There are unfortunately many myths about lash extensions and one of them is that it damages your own lashes. That is absolutely not the case.

However, you also have to do your part in taking care of your lash extensions by not nit picking and touching them all the time, not using waterproof mascara and not rubbing them at any time. It is however important to decide if lash extensions are the right option for you. If you are someone that touches your face and lashes a lot, it might not be the best fit for you. You should also know that you will have to lay still for two hours when your lashes get applied, so just take that into consideration.

Eyelash extensions are applied to your natural lashes by using a very strong adhesive that is safe to use. Lash extensions only takes about 2 hours to apply depending on how skilled the lash artist is, and the lashes will last for up to 2-3 weeks. After that period of time you just need to go for a fill which only takes about 30 minutes. So it is actually very easy to maintain your lash extensions.

Volume lashes will totally transform your face and make you stand out.
