There are a lot of misconceptions out there about eyelash extensions from it being an unpleasant process to the notion that your natural lashes will all fall out and stop growing back ever again.

First things first, your eyelashes fall out anyways.

You simply do not understand it since they’re small and significant, but our natural lashes fall out every 4 to six weeks just like the hairs on our heads.

Eyelash extensions only get a bum rap since it’s more noticeable to find natural eyelashes that have actually shed when they’re glued to long, thick, synthetic, and solid black fibers, and individuals don’t understand the process is normal and not a result of extensions.

Your eyelashes will, in reality, grow back. Because of the lash shedding cycle, brand-new natural eyelashes are continually growing in, thus why you get “fills.” “If new eyelashes weren’t always growing back, there would be nothing to fill,”

To puts it simply? If eyelash extensions made your eyelashes cease growing, refills would not even be possible, since there has to be a natural lash for the extension to stick to.

There are a lot of myths out there about eyelash extensions, from it being a painful process to the idea that your natural lashes will all fall out and stop growing.

Take it from somebody who has gotten them done a number of times: Nothing about the process harms! It’s not a matter of tolerance levels; there merely is no pain involved in the eyelash extension process. If you are fretted about someone using tweezers close to your eyes, you may feel stress and anxiety. However, pain is not part of the deal.

“Getting eyelash extensions does not impact the natural development cycle during or after you choose to stop getting them used,” Many people feel that their natural lashes get thinner or much shorter, later on.

However, it’s essentially an optical illusion. “You get used to awakening every day with thicker, dark, curled, longer lashes,”

So, understandably, you think your eyelashes are thinner and shorter after the extensions have actually ended. In reality, that is not the case and getting extensions has no chemical effect on the density or length of the lashes you were born with.

“However much like it was something you got utilized to when you first had them used, you will likewise need to get used to not having them on once again,” That, or continue to pay for extensions.

Lots of people believe that you have to take breaks from getting extensions to let your natural lashes “breathe.” The concept that it’s not good to get duplicated extensions because your eyelashes require breathing space is a mere myth.

“Your eyelashes do not know that extensions are being applied to them, and they continue to shed off like normal, and a new natural lash will grow back,” “Nevertheless it is entirely as much as the customer whether they want to take a break.”

False. It can take forever if the professional you’re seeing is merely starting out at eyelash extensions or is unskilled and untrained. Nevertheless, specialists who focus on eyelash extensions can carry out a complete set in merely an hour.
