Losing Lash Extensions More in One Eye?



A client came into the salon in tears, wondering why she had been losing lashes on one eye and not the other. This is a common thing that can happen during sleep, I reassured her, and we did an infill so they would be balanced again. What happens in this case is that during sleep, if you roll over on to one side, the lashes on one eye can be more susceptible to being lost. It is an easy fix, thankfully. Sleeping on your back, and placing a pillow to lie on either side of your head to keep it in place during sleep will keep you from rolling in deep sleep and losing lashes.  Or you can fold your pillow and lay on your cheek making sure the lashes are free. 

Once you are in the habit of sleeping on your back it will be easier to stay that way—and another great reason to sleep on your back is that it is better for your spine and should keep from throwing it out of whack and having back and neck aches, another plus for beauty! Good posture is gorgeous on you! 

There are also wonderful pillows available to help with comfort, good posture, and keeping your head and neck aligned while you sleep. Try a buckwheat, water base pillow, or memory foam style. Each pillow has its own advantages and it may take a little research to find one that is most comfortable for you. Keeping your head and neck in a proper sleeping position will keep your lashes perfectly gorgeous, keep your fatigue to a minimum thanks to a great night sleep, and give you great posture—all prerequisites to beauty!
