Because the extensions adhere to the eyelash itself, they last as long as the natural growth cycle, or about six weeks. Most eyelash extensions look great between 2 and 4 weeks. During that time, the extensions will continue to look and feel full and fluffy. When your eyelashes stop looking and feeling good, you'll need to go back to your eyelash artist for a retouch.
Touchups are generally cheaper than the original set of eyelashes. Eyelash extensions can last longer than 4 weeks. If cared for carefully, eyelash extensions can last the entire hair cycle of natural eyelashes. A hair cycle is the period of time between hair growth and hair loss.
The length of the hair cycle is influenced by the daily personal lifestyle, such as stress, illness, bedtime, diet, etc. The duration of the hair cycle can be up to 6 weeks. Eyelash extensions aren't dangerous or bad as long as the technician follows the right methods and uses the right materials. A certified and licensed eyelash expert will customize each set of eyelash extensions for each individual client, using between three and five different lengths and up to two different curvatures, Richardson says.
The cost of eyelash extensions can vary widely depending on your location, your eyelash technician, the type of eyelashes being used, and the style you want. Good quality eyelash extensions shouldn't get tangled, but this can happen, especially if you opt for a full set with volume. In reality, there isn't much evidence to show if eyelash extensions actually affect your natural eyelash length or your long-term health. With classic eyelashes, a single extension is attached to a single natural eyelash; with the fan, the technician can apply a few extensions to a single tab to add volume; the hybrid is exactly what a combination of the two looks like.

To keep your eyelash extensions in perfect condition, you should gently brush them with a sponge from time to time and then apply a conditioning serum. Eyelash extensions are expensive and require maintenance, but they give the eyes a natural volume that makes mascara unnecessary. However, there is a very small risk of developing traction alopecia, says Dr.

If you feel that mascara isn't enough and you're okay with the additional maintenance and money that eyelash extensions require, it's definitely worth looking for a specialist and having a consultation, in my opinion. Because eyelashes are at different stages in their growth cycle at any given time, the extensions won't fall out all at once and you may find holes starting to appear a few weeks after you've placed them. While you may need to do a retouch about 3 weeks after applying your extensions, not all eyelash extensions fall out evenly.
