Eyelash Extension lash cycle and retention
Eyelash Extensions are not permanent, however, they last between 2-4 weeks varying between individual to individual. the eyelash extensions are attached to the root of the clients natural eyelash.

with the gradual shedding of the clients natural lashes, the eyelash extensions will also shed along with it. After the 2-4 week period from the original lash appointment, it will be time for a fill/touch up session. At the fill appointment, the eyelash extension specialist will remove the extensions that are outgrown and apply new extensions closer to the root of the natural eyelash. extensions will also be applied on the newly grown out natural lashes. At the end of the fill/touch up session, the client will come out with a fresh new lash set.
