1. Do Eyelash Extensions Damage Your Natural Lashes?
When applied by a qualified lash artist and cared for properly, eyelash extensions won’t damage your natural lashes.
Damage can happen only if:
-
Extensions are too heavy or long for your natural lashes
-
You rub or pull at your lashes
-
You skip cleaning, causing product or oil buildup
With gentle care and professional application, your natural lashes stay healthy and strong.
2. Aftercare Routine
First 24–48 Hours
-
Avoid water, steam, and saunas
-
Don’t touch or rub your lashes
-
Skip mascara and oil-based products
Daily Maintenance
-
Clean lashes daily with a gentle, oil-free lash cleanser
-
Brush lightly using a clean spoolie
-
Avoid waterproof mascara or oily makeup removers
-
Sleep on your back or use a silk pillowcase
-
Schedule infills every 2–3 weeks to maintain fullness
3. When Should You Take a Break From Eyelash Extensions?
For most clients, we recommend taking a lash break every 6–8 months (after about 5–6 infills).
A short break allows your natural lashes to:
-
Complete a full growth cycle
-
Recover from any light stress
-
Benefit from a conditioning lash serum
We will guide you based on your lash health and lifestyle.
