Lash & Brow Styling Gold Coast

 A Lash Lift is a cosmetic treatment that lifts your natural lashes to create beautifully curled lashes without having to use an eyelash curler before mascara. It is a revolutionised procedure from the old, inadequate perming techniques, we use silicone pads instead of perm rods. It is a great alternative to eyelash extensions, as it requires very little maintenance.

Eyelash extensions require a single or multiple synthetic lashes to bond to each individual natural lash to create more length and fullness and require maintenance every 2-3 weeks.  Whereas a lash lift is just curling your own natural lashes, make longer and fuller with less maintenance 

 Suitable for client,

• Your natural lashes should have adequate length. 
• Straight and/or downward pointing lashes
• Low maintenance compared to eyelash extensions as time poor for regular upkeep
• Love to still wear mascara 

 Eyelash Lift & Tint MAY NOT be suitable for clients that:

• Have very little natural eyelashes or have nothing. The gaps between your lashes will be more noticeable
• Have pre-existing eye(lid) conditions such as chronic dry eye, blepharitis, conjunctivitis and ocular rosacea
• Lasik surgery (wait a minimum of 6 months from your procedure)
• Have Trichotillomania (compulsive pulling or twisting hair, eyebrows and eyelashes)
• Have very sensitive eyes or possible allergies to adhesive (recommended to book an appointment for a patch test)
• Who are rough with their lashes
• Undergoing chemo treatments or have had chemo treatments within the past year (recommend to consult with your physician)
• Are sensitive or have allergies to dyes (recommended to book an appointment for a patch test)
• Had blepharoplasty surgery (must wait a minimum of 1 year after your surgery)

 No. Properly trained and skilled professionals ensure proper lash lift procedures are followed. 

 About 60 - 80 minutes depends on how long and coarse the eyelashes are and if your lashes will be tinted. 

 A lash lift and tint can last anywhere between 6 to 8 weeks. Results may vary from client to client depending their lash growth cycle. There are some situations that may cause the lift to drop/weaken prematurely such as swimming, use off harsh products or heat. If you find that your lift does not last the full 2 months, you can repeat the treatment after a minimum of 6 weeks of having the initial treatment, but not before. 

A lash lift will begin to naturally drop after about 2 months and your lashes will be back to their natural look. The lashes should drop evenly and will not look out of place. You can repeat the treatment after a minimum of 6 weeks if you feel you need to, or you can wait until they are back to their natural state. 

 Gently, using mild products. Always wait 24 hours to do this, straight after the procedure. 

• Do not consume any caffeinated beverages before your appointment. Caffeine can cause your eyes to flutter during an appointment. 
• Please makeup sure to arrive without contacts, concealer, eye makeup (mascara, eyeliner, eyeshadow etc.) on the day of your appointment. avoid curling your natural lashes with a lash curler for 24 hours prior to your appointment. 
• Fake lash removal will result in time being taken from lashing and a removal fee of $25 will be added to the service. 

 DO

• USE A LASH SERUM. It's recommended to use a lash serum to help your lashes grow longer and strong. This will help give you amazing looking lashes
• MOISTURIZE your lashes. It's recommended to use an oil that is safe to use around the eye area and lashes to help moisturize your lashes

DON'T

• DO NOT WET your lashes for 24 hours after the appointment
• DO NOT SLEEP with your face laid on the pillow. You must sleep on your back for 24 hours. Your lashes are prone to kinks within 24 hours after the procedure.
• DO NOT PULL your lashes. This can cause your natural lashes to fall out prematurely and cause both breakage and permanent damage to the hair follicle

Eyebrow lamination is the latest beauty secret that will thicken and enhance your natural brows. Similar to the idea of a lash lift, brow lamination involves the application of a setting lotion that gives the brow hair “brushed up” and lifted look. Whether you have thin, thick, or over plucked eyebrows, brow laminating is the perfect solution to give you the everyday look you want, without effort. 

  Prior to your brow lamination appointment, we recommend the following:

• Avoid using exfoliants, retinoids, or AHAs on your face for one to two weeks before your brow lamination
• Avoid tweezing at least one week prior to your appointment (if you’re interested, we do offer the option to add on a brow wax to your lamination appointment) 
• Please come to your appointment without any makeup on your face 

• Don’t get your eyebrows wet (avoid the shower & bath)
• Don’t go into a sauna
• Don’t use oil based products
• Don’t apply heavy creams, makeup, or makeup remover to your brows
• Don’t sleep directly on your brows (we know, easier said than done for our stomach sleepers)

Similar to a lash lift, keeping your brows dry in the 24 hours following your lamination treatment is very important. During the lamination process, we use an assortment of creams as well as a permanent gel to relax and shape your brows. If you get your eyebrows wet too soon after we finish applying these products, your brows do not have a chance to set with their new shape. 

 A brow lamination will last about 6 weeks (again, depending on aftercare). Be sure to follow the aftercare instructions above in the first 24 hours following your treatment for longevity. In the 48 hours following your treatment, you can apply a hydrating balm or a castor oil to your brows daily. We also recommend brushing your brows in an upright/styled position anytime following a shower (or after getting your brows wet) to help keep their new shape.
