Temporary or permanent loss of eyelashes. Eyelash extensions don't damage eyelashes when applied correctly. To avoid damaging natural eyelashes, eyelash extensions must be carefully selected (length and thickness) and correctly applied to one natural eyelash at a time. The biggest myth is that eyelash extensions ruin your own eyelashes.
If applied correctly and correctly, they are safe and do not ruin the health of your natural eyelashes. Make sure you don't rub your eyes or pull or pull out your extensions, as this can cause eyelashes to fall out and even damage your natural eyelashes. If the eyelashes are applied correctly and to each individual eyelash, they will not fall out. Eyelash extensions aren't dangerous or bad, as long as the technician follows the right methods and uses the right materials.
Before going to the consultation, ask the salon about the ingredients in the eyelash glue they use.

Eyelash ornaments, such as sticking small glass beads or crystals to the eyelashes or, more extreme, placing small charms on the wires that are placed on the eyelids, pose the same risks as eyelash extensions, not to mention an additional hazard. Eyelash extensions should be done by a professional eyelash technician if you want to avoid ruining your natural eyelashes.
All your eyelashes are at a different stage at any given time, which means that some of your eyelashes are about to fall out, while others are experiencing a growth period (this is true whether you have eyelash extensions or not).

Eyelash extensions are semi-permanent eyelashes that are glued by hand to natural lashes, says Andra Marin, artistic director and expert eyelash stylist at Courtney Akai Lash Boutique in New York.
