Guide To Getting Eyelash Extensions In Long Island

By Deanne Shepard


Most women want their eyelashes to appear longer, thicker, and fuller, as this is considered to be the ideal. Today one of the most popular ways to achieve this look is to have eyelash extensions. This procedure involves adhering hairlike fibers to the natural lashes with a special glue, the results are quite dramatic and it can last for weeks. When looking for eyelash extensions in Long Island, those who are new to this process will find the following information helpful.

This technique offers considerable advantages over traditional methods of making the lashes appear thicker and longer. Mascara can run and look clumpy, and false eyelashes can fall off easily, whereas extensions only need to be applied once, are easy to maintain, and give the longest-lasting effect. Some are made from natural fibers, but most are synthetic. The type of adhesive can vary too, but the best quality contains no formaldehyde and is USP grade.

These should not be applied by anyone other than a "Certified Eyelash Extension Specialist", such individuals have attended an accepted training program and successfully passed the course, earning them a certification in this discipline. Therefore it is essential to verify the credentials of the technician who will perform it.

There are two types, temporary and semi-permanent. The former are intended for a single day's use, usually for a special event like a wedding or graduation. They may be made from human hair or a synthetic fiber which closely resembles human hair called "keraspecific fiber" and a different type of adhesive is used. Temporary extensions are not waterproof and can't be worn while sleeping.

The semi-permanent type lasts a minimum of several days, and possibly for the natural lifespan of the real eyelashes. A single fiber is secured to each eyelash with a stronger adhesive which is waterproof, so it is safe to swim and shower. Waiting several hours after application before washing one's face is recommended however, and the use of oily products around the eyes should be avoided.

Clients can choose from a selection of lash lengths, thicknesses, and colors. Some people will choose a color similar to their own, while those who want to make a bold style statement may prefer a bright color. Lengths tend to range between 5-15 millimeters, and thicknesses range from 0.25 to about 2.0 millimeters. Most applications consist of 30 to 60 lashes.

It can take up to two hours for a full set of lashes to be applied. It's important to not wear contacts or any eye makeup while having the lashes placed. The procedure is not painful and is completed while the customer lays back comfortably and relaxes. Most people find that they don't need to wear mascara with extensions, but if they want to, the technician will recommend which types they can use.

While most people can enjoy impressive results from their lash application, there are some individuals who should consider another alternative. These include anyone whose eyes are frequently irritated by allergies or chronic rhinitis, or those with very curly or short lashes.
