Lash Extension — Pre & Post Care

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Please consult your doctor or avoid lash services if you currently have or recently experienced:

  • Contagious eye or skin conditions (e.g. blepharitis, conjunctivitis, bacterial or viral infection)

  • Styes (abscess caused by staphylococcus bacteria)

  • Undiagnosed lumps or bumps around the eye area

  • Herpes outbreaks, boils, open wounds, or sores

  • Body or head lice, ringworm, or other contagious skin infections

  • Claustrophobia (difficulty keeping eyes closed for extended time)

  • Epilepsy (history of seizures)

  • Asthma (in extreme cases)

  • Hay fever / seasonal allergies (clients may feel discomfort due to eye rubbing)

  • Metal allergy (possible irritation if tools contact the skin)

  • Trichotillomania (habit of pulling out eyelashes or eyebrows)

  • Recent semi-permanent eyeliner — must be fully healed for at least 4 weeks

PRE-CARE — BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT

To ensure the best lash retention and comfort:

  1. No Eye Makeup — Arrive with clean eyes and lashes. Oils or residue can affect adhesive bonding and lash retention.

  2. No Caffeine 4 Hours Prior — Caffeine can cause eye twitching, which may delay or affect the precision of lash application.

  3. No Alcohol Before Appointment — Alcohol can increase sensitivity, dehydration, and restlessness when lying down for long periods.

  4. Wash with Lash Shampoo — Clean, pH-balanced lashes create a better bonding surface and help prolong retention.

  5. Shower Before Appointment — Avoid moisture exposure for several hours after your service.

  6. No Lash Curling or Lash Lifts within 6 weeks before your appointment.

  7. No Pulling on Existing Extensions — Pulling can cause natural lash loss and gaps.

POST CARE — AFTER YOUR LASH EXTENSIONS

FIRST 8 HOURS — AVOID

Your lash adhesive is still curing during this time. Avoid:

  • Water and steam exposure (showering, saunas, facials)

  • Mascara, waterproof eyeliner, or eye makeup

  • Heat, smoke, or high temperatures (may alter curl or cause flammability)

  • Oil-based products or removers around the eyes

  • Rubbing, pulling, or tugging at your lashes

  • Curling, tinting, or perming extensions

AFTER 8 HOURS — DAILY CARE

To keep your extensions fluffy, clean, and long-lasting:

  • Cleanse daily using an oil-free, pH-balanced lash cleanser along the lash line to remove oils, debris, and bacteria.

  • Pat dry gently with a clean towel or paper towel — never rub.

  • Brush your lashes with a mascara wand each morning to keep them separated and airy.

  • Avoid sleeping face-down to prevent lash tangling or premature fallout.

  • Schedule fills every 2–3 weeks to maintain fullness and keep your natural lashes healthy.

RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS & ROUTINE

Day Care:

  • Spritz your lash wand with Fluff Guard (LashBoxLA).

  • Rest your finger on the lower lash line for support and brush gently from base to tip in a rolling motion.

  • This removes oil and buildup, keeping lashes lifted and in shape.

  • Drooping or tilted extensions are a sign it’s time to book an infill for fresh new sets.

Night Care:

  • Cleanse nightly with an oil-free lash shampoo (recommended: LashBoxLA Lash Shampoo).

  • Clean thoroughly along and between the lash line and the full eye area.

  • Pat dry gently — do not blow dry.

  • Brush lashes with a clean wand after drying to keep them fluffy and neat.
