Let's talk about shedding cycles and how this play into extensions. 

Each individual hair follicle take about 4-8 weeks to be replaced after shedding. 

Each lash in it has its own phase of growth, which means, we can't predict where hair will shed. 

Typically, in a full set, about 80-200 lashes are being applied per eye but as always it will depend on how many natural lashes you have at the time of application. 

Each day, you may see on average 2-5 lashes falling out which is completely normal. Some days you may have 10 fall out in one area. 

Sometimes you're able to make it 4 weeks from your lash fill & other times just 2.

It's different for everyone and you'll see that if you're more active, are taking medication or are really stressed out, among other factors, that your lashes with grow and shed differently.

​

After four weeks or if you have don't have much left, you'll be charged the full set price or you may need to be rescheduled if there isn't enough time.

​

Lash Lifting After Care - 

. No heat, water, oil based products for 24 hours MINIMUM. 

. Lashes will still be soft and as such, can still be misshaped by sleeping and high heat. They can drop or lift prematurely if you sleep on your face or side or are exposed to heat.

. Avoid oil based products which can result in premature dropping.

Your natural lashes will shed as normal and your natural lashes will grow in as they did before the service. Lift results will last up to 6-8 weeks. You'll want to come in every 6 weeks to maintain results.

Before Your Wax - 

So you’ve booked a wax. Here’s a couple of tips to lessen the pain and increase the longevity of the hair free feeling.

– If you’re really worried about the pain, and haven’t had waxing before then take 1 or 2 pain pills about 30-40 minutes before your appointment. This can help reduce the surface discomfort.

– Make sure your hair is long enough to remove completely from the roots – it should be at least 0.5 centimetres. If you’ve shaved the area within the last few weeks it might take a couple of waxes to get your hair into a cycle of growth that allows the most effective wax finish.

 

After Your Wax - 

You’ve just invested time, money and a little discomfort in order to be hairfree – so it makes sense to look after it. We don’t just make this stuff up for the sake of it! So, read on…

Immediately after your wax ... 

It’s normal immediately after your wax for a little bit of redness and a prickly heat type rash to appear. This should disappear after a few hours.

 Waxing removes the hair at the root, it’s important that you keep the area clean and bacteria free.

– No sunbathing for at least 12 hours (have your waxing done at least the day before you go away)

– No swimming in a chlorinated pool for 24 hours

– No spa baths or saunas

– Avoid applying any topical lotions for at least 12 hours (fragrances and other lubricants can cause a burning sensation)

– Also avoid touching the waxed area to ensure it remains bacteria free

– Use a tea tree oil based product to apply to the area for its antibacterial qualities.

3-10 days after waxing -

As you skin closes over the follicles, the next consideration is to ensure you prevent ingrown hairs. This is when new soft hair can get trapped under the skin. A few simple measures can easily avoid this situation.

Here’s where the “do’s” come in:

– Use a soft brush or exfoliating glove to gently buff the area every 2-3 days – this is particularly important after about day 3 through to about the 10 day mark. It doesn’t need to be hard scrubbing,  just a gentle exfoliation.

How long will your wax last?

If you’re a first-time or occasional waxer you will likely notice some new hair growth within 2-3 weeks due to the naturally staggered hair growth cycle. This part of regrowth will be sparse, about one-third of the hair normally present. Soon after the remaining hair will begin growing in.

Regular waxing will leave the area hair free for 3 – 6 weeks. Over time the density of hair in the waxed area may start to decrease as well.
