FAQ's

Who wears eyelash extensions?
You don't have to be a celebrity or model to wear eyelash extensions. Normal everyday ladies love eyelash extensions and can't bear to be without them. Lava Lounge's clients includes Mums, Nurses, Beauty therapists, Surgeons, Dentists, Lawyers, Financial Advisors, Business owners, Nail technicians, university students, Hairdressers to name a few.

How are the eyelash extensions applied?
A single natural eyelash is isolated and a synthetic lash is glued to the top of your own natural eyelash approximately 1mm from the eyelid so neither the glue or the lash has contact with the skin.

How long does the application take?
The procedure will take approximately 1 1/2 hours for a full set and approximately 45 minutes for a half set. It is a meticulous procedure that requires patience and concentration so therefore it should not be rushed so that clients can leave with a perfect set of lashes. You relax with your eyes closed and there is no pain as this is a non-invasive procedure.

Can I do eyelash extensions myself?
No. Eyelash extensions can only be applied by a trained professional.

Do eyelash extensions make my own lashes fall out?
No, definitely not. The eyelash has a cycle and are constantly being replaced like your hair. If you pull so hard on an extension lash and pull out your own natural lash there will be no new lash ready to grow to take its place and you will have to wait 6-8 weeks for that lash to grow.

Can I wear mascara?
If desired you can wear a non-waterproof on the lower lashes but remember to use an eye makeup remover that contains no oil. We recommend and Stock Youngblood or Makeup Fix RX Mascara. Perfect and safe for your Eyelash Extensions.

Can I curl or perm eyelash extensions?
No, do not perm your beautiful new eyelash extensions. Anyway you won’t have to as the extension lashes hold their lovely shape. Using a clamp eyelash curler is not recommended and will lessen the life of your eyelash extensions and perhaps damage them. You can however use a heated eyelash curler but do not over use it only using it when necessary.

How long do they last?
Approximately 2-4 weeks if you respect your new lashes and take care of them. Remember this is a semi-permanent beauty procedure. Do not be duped by those who promise “permanent” extensions or attachments that last for 2+ months. A real lash’s life cycle is around 25-28 days, and as yours grow and fall out, so will the synthetic ones that are attached. If your hair and nails grow quickly then that will mean that your lashes also are growing, shedding and renewing themselves quickly so you may find that your lashes will not last as long as someone whose hair growth is slow. Your life style and what work you do will also make a difference how long they last. A ladies lashes working in the food industry where there is alot of heat, steam and oil may not last as well as a lady who works in an air conditioned office.

I had eyelash extensions applied a few days ago and a few lashes have fallen out - why?
As explained above the lash has a growth cycle and unfortunately it is hard to determine which lash is ready to fall out naturally so it is unpredictable when applying the synthetic lashes. Each day we can loose 3-5 natural lashes, but often they fall out unnoticed unless they fall into your eye, but when eyelash extensions are applied we are more aware of when they shed as we know the extensions are there plus they are longer, darker and thicker. If you sleep on your stomach with your face squashed into the pillow or you favour sleeping on one side you may notice the lashes may not last as well as the other side.

What are in-fills, why do I need them and how often do I need them?
In-fills are when the natural eyelash has fallen out (due to the eyelash cycle) and there has been an extension lash applied to it. You will require in-fills every 2-3 weeks if you would like to achieve a consistently full fresh set of lashes. Please refer to Eyelash Pricing. For in-fill bookings allow approximately 1 hour.

Can I open my eyes during the procedure?
Yes, but please advise staff before you open your eyes as two sharp tweezers are used when applying the lashes.

Do the synthetic eyelashes come in different lengths and thicknesses?
Yes, we carry a variety of lashes. During the application a mixture of lengths and thicknesses are used - shorter lashes being used on the inner eye area and gradually increasing in length towards the middle and outer corners. If you have a specific request or look, please speak to Staff will be happy to discuss this with you.

Are the eyelash extensions glued to my skin?
No, it is adhered approximately 1mm from the eyelid.

Is the eyelash glue and glue remover safe?
Yes, in the right hands and having your extensions applied by some one who has been correctly trained it is safe. Because we specialise just in eyelash extensions we take great care to ensure that the adhesive and adhesive remover does not come in contact with the skin or eyes. The glue used at the Lava Lounge is a high quality fast drying glue which does not give a clumped look. As the glue is being used around the delicate eye area it is important to only have eyelash extensions applied by a trained and qualified eyelash extensionist.

Are eyelash extensions suitable for everyone?
Anyone of any age can have eyelash extensions applied as long as there is a natural lash to glue the extension onto. Ladies who have undergone chemotherapy and their lashes are starting to grow back also love eyelash extensions. Celebrities such as Britany Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Hillary Duff, Paris Hilton, Tyra Banks, Eva Longoria and Victoria Beckham all wear eyelash extensions. Because the eyelash extensions are so natural anyone could be wearing them and you wouldn't know. They are also suitable for people who wear contact lenses and glasses.
