It took a lot of work to get your lashes done. Follow these steps to make them last.
-
Do not perm or tint lashes after lash extension application.
-
Do not use a regular eyelash curler to curl Extensions (you won't need to curl your extensions).
-
Do not rub your eyes or lashes when washing your face. Clean around the eyes with a wash cloth.
-
Do not pull your lash extensions, as it will take out your own lash as well!
-
Do not go in a Sauna while wearing Eyelash Extensions for at least for 48hrs. Do not get them wet at all for 24hrs

If you choose to wear mascara - only apply to the tips and use water-based mascara that washes off easily.
-
Do not try to remove the Extensions on your own, call me and I will remove them without harming your natural lashes.
-
Do not cut the Extensions (you may cut your own lashes).
-
Clean your eye make-up, but be gentle with your Extensions.
-
Remember to come in for touch ups (2-4 weeks).
-
Never tug, twist, pick or pull at your lashes or extensions.

Treat your eyes gently - as if you have makeup on that you don't want to smudge.
How to Take Care of Permanent Makeup: Brows, Eyeliners, &Lips
It will take anywhere from 7-14 days for the skin to begin to appear healed and for the pigment to fade to its regular shade.
Follow these steps to properly take care of your skin after PMU:
-
Avoid getting the area wet for up to 10 days, which includes keeping your face dry during a shower.
-
Don’t wear makeup for at least a week. This is because the pigments are still settling in to the shallow cuts in your skin caused by the blading.
-
Don’t pick at scabs, tug, or itch the eyebrow area.
-
Avoid saunas, swimming, and excessive sweating until the area is completely healed and you have a follow-up appointment.
-
For Eyebrow PMU, keep your hair away from your brow line.
-
Apply any medicated cream or healing balm provided by your technician as directed.
NOTE: Taking care of the area of skin where PMU took place is similar to tattoo care, if a bit more intensive. The pigment immediately following the procedure will appear quite dark, and the skin underneath will be red.
For Eyebrow Permanent Makeup, you should run a wet cotton swab that has been dipped in sterilized water over the area after 2 hours the procedure is done. This will get rid of any excess dye that’s on your brows. It will also keep the area sterile.
