Frequently Asked Questions For lash extensions

Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are semi-permanent eyelash extensions comprised of individual eyelashes that are curved to replicate a natural eyelash. Our lashes are thicker at the base and taper to a fine point. They are applied on to individual eyelashes, one extension at a time, for a natural, elegant look to lengthen and add fullness to the existing lashes. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are for professional application only. Self-application and application by untrained individuals is strongly discouraged.

With proper application, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions look and feel completely real. Each application is customized to suit the individual. We offer three thicknesses of lashes and four different curls with lengths ranging from 5mm to 17mm in a variety of colors for highlighting effects. Varying individual synthetic lash lengths are chosen to carefully replicate the shape and frame of a natural lash line. The thickness of the Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions applied is determined by the health and thickness of your natural lashes as well as personal preference. The overall effect is added curl, thickness and length, opening up the eye for added definition.

Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are designed to be indistinguishable in size and weight to human lashes. They are flexible yet crimp-resistant, and they move with your natural lashes. As long as you keep up with the touch-up applications, it is almost impossible to tell that you are wearing the extensions.

Because an Xtreme Lash® is an exact replica of an eyelash, it weighs about as much as a natural lash: practically nothing. You will not notice the addition of the extensions to your lashes and they will not cause your natural lashes to fall out ahead of their natural cycle as other enhancement methods can. Please feel free to review our client testimonials and before/after pictures for additional information on the look and feel of Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions.

Most women choose Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions to lengthen their natural lashes while others want their lashes to look fuller. A number of women with naturally light colored lashes choose Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions to darken their existing lashes. Still others love the different, fun looks they can achieve with highlighting and layering.

Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions can create a younger appearance on many clients. Several consumers who were contemplating having work done on their faces have informed us that they no longer feel the need as a result of wearing Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions create the appearance of a brighter, more open and rested eye, thereby creating a more youthful and rejuvenated look.

Above all, the main advantage of Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions is how much time you can save during your beauty regimen. Xtreme Lashes®Eyelash Extensions allow you to spend less time with makeup; mascara is certainly no longer necessary. Because our lashes are bigger at the base, they create the same effect as eyeliner so that step can be avoided as well. Overall, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions will give you the appearance of having put significant effort into your eye makeup when, in reality, you spent no time at all. No application of eye makeup and no need for removal at the end of the day. The added benefit is that they look beautiful morning and night, all day, every day. Say goodbye to the application of mascara, stained tears and mascara raccoon masks around the eyes. With Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions you can look and feel gorgeous from the moment you wake up until the moment you fall asleep with little to no effort.

Because Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are applied to existing natural lashes you must have some natural lashes to receive the procedure. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions should not, and in many cases cannot, be applied to clients who have alopecia, are undergoing chemotherapy or those who suffer from Trichotillomania, unless and until the individual has received effective treatment and normal lash growth has resumed.

The look can be maintained indefinitely with refills. When properly applied, an Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extension will remain in place until the natural lash on which it rests falls out. This can be as long as two months or more.

Natural eyelashes grow in and fall out in cycles (every 60 to 90 days). When a natural lash matures and falls out, a new lash has already been growing and quickly replaces it without us noticing the turnover. This process is constant and at any given moment our many natural lashes are at different stages of maturity. Some are just growing in, while others are ready to shed. People typically shed between 1 and 5 natural lashes each day, depending on their individual growth cycles. On shorter natural lashes, this growing and shedding cycle is virtually unnoticeable.

When eyelashes are extended with Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions, it will be more noticeable when these lashes shed because they are longer and darker than natural lashes. Please keep in mind this is a perfectly normal occurrence, with or without extensions. Lash Stylists will apply Xtreme Lashes®Eyelash Extensions primarily to those lashes that are in the middle of their maturation cycle to maximum the amount of time they will last, without jeopardizing the health of ‘baby' lashes. The Xtreme Lash® will fall out with the natural lash it is attached to when it reaches the end of its growth cycle. A few Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions may shed within the first week because the attached natural lashes are at the end of their growth cycle. Most will remain in place for approximately two months.

With proper care and maintenance, touch-ups are typically only needed once every 2 to 4 weeks to replace the lashes that have shed. Your Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Stylist will add extensions to the newest mature natural lashes to maintain a full, lush appearance.

Nano Brows represents the cutting-edge innovation within the realm of permanent cosmetics. Distinguished by its minimally invasive nature in contrast to traditional microblading, this method involves the precise implantation of pigment through a singular fine-point needle and digital machine. By strategically placing the pigment in a series of interconnected dots, Nano Brows artfully replicate the appearance of natural hair strokes.

Microblading utilizes a manual hand tool and blade to implant pigment, while Nano Brows utilizes a digital pen with  a single needle for precision & intricate detailed work. Despite both techniques resulting in 3D realistic hair stroke effect, they diverge in their approaches to pigment application. In microblading, thin hairlike channels are cut into the skin, with pigment introduced into these incisions. While Nano Brows achieve their lifelike strokes through the gentle etching of tiny pigment dots into the skin using a digital pen and singular needle. This method is known to minimize skin trauma and exhibit greater longevity, particularly on oily skin, as opposed to the traditional microblading method.

The pigment used in this procedure is semi-permanent, however, because the method of pigment implantation is more gentle  than microblading, it offers less pigment rejection in the healing process, therefore resulting in better retention for longer lasting results. Typically, Nano Brows last anywhere from 12-18 months. Touch-up is required after 6-8 months. 

Your first appointment will take about 2.5 hours, as plenty of time will be taken to assure that we have created the shape you desire before the procedure is performed & all angles are perfected.

Nano Brows are designed to minimize discomfort as much as possible by using topical anesthetics. As everyone's pain tolerance and sensitivity levels vary, it's understandable that individuals may have different experiences with discomfort during the procedure. Some might find it quite comfortable, while others might feel it more intensely. There are measures in place to help manage any discomfort, and it's important for those considering the procedure to communicate their comfort levels with their technician so they can adjust as needed.

There might be some temporary pinkness/tenderness around the brow area, the color will darken before gradually fading to a more natural shade over the next week or two. We advice against scheduling the procedure right before activities like beach vacations or camping trips, as exposure to sun, water, and outdoor elements could potentially interfere with the healing process and final results.

Absolutely, this is a great option for those who suffer from Alopecia, Trichotillomania, or have been through Chemotherapy. Nano Brows can even correct past wax catastrophe, over tweezing, or the normal hair thinning that occurs post menopause or hormone changes.
