What are Novalash extensions?
Eyelash extensions are synthetic lashes that are applied to natural lashes using medical grade, award-winning adhesive. The service is painless and lashes are weightless, thick, long and dark. We can customize size and length to each individual client's desired look, A full set takes about 1.5-3 hours to complete. Fills are every 2-3 weeks and take anywhere from 45 min- 90 min to complete, depending on type of extensions, and amount of natural lashes.
Come experience the NovaLash difference! Voted #1 more than any other lash line in the world, and is sold exclusively to NovaLash certified stylists. NovaLash lasts effectively 2x's longer than the leading competitor and is INSTANTLY water proof and oil proof (no more waiting 24 hours to get them wet or break a sweat!). The award winning Platinum Bond adhesive is flexible and dries a deep, glossy black color.
do extensions ruin your natural lashes?
Absolutely not! That is our industry's biggest myth, but it does depend on where you go. If you come see a professionally trained and certified lash stylist that uses correct application techniques and high quality products, then your lash experience will be a happy one. There are however, certain people that are just not good candidates for lash extensions. People who are extreme allergy sufferers or have allergies to adhesives, bandaids or medical tape, have very watery or sensitive eyes, are hormonally sensitive due to pregnancy or menopause, those with skin conditions in the treatments area, or anyone who is just generally rough on their natural lashes (NovaLash is super strong, but not invincible).
can i still wear mascara or makeup?
Yes and no... although we prefer you don't wear mascara, if you must, you can wear it with CLASSIC lashes only. It will close volume fans and change the look completely. It also needs to be NovaLash brand mascara that is friendly to our adhesive. Most others will cause your lash extensions to come off prematurely. The same is true even if you ONLY wear mascara on your lower lashes. Every time you blink, the mascara transfers to the top lashes.
Makeup is “ok” too, and unlike most other lash brands, you don't have to avoid products that have oils in the ingredients. You should however avoid any products that contain glycols. We recommend cream makeups and shadows, as opposed to powders that tend to leave residue in the lashes. As with all VOLUME lash extensions, you should avoid oils, makeup, sweat, etc. to avoid closing the fans.
