Preparing for an eyelash appointment is crucial to ensure the best results and a comfortable experience. Here’s a list of steps clients can take to prepare:

Before the Appointment

  • Avoid Eye Makeup:

    • Come to your appointment with a clean face. Avoid wearing eye makeup, especially mascara or eyeliner, as it can make it more difficult to apply lash extensions and may affect the adhesive bond.

  • Clean Your Lashes:

    • If you must wear makeup, make sure to remove it thoroughly before your appointment. Use a gentle, oil-free makeup remover or cleanser to ensure your lashes and the area around your eyes are completely clean.

  • Avoid Caffeine:

    • Try to avoid caffeine or other stimulants before your appointment. Being too caffeinated can make it harder to relax during the session.

  • Consult About Allergies:

    • If you have any known allergies or sensitivities, let your lash artist know ahead of time. This includes any allergies to adhesives or other beauty products.

  • Consider Lash Health:

    • If you’ve had recent eye infections or any issues with your natural lashes, it’s best to address these before scheduling your appointment. Healthy lashes ensure a better outcome.

Day of the Appointment

  • Arrive on Time:

    • Make sure to arrive at your appointment on time to avoid feeling rushed and to allow the full duration needed for the procedure.

  • Dress Comfortably:

    • Wear comfortable clothing and avoid tight or restrictive clothing that might make you uncomfortable during the session. You’ll be lying down for an extended period, so comfort is key.

  • Communicate with Your Lash Artist:

    • If you have any preferences or specific styles in mind, discuss them with your lash artist before the procedure begins. Clear communication ensures that you get the look you desire.

  • Be Ready to Relax:

    • Bring something to help you relax during the appointment, like a pair of headphones and your favorite music or a book. This can make the time pass with more ease.

  • Avoid Using Oil-Based Products:

    • Oil-based products can weaken the adhesive bond used for lash extensions. Avoid applying any oil-based skincare or cosmetic products around your eyes on the day of your appointment.

After the Appointment

  • Follow Aftercare Instructions:

    • Your lash artist will provide you with specific aftercare instructions. Follow these carefully to ensure your extensions last as long as possible and your natural lashes remain healthy.

  • Refrain from Touching:

    • Try to avoid touching or rubbing your eyes frequently. This can affect the longevity of the extensions and potentially lead to irritation.
