Eyelash Extentions

Eyelash extensions are becoming more and more popular.

Bee Brazilian introduced eyelash extensions in 2006 when no other salon was offering it as a service.

Eyelash extensions are a great way to achieve long and luscious lashes without having to use mascara or muck around with stick-ons!

Unlike the old fake eyelash strips, which were applied to the eyelid, the new semi-permanent eyelash extensions are applied directly to the individual eyelashes. Eyelash extensions have a natural look and feel. They provide length and thickness to a person’s natural eyelashes.

Eyelash extensions are considered semi-permanent, as they can remain in place for the natural cycle of the eyelash itself. A person’s natural eyelash typically falls out every 30 to 90 days and is naturally replaced with growth of a new eyelash. Because of this natural cycle, it is usually necessary to get touch-ups to fill in every two weeks.

The application of a full set of eyelash extensions typically takes around two hours, depending on the skill level of the technician and how many extensions are desired. The application is painless. Clients recline comfortably with their eyes closed and many clients go to sleep during the procedure.

Eyelash extensions are water resistant. Wearers may swim, exercise and shower worry free. Eyelash extensions do not require a lifestyle change for active people.
