Getting eyelash extensions for the first time can be both exciting and a little nerve-wracking—especially if you’re not sure what the process involves. At our spa, we want every client to feel relaxed, informed, and thrilled with the results. Here’s a step-by-step look at what you can expect during your very first lash extension appointment:
1. Consultation and Customization
Before anything begins, your lash artist will talk with you about your desired look. Do you want something natural? Bold and dramatic? Somewhere in between? They'll also assess your natural lashes to determine the best length, curl, and thickness that suits your eye shape and lash health.
2. Getting Comfortable
Once your lash style is chosen, you’ll lie down on a cushioned table with your eyes closed. Many clients say it feels a lot like a mini nap session—some even doze off! Your lash artist will place under-eye pads or tape to protect your lower lashes and gently clean your lash line to ensure good adhesion.
3. The Application Process
This part can take anywhere from 90 minutes to 2 hours for a full set. Your lash artist will isolate each natural lash and carefully apply one (or more, in the case of volume lashes) extension using a professional-grade adhesive. It’s a meticulous process, but completely painless. Most clients say they feel nothing at all.
4. Aftercare Instructions
Once the lashes are complete, you’ll be shown your new look and given aftercare instructions. This typically includes avoiding water and steam for 24–48 hours, not rubbing your eyes, and using oil-free products near your lashes.
5. Follow-Up and Refills
To keep your lashes looking full, refills are usually recommended every 2–3 weeks. Your lash artist will help you set up your next appointment before you leave.
