Lash lifting
A lash lift is a procedure where natural lashes are curled and lifted to enhance their appearance without the need for makeup. The lashes are also tinted, usually in black or brown.
The goal is to accentuate the natural beauty of your lashes without the use of lash extensions. It emphasizes the existing length and volume of your own lashes.
It's important to have the procedure performed by a trained professional to ensure safety and optimal results.
Important for your appointment
Do you wear contact lenses? Be sure to bring contact lens solution to your appointment so you can take them out during the treatment.
Come to your appointment without eye makeup if possible.

What happens during a treatment?
After an intake regarding allergies and preferences for your lash lift, the treatment itself takes about 50 minutes. You will be lying on your back with your eyes closed throughout this time.
Silicone pads are placed on your eyelids, and your lashes are lifted onto them. Several products are then applied to create the "permanent," or the curl. The tinting of the lashes is done as the second-to-last step.

The tinting and curling
Both the degree of the curl and the tint of your lashes are personally assessed and discussed with you.
For instance, if you're going on vacation, it's more enjoyable to set a slightly more pronounced curl so that you may not necessarily need mascara. If you have an upcoming event where you plan to apply false lashes, we also adjust the curl to complement that.
