They will feel completely weightless and natural during the day and evening. Your lashes will look fuller, darker, more defined, longer and thicker. You will no longer need to wear mascara.

When properly applied, they will last the full cycle of your natural lash cycle. The life cycle of a natural lash is the amount of time it takes for a natural lash to grow in and fall out. A person’s natural eyelash typically falls out every 60-90 days and is naturally replaced with a new eyelash. Typically, we lose between 2-5 lashes per day. Each lash is at a different growth stage. Due to this cycle, ‘eyelash refills’ are recommended every 2-4 weeks so as to fill in and keep them looking their best.

You will lie in a relaxed position; we have a heated blanket to make you feel more comfortable so most clients fall asleep. Eye patches are placed underneath each eye on top of your lower lashes to protect them as each faux mink lash is adhered to your individual lashes.

Typically, each treatment usually involves applying approx. 80-100+ lashes per eye.

No. It pays to spend that little bit extra to go to an experienced lash artist. At the time of consultation, we examine your natural lashes and combining age, quality of your natural lashes and lifestyle we will give you lashes that will not damage your natural lashes but will only compliment you. The eyelash extension is attached to your natural lash about 1-2mm from the root of your natural lash. The glue does not touch the skin. With proper aftercare you can continue to have your lash extensions until the end of time. Unless you pull out your lash with the extension attached you will create gaps across your lash line. Please see ‘Eyelash Extension Lash Care’.

Needless to say, your lash line will appear natural and glamorous. No more mascara or use of eyelash curlers will be necessary and very little aftercare required. The lashes will shed naturally along with your natural lash shedding cycle.

Depending on the amount of lashes or look that you like will depend on the cost. Eyelash extensions application cost range from €50 – €175. The initial procedure for a full set takes approx. 2 hrs. The ‘refills’ which are scheduled approx. every 2-4 weeks after initial appointment can take 1hr or more. You can book in for more time for your refills through our online booking.

For years the lash world has used the term mink for lash extensions but that doesn’t mean they are real mink.
