Semi-Permanent EyeLashes

Semi-Permanent Eyelashes

by admin on March 3, 2009

Semi -permanent eyelashes can be a great solution for thinning or sparse eyelashes.  While they can be done by yourself, usually a registered beautician applies the lashes.  Semi-permanent eyelashes are applied, lash by lash over your existing eyelashes.  With proper care and touch-up visits, they can last a very long time.  The life cycle of a normal lash is about 60 to 90 days.  Because lashes fall-out and are replaced by new ones, it is necessary to have touch-ups.  Individual results vary, some clients report having their eyelashes for over a year with regular touch-up visits.  However, semi-permanent eye lashes normally last about 2 months.

The extensions are made of synthetic materials.  They vary on length and thickeness to match your natural eyelashes.  They are applied to your individual lashes one at a time.  The whole process takes about anywhere form 45 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the look you want to achieve.  You can then shower , swim or even spa worry free.  Prolonged exposure to steam and heat , will cause the lashes to loose adhesion.  Waterproof mascara is not recommended with these lashes.

There are some individuals that semi-pernament lashes would not be recommended.  Pregnant women and nursing mothers, diabetics, or any one else witha compromised immune system.

Semi-permanent eyelashes feel no different than your normal eyelashes.  They also look very natural.  While more expensive than false eyelashes, they last longer with little maintenance.  A great solution for bad lashes!

The cost varies, with a full set averaging about $300.00 dollars.  Touch-up visits can cost between $50.00 to $75.00 dollars.
