Lash Extension Frequently Asked Questions

What are NaturaLash Eyelash Extensions?
NaturaLash Eyelash Extensions are single synthetic or natural hair lashes that are attached to each of
your individual eyelashes, one at a time, with a minute amount of special long-lasting
NaturaLash Black or Clear Adhesive. If correctly applied, they are practically
undetectable to you or anyone else. They will add length, thickness, and fullness that
can’t be achieved with traditional makeup.
How long do they last?
Eyelash extensions are on ongoing service. They must be “Refilled” every 2 to 5 weeks
depending on many factors including your lifestyle, skin type, etc. At the Refill service,
the technician will remove (not trim) any lashes that have grown out or become loose
with a special Adhesive Remover. New extensions will also be applied until the
eyelashes are full and complete. They do require some maintenance and aftercare
instructions must be followed for best results. Ask your Certified NaturaLash Technician
for more information on aftercare procedures and products that will help extend the
longevity of your lush new lashes.
How long does it take to apply a full set?
A nice full application of NaturaLash Eyelash Extensions will take any where from 1 ½
to 3 or more hours depending on what type of look you are going for and the Technician. This is a
very tedious, time consuming procedure if done correctly, but the results are definitely
worth it!

How many extensions are applied on each eye?
NaturaLash Certified Technicians are taught to apply at least 30 to 60 or more extensions
per eye. The result is long, beautiful, and natural looking, lush eyelashes. Remember that
you are limited to the number of natural eyelashes available that eyelash extensions can
attach to. Even sparse eyelashes will be greatly enhanced with NaturaLash Eyelash
Extensions!
Does it hurt?
No. If correctly applied, the products do not contact your skin and you won’t
even notice that you are wearing them. The application procedure is painless; they are not
"woven" in and there are no punctures in the skin.
How much do they cost?
The fees for professional eyelash extensions vary according to your location and
technician. In general, prices range from $200 to $600 with an average fee of $250-$350
for the initial set.
Refill fees will be determined by each technician. Some will charge per extension or by
time. It is very important to know that all client’s have different needs. Lifestyle,
weather (humidity, extreme cold and heat), and swimming play a part in the longevity of
your lashes. At the first refill, usually 2 weeks after the initial set, your technician will be
able to determine a schedule of appointments to keep your new lashes looking great.
How do I know if the person offering eyelash extensions is qualified?
Ask for a certificate or proof of training. (Certified NaturaLash Technicians undergo
extensive training with ongoing support by our experienced instructors.) Ask for a
portfolio of close up before and after photos; the extensions should be undetectable.
Check for undesirable clumps of adhesive which means poor technique. Extensions
should be applied to a single natural eyelash - one on one. Ask how long the initial
application takes and how many extensions are applied. A full set should be at least 30-60
extensions
per
eye, (depending on the number of natural eyelashes available) and will
require around 1 1/2 to 3 hours (or more) to apply a nice full set. Be sure the technician is
appropriately licensed in the beauty or healthcare industry and carries liability insurance
How can I make them last longer?
Your Certified NaturaLash Technician will review aftercare instructions with you and
suggest products that will help you maintain your new eyelashes. Constantly rubbing
your eyes or cleaning them vigorously will certainly decrease their longevity. Do not use
any oil containing cleansers or waterproof mascara (We do not recommend using
mascara but do have special mascara which is available through your NaturaLash
Technician).
Will they make my own eyelashes fall out?
Not if the eyelash extensions are applied correctly, but your natural lashes do shed every
30-120 days (according to different sources). Incorrect application can increase shedding
and loss. Our certified technicians learn correct application in workshops where they are
required to understand and show proficiency in applying and removing the extensions.
Our clients have worn NaturaLash Eyelash Extensions for years with no need for a
"break". Proper application is the key to prevent damage.
Can I swim?
Most people will be able to swim and enjoy water activities. Swimming can shorten the
life of the extensions for some people. Everyone is different. Showering with hot water
can also affect the extensions. The adhesives are waterproof but the hair shafts absorb
water which can loosen the adhesive bond. Unfortunately, there is not a correct answer
for everyone. As with all skin, hair, makeup or body products, everyone can react
differently to the same product.​
My eyelashes are sparse, will they look thicker?
Your existing eyelashes will appear thicker but you are limited to the number of
eyelashes that you have. A Certified NaturaLash Technician who has developed or
learned advanced techniques, may be able to help you achieve a fuller look.
I do not have any eyelashes. Can I get eyelash extensions?
No. The extensions must have hairs to adhere to but your technician may be able to help
you with strip eyelashes and makeup techniques.
Can I still wear mascara?
One of the biggest benefits of wearing eyelash extensions is that you’ll no longer need
mascara! Many people still like to apply mascara and we have a special mascara to use
with extensions. Just ask your Naturalash Technician. (FYI - it is also a great mascara for
the lower eyelashes because it lasts and does not "smudge" easily, yet washes off with
water or our Special Eye Makeup Remover)
What lengths are available?
Naturalash Eyelash Extensions are available in 10 sizes from 6 mm to 15 mm long. This
give you the ability to choose a natural to very dramatic look. We offer 4 different
eyelash widths (1.0 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm, and .25mm) in two different curls (Girly curl
and Natural Curl).
