The lash lift is no stranger to the beauty world. It is a treatment that results in our lashes being semi-permanently curled for weeks by winding the hairs around a cylindrical rod. A lash lift is the perfect complement to an eyelash tint. In fact, for most clients, you will get the best results by tinting immediately after the lash lift.

The process involves using chemicals to change the structure and texture of the lashes. Depending on the size of the shield used, the lashes can be lifted more or less dramatically. 

The lash lift will provide you with lovely, long-lasting lash curls. Just one 60-minute professional treatment is all it takes to deliver a sumptuous lash lift that lasts, even after a shower or swimming, for up to 8-12 weeks.

This treatment lifts lashes from the root and creates the illusion of longer-looking lashes while also opening the eyes and enhancing the natural lashes. It is suitable for both short and long lashes, as well as all eye shapes.

That said, do yourself a favour and save time getting ready in the mornings. Consider trying the lash lift to achieve beautiful, curled lashes without the need for daily curling or mascara application.

Eyelash Lift & Tint MAY NOT be suitable for clients who:

  1. Are pregnant. If you have an appointment and discover that you are pregnant, please contact me immediately so we can reschedule.

  2. Have very few natural eyelashes or none at all. The gaps between your lashes may be more noticeable.

  3. Have pre-existing eye (lid) conditions, such as chronic dry eye, blepharitis, conjunctivitis, and ocular rosacea. A doctor’s clearance will be required prior to the appointment.

  4. Have undergone Lasik surgery (wait a minimum of 6 months from your procedure). A doctor’s clearance will be necessary prior to the appointment.

  5. Have Trichotillomania (compulsive pulling or twisting hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes).

  6. Tend to be rough with their lashes.

  7. Are undergoing chemo treatments or have had chemo treatments within the past year (recommend consulting with your doctor first and obtaining a clearance).

  8. Have sensitivity or allergies to dyes (it is recommended to book an appointment for a patch test).

  9. Have very sensitive eyes or possible allergies to adhesive (it is recommended to book an appointment for a patch test).

  10. Have had blepharoplasty surgery (must wait a minimum of 1 year after your surgery) and will require a doctor’s clearance.

Properly trained and skilled professionals ensure that the correct lash lift procedures are followed.

The duration of the process typically takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour, although it may vary depending on the length and thickness of your eyelashes and whether you are getting them tinted. This also includes the time taken for the initial consultation.

A lash lift and tint typically have a duration of 6 to 12 weeks. However, the longevity of the results may vary among clients due to differences in their lash growth cycles. Certain situations can lead to premature drop or weakening of the lift, such as swimming, using harsh products, or exposing the lashes to excessive heat.

If you notice that your lash lift does not last the full 2-3 months, you have the option to repeat the treatment. However, it’s essential to wait a minimum of 6 weeks after the initial treatment before scheduling a new one. Rushing the process may not yield the desired results.

Gently use mild products and always wait 24-48 hours before doing this. Remember to follow the aftercare instructions carefully.

A lash lift will gradually start to return to its natural state after approximately 2 months, and your lashes will revert to their original appearance. The lashes should drop evenly, ensuring they don’t appear out of place. If you feel the need, you can opt to repeat the treatment after a minimum of one month, or you can wait until your lashes have fully regained their natural state.

Following your treatment, it is highly recommended to refrain from touching your lashes for at least 24 hours. In most cases, mascara may not even be necessary, as the lash lift provides ample volume. However, if you desire additional fullness, it is best to use a non-waterproof mascara. Waterproof mascaras can be harsh on the lashes and may weaken the lift, so it’s better to avoid them

No eyelash curler is needed for this treatment, as it provides superior results compared to using a curler. More importantly, using an eyelash curler may weaken and damage your lashes.

An eyelash lift & tint can last up to 6 – 12 weeks if you take proper care of your lashes. To ensure the longevity of your lashes, please follow these essential eyelash lift & tint aftercare tips:

  1. Avoid Getting Your Eyelashes Wet: Refrain from getting your eyelashes wet for at least 24 hours after the treatment. This will allow the lift and tint to set properly and last longer.

  2. Be Gentle with Your Eye Area: Avoid rubbing or touching the eye area to prevent any potential irritation. Gentle care will help maintain the lift and tint in good condition.

  3. Protect from Direct Sunlight: After the treatment, avoid direct sunlight as it can weaken the perm lotion and fade the tint. Consider wearing sunglasses or staying in the shade when outdoors.

  4. Avoid Oil-Based Beauty Products: To prolong the life of the lift and tint, steer clear of oil-based beauty products as they can cause the perm and tint to fade faster.

  5. Sleep on Your Back: For the first 24 hours after the procedure, refrain from sleeping with your face laid on the pillow. Instead, try to sleep on your back to prevent any kinks in your lashes.

  6. Avoid Pulling Your Lashes: Resist the temptation to pull or tug at your lashes, as doing so can cause your natural lashes to fall out prematurely and lead to breakage and permanent damage to the hair follicle.

  7. Schedule Regular Touch-Ups: To maintain beautiful lifted and tinted lashes, consider booking your eyelash lift & tint treatment again after 6-12 weeks.

By following these aftercare tips diligently, you can maximize the lifespan of your eyelash lift & tint and enjoy stunning lashes for weeks to come.
