A patch test places 5 to 10 extensions on the outer corner of one eye, kept on for 24 to 48 hours. Any redness, itching, or swelling means the adhesive is not safe to use. About 1 to 3% of clients react to standard cyanoacrylate glue, and a hypoallergenic version costs about 20% more.
A full set normally lasts 4 to 6 weeks, but that is the natural lash growth cycle, not the lifespan of each extension. Most clients lose 2 to 5 extensions per day per eye. A refill every 2 to 3 weeks keeps the set looking full, because grown-out lashes carry the extension out as they shed.
Eyelash extensions are synthetic, silk, or mink fibers glued one by one onto each natural lash. A full set usually has 80 to 120 extensions per eye, while a partial set has 40 to 80. Each extension is applied with a small amount of cyanoacrylate-based adhesive, about 1 mm from the eyelid skin.
Keep lashes dry for 12 to 24 hours after application. Avoid steam, saunas, and workouts that cause heavy sweating. Do not rub the eyes or sleep face-down for the first 2 nights. After that, gentle cleansing with an oil-free lash shampoo once a day keeps the adhesive bond strong.
A full classic set takes 90 to 120 minutes, volume takes 120 to 180 minutes, and a refill takes 45 to 75 minutes. You lie down with closed eyes while the technician isolates each natural lash with tweezers, dips the extension in glue and places it. Under-eye gel pads or tape hold the lower lashes down throughout.
Curl types are labeled B, C, D, and L. B is a soft lift, C is a medium curve, D is a dramatic curve, and L is straight at the base with a sharp upward tip. Lengths go from 8 mm to 14 mm, and thicknesses range from 0.05 mm to 0.20 mm. Thinner diameters look softer but hold less weight.
Brush lashes twice a day with a clean spoolie to prevent twisting. Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction. Avoid oil-based eye makeup, mascaras with fibers, and mechanical eyelash curlers. With daily care, retention stays above 80% at the 2-week mark.
Ask what glue brand and cyanoacrylate percentage the technician uses, how many hours the fumes need to cure, and whether the salon is ventilated. Ask to see a patch-test photo from the last 30 days and a portfolio of real clients, not stock images, so you can judge isolation work and symmetry.
Classic style attaches one extension to one natural lash. Volume applies 2 to 6 ultra-fine extensions in a fan shape per lash. Hybrid mixes both, usually about 50/50. Volume fans use 0.03 mm to 0.07 mm fibers, and full sets take 90 to 150 minutes depending on the chosen style.
Professional removal takes 10 to 15 minutes using a cream-based solvent placed on the lashes for 3 to 5 minutes. The extensions slide off without pulling. Never rip extensions off, because this can remove up to 5 natural lashes per eye. Home removal kits work but need 10 extra minutes and careful rinsing.
