MY EYELASH EXTENSIONS

Welcome to the wonderful world of Eyelash Extensions!

xtreme permanent eyelash extensions

We are Xtreme Lashes® Volumation™ certified professionals

" IF THE EYES ARE THE WINDOWS TO THE SOUL, THEN THE EYELASHES ARE THE CURTAINS THAT ENHANCE THEIR BEAUTY AND GIVE THEM DEPTH!"

Women have always wanted longer fuller, more luxurious eyelashes. For years, we have been forced to use heavy mascara, eyelash curlers or fake lashes to mimic the effect of longer eyelashes.
Now, with Xtreme lash extensions you no longer have to pretend. Xtreme eyelashes enhance and define your eyes as never before. They provide length, thickness to natural lashes  and instant gratification. When the eyes are enhanced, the face appears more alert and alive, creating younger-looking appearance.
Have you ever wondered how all of the hot celebrities have such beautiful eyelashes? Well wonder no more. They are wearing eyelash extensions. Xtreme lashes can be customized to suit your individuality using different lengths, sizes and thickness of the lash.

You will love our range of curvatures and how each curl can play its part in creating a dramatic look. Are you ready for that extra oomph!

Xtreme eyelash extensions provide a quick-fix to fragile, dry and thin lashes. However, because eyelash extensions attach to your current lashes, if you have gaps in lashes or lashes that are too brittle for the service, we will recommend not to do it. Brittle and fragile lashes are something that many women today face due to a number of reasons, including aging and lack of hydration. We suggest that clients use eyelash conditioner to give lashes a better platform. Eyelash conditioners are especially important for clients wearing eyelash extensions in order to detangle, moisturize, and reduce adhesive breakdown. Eyelash conditioners can also help strengthen and condition the eyelash follicle under the extension for enhanced growth. We recommend following product:   GrandeLash-MD or RapidLash.

Relash - Fill-ins will vary from individual to individual and depend on your natural eyelash cycle as well as how you take care of your extended lashes. A natural eyelash falls off every 60 to 90 days on average due to the natural growth cycle and is naturally replaced with the growth of a new eyelash. Fill-ins should be applied every 2 - 4 weeks. If you wait too long many of your extensions may fall of and you will need to have the full set re-applied.

Benefits of the Xtreme permanent eyelash extensions done by a certified professional:

  • Natural look and feel
  • Get up and go
  • Water proof - great for brides, water sports, swimming
  • Sweat proof - Athletes, outdoor activities

"Eyelashes have become a must-have, everyday accessory.

False eyelashes have gone from special-occasion adornment to a must-have, everyday accessory. It's number-one accessory! You need to find a place that is doing eyelash extensions that look really natural and don't damage the lashes. There are a lot of options and many types of different eyelashes. For example, we have synthetic lashes and mink lashes. Minks are known for being very light. One big thing is customization. When our client is getting an eyelash extension done, the style is chosen first, followed by the material. Eyelash extensions are life-changing and they're not necessarily a trend, but the new standard."

