ALL FIRST TIME SEMI-PERMANENT COSMETIC PROCEDURES ARE MULTI-SESSION PROCESSES. An initial application is incomplete until after a follow-up appointment, which must be scheduled approximately 4-6 weeks after initial appointment. WHILE YOUR SKIN HEALS, BE PREPARED FOR THE AREA TATTOOED TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY LARGER, SHARPER, BRIGHTER, OR DARKER THAN WHAT IS EXPECTED FOR THE FINAL OUTCOME. This is a normal and expected result of the application and healing process. The healing process will take a number of days to complete, depending on how quickly the outer layer of your skin exfoliates and new skin regrows to take its place.
LASH EXTENSIONS
Failure to adhere to these instructions may cause extensions to fall off prematurely and could cause damage to natural lashes:
Please arrive to all appointments with clean, make-up free lashes
During the appointment, your eyes will be closed and covered. OPENING EYES DURING THE APPOINTMENT IS DANGEROUS and can cause redness and irritation.
If you wear contacts, please leave them out for the appointment and for 24 HOURS after each lash appointment.
DO NOT use oil based products around the eye area
DO NOT use mascara on the lash extensions
DO NOT get the eye area wet for 24 hours after each lash appointment
NO tinting or perming of the eyelash extensions (including lash curlers)
DO NOT pull or rub my eyelash extensions
Please use a disposable lash wand to brush your lashes DAILY
For the best retention, you should wash your lashes with lash bath every night to avoid makeup, dirt, and oils from sitting on the lash line.
To maintain eyelash extensions, you should schedule fill appointments every 2-3 weeks as recommended by your lash artist
