LASH EXTENSION PREP AND AFTERCARE

With the help of one of our lash extensions specialists we’ve put together a quick list of prep and aftercare tips to help your lashes last longer and look fresh until your next fill!

PREPARE FOR YOUR LASH EXTENSIONS

Longer lasting lashes begin with the right lash extension prep.

1. Make sure you go to your appointment make-up free, especially no mascara
2. Wear comfy clothes and take a pair of headphones–lash extensions appointments can take up to a couple of hours so let it be a time to relax!
3. Be sure to tell your specialist about any specific skin sensitivities or allergies

AFTERCARE FOR YOUR LASH EXTENSIONS

How to keep those lashes beautiful between visits.

1. Avoid any makeup or makeup removers that are oil-based
2. Brush through your lashes with a soft lash brush every day and whenever they get tangled
3. Wash your lashes daily with lash shampoo to prevent buildup–this keeps the lashes clean and makes them last longer (FYI, Ottalaus salon carries its very own lash extension care kit that includes shampoo, a brush, lash treatment–for longer lasting lashes–and a portable fan)
4. Avoid picking or rubbing your lashes
5. Invest in a satin or silk pillowcase that won’t catch on your lashes (these are great for your hair too)
6. Many people are under the impression that you can’t get your lashes wet for 24 hours after application, which isn’t true, yay! The humidity from the shower or washing your face can actually help the glue adhere better. However, avoiding excessive heat like from a sauna or hot tub for the first 24 hours is recommended
7. Prebook your fills every 1-3 weeks (as recommended by your specialist) to avoid the risk of not getting in when you need to!