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are semi-permanent eyelash extensions comprised of individual synthetic eyelashes that are curved to replicate a natural eyelash. Our lashes are thicker at the base and taper to a fine point. They are applied to individual eyelashes, one extension at a time, for a natural, elegant look to lengthen and add fullness to the existing lashes. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are for professional application only. Self-application and application by untrained individuals is strongly discouraged. Eyelash extensions are worn by many celebrities, actresses, singers, models and showbiz people like Nicole Kidman, Angelina Jolie, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Gwen Stefani, Lucy Li, Naomi Campbell, Liz Hurley to name a few.
Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are crafted from synthetic polyester. Synthetic lashes respond better to wear and tear than other materials. In addition, synthetics have the least possible chance of allergic reactions with human skin. Testing has shown that there are higher percentages of people who will have adverse reactions to contact with lash extensions created from animal hairs such as mink.
With proper application, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions look and feel completely real. Each application is customized to suit the individual. We offer three thicknesses of lashes and two different curls with lengths ranging from 6mm to 17mm in a variety of colors for highlighting effects. Differing individual synthetic lash lengths are chosen to carefully replicate the shape and frame of a natural lash line. The thickness of the Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions applied is determined by the health and thickness of your natural lashes as well as personal preference. The overall effect is added curl, thickness and length, opening up the eye for added definition. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are designed to be indistinguishable in size and weight to human lashes. They are flexible yet crimp-resistant and they move with your natural lashes. As long as you keep up with the touch up applications, it is almost impossible to tell that you are wearing the extensions. Because an Xtreme Lash™ is an exact replica of an eyelash, it weighs about as much as a natural lash: practically nothing. You will not notice the addition of the extensions to your lashes and they will not cause your natural lashes to fall out ahead of their natural cycle as other enhancement methods can.
Most women choose Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions to lengthen their natural lashes while others want their lashes to look fuller. A number of women with naturally light colored lashes choose Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions to darken their existing lashes. Still others love the different, fun looks they can achieve with highlighting and layering. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions can create a younger appearance on many clients. Several consumers who were contemplating having work done on their faces have informed us that they no longer feel the need as a result of wearing Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions semi-permanent eyelash extensions create the appearance of a brighter, more open and rested eye, thereby creating a more youthful and rejuvenated look. Above all the main advantage of Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions is how much time you can save during your beauty regimen. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions allow you to spend less time with makeup; mascara is certainly no longer necessary. Because our lashes are bigger at the base, they create the same effect as eyeliner so that step can be avoided as well. Overall, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions will give you the appearance of having put significant effort into your eye makeup when, in reality, you spent no time at all. No application of eye makeup and no need for removal at the end of the day. The added benefit is that they look beautiful morning and night, all day, every day. Say goodbye to the application of mascara, stained tears and mascara masks around the eyes. With Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions you can look and feel like a gorgeous model from the moment you wake up until the moment you fall asleep with little to no effort.
When properly applied, an Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions eyelash extension will remain in place until the natural lash on which it rests falls out. This can be as long as two months or more.
  • Natural eyelashes grow in and fall out in cycles (every 60 to 90 days). When a natural lash matures and falls out, a new lash has already been growing and quickly replaces it without us noticing the turnover. This process is constant and at any given moment our many natural lashes are at different stages of maturity.  Some are just growing in while others are ready to shed. People typically shed between 1 and 5 natural lashes each day depending on their individual growth cycles. On shorter natural lashes this growing and shedding cycle is virtually unnoticeable. 
     
  • When eyelashes are extended with Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions, it will be more noticeable when these lashes shed because they are longer and darker than natural lashes.  Please keep in mind this is a perfectly normal occurrence with or without extensions. Lash Stylists will apply Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions primarily to those lashes that are in the middle of their maturation cycle to maximum the amount of time they will last, without jeopardizing the health of ‘baby lashes’.  The Xtreme Lash™ will fall out with the natural lash it is attached to when it reaches the end of its growth cycle. A few Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions may shed within the first week because the attached natural lashes are at the end of their growth cycle. Most will remain in place for approximately two months. 
     
  • With proper care and maintenance, touch ups are typically only needed once every 2 to 4 weeks to replace the lashes that have shed. Your Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Stylist will add extensions to the newest mature natural lashes to maintain a full, lush appearance.
Depending on the expertise and experience of the Lash Stylist and the number of lashes being applied, it generally takes between 90 to 150 minutes to apply a full set of Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions. Touch ups can be done in as little as 15 to 60 minutes.
You will be comfortably reclined with your eyes closed while Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are applied one at a time to your own natural eyelashes. There is no discomfort or pain involved in the procedure. In fact, most clients find it is so relaxing and comfortable that they fall asleep.  To watch a video on eyelash extension (click here)
Because Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are applied to existing natural lashes you must have some natural lashes to receive the procedure. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions should not, and in many cases cannot, be applied to clients who have alopecia, are undergoing chemotherapy or those who suffer from Trichotillomania, unless and until the individual has received effective treatment and normal lash growth has resumed. When extensions are difficult for some people eyelash conditioner can be considered.
No. Only a trained professional will be able to safely apply Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions. Unprofessional application or self-application may cause eye injury, lash damage or unnatural looking lashes. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are applied one lash at a time to your individual natural eyelashes to achieve long, thick and natural looking eyelashes. The procedure involves bonding the synthetic extension to your own natural eyelashes and should be performed by professionally trained Lash Stylists only.
Though Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are easy to maintain, the first twenty-four hours are crucial for a strong bond. You should keep your lashes dry and avoid touching them. After twenty-four hours, care is fairly simple: avoid oil based products and be gentle with the lashes. They are resistant to water, sweat and tears.

