Top five reasons advised not to do eyelash extensions

 

 

With the rapid development of micro plastic surgery technology, more and more girls can be beautiful without makeup, such as eyebrow tattooing, eyelash extensions such painless and fast beauty technology, it is the good news for lazy girls. In our last post, we talked about people who are not suitable for semi-permanent eyebrow tattooing. There are more people who are not suitable for eyelash extensions than eyebrows, or many people who want eyelash grafting have been told off by their girlfriends. Let's take a look at the top five reasons why you should not get eyelash extensions (if you need eyelash extension trays wholesale , please contact with OUR LASH).

1. Allergic reactions

Glue is used for eyelash grafting, and glue is the most important source of allergy. Many people have allergic reactions to the glue, such as red spots around the eyes, or even red tears. Some girls who appear a lot of small red spots & small erythema around the eyes after eyelash extensions, feel uncomfortable in skin as well as in bodies.

These are caused by not having a skin test done before applying eyelashes, so be sure to do a skin test before applying eyelashes. If you already have an allergy during the skin test, you can try different glue. If the allergy persists, you are not in the right frame to apply eyelashes. Consider strip eyelashes or use mascaras only, healthy is always the first important things we should take into consideration.

2. Inverted eyelashes

Long lashes look good when you first get them, but as time goes on, your real lashes will grow back. If the lash technicians didn't follow standard procedures when grafting, for example, the false eyelashes were glued too far down and pressed our own eyelashes, these long eyelashes will begin to turn into inverted eyelashes slowly, which continuously drill into our eyes, making our eyes always feel a foreign body sensation, and even cause inflammation in serious cases. Though this problem can be avoided by choosing a reliable lash technician, if it’s your first time to do eyelash extensions, it’s still a little difficult to avoid.

3. Eyelash extensions loss

Lash extensions are not permanent like eyeliner. They have a shorter cycle. Better glue will elongate your false eyelash cycle. If you use poor quality glue, your lashes will start to fall out in a very short period of time. At this time you will find that false eyelashes slowly fall off, true eyelashes haven’t grow out, your first eyelash extensions will end up in particularly ugly bare eyes. So if you love money and choose a random cheap shop to get your eyelashes grafted, then I suggest you would rather not do it.

4. Inflammation of the eyelash hair follicles

To do eyelash extension is a very demanding skill. Some eyelash technicians are not professional enough and they will apply the false eyelashes deep into the hair follicles of the real eyelashes. Once the glue penetrates deep into our hair follicles, it can cause inflammation of our hair follicles and, in severe cases, make our eyes appear red, swollen and purulent. It will even become trachoma or pink eye, so before grafting eyelashes we must think twice, prepare enough budget, choose regular institutions, otherwise it is better not to do it.

5. Thinning of true lashes

Eyelash extensions are not permanent, it actually has a cycle, and this cycle is very short, approximately about 3-4 weeks. Even with regular reseeding, it can only last for 8-10 weeks. As our false eyelashes slowly start to fall out, you will notice that our real eyelashes become particularly thin along with the false eyelashes. Even though our real lashes will grow out after a period, in a short time our lashes will be thinner and shorter than they were before eyelash extensions. And in order to get the best eyelash conditions, you need to give your natural eyelashes a rest every 2-3 months, which means that the grafting of false eyelashes will not be like the eyebrow tattoo, which will keep the best condition for a whole year. If you're not prepared for this, don't do it.

 

It can be tiring to spend dozens of minutes in front of the mirror every day, but if you want to get it done once and for all, there are advantages as well as disadvantages. You may encounter some of the problems mentioned above. Of course, you may not encounter those problems. So make sure you weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.
