Lash Perm vs. Lash Extensions: The Ultimate Guide to Choosing Your Look
"I want my lashes to make an impact, but I'm not sure whether a perm or extensions are right for me."
If you've ever felt this way, you're not alone. Both options are great for enhancing your eyes, but they each have different features and benefits. To help you make a choice you won't regret, let's explore which one is best for your lifestyle and goals.
Lash Perm (or Lash Lift): Perfect for these clients!
A lash perm is a treatment that curls and lifts your natural lashes from the root, creating a beautiful and effortless look.
Pros
Natural Results: Since we're working with your own lashes, the result is incredibly natural and subtle.
Easy to Maintain: There's no special care needed for washing your face or makeup. It's waterproof and perfect for those who work out or play sports.
Morning Routine Saver: Say goodbye to your lash curler and save a ton of time on your morning makeup.
Enhances What You Have: This is a great option if you have naturally long or thick lashes and want to make the most of them.
Good to Know
This treatment won't add length or volume to your lashes.
While we use high-quality, low-irritation Japanese products to minimize damage, it's not a zero-damage treatment.
Lash Extensions: Perfect for these clients!
Lash extensions involve attaching a single artificial lash to each of your natural lashes, offering a customizable look with incredible length, volume, and curl.
Pros
Dramatic Transformation: You have complete control over the length, volume, and curl.
Solves Lash Concerns: Ideal for those with short or sparse lashes, as it instantly adds the length and volume you've been wanting.
Eyeliner Effect: The extensions create a beautiful, dark lash line that makes your eyes pop and helps you save time on eye makeup.
Perfect for Special Occasions: They're a great choice for weddings, parties, or any event where you want a dramatic, stunning look.
Good to Know
You'll need a special cleanser, and daily care requires a little more effort.
They're sensitive to friction and oil, so you need to be careful to make them last.
You'll need to come in for regular maintenance.
How to Choose: A Guide to Making a Decision You'll Love
Still not sure? Let’s narrow it down with these three questions.
What kind of look do you want?
For a natural, bright-eyed look, a lash perm is your best bet.
For drama, volume, and length, go for lash extensions.
What's your lifestyle like?
If you need a low-maintenance, quick solution, choose a lash perm.
If you're willing to put in a little extra effort for a custom, dramatic look, lash extensions are for you.
What are your natural lashes like?
If you have strong, healthy lashes, both options work.
If your lashes are short or sparse, extensions will give you the most noticeable results.
