Q: How Long Do Eyelash Extensions Last

Allie Kok

Hi All!

I had a question from Lauren from the very popular Adelaide Website Adelady asking how long do eyelash extensions last.

In case anyone else had the same question, this is our response:

Eyelash Extensions usually last anywhere between 3 weeks to 6 weeks depending on how well one looks after them and the lifespan of ones natural lash. It is important not to get the lashes wet and try to avoid places with humidity like saunas or pools in the first 24 hours of application to allow the adhesive to properly bond with the natural eyelashes.
It is recommended not to use oil based mascara or in fact any mascara at all if you can avoid it and most girls should not even need to wear mascara with eyelash extensions anyway. If you absolutely NEED to wear mascara, choose a water-based mascara (waterproof and water-resistant mascara is a NO NO).
Try to avoid oil based makeup and remover too. Always try to stick to water-based products.
Do not curl the eyelashes with an eyelash curler. The faux eyelashes come in different curl types anyway so one should not even need to curl them.
The natural eyelash tends to fall off and regrow anywhere between 60 to 90 days. So it depends on which stage of the eyelash formation that the faux eyelash is attached on. The natural eyelash might be in the middle stage of growth in which case has already had a life of approx 30 days but is probably the best time to attach a faux eyelash on as it is at it’s strongest stage. If the eyelash is only a baby eyelash, it will be quite small and not as strong as the ‘teenage’ eyelash. The ‘mature’ eyelashes will fall out the quickest as they have almost already reached their lifespan.
So all those factors will determine the length that the faux eyelashes will stay on

Benefits of 1-on-1 Eyelash Extension Training Adelaide

Allie Kok

We provide only 1-on-1 training as we believe that students will benefit more from this service and we only want the absolute best for our students. We do not believe in group training because we want to focus all of our attention on our students and provide them with the best training possible. 

Pros of 1-on-1 training versus group training:

  • A couple of hours with 1-on-1 training is worth the same as a whole days group training
  • After about 4 hours of training, one's ability to learn greatly diminishes so it's best to learn more efficiently in the first 4 hours of the course. We tend to tackle the theory section of the course at the very beginning when your mind is fresh and start on the practical based section in the afternoon. This way, you can absorb new information as quickly as possible, and be able to apply your newfound knowledge in the practical section.
  • In a class of multiple students, students must fight for the attention of the trainer. With 1-on-1 training, all of our attention is on you and so we can pick up on your mistakes and show you how to improve. With multiple students, it is harder to pick up on mistakes and hence decreases the efficiency of the learning process.
  • Each person is different, some learn quicker than others and we do not want to feel that students are being neglected if we are spending more time with another student.
  • 1 on 1 training is more personalised and with this sort of training it doesn't matter whether you are a slow learner or a quick learner. You receive our absolute full attention so that you can learn even quicker!
  • We can spend more time teaching you technique and fine tuning your technique which is very important in this industry. Again each person is different and has to adapt on the basic technique depending on how comfortable that person feels. Once the basic technique is mastered, then it needs to be fine tuned to that person. You will probably find that each lash technician does things a little differently because they feel more comfortable doing it a certain way and you will need to find the style and technique that suits you best.
