Are you keeping up with trends at the moment? Have you noticed that one of the most loved beauty treatments has been lash extensions in the last couple of months? A lot of beauty influencers and models have been rocking wispy and luscious lashes! These bad boys are great for women who wish to speed up their makeup routine. Are you one of those women who prefer quick, and easy looks early in the morning? If so, you may enjoy lash extensions! Here are the top 6 interesting facts that you’d wish you knew sooner about lash extensions!
Top 6 Facts About Lash Extensions That Will Amaze You
1. They are literally for everyone
Every woman can enjoy a pair of wispy and stunning lashes. This applies to every race, age, hair color, as well as skin type. If you are a fan of fluffy lashes, and the volume that you can achieve overnight, you can book your appointment!
Every esthetician can do this service on women who are (at least) 15 years old. There are no rules, and that is what is beautiful regarding this treatment! It is customizable per your preference, eye shape, as well as your headed event!
2. Their application is quick and easy
If you can spare around 60 minutes at a salon, you should get lash extensions! Once glued down, they can stay on for three weeks! Book your appointment 2-3 days beforehand. Once you arrive at a salon, make sure that you arrive bare-faced. You will end up with the prettiest lashes (and the most durable ones) if you come with no makeup.
Your lash esthetician will apply your lashes individually and one by one on top of your natural lashes. They will blend your natural lashes with their special glue. Make sure that your eyes are closed during the entire time, you don’t want to risk experiencing an allergic reaction.
3. You will enjoy them for any event
Not too sure what look to do for your prom, wedding, or your birthday? Maybe you are off to an extravagant holiday, a tropical getaway, or you’re off to a job interview?
Either way, it is, you can get lash extensions! They are wearable for any event, plus you can enjoy them for several weeks since they are so durable. Tell your lash esthetician what your preferred look is, and where you’re headed. They will then customize the look per your preference. Lash extensions can be super long, short, wispy, and curly – the choice is entirely up to you!
4. They are inexpensive
Are you on a budget? Well, lash extensions are not too expensive to get. Usually, your lash esthetician will bill you around $50 for the initial fill. However, a refill is half the price (in most beauty salons)! Although this is not as affordable, think of it like this:
- A) You do not have to apply mascaras or repurchase them over, and over again. Lash extensions are voluminous, curly, and lifted on their own. You will save so much money right here.
- B) You don’t have to use a lash curler or glue-on lashes. You will also save money by not purchasing lash glue.
In the end, this beauty treatment will come off as an affordable & long-lasting solution!
5. Perfect for you if you like low-maintenance beauty treatments
Are you a low-maintenance person? You don’t like to invest a lot of time or effort in your everyday looks? This is completely fine since you will end up with effortless lashes & a well-put look the minute you wake up!
In fact, lash extensions only need to be brushed up with a spoolie in the morning. Make sure you wash your face with lukewarm water, and pat dry your skin. These two tips are essential for the longevity of your lash extensions. Just follow them and you will end up with feminine (and natural-looking) lashes every day!
6. Weatherproof
Aside from being weatherproof, lash extensions are also waterproof, and heat-resistant. They are super durable and perfect for extreme situations! In fact, you can freely swim while having them on, work out, tan, as well as do any sporty activity!
They are glued down with high-quality glue + they are super practical for weddings or any emotional/romantic events. Why? Well, they won’t unglue or smudge, at all! Which you can’t say about your trustworthy mascaras or glue-on lashes. If you need something that won’t fail you and that looks amazing in pictures – go for lash extensions, always!

Oh gosh, having an eye lash extension sounds really exciting and I know someone who would love to try this service.
I have looked into getting false lashes but I just cant bring myself to do it- I am afraid for someone to be that close to my eyeballs!
My friend just got lash extensions and they look amazing, but there’s a lot of upkeep too. I’m not sure I could handle that.

Shucks. I have tried this before but only lasted for less than a week. I get itchy and it really gets to me that I can’t properly wash my face the way I want it.
