A lash lift and eyelash extensions are two different treatments that improve the appearance of your natural lashes. Lash lifts can create the look of longer lashes and do not add artificial materials, and eyelash extensions are done by attaching fibers to your natural lashes. Les Grandeur can help you choose between these two options depending on your personal preference and the condition of your lashes. Here are the differences between lifting your lashes and eyelash extensions and which option may be better for you:
Choose Lash Lift
A lash lift is a treatment that improves the appearance of your natural lashes, and it does this by altering their shape. When you get your eyelashes lifted, your technician will curl your lashes upward from the base. This gives the appearance of defined lashes and is done without needing to add extensions. A technician may use a lifting solution on your lashes to keep them in their new position.
The outcome of lifting your lashes depends on the techniques and products used by the technician, and it usually results in a natural enhancement that makes the eyes look more open. Lash lifts usually last six to eight weeks. The longevity depends on the growth cycle of your lashes and on how well you care for your lashes afterward. Some of these factors are water exposure, oil-based products, and how often you rub your eyes. Lifting your lashes is an ideal option if you want to emphasize your natural lash length, and it can help minimize the need to curl them daily.
Consider Eyelash Extensions
When you get eyelash extensions, you add individual synthetic or natural fibers directly to your natural lashes. This can create a fuller and longer appearance for your lashes. Many professional lash studios offer several extension styles, including classic, hybrid, and volume sets, and each style provides a unique look.
Classic extensions are done when a technician applies a single extension to each of your natural lashes. Getting this done can create a more natural look. A hybrid set combines classic and volume techniques, and it adds length and light volume to your lashes. When you get a volume set, a technician may apply multiple lightweight extensions to each natural lash. This creates a more dramatic effect. Eyelash extension maintenance preserves the look of your extensions, and you may need to regularly get them filled to replace lost extensions. At Les Grandeur, we offer multiple styles of eyelash extensions that suit your unique preferences.
Decide Between the Two
Lifting your eyelashes and getting eyelash extensions have different benefits. Both could last for weeks, minimizing the frequency needed to get them done again. Each technique helps reduce the need to apply mascara every day. If you want a natural look, choose last lift, since this option enhances your eyelashes without adding additional ones.
