WHAT ARE EYELASH EXTENSIONS?
Eyelash extensions are semipermanent lashes that are hand-glued on top of your natural lashes.
Because lash extensions are glued on individually, unlike strip lashes, they’re super customizable and actually look real.
There are different styles available like one by one classic lashes, Russian volume, and mega volume among the most popular. You can choose the style which better adapts to your eye’s shape, features, and lifestyle (more about this later).

HOW ARE EYELASH EXTENSIONS CREATED?
The eyelash extensions are applied one by one (or in handmade fans) very close to the root of the natural eyelash with the help of a specially designed glue. When we apply one by one extensions as the word says, we apply one extension on one natural lash. The right length and thickness are chosen carefully by first checking your own natural lashes to apply the lightest and greatest fit possible. That’s why after the treatment you won’t have any heavy feeling on your eyes.
Think that every single eye has from 80 to 120 natural lashes, and we are busy applying extensions on all of them. So circa 200 eyelash extensions (on average) in a full set, depending on how many natural lashes you have.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ONE BY ONE LASHES AND (Russian) VOLUME LASHES?
In order to make it understandable, we will divide the styles into 2 macro categories: One by one ( one eyelash applied on one natural lash) and volume ( a fan-made of several lashes applied on one natural lash).
You will probably wonder, ‘’isn’t it better to do one by one since one extension will be lighter than several ones applied on one natural lash?”
Well not really. When you go search for a pair of shoes, you will always choose the right size for you but the style can vary. The same concept with eyelash extensions. A one-by-one eyelash extension can weigh as much as 2 or 3 or 4 eyelashes applied in a fan for a volume set. So the size for you has to stay the same but the style you wear can be different!
Let me bring in some math here, because I think it is important for you to understand exactly what you are going to get when we will meet.
Let’s say your natural lashes are medium thickness, not too thick not too thin, and for this kind of lashes in a one by one set, depending on the look you want to achieve we would choose a 0.15 thickness (which you can translate in how much is the weight of the extension ).
If you want a light volume, we will pick for instance a 0.07 thickness, we will make a fan and instead of one fake lash, we will apply two of them on your natural lash. 0,07*2 = 0,14 thickness so even if they look fluffier, they will even be less heavy!
Let’s say you want a 3D set, we will then pick a 0.05 thickness and it will be 0,05*3 = 0.15 so you will get then the maximum weight you can afford on your natural lashes.
Actually, I will tell you more. When we apply one-by-one lashes, the extension has a longer portion of the body applied on the natural lash, while the fan has just the tip of the base applied on the natural lash, so you will get a wrapping effect that will make it last longer but this technology also allows to increase the number of extensions in a fan without increasing the weight excessively.
This means that even if you chose a 4D set in 0.05 it should be thought of as a 0.20 but in reality, because of the above explanation, the weight will remain around 0.15.
Please see below a scheme explaining different thicknesses between one by one end volume lashes.
From 0.10 to 0.20 – one by one lashes
From 0.03 to 0.10 – volume lashes
HOW LONG WILL THE TREATMENT TAKE?
The average time for a new set is between 1h 15 and 3 hours depending on which style you have chosen.
Here below an overview:
One by one classic lashes – 90’’ circa
Volume 2-6 D – 90’’ to 120’’
Mega Volume 7-12 D – 150’’ circa
Other VIP styles – 150’’/180’’ circa

FAQ.
When is it not possible to get eyelash extensions done?
Whenever the eye is not in a healthy condition. Can be an allergic reaction or just a temporary irritation, you should wait to see your stylist until your eyes are in a healthy condition again.
I have done a lash lifting last week and I would like now to get eyelash extensions, is that possible?
Normally we suggest you wait at least 4 weeks before getting eyelash extensions.
I am pregnant and I am already wearing eyelash extensions, can I keep on getting them?
As far as you didn’t get any reactions during your pregnancy because of lashes, then you should be able to keep on wearing them. However, it is better to make sure your stylist keeps using the same products that have been used since now and that no major changes are made during the treatment aka, products, procedures etc.
Have a talk with your stylist before you continue with the treatment.
I am pregnant, can I get lashes for the first time in this period of my life.
We do not suggest that. We do not perform first-time eyelash extensions sets on pregnant women in JOHANAH salon.
When you have delivered your baby and finish with breastfeeding, you are more than welcome for a fresh new look!
I have done an eyeliner pmu treatment a month ago, can I do my lashes?
No. You have to wait until the pmu is completely healed. Normally at least 6 weeks.
I am very sensitive to several things; I would love to wear eyelash extensions, but I am not sure if I am allergic or not. How can I find out?
We can do a patch test and check that. Get in touch with your stylist to get advice.
What happens if my eyelash extensions fall too early?
Good news here! In JOHANAH salon we have a 1-week policy on fall-out eyelashes. This means that if you have many extensions falling during the first week and you let us know on time, we will make sure we will fill them in at the soonest available spot. It is a very important condition though that you have purchased the Eyelash Foam because we need to make sure you have followed all our aftercare advice.
Can I take a shower after the treatment?
Yes you can in normal weather conditions. When there is a very hot temperature outside ( over 28 degrees) or very humid we advise you to wait 24h before getting them wet.
Can I remove eyelash extensions myself?
No please! Call us, we will make sure we do it in the safest way.
Are my natural lashes getting damaged by the extensions?
Not really. What can damage your natural lashes is:
- Bad or inexistent aftercare (client)
- Plucking eyelash extensions (client)
- Applying makeup on eyelashes (client)
- Choice of the wrong thickness and/or length of the extensions. (stylist + client)
- Wrong application of the extensions (stylist)
I love eyeliner, can I still use it?
We are quite reluctant In applying normal makeup on the eye area when wearing eyelash extension, that’s why we have adopted a special formula designed especially for eyelash extension which is damage free and super beautiful and intense. Check the product below
