How to Avoid the Horrors of LASHrehab!

Are you guilty of abusing your eyelashes in the name of beauty? Perhaps you are blissfully unaware of the damage you may be causing, but it is high time you became LASHaware! The importance of looking after your own, natural eyelashes cannot be stressed enough. Why? Because you cannot enhance what don’t have in the first place! And whilst it is true that maltreated lashes will grow back eventually, (sometimes taking up to three months), continual abuse can create permanent damage.

We don’t want to see you ending up in LASHrehab, so here’s some useful information on how to avoid it:

Firstly, at the LASH salon we are often asked the question: “Do eyelash extensions permanently damage the natural lash?” The answer is no, individual extensions do not damage the natural lash unless incorrect aftercare occurs. Problems can also arise if an eyelash extension has been applied which is too heavy for the natural lash.

For those seeking to enhance their natural eyelashes, it is important to understand the different procedures that are available, and the possible pitfalls to be found along the way. First, let’s have a look at the treatments that could see you winding up in LASHrehab.

Lash On Lash: Warning! High risk of landing in LASHrehab! This is an express lash extension service taking about thirty minutes. Extensions are placed on top of the eyelashes and are bonded to several natural lashes at once. Because of this, it is extremely important to remove them after two weeks; otherwise, your eyelashes can be pulled out as they grow. This treatment is for the short-term only.

Cluster Lash: Warning! High risk of landing in LASHrehab! During this procedure, lashes are knotted at the base and are placed in between the natural eyelashes. The clusters are applied to several natural lashes at once, and it is very important to remove them after two weeks, otherwise the natural lashes may be pulled out prematurely as they grow. This treatment should take about fifteen minutes, and is for short-term use only.

Strip Lash: Warning! Medium to Low risk of landing in LASHrehab! Also known as false eyelashes, they should be removed daily. With proper care, they can be worn over and over again, and take only five minutes to apply.

Finally, let us look at the option least likely to see you winding up in LASHrehab, and the one that produces the best results.

Lash by Lash: In this procedure, an extension is placed on an individual eyelash. This creates the best and most natural looking effect, and lasts for the whole cycle of the natural eyelash. This type of extension can be worn indefinitely as there is no risk of damage to the natural lashes or their growth.

In order to perform the treatment of individual eyelash extensions within the UK, technicians are required to be trained, certified, and insured. Working near the eyes with a lash by lash application takes great skill and professional training, as well as a range of special products. The treatment can take up to two hours.
So avoid a visit to LASHrehab, and treat yourself to some beautiful lash by lash extensions by one of our talented and trained professionals.

We look forward to seeing you.
