Lash Cottage

Classic vs Hybrid

Classic lashes look like your real natural lashes with mascara. This look is perfect for you if you’re looking for a little more length and thickness.

Hybrid lashes look like you’re wearing natural false strip lashes. This look is great if you have sparse lashes, gaps or looking for length and volume.

Are lash extensions damaging? Let’s compare!
Do you curl your lashes, wear waterproof mascara/strip lashes and scrub them off each night? In this case, lash extensions will be lighter on your natural lashes. You can also stop using a lash curler and strong makeup remover, which helps natural lashes grow healthier!

Swipe left to see how a month of wearing lash extensions and taking a break from your regular lash routine can help your natural lashes grow longer and stronger.

Lash Lift X Extensions

~ 20- 30 lash extensions are added to each eye and carefully blended together with your keratin lash lift. The effect is so natural; no one will question if your lashes are real or not!

The lash lift lasts 6-8 weeks while the extensions last up to 2.5 weeks.

An accumulation of dead skin, oils and makeup on a shedded natural lash with volume extensions attached.

Even though your lashes may appear clean, please still cleanse them everyday with lash cleanser + water! When zoomed in, there’s actually a build up of oils, sweat and makeup. This will loosen the extension bonds, cause poor retention and is extra weight for your natural lashes to hold.

A keratin lash lift can give a temporary eyelid lift to make the eyes appear bigger and brighter! This effect is achieved painlessly and many clients fall asleep during the appointment.

A lash lift curl will last up to 6 - 8 weeks while the eyelid lifting effect varies depending on natural lash strength and eyelid skin thickness.

Do you want rounder, bigger and brighter eyes?
Then doll eye style lashes might be for you! This style uses longer lengths in the center of eye and shorter lengths on the inner and outer corners.

About 40% of your lashes are always in the growth phase!
Lash extensions are applied at the base of your natural lashes without touching the eyelid skin. After 2-3 weeks, the extensions move further away from the eyelid as your natural lashes grow.

That's why fills are recommended every 2 - 3 weeks and no later than 4 weeks to maintain healthy natural lashes and to replace grown out extensions. After 4 weeks, any extensions that are still hanging on will likely need to be removed and a full set may be needed.

Are you due for a fill / lash lift soon? The busiest time of the year for beauty professionals is approaching! Be sure to pre-book your appointments for November and December 😄

Natural Volume Lash Extensions (2/3D)
This look was created with 2 to 3 light weight extensions applied to each healthy natural eyelash.

Natural volume is perfect for you if you want:
* To appear like you're wearing natural strip lashes.
* Full yet natural looking lashes
* To conceal gaps along your natural lash line
* A more low maintenance look as lash shedding appears less noticeable with more volume

Lash Retention Tip
Wash your lash brush at least once a week with soap 🧼
For extra cleanliness, use soap + air dry + spray brush with 70% alcohol.
Whenever you brush your lashes, small amounts of natural oils, makeup, and debris stick on to your brush. The cleaner your brush is, the healthier and longer lasting your lashes become clean

You also get a new lash brush at each appointment. For more lash retention tips, visit www.lashcottage.com/lash-care

Hybrid Lash Extensions
This style is perfect for those who prefer a natural look, but want a little more volume to conceal any gaps along the lash line.

This look is also great if you want your lash extensions to last longer. Because of the added volume, you can last longer between fills and any lash gaps from shedding will appear less noticeable.

Side Sleeping with Lash Extensions
Do you lose your outer corner lashes quicker? Does one eye seem to have less lashes than the other? If so, here’s a tip that helps improve lash retention and reduce sleep wrinkles.
1) Roll up a small soft blanket or towel like a sushi roll.
2) Place this roll around your pillow in an upside down ‘U’ shape.
3) Rest your cheek on the roll when side sleeping so there's no pressure directly on your lashes.
