How to care for your lash extensions.

Taking care of lash extensions is essential to make them last longer and maintain their appearance. Here are some tips:

1. **Avoid Water for the First 24-48 Hours**

Keep your lashes dry initially to allow the adhesive to fully cure. Avoid swimming, steam rooms, and showers that produce a lot of steam.

2. **Use Oil-Free Products**

Oil can weaken the adhesive bond, causing lashes to fall out prematurely. Opt for oil-free makeup removers and cleansers around your eyes.

3. **Clean Your Lashes Regularly**

Use a gentle lash cleanser or diluted baby shampoo with a clean brush. This helps remove dirt, oil, and any debris that can lead to irritation or infection.

4. **Avoid Mascara and Eyeliner on Lash Line**

Lash extensions are meant to add volume and length, so mascara isn’t necessary. Using it can clump and damage the extensions. If you must use mascara, choose one specifically formulated for extensions.

5. **Don’t Rub or Tug**

Avoid rubbing or pulling at your extensions. This can cause premature shedding of both your natural lashes and the extensions.

6. **Sleep on Your Back**

Try to sleep on your back to prevent lashes from rubbing against the pillow, which can cause them to twist or fall out.

7. **Brush Them Daily**

Gently brush your extensions with a clean spoolie brush each day to keep them looking neat and tangle-free.

8. **Schedule Regular Fills**

Most lash extensions will need a fill every 2-3 weeks to maintain a full look.

9. **Avoid Heat**

Exposure to heat (from saunas, direct sunlight, or cooking steam) can cause the extensions to weaken and lose their curl.

Following these steps will help keep your lash extensions looking fresh, full, and fabulous for longer!