Your Lash Stylist should give you a detailed, easy care maintenance instruction manual following your procedure. In general, to maintain your new look and extend the life of your lashes, follow these simple guidelines:
  • For the first 24 hours after application the lashes should not be exposed to water or steam to allow the adhesive time to fully bond. We recommend avoiding swimming and the spa for 48 hours after lash application for best results.
     
  • Be gentle with your lashes; do not pull on the extensions or rub the eyes excessively.
     
  • Avoid the use of oil-based products on or around the lashes and do not use waterproof mascara. Water based mascara and water based mascara remover may be used if desired. Apply the mascara sparingly and remove it gently with a water-based eye makeup remover. Ask your Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Stylist if she carries the Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions water-based mascaras and Xtreme Eye Makeup Remover, specially formulated for eyelash extensions.
     
  • Ask your Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Stylist if she carries Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Protective Coating. You can apply Protective Coating once or twice per week on your new lashes to preserve the look and extend the life of your Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions. Brush on from the base up to the tips. This coating also gives the lashes a wonderful shine!

We recommend getting a touch up every two to four weeks to maintain maximum fullness of your Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions.

Correct eye makeup cleansing can help achieve longer lasting lashes!

Removing GlideLiner :

  • Saturate a Lint-Free Applicator with Eye Makeup Remover & Facial Cleanser
  • Gently wipe across lash line, between the lashes and across the eyelid and rinse eye area with water
  • Repeat until all traces of GlideLiner are removed, pat dry, and groom lashes using the Xtreme Lash Styling Wand.

Removing Length & Volume and Volumizing Mascara:

  • Saturate two Lint-Free Applicators with Eye Makeup Remover & Facial Cleanser
  • Place one applicator beneath and the other above the lashes
  • Gently wipe the lashes in an upward motion toward the tip of the lashes to loosen and remove mascara
  • Rinse applicators with water and repeat until all traces of makeup are removed
  • Rinse eye area with water, pat dry, and brush lashes into place using Xtreme Lash Styling Wand
You can enjoy these lashes with little need to adjust your lifestyle. Provided you follow the simple maintenance instructions, are not involved excessively in heat or water activities, and treat the lashes with care they will last through the natural lash life cycle and fall off with the natural lash, not before. You can swim, shower and spa as usual so long as these activities are not engaged in excessively. (Please do not swim or spa for 48 hours after the procedure to allow the adhesive to fully cure.) A competitive swimmer who is constantly in the chlorinated water may lose some lashes earlier than the average person as may someone who gets very frequent facials (weekly) or goes into the steam room daily. Doing an above average level of activities related to heat or constant water exposure may weaken the adhesive bond causing some early lash loss.
There are no products that are required to be applied to the lashes. Optionally, consumers can use Xtreme Protective Coating™ which acts as a sealer on the adhesive creating an even stronger bond to the natural lash. It can be applied one to two times per week on the lashes to extend the lasting power of Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions especially recommends this product to those clients with oily skin or those who do not carefully maintain their lashes. If you choose to wear mascara we recommend using one of the Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions water-based mascaras and Xtreme Eye Makeup Remover, specially formulated for eyelash extensions. Additional curl can be safely added to the lashes as well with an Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Heated Eyelash Curler. Ask for these items from your local Lash Stylist.
Indeed, one of the main advantages of Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions is that you never need mascara again. However, if you must have the mascara look, only water based mascara can be used. You can purchase one of our specially formulated Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions mascaras from your local Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Stylist. DO NOT USE OIL-BASED OR WATER-PROOF MASCARA. Waterproof mascara along with any type of oil based mascara will dissolve the adhesive and cause your Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions to fall off.
A natural lash typically sheds every 60 to 90 days and is replaced with the growth of a new eyelash. Since Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are applied one by one to each individual hair, after 2-4 weeks, approximately 1/3 of the lashes will have cycled out. At this point, touch ups are required to replace the lashes that have completed their life cycle. Touch ups generally take a short time and are relatively inexpensive.
As the natural lashes cycle out and shed, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions will shed with them. However, if necessary, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions can be professionally removed by a Lash Stylist using our specially formulated adhesive remover. The removal process normally takes approximately 15 to 30 minutes for a full set. Never try to remove eyelash extensions on your own. Damage can be caused by pulling the extensions off with the natural lash, removing the natural lash before it is ready to shed.
At this time, the FDA does not regulate eyelash extensions since they are solely applied to the lashes and do not touch the skin. The primary ingredient in both of our exclusive HP Adhesives is the same ingredient used by plastic surgeons in the U.S. for suture-less wound closure (to close skin wounds without stitches). The application process is pain-free and relaxing. In fact, many clients fall asleep during the procedure. However, improper application by an unqualified technician can cause damage to your eyes and eyelids. Do not trust your eyes to just any technician.
Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions cause no damage to the natural lashes. Our adhesives have been developed to exacting specifications. Our top priority was ensuring a thoroughly safe product so we chose to follow the standards set by the US Medical Industry and top US Surgeons. The main ingredient in both our adhesives is the same ingredient used for suture-less wound closure. These adhesives are the perfect blend of safety, longevity, flexibility and strength. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions strongly believes that eyelash extensions are best applied by individuals who are already trained in areas like sanitation, safety, and health issues. Therefore, we sell exclusively to individuals who have previously received training in a health or beauty field such as cosmetology, esthetics or nursing. In addition we require these trained professionals attend and successfully complete our hands-on workshop in order to purchase any of the professional products or tools we offer.
Because Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are applied to existing natural lashes an individual must have some natural lashes for the procedure. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions should not, and in many cases cannot, be applied to clients who have alopecia, are undergoing chemotherapy or those who suffer from Trichotillomania, unless and until the individual has received effective treatment and normal lash growth has resumed.

