How Long Do Eyelash Extensions Last and How to Remove Eyelash Extensions
Getting wedding eyelash extensions done is exciting. Your new lashes will be longer, thicker, fuller, and dramatic, requiring less or no eye makeup to create a striking look. How long do eyelash extensions last? The answer depends on several factors, including the care you take care of them.
Longevity of Semi-Permanent Applications
There are two options for enhancing your lashes- semi-permanent and permanent eyelash extensions. The most commonly applied extensions are semi-permanent. There are several options with semi-permanent lashes, from synthetic to mink extensions. All are applied similarly with surgical glue, to the existing lashes. The semi-permanent lashes will grow out with the natural lashes and shed as they fall out. The eyelash extension glue is incredibly strong and designed to resist sweat, water, and wear. Your aesthetician can show you how to remove eyelash extensions, or you may wish to simply have it professionally done following your big day.
What about Permanent Extensions?
Permanent extensions are completely different from semi-permanent, as they are implanted in a surgical procedure. They are normally offered to patients who have suffered hair loss related to some disease or condition like chemotherapy or alopecia. Permanent eyelash extensions are durable, lasting a lifetime, and require almost no special care, but they are also expensive. Semi-permanent extensions are more appropriate for most people.
Removing Your Extensions
The best method of eyelash extension removal is to have your aesthetician handle the removal for you. It takes just a few minutes, and there’s no danger of damage to your natural lashes. Your technician will use a gentle, specialized chemical to dissolve the eyelash extensions glue and remove the extensions, leaving your natural lashes intact and healthy.
