Eyelash extensions are currently one of the most sought-after beauty treatments, not only among celebrities but also among those who want to enhance their eyes and do away with mascara. What began as a celebrity fad has become a signature look for those who simply want to make an impression with their eyes.
Since Lashes Original opened its first salon in 2016 under the Lashes Madrid brand, thousands of people have placed their trust in our specialists, but many questions have also arisen. Drawing on this experience, we’ve created this guide with tips you should follow before getting eyelash extensions.
Be careful of allergies and intolerances
Before getting eyelash extensions, you should make sure you are not allergic to any of the components or materials used in the procedure, such as ethanol, polyester, latex, or others. The specialists at Lashes Original will inform you and ask you to fill out an informed consent form, in which you must also be sure to disclose any medical conditions or history that may be incompatible with the treatment. If so, the treatment cannot be performed.
Thoroughly remove all makeup from the eye area
Before getting your eyelash extensions, make sure you don’t have any mascara or makeup on your eyes. You also shouldn’t cleanse your eyes or apply oil-based products beforehand because, in both cases, your eyelash extensions may not adhere properly to your natural lashes, and the treatment won’t last very long. The specialists at Lashes Original in Madrid will carefully ensure that no makeup residue remains in the eye area before beginning your treatment.
Knowing what you want
Before applying your eyelash extensions, the specialists at Lashes Original in Madrid will assess your face shape and makeup habits to recommend the look that best suits you. However, it’s a good idea to come to the salon with an idea of what you’d like, so we can work together to make the best decision. If you know what you want from the start, the final result will be exactly what you’re hoping for.
You are unique
Eyelash extensions that look good on someone else may not necessarily suit you, no matter how much you think you look alike. Just as every person is unique, so is every treatment. That’s why the specialists at Lashes Original in Madrid will tailor the treatment to you, based on the condition of your natural lashes, your face shape, the size of your eyes, the shape of your eyelids, and, of course, what you’ve told them you want.
Enjoy the experience
Once you’ve made your decision, relax and enjoy the experience. Follow the instructions from the Lashes Original specialist in Madrid to the letter; they’ll tell you how long you need to keep your eyes tightly closed so that the manipulation of your lashes or the fumes from the adhesive don’t bother you. Some people fall asleep during the treatment, and that’s the best thing that can happen. When you wake up, you’ll have the lashes of your dreams.
