How long does it take?
Eyelash extensions can take from about 1.5-2 hours for the initial application. Refill appointments can take up to 60mins, depending on how many weeks your initial appointment was. We recommend coming for a refill every 3-4 weeks.
Make-up and eyelash extensions
We do not recommend applying makeup unless absolutely needed, however mascara and liquid eyeliner is a big no no! If you use regular make-up, we recommended using our Lash Shampoo & Brush that is safe for your lashes to remove residue at the end of the day.
Eyelash extensions are extremely customizable to any look you want, from natural to full glam!. You can choose to have shorter natural lashes, large dramatic lashes, etc. Typically speaking, eyelash extensions don’t look fake unless that is the look that you are going for.
Refills
A refill is required to be within 5 weeks from the last lash appointment and must have 30% lash coverage to qualify for this service. Please be on time with clean lashes for your appointment as the service is time and home-based.
Please note that we do not provide refills on top of existing work done outside Essential Lashes.
Classic lash extensions are individual extensions to one natural lash and give you a more natural ‘mascara look’ vs Volume lash extensions are 3-9 thinner extensions to one natural lashes giving you more dramatic look
How long does it take?
For the first session, the entire procedure should take about 2-2.5. During this session, the technician will shape and style the client’s brows/lips for client approval. We then follow with pigment color selection. Once the client is satisfied with the choices, we begin the procedure.
The client is to come in for a follow up visit in order to have any minor necessary touch ups. The second session takes place after 4-6 weeks after the initial session. This session will take approximately 1.5-2 hours to complete.
How long does it last?
Since pigments are not implanted into the skin as deep as traditional tattoos, the area will naturally fade overtime. Microblading typically lasts 2-3 years, depending on skin type (normal, oily, dry), age (youthful/mature).
Skincare routine will also affect the lasting effect of the pigment: patients who tan, uses products with AHA or Glycolic Acid with fade faster as your skin will resurface faster. Each individual's color retention within the skin will vary.
To maintain the brows looking fresh, a touch up is suggested every 12-18 months. Clients can let the microbladed area fade over time, but please note a slight shadow may remain.
Yes! A touch up session after 4-6 weeks is necessary as everyone heals differently and outcome will vary. Certain areas may not pick up during first session and will need to be refilled. Pigment color may need to be adjusted, brow thickness and more strokes can be added. Individuals with oily skin often require a deeper shade during the touch up session as the oils tend to lighten the pigment. Most importantly, your touch up session is when we refine your brows to ensure it looks perfect and retains the color for the whole year!
Is it Painful?
The pain level for the procedure is considered mild to none. Prior to the procedure your brow technician will apply a topical anesthetic to numb the area, and also reapplied during the procedure. Everyone responds differently to anesthetic; depending on the client, the feeling of the procedure has been described as light cat scratches to not feeling anything. Topical anesthetics used may contain lidocaine, prilocaine, benzocaine, tetracaine and epinephrine.
After the procedure, redness and slight swelling in the area is normal. Clients describe the area feeling similar to a light sunburn. Clients can take Tylenol but not aspirin or ibuprofen.
