Eyelash Extensions

 

Wonder why celebrities' lashes always look so perfect?

Eyelash Extensions

1. Know your myths!

Some say they are harmful to your natural lashes. This is false; in order to get them done, we need you to have a foundation of strong and healthy lashes so they can support the slight extra weight. At Pia's, your lashes are applied by one of our experienced professionals.
Another myth we hear is, “They do not last for more than a week!" Actually, they could last for three weeks, depending on how much you are taking care of them. Later in this article, we'll discuss some tips for maintaining them, so they can always be full looking and natural.
The funniest myth we've heard is, “There's no way you can remove your eyelash extensions without ripping out your real ones.” This is absolutely untrue; removal is not necessary since they fall out with your natural lash cycle. We can also professionally remove them for you with a completely safe removal solution. There is no need to experiment at home.  

2. Different Types 

At Pia's, we offer different types of eyelash extensions: classic, volume, and hybrid. Our classic extensions lengthen and thicken your natural lashes. Each one is applied one by one to your own eyelashes, creating a natural, beautiful, luscious look. It is necessary to get touch-ups every 2-3 weeks to add lashes to the new growth, as a person's natural eyelashes fall out every 60 to 120 days. Whether you are looking for an everyday look, for your wedding day, or just a weekend away, our classic extensions will transform your look! There are two different characteristics clients desire: length and fullness.
While classic extensions add moderate to extreme length to your natural lashes, volume lashes are used to improve their texture, depth, and ampleness. Many clients are happy with the natural length of their eyelashes but desire a fuller look. Volume are designed to fill in the gaps where classic eyelash extensions could not. This technique allows the artist to apply multiple ones to an individual eyelash. Each one of them is extremely lightweight and requires a fraction of the safe lash adhesive used with old techniques. Both options are great alternatives to applying your own fake lashes and achieving a more natural look. 

3. Maintenance Tips and Tricks

The first 24-48 hours are crucial. Avoid steam from showers, facials, and saunas, as any excess moisture can break down the adhesive. Our lashes are waterproof, but avoid these activities for the first day. The less you do, the longer they will last. These ones are already perfectly curled, so no need to apply mascara, lighten up on the shadow and liner and ditch the curler. If you decide to wear any shadow or liner, use an oil-free makeup remover or wipes. Wipe upward towards your brows instead of down. Pick up some disposable mascara wands for daily cleaning and maintenance. Brush the tops of your lashes to remove any lint or dust.
