How Frequent Should I Get A Skin Treatment?
The frequency of receiving skin treatments does depend on the overall goal of the skin. Treatments for acne are best for frequent visits as one to two times a month. Once a month for resurfacing, hydration, compromised, anti-aging, and pigmentation concerns is best to match the skin turnover cycle.
What Are Classic, Hybrid, and Volume Lashes?
There are three main styles of lash extensions classic, hybrid, and volume lashes.
Classic lashes is one lash extension on one natural lash. This style lengthens and darkens the amount of natural lashes you have. The length of natural lash and health of the lash is taken into factor for the length that is allowed per hair.
Volume lashes are multiple lash extensions that create a fan, this is then placed onto one natural lash. Volume fans are created with a very small diameter lash extensions usually in fans of 3-8 hairs. The strength and length of the natural lashes play a factor in how full of a fan it can hold with causing no damage. Volume lashes do create a fuller lash look. This style can be wispy and airy or dense depending on the look you are wanting.
Hybrid lashes are the combination of both classic lash placement and volume lash placement. This style gives a toned down volume look and a slightly elevated look from the classic style by giving slightly more fullness.
All these styles are the generalized classification. Lashes can be custom and modeled to how you want to look and your eye-shape.
What Do I Need To Avoid With Lashes?
Lash aftercare of avoiding rubbing, pulling, and picking at the lashes will help keep the health of your lashes. By not following the aftercare it will lead to natural lashes being pulled out thinning and damaging the hairs. This will alter the ability of placing certain lashes and even less lashes being placed. Majority of the time the hairs will grow back and the aid of lash serums can allow for quicker growth. There can be a chance the damage is more long term than expecting. Following this guideline will help keep the ability of keeping with lash extensions.
I Heard Lashes Can Damage Your Lashes, Is That True?
Following the precaution with the aftercare is the important to keep with the lashes. This is 50-70% of the responsibility as the remaining 30% portion is on the lash technician. My job as the lash technician is to make the trained judgment of weight and length a single hair can hold. Other factors are making sure there are no two hairs stuck together. This will cause sensitivity and one of the hairs most likely will be pulled out as they continue to grow. The best way to judge if lashes are done properly is that they should not be felt, they should not hurt and not hurt when brushing the lashes.
