Hi kitties 🤎 As the warmer months approach I’d like to briefly touch on retention. As we know, humans (and all other animals) shed more hair (including natural lashes) during the warmer months. This is the body’s way of maintaining homeostasis, less hair = cooler body temperature.
Here are a few things we can do to maintain and prolong the life expectancy of our extensions in between fills:
1. Consistent cleansing: Cleansing with the use of the PH balanced Eidolon Lash Wash will ensure that all impurities, dirt, debris, oil, sunscreen, etc., are cleansed from the lashes - prolonging and maintaining the longevity of our extensions 🧼
2. Avoiding product contact such as sunscreen, moisturizers, etc., will ensure that no oils are degrading the bond of the extensions🧴
3. Back sleeping is a sure way to prolong the life of our extensions, less stress on the lashes 💤
4. Consistent fill appointments (biweekly) will ensure that outgrowns are removed and your lashes look fresh during the warmer months when makeup becomes a bother 🧚🏻♀️
5. Avoiding extreme heat is a big one, this does not necessarily apply to the Sun (though it can) - this more applies to using things like blow dryers or saunas. Not only will those things decrease your retention, they will also straighten the extension curl - resulting in the extensions being “flattened” 🌞
6. Rinsing the lashes after swimming is super important, the natural occurring chemicals within chlorine are harsh and will ultimately decrease the lifespan of the extensions. This also applies to swimming in other bodies of water such as lakes or the ocean - always rinse afterwards 🌊
7. Being mindful of our body’s natural secretory process - some of us sweat more and some sweat less, oilier, drier, etc., follow accordingly! 🍊
