FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • What are lash extensions?
    Lash extensions are not the same as strip lashes. They are semi-permanent, synthetic lashes that are glued to your natural lashes through the use of lash adhesive. They are placed on indivudually, either on each lash or every other lash, depending on the look you are going for.
  • How do I prepare for lash extensions?
    Before your appointment, make sure that there is no eye makeup or excess product such as moisturizer around your eye area. The area should be as clean as possible. Please shower before appointment, or washyour hair as you won't be able to get lashes wet for 24 hours. If your go-to mascara is waterproof, you should avoid this a couple of days before your lash extensions. Otherwise, this may interfere with the application. We recommed removing contact lenses. Once the lashes have been applied, you can wear contact lenses again.
  • How much do extensions cost?
    At Lash House, we offer many different lash extension treatments. All prices are listed on our square booking site.
  • What are lash fills?
    Your lashes will require lash fills, which is the re-application of lashes in areas that may have experienced lash fall out or gaps. They are recommended to keep your lashes looking full and fierce, avoiding looking gappy.
  • How often should I get fills?
    As women, we have between 90-120 natural lashes on our upper lash line. However, these will shed daily, an average of 2-5 lashes per day. We recommend booking an appointment for a lash fill every 2-3 weeks.
  • Can I wear mascara with lash extensions?
    You don't need to wear mascara with lash extensions, as they basically act as mascara anyway. WIth extensions, your lashes will look fuller, darker and longer. We recommend avoiding mascara altogether, especially with the more natural, lighter lashes as this will add weight to the lashes and give a higher risk of them falling out. If you do decide to wear mascara, make sure you use oil-free makeup remover and be gentle, otherwise it may cause lashes to fall out. You must not use any oil-based products around your lashes, as this may break down the adhesive that keeps lashes intact. Avoid waterproof mascara completely as this can ruin your lash extensions and will be very hard to get off.
  • How do I look after my lash extensions?
    Don't pick at them. Picking at your eyelashes may weaken them and even make them fall out. This will result in bald patches along your lashline, and a lash fill will be necessary to restore them. Brush your eyelashes every morning and night. Use a clean spoolie brush to brush through your lash extensions. This will keep them in order and looking neat. It can also break down any pollen or dust on the lashes which can lead to infection. Sleep on your back the first night. Slee
