A full set of eyelash extensions takes between 1-2.5 hours depending on the fullness of your natural lashes and the lash set/style. Refills take approximately 30-90 minutes depending on the set/style. 

Lash lifts and brow laminations will take approximately 1 hour.

Here’s a little rundown on each type to help you choose your next set of lash extensions:

Silk Lash: This is the most common type of lashes. All of the lashes we use are synthetic fibers (real silk would disintegrate within days and not hold its curl). Silk lashes have a slightly more matte/natural black finish, and the ends are not quite so tapered as mink. We use silk lashes in all of our volume sets because due to their texture, they fan out more than mink.

Faux Mink Lash: Faux mink lashes are designed to mimic the look and feel of real mink lashes and do not actually come from mink! They are very glossy and black in color, slightly thinner on the ends and lighter than silk lashes.

Cashmere Lash: These are not actually made from animal fur! The term cashmere simply describes the softness, delicate structure, and lightweight feel of these lashes. They are up to 60% lighter than mink lash extensions and the ends are thinner at the ends than faux mink lashes making them more flexible and softer to the touch.

Ellipse Lash / Flat Lash: These are a relatively new development, where the cross section of the extension is flatter or more oval in shape than silk lashes. The benefit is that they provide a thicker, fuller look without any extra weight (each fiber appears wider, though does not actually weigh more than a silk lash). They also last quite well due to their shape. They are not really suited to very natural looks, and are better for those who like a glamourous, darker look. Flat just refers to the cross section of the lash fiber, not the curl. They come in all the same curl types as other lashes.

We do not recommend wearing mascara as it will reduce the retention of your eyelash extensions and the mascara residue may prevent us from doing regular 1-4 week refills.

However, if you cannot resist wearing mascara, then only use water based mascara. Do not use oil-based or water-proof mascara as it will dissolve the bonding agent and shorten the life of your eyelash extensions. Also, the brush can potentially pull on your eyelash extensions and cause them to be damaged, loosened, or removed.
