Lash Lift and Tint
How do a lash lift and tint work?
A lash lift and tint are technically two separate treatments but are usuallyrecommended doing them together. It will lift and darken your natural lashes and create a balanced effortless look. A lash lift is essentially a perm for your eyelashes — a solution is applied to each individual lash to create the curled effect, lifting your lashes from the root to create a more awake, freshly fanned out root. There are different types of rods that are used. Think of them like teeny tiny heatless curling irons depending on the desired styling and the amount of curl you would like to achieve, The larger the rod, the softer the curl. Once the lashes are curled, a pro will apply lash tint, think of it like semi-permanent mascara that will make each lash look thicker and longer. It’s a fast service that can transform your lashes in 45 minutes to an hour.
How long do a lash lift and tint last?
A lash lift and tint will last as long as the natural growth cycle of your eyelash: about four to six weeks. Taking good care of your lashes will help keep them looking fresh as long as possible.
Rule 1: It’s important to not get your lashes wet for the first 48 hours.. You should also avoid rubbing your eyes too often or picking at your lashes. Lashes do need to be brushed every so often with a spoolie brush — just don’t overdo it. Try to avoid applying cream-based liners on your top lid, never use a mechanical eyelash curler and avoid mascara.
What kind of results can I expect?
How dramatic your final result will depend on what kind of natural lashes you have. There is only so much that can be accomplished with a lift.. To see results, lashes need to be at least four millimeters long so that the technician has enough to work with. In some cases, lifting and tinting don’t give off the mascara effect that lash extensions do. Especially for those with naturally very fine and light lashes, it will be more of a ‘look how great my lashes are without anything on them’ effect. The longer your natural lashes are, the more dramatic your results will be.
