The lash lift is a treatment that makes your natural lashes look longer, fuller and denser by applying a mix of chemicals that curls them upwards. Some technicians call it an eyelash perm because a perming solution is used to lift and curl the lashes.

No extensions are involved here – just your natural lashes which are given a new shape.

The most popular version of the treatment involves both a lash lift and tint, so the hairs are also colored into a darker shade.

It’s a relatively long-lasting solution – it can last up to 8 weeks.

Anyone who wants a lash enhancement!

Many people opt for this treatment because they want a more natural, yet enhanced look.

The eyelash lift is a perfect solution for shortening your morning routine, because your lashes will look so good you won’t need any extra eye makeup.

It’s a more practical solution than lash extensions, because it requires no maintenance, just a few simple rules on the first day, and a slight adjustment to your skincare routine.

It works on anyone’s lashes, no matter their length or color, but the best results are achieved on clients with long straight lashes.

By curling the lashes upwards, the eye is opened up and refreshed, while adding lash tint makes use of even the thinnest lashes in the lash line, densifying it and giving it natural volume.

The results on an eyelash lift last as long as your lash growth cycle – 6-8 weeks.

The curl on your lashes will hold until they fall out. Not all of the lashes will be in the same phase of the growth cycle when they are curled, so some of them will fall out sooner than others. As more and more hairs fall out, the curl will gradually relax.

Your lashes will regain their natural shape after 6-8 weeks, at which point you can get a fresh eyelash perm.

Lash tint is an addition to the eyelash perm and it is optional.

Tinting is adding special dye to your eyelashes to make them permanently darker.

It’s a short, painless procedure.

Even though the eyelash lift treatment does not require any special preparation, there are several don’ts you should pay attention to:

• Don’t wear makeup to the appointment
• Try not to wear waterproof mascara for a week before the treatment, because your eyes need to be perfectly clean and without any traces of mascara
• Shower beforehand – you shouldn’t get your lashes wet for 24 hours after the procedure, so showering might be impractical
• If you wear contact lenses, take them off and wear glasses instead

One of the perks of the treatment is that the lash lift aftercare is not complicated at all.

You need to be careful for just 24 hours after the treatment and after that, you can continue with your normal daily routine.

These are the tips you need to follow:
• Don’t wear mascara for 24 hours after the treatment
• Don’t get your lashes wet. Don’t shower for 24 hours (or if you really have to, make it quick).
• Avoid steamy rooms, such as saunas.
• Don’t apply any products on your lashes during that period
• Don’t touch your lashes
• Brush through your lashes from time to time

Luckily, a lash perm is very easy to maintain after the initial aftercare period – the first 24 hours.

You shouldn’t get them soaking wet, or wear eye makeup, especially mascara.

After the first 24 hours have passed, you don’t have to pay any special attention to your eyelash lift.

You can sleep on your face, wear makeup, wear contact lenses, wash your face, rub your eyes.

The only thing to avoid in the first 20ish days are oil-based products.

After about 3 weeks, you can use oils, too.

Makeup is forbidden for 24 hours after the treatment.

After that, you can apply makeup as you usually do, with the exception of lash curler – that you should avoid.

If you get both lash lift and tint, you won’t need mascara.

You can wear it if you want to, just make sure not to use waterproof formulas, because you’ll probably need to rub harder to remove it, and this can pull out some of your curled lashes.

Using a lash curler is not advisable after the eyelash perm.

Your lashes are hardened with the setting solution and a lash curler might damage them.

After all, an eyelash curler is completely unnecessary since the same effect is already achieved with the treatment itself.

An eyelash lift does not require any touch-ups.

As your natural lashes grow, they take their natural shape. You can repeat the treatment after two months. The shortest period after which it can be redone is 6 weeks.
