FAQs - Lash extensions

WHAT ARE EYELASH EXTENSIONS?

The Lash Extensions used at JC Aesthetics are made from synthetic Silk (vegan friendly) and are applied individually to the natural lash, with a medical grade adhesive. Lash extensions depending on the desired look can come in 3D to 10D per extension applied to the natural lash.

HOW LONG DO THEY USUALLY LAST?

A Fullset can last anywhere between 4- 6 weeks depending on your lash cycle. However, it is recommended to upkeep your lash extensions, every 2-3 weeks, to keep them look luscious and full.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO APPLY THEM?

Depending on the artist selected and type of set requested - our junior artist is able to perform a natural volume set in 1.5 hours, full volume set in 2 hours and a mega volume/ extreme volume in 2 - 2.5 hours.

CAN I WEAR MAKEUP WITH MY LASHES?

YES! Although we don’t recommend wearing any mascara that isn't extension safe or oil based products, as it will shorten the life of your lash extensions.
