Who should avoid wet lash extensions?
Clients with sparse lashes: If you have a sparse lash line, you may notice more gaps with this wet lash look that you’re typically used to. In this case, you’ll likely benefit more from fuller-volume lashes or a combination of both styles.
Thin lashes that grow unevenly: Thin and sparse natural lashes may struggle to support the density of wet-look lash extensions, potentially leading to an uneven appearance and the risk of damage. If natural lashes grow unevenly, the extensions might not adhere uniformly, resulting in an imbalanced and less polished look.
Curly lash types: Wet look lash can create a different straight appearance that contrasts with naturally curly lashes, which may not be the preferred style for clients with naturally curly lashes. The texture of curly lashes can pose challenges in achieving the desired uniform look for wet mascara lash extensions, potentially causing frustration for both clients and lash artists.
How long do wet look lashes last?
Wet lash extensions can last for up to 6 weeks. To ensure their longevity, it’s essential to provide proper and regular care. This includes cleansing with specialized lash shampoo and scheduling infills every 2-3 weeks to maintain their stunning appearance.
Do wet look lashes feel heavy?
Once you’re accustomed to wet-look lashes, they usually feel quite natural and lightweight. However, when touched, you might notice that they feel firmer and sturdier compared to regular volume lashes, which have softer fibers fanned out. In general, wet-look lashes should provide a comfortable and weightless experience, similar to any other set of lashes you’ve had applied by us.
Wet lash extensions are more than just a trend; they’re a game-changer for those who seek drama and allure in their gaze. The glossy, wet mascara effect can transform your lash game into something extraordinary, and we hope this blog has been your guiding light into this captivating style.