Cancer/Chemotherapy Recovery:

Cancer patients can begin having Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions applied once chemo has completed and lashes are beginning to grow in again. During this initial growth stage the lashes are weaker and thinner than they originally were. Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Thin (.10mm) lashes can be applied during this stage to thicken the lash line without causing stress to these weakened lashes. As stronger lashes start to grow, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Thick (.15mm) lashes can added for more fullness. For cancer patients whose lashes are growing back sporadically, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions Stylists can use special techniques to compensate for any gaps. 

>Alopecia:

Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions should only be applied once lash growth has resumed. As with Cancer recovery patients, special techniques can be used to add additional fullness during the regrowth period and to compensate for any gaps.

Trichotillomania:

Individuals with Trichotillomania (an impulse disorder characterized by the urge to pull eyelashes and other hair out) do not make good candidates for Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions unless and until they have received effective treatment. Extensions may provide a stronger urge for these individuals to pull at their lashes if they are not undergoing treatment.

Skin Sensitivity:

Although our adhesives are developed to be safe for use on the skin, Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are never applied to the skin therefore allergic reactions due to contact with our adhesives are rare. Individuals with allergies to other cosmetics or fragrances may experience some sensitivity to ingredients in some of the other materials used to apply Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions such as our Anti-Wrinkle Gel Patches. We recommend those with known sensitivities undergo a patch test on the Gel Patches prior to application. If necessary, Lash Stylists can apply medical tape under the eyes during the procedure instead.
There are several other methods for enhancing lashes available today. Be sure you read the following information to make an informed decision.

False Strip Lashes
Traditional false lashes are made up of numerous human or synthetic eyelashes attached together in one pre-made strip. Strips are adhered with a temporary adhesive on the skin above the upper lash line.

Although readily available and relatively easy to use, strips are the least natural looking and possibly most damaging of the eyelash enhancement options. They should not be applied frequently or worn long term. Doing so can lead to infections, blocked glands, premature lash loss and even permanent lash baldness due to follicle damage from the adhesives. The adhesives used can also loosen from perspiration or contact with water causing potentially embarrassing situations.

lash flaresFlares or Lash Clusters (Occasionally misrepresented as lash extensions)
Cluster lashes, or flares, typically consist of groups of 5-8 blunt-end lashes knotted together. They can be applied either directly to the skin (between natural lashes) or on top of a grouping of existing lashes.

