Hey Beauty lovers!
We've been there. Your gorgeous lash extensions have started to grow out, maybe they're looking a little less fluffy than week one, and you're tempted to just... take matters into your own hands. A quick online search for "how to remove lash extensions at home" might yield some "easy" methods, but here at Envy Lashes, with studios in Sherwood Park, Fort Saskatchewan and Leduc, we're here to tell you why that's the #1 mistake you can make for your natural lashes.
Your lashes are dedicate, and protecting them is our top priority. Let's break down why professional removal isn't just a recommendation- its necessity.
The Hidden Dangers of DIY Lash Removal
Trying to remove lash extensions yourself isn't like taking off nail polish. It's precise process that, when done incorrectly, can lead to serious damage. Here's what's at risk ;
Permanent Lash Loss
Picking, pulling, or peeling off extensions doesn't just remove the synthetic lash; it often takes your own natural lash with it. This can damage the hair follicle, leading to thin, sparse or even permanent inability to grow lashes in that area.
Eye Infections and Irritation
Using homemade concoctions or incorrect products near your eyes is a recipe for disaster. You risk introducing bacteria, causing severe irritation, redness or a painful corneal abrasion.
Uneven and Patchy Results
Without the proper technique, you'll likely be left with a patchy, uneven mess. You might remove some clusters but leave others, forcing you to live with a lash look that's far from fabulous.
The Envy Lashes Promise : Safe, Professional Removal
So, what's the alternative? It's simple, safe and stress-free. Our certified lash artist in Leduc, Sherwood Park and Fort Saskatchewan use a two-step professional process:
Application of a Specialized Remover : We use a medical-grade, gel-based adhesive remover that is specifically formulated to break lash glue without a single ounce of pulling or tugging.
Gentle and Precise Removal : The remover gently dissolves the bond between the extension and your natural lash. Our artists then carefully glide the extensions off, leaving your natural lashes 100% intact, healthy and strong.
The entire process is comfortable, quick (usually under 30 minutes ), and guarantees the health of your lashes for your next appointment.
What to Do After Your Lash Removal
Once your lashes are safely removed, it's time for a little TLC! We recommend giving your natural lashes a break for a few days. You can nourish them with a lash serum and ensure a leftover adhesive is gently cleansed away.
