use the restroom prior to your appointment. As you will be laying down and keeping still for a long period of time, it is important to use the restroom prior to your appointment so there is as minimal disruptions as possible.
• We love a chat but try to minimise talking during your Lash Appointment. When you talk, the movements from your cheeks can move the eye pads and may irritate your eyes while they are closed. It may also allow fumes from the adhesive in the bottom of your eye or cause your eyes to flutter. If you have a difficult time nodding off and having a lash nap, feel free to bring your Airpods/earphones and listen to your favourite playlist or podcast!
• Keep in mind - not everyone's results are the same. Lash extension & Lash Lift results vary depending on how many natural lashes you have to work with, thickness and length. How they look and how long they last after your appointment will be different for each client.