They are more natural in appearance than strips but carry many of the same concerns (the same skin adhesives are used when attaching to the eyelid) as well as a few additional ones. Several natural lashes are typically glued together to support the weight of a single flare. If left in place for a period of time, this will cause faster growing natural lashes to prematurely pull out slower growing lashes from the root because they are adhered together. This can result in permanent damage and lash baldness if done repeatedly.


Individuals (Often misrepresented as lash extensions)
‘Individuals’ are synthetic lashes that are stacked one on top of the other and attached at the base, often with a knot to allow for fast and easy adhesion.  Typically there are three lashes in each grouping with the longest on the bottom and the shortest on the top attached together.  Like flares, individuals can be attached to either the skin, if they are knotted, or the natural lashes.

Individuals have the same concerns as clusters or flares (see above) with regards to weight when applied to the lashes and skin irritation when applied directly to the eyelid.

 

Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions:

 

*If you book an appointment for eyelash extensions make sure you are getting single synthetic Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions  and not flares or ‘individuals’.

Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions are single strands of synthetic eyelashes that are curved to replicate a natural eyelash. They are applied to individual eyelashes, one lash at a time, for a natural, elegant and luscious look.
Xtreme Lashes® Eyelash Extensions uses the safest medical grade eyelash extension adhesives.

1. The industry term “eyelash extensions” applies to single synthetic lashes only. Groups of synthetic lashes are called flares, clusters or tabs. They are heavier than eyelash extensions and not recommended for frequent use or long lengths of time.

2. Eyelash extensions are not “one size fits all”. Everyone’s lashes are different and eyelash extensions should be customized to each individual for the correct length and thickness to suit their look and ensure the health of their natural lashes. Not everyone can or should get super long or super thick eyelash extensions!

3. A full set of eyelash extensions is not all one length. The shape of your lash line tapers – it’s longer in the center and shorter on the outsides and your extensions should be too. Following the design of the natural lashes creates natural-looking extensions!

4. Natural lashes grow to a finite length (different for each person), fall out and are replaced by new growth, just like the hairs on your head. When eyelash extensions are applied and maintained correctly, they will grow out with your natural lash and still be attached to the lash when it sheds.

5. Natural lashes are constantly growing in and falling out at different times so your eyelash extensions will too! There is no set amount of time that eyelash extensions will last because they will shed with the natural lash they are attached to when it grows out and that time varies. Due to growth cycles and different stages, the best estimate is that you will shed 1-5 natural lashes per day – including those with extensions and those without. Frequent re-lashes will replace those that have shed to maintain a full look.

6. You SHOULD be seeing your natural lashes and extensions fall out together. This is normal. If your extensions fall off before the natural lash, the adhesive bond wasn’t strong enough or maintenance instructions were not followed correctly.

7. You CAN wear mascara on eyelash extensions but it MUST be OIL-FREE. You shouldn’t need to, but you can. (Not all products labeled “oil-free” are truly oil-free – they only have to be 70% oil-free to be labeled that way, according to the FDA. Your best bet for extension care is to purchase products specifically designed for eyelash extensions.)

8. Eyelash extension adhesive is designed to create a permanent bond between the extension and the natural lash. It is nearly impossible to remove extensions yourself without damaging your natural lashes.

Known problems for incorrectly applied lashes

The following list highlights the major problems and side-effects that result from applying extensions that are either too thick or too long for the natural lash they are attached to:


  • Extensions that are not matched in diameter with the natural lash will NOT last as long.
  • Extensions that are too heavy for the natural lash will weigh the natural lash down, causing the lashes to hang in front of the eye.
  • Extensions that are too heavy for the natural lash will tangle and crisscross constantly and require extra grooming.
  • Excessive weight from using extensions that are too thick or too long for the natural lash can cause the natural lash itself to prematurely shed or even break off.
  • Natural lashes that have extensions attached to them which are too heavy will begin to grow in pointing downward; precisely the look you do NOT want from your lashes!
  • Repeatedly applying extensions that are too heavy for natural lashes will, over time, damage the lash hair follicle, inhibiting future growth and potentially causing permanent lash baldness.
