How to Prepare for Your Lash Appointment

Your Ultimate Pre-App Checklist

Getting lash extensions can be a game-changer for your beauty routine, but there are a few simple steps you can take to ensure your appointment goes smoothly and leaves you with perfect lashes. Here’s your ultimate prep checklist to make the most of your time at the salon.

1

Clean Those Natural Lashes

Before you head in for your lash appointment, make sure your natural lashes are free from makeup, skincare, and oils. Any residue can affect the adhesive and make your lashes not last as long. Use an oil-free cleanser to ensure your lashes are squeaky clean, and avoid using mascara or any heavy products in the hours leading up to your appointment.

2

Skip the Caffeine

While that cup of coffee might be tempting, try to skip it before your appointment. Caffeine can make it harder for you to relax, and you want to be as calm and still as possible during the process. The less fidgeting, the better the result!

3

Bring Earphones or Request a Playlist

This is your time to unwind, so feel free to bring your earphones and listen to your favourite podcast or playlist. Many salons will let you pick what you want to listen to, so don’t hesitate to ask for a calming playlist or a fun podcast to help pass the time.

4

Hydration is Key – But Don’t Overdo It

Drinking water is always important, but you might want to ease up a bit before your appointment. You’ll be lying down for a while, and the last thing you want is to feel distracted or uncomfortable because you need a bathroom break. Stay hydrated, but maybe skip that extra glass of water right before you head to the salon.

5

Dress Comfortably

You’ll be lying down for a while, so make sure you wear clothing that makes you feel relaxed.

6

Arrive Early, Relax and Enjoy

To avoid any last-minute stress, aim to arrive a bit early to your appointment. This way, you’ll have plenty of time to settle in and get comfortable before the session starts. Taking a few extra moments to breathe and enjoy the process will help you feel calm and collected throughout the appointment.
