Frequently Asked Questions
Eyelash extensions are safe when applied by a trained professional and, if cared for properly, won’t damage your natural lashes. At Sheer Lash and Beauty, we use professional-grade adhesive that never touches your skin, and each extension is applied 1mm away from your lash line for precise placement.
Your natural lashes shed as part of their normal growth cycle, which isn’t affected by the extensions. Lashes go through three phases:
Growth Phase (Anagen): Lasts 4-6 weeks, where lashes actively grow.
Transition Phase (Catagen): Lasts 2-3 weeks, when growth stops.
Resting Phase (Telogen): Lasts 100+ days before lashes naturally shed.
I apply extensions to fully grown lashes, allowing smaller ones to develop naturally. With proper application and care, your lashes will stay healthy and beautiful! 💕
If you're new to eyelash extensions or have sensitive skin, we recommend a Patch Test at least 4 days before your first full set to check for any allergic reactions. In the rare case of a severe allergic reaction, please consult a medical professional. If a mild reaction occurs within 48 hours, we offer complimentary removal, but refunds are not available.
Lash extensions typically last 2-4 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle. For optimal fullness, refills are recommended every 2-3 weeks to replace fallen lashes.
Factors like humidity, steam, rubbing, sleeping on your face, or using oil-based makeup/removers can shorten their lifespan.
To protect your lashes while sleeping, consider using a 3D sleeping mask, available for $15 (pick up only). It helps reduce friction, prevents lash breakage from face pressure on pillows, and keeps your extensions looking full longer!
