Why We Love Shorter Eyelash Extensions More Than Longer Ones

The key to maintaining the best possible retention is avoiding overly-long extensions. This can put too much stress on the natural lashes and lead to damage. The most popular reason people get eyelash extensions is to simplify their morning beauty routine. This is done by eliminating the extra steps in eye makeup (i.e. applying mascara and/or lash strips). With eyelash extensions, one can wake up ready, so to speak.

A common problem that can occur if you have long eyelash extensions applied is premature lash shedding. We do our best to convince our clients to only have us apply extensions no longer than 2mm longer than your natural lashes. This way, the extensions ‘bond’ easier, grow out cleaner looking, appear fuller and last longer. When long extensions are applied, they can often twist when your natural lashes are growing, resulting in premature shedding and a “spidery” appearance.

Shorter extensions will always still be noticeable than natural lashes, no matter the length. All of our eyelash extensions are matte, deep black and curled. When applied by one of our professionals, 100% coverage is guaranteed for lash full sets and fills, transforming your lash line from sparse to voluminous. If you are someone who is experiencing/has experienced trouble with lash retention, we recommend making the switch to shorter eyelash extensions. Natural lengths mean longer-lasting lash extensions that result in fewer fills!
