Although our formulas are safe to use on the hairs, you need to ensure you keep your hair healthy and hydrated post treatment to ensure they do not become brittle and damaged. It is the same as having a treatment done at the hairdressers, you must then use aftercare products to look after your hair post treatment. Following the correct home aftercare after your brow lamination treatment is essential for optimum hair health and this will prolong the longevity of your treatment.
How Do You Care For Your Lashes After a Lash Lift Treatment?
The first 24hrs after your treatment are critical and you MUST follow the steps below to ensure your lift does not drop and to ensure longevity of the treatment. At this early stage, your lashes are still delicate, and the lift is working its magic which means you need to be as careful as possible.
Do not get your lashes wet within the first 24hrs. This includes excessive moisture & steam from showers, baths, saunas and especially no swimming!
Avoid rubbing or excessive touching of the lashes to ensure they stay in the correct direction
Do not apply makeup (this includes mascara) to the lash area or receive any other eye treatment within the first 24hrs.
Avoid sleeping on your front within the first 24-48hrs
After the first 24hrs, you can resume your normal daily life with your fabulous lashes! However, we recommend you brush your lashes into place using the spoolie provided. We also recommend using a lash conditioner between appointments that will aid in nourishing, strengthening & protecting your lashes.
A lash lift lasts about 6-8 weeks & tints last about 2-3 weeks. We recommend you have your lashes tinted after a few weeks, this will give you a refreshed look that will make your lashes pop again.
If any redness or irritation occurs, wash the area with cool water and use damp cotton wool as a compress to help soothe it. If symptoms persist seek medical attention.
