The application typically takes 1.75 to 2.5+ hours, depending on the lash look you’re going for. During the process, you’ll need to lie still with your eyes closed. Most clients find it very relaxing and often drift off to sleep, but if staying still or lying down for extended periods is difficult for you, or if you have neck or back issues, this service may not be ideal.

To ensure the best experience, please come to your appointment distraction-free—this means turning off your phone and coming alone. For safety and comfort, children and pets are not allowed in the studio during your session.

When applied by a seasoned professional and cared for properly, eyelash extensions should not damage your natural lashes. Proper after-care is essential to keep both your extensions and natural lashes healthy.

Most clients find they don’t need mascara with eyelash extensions, and I generally don’t recommend using it. The purpose of lash extensions is to give you a beautiful, effortless look 24/7—saving you time and eliminating the need for mascara. Using mascara on your extensions can lead to product buildup, which can cause irritation, bacteria growth, and make your extensions more prone to damage. Plus, the rubbing and effort required to remove mascara can shorten the lifespan of your lash extensions, as it leads to more tugging and premature shedding. It’s best to keep your extensions clean and free from extra product to ensure they stay looking fresh and healthy for as long as possible.

To ensure your lashes last as long as possible and stay healthy, avoid rubbing your eyes, using lash curlers, or removing makeup roughly. Gently cleanse your lashes with an approved lash extension cleanser to remove makeup, dirt, oils, and bacteria. I’ll share my top after-care tips to guide you in maintaining your lashes and natural lash health. Daily cleansing with a lash extension-safe product is crucial to keeping your lashes looking fresh and your lash line healthy.

When considering lash extensions, it's important to look beyond the price. Are the technicians insured, certified, and properly trained? While lash supplies are readily available online, the application process requires expertise. The bonding glue used is incredibly strong, much like super glue, and improper use can lead to injury, discomfort, infections, or irritations.

Also, consider the appointment length. A full set should take around 2 hours, with touch-ups generally taking 1 hour. Shorter appointment times may compromise the quality, longevity, and comfort of your lashes. Quality lashes require time, skill, and the right materials for a safe and beautiful result.

Yes! I only use individual lash extensions for Classic lashes, meaning each extension is applied to one of your natural lashes. I don’t use lash flares, pre-made fans, or clusters, as these are not ideal for long-term lash health. While these types of extensions may seem quicker to apply, they can cause significant damage to your natural lashes, leading to lasting damage that may not fully recover.

Yes! I’m fully trained in the hand-fanned Russian Volume technique, also known as 3D or Volume lashes, by two of Australia's top trainers. This technique focuses on adding volume rather than length by applying 2-4 extensions to each natural lash.

Russian Volume lashes are perfect for a bold, full look or for those with sparse lashes. I customize the amount of volume to suit your needs, using only fine extensions (0.05mm or 0.07mm diameter) to create a soft, fluffy effect.

I exclusively use handmade fans that are fanned during your appointment to ensure the highest quality—no pre-made fans are ever used in my sets.

As long as you have a healthy amount of lashes and they’re not damaged (e.g. from lash lifts, hormonal changes, or excessive pulling), lash extensions are usually a great option for you.

If you struggle with alopecia or have a habit of picking/pulling your lashes, extensions may not be suitable.

To strengthen and grow your natural lashes, I recommend using my lash serum alongside your extensions. For those with sparse lashes, the serum can help boost growth and improve lash health. Learn more about my lash serum here.

I don’t offer refills or touch-ups on lashes applied by other salons. Each lash technician has their own technique and products, so it’s best to start fresh with a new set when switching stylists.

To ensure the highest quality, I’ll need to remove your previous extensions and apply a new set. This guarantees the best results and longevity for your lashes.

Shedding 2-5 lashes per day is completely normal, as lashes naturally fall out just like the hair on our heads. This is why regular maintenance is important to keep your extensions looking full.

Uneven shedding between eyes can sometimes happen, but it’s often due to how your lashes shed naturally. That said, better home care can help minimize it. Keep in mind, some people's lashes shed faster than others due to individual growth cycles.

Excessive shedding may be caused by factors such as:

• Pressure from side sleeping

• Hormonal changes

• Stress or illness

• Seasonal shedding

• Medications

• Diet changes

• Oily skin

• Improper aftercare (not washing lashes, rubbing, picking, using heavy makeup, or certain skincare products)

• Lifestyle activities like swimming or water sports

Proper care and maintenance can help reduce excessive shedding and keep your lashes looking great longer.

I’m here to grant lash wishes, and I’d absolutely love to give you the lashes you’ve been dreaming of! If your natural lashes can handle it, and you’re ready to relax for the time it takes to create a beautiful set of lashes, we can definitely work towards that look.

However, a few factors will determine what’s achievable:

1. Your Natural Lashes: There’s a safe amount of weight your natural lashes can handle, and that’s something we’ll need to consider together. While I’d love to give you that strip lash or cat-eye effect, we have to work within the limits of your natural lashes’ strength. I’ve been doing this long enough to know what’s reasonable and safe for each client.

2. Aftercare: Lash health is a team effort. What I do in your appointment needs to be supported by you at home with proper aftercare. Consistency is key—washing your lashes daily and avoiding damaging habits will allow me to give you the best possible result.

3. Your Budget: Did you know you have around 75-150 natural lashes per eye? The more complex the look, the more time and skill it takes to create, so your budget will influence the final result. More volume, more time, more cost.

You’ll look gorgeous no matter what, but if you have a specific look in mind, please get in touch so I can help you choose the best lash service for your goals and your budget.

While I may not be the most budget-friendly option, I focus on delivering an exceptional experience and creating long-lasting, stunning looks that reflect your unique style. My pricing reflects the time, skill, and expertise I bring to each client, ensuring you get top-tier service and results.

From our initial consultation to the final set, my goal is to exceed your expectations and create a flawless, natural-looking lash enhancement that enhances your beauty.
