Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about caring for your Lash Lift or PermPoint Extensions between visits.
Book an AppointmentCan I wash my face after my appointment?
Yes. Although we use an advanced LED adhesive for PermPoint Extensions, both Lash Lift and PermPoint treatments use lifting solutions that need time to fully settle. Please wait at least 5 hours before washing your face or getting your lashes wet.
Can I wear mascara?
We do not recommend wearing mascara after your treatment. Removing mascara often requires oil-based cleansers, which may reduce the longevity of your results. For a darker, mascara-like effect, we recommend using our Black Lash Serum. It enhances the appearance of your lashes while keeping them healthy and conditioned.
Can I use an eyelash curler?
No. Your lashes are already lifted, so an eyelash curler is unnecessary and may weaken or even break your natural lashes.
Can I sleep on my side?
Yes, but sleeping on your back is recommended, especially during the first few days. Sleeping face down or pressing your lashes against your pillow may cause them to bend or lose their shape more quickly.
Can I swim or go to a sauna?
We recommend avoiding swimming, saunas, steam rooms, and hot tubs for the first 3 days after your appointment. Heat, steam, and prolonged exposure to water may reduce the longevity of your Lash Lift or PermPoint treatment.
Why are some lashes twisting after a few weeks?
This is completely normal. As your natural lashes grow, new lashes begin to replace the lifted ones. During this transition, you may notice a few lashes growing in different directions or appearing twisted. Using a lash serum daily helps keep new lashes healthy, flexible, and easier to manage.
How long will my results last?
PermPoint Extensions typically last 2 to 3 weeks. Lash Lift results usually last 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle, daily care, and the condition of your natural lashes. Results may vary by approximately one week from person to person.
Why should I use lash serum?
A healthy lash holds a lift better. Daily use of a lash serum helps keep your lashes hydrated, nourished, and conditioned, which can improve the appearance and longevity of your results. We recommend applying lash serum every morning and evening.
What is the Keratin Treatment for?
The complimentary Keratin Treatment is designed to replenish moisture and improve the condition of your natural lashes after the lifting process. Apply it every morning and evening for the first 3 days after your appointment for the best results.
I'm flying soon. Will it affect my lashes?
Long flights can dry out your lashes because of the low humidity inside the cabin. If you're traveling, apply your lash serum before your flight and reapply if needed to help keep your lashes hydrated and healthy.
When should I book my next appointment?
For the best results, we recommend booking every 6 weeks. Appointments at Lashkin Studio often fill up in advance, so we encourage scheduling your next appointment before leaving the studio.
