Lashes
Eyelash extensions
Eyelash extensions add volume, length and curvature to your natural existing lashes making you feel beautiful and confident. Once on, these lashes should feel and blend with your natural lashes. There is no need for eye pinching with mascara curler and clumpy mascara application. Lash extensions give you the most gorgeous and voluminous lift that feels weightless. They are comfortable to wear. They are made to last up to 4 weeks. If done correctly, lash extensions should last through face washing, sweat and other environmental conditions your face may go through. Lastly, UVO Beauty use special high quality glue that is nontoxic and safe for the eyes. The lashes we use are soft so it won’t damage your natural lashes.
What to Expect?
Pre-Requisites
- Please keep in mind that this is a 2 step process.
- The first & second visits have separate fees.
- It is VERY IMPORTANT to complete the 2 visits, which is usually 30-60 days apart.
- Each individual heals differently as our body chemistries are different and responds differently to the pigments.
- The initial look of the brows in the first 10 days will be very defined and is NOT the final result.
- If the 2nd visit is not attended to, the brows will gradually fade away.
- Occasionally, a 3rd visit is necessary for certain clients, 30 days later after the 2nd visit; this is not uncommon.
Post Procedure
Eyelash extension longevity highly depends on proper care by each individual. There are many factors that can affect how long your eyelash extensions last. Several factors can affect the longevity of your lash extensions, including your body chemistry, natural lash fallout cycle, sleep position, and the natural oils your skin—especially your eyelids—produces. External elements like weather conditions (such as allergies, rain, and humidity), as well as the makeup and skincare products you use, can also play a role. Additionally, certain medications and health conditions may impact retention.
