Walk-in lash extensions offer a beautiful, low-maintenance look for those who don’t want the hassle of sweeping on eye makeup every morning. They create the illusion of fuller, thicker lashes that look more natural and even help open up your eyes for a brighter appearance. And because they’re easy to maintain, you’ll save so much time in the long run not having to worry about a full sweep or running out of mascara.

However, like any beauty service you should do your research and choose a reputable salon. Make sure the technicians are properly trained and certified to perform your lash service, and ask about their education and experience. Additionally, check out their online reviews to ensure you’re choosing a quality service. You’ll also want to avoid salons with rock-bottom prices. That’s a red flag that they may be using inferior materials and glue to cut corners.

If you do end up with a bad lash experience, it’s important to remember that eyelash extensions aren’t dangerous or “bad” as long as they are done by an experienced and certified technician who is following the correct techniques. If you’re unsure about the quality of your salon, or you feel uncomfortable at any point during your service, don’t hesitate to cancel and reschedule.

When your lashes are set, be gentle with them and do not touch them as this can disturb the adhesive that’s setting. Also, avoid swimming, steam rooms, saunas and extreme heat for 24 hours after your appointment as this can affect the longevity of your lash extensions.
