Do Lash Extensions Ruin Your Natural Lashes? Here’s the Truth!

Lash extensions sound like the dream, right? Gorgeous, full lashes without the daily work of mascara or lash curling. But with so many stories floating around, it’s fair to ask: Can lash extensions actually harm your natural lashes?

The Truth Uncovered

‍

When done by a skilled, experienced professional, lash extensions don’t harm your natural lashes! Problems usually arise with untrained technicians or rushed applications. Here are three common mistakes that can cause lash damage and why it’s important to see a skilled, licensed technician:

‍

1. Extensions That Are Too Heavy

‍Lash extensions need to match your natural lashes’ strength. Extensions that are too heavy put strain on your lashes, causing premature shedding. An experienced technician will carefully choose extensions that complement your natural lashes without causing damage.

‍

2. Lashes Glued Together

‍Known as "stickies," this happens when multiple lashes are glued together, causing an unnatural pull on your natural lashes. When a lash sheds, it can take other lashes with it, potentially damaging the follicle. Skilled technicians carefully ensure that each extension is bonded to one natural lash to avoid this.

‍

3. Extensions Glued to the Skin

‍Extensions should never be glued to your skin. This not only damages new lashes just starting to grow but can also clog hair follicles and irritate the skin. A trained technician will only attach extensions to your natural lashes, keeping your skin and lash line safe.
