About Eyelash Extensions

Semi-permanent eyelash extensions provide thickness and length to natural eyelashes, thus enhance the charm and appeal of your eyes. Our eyelash extensions are professionally applied by one of Lagoon’s qualified beauty therapists to ensure the synthetic extensions are blended evenly with your natural eyelashes to give them appearance of being naturally thicker and longer.

Our eyelashes are very light and comfortable on the eyes. When applied professionally they do not damage the natural eyelash, which can be the case with traditional self-applied false eyelashes.
Eyelash extensions naturally darken your lashes as they are fuller and therefore more visible.
To maintain the fullness of the lash extensions, we recommend that they are retouched with eyelash infills every two weeks.
To ensure a quality finish, eyelash extensions are for professional application only. The application procedure is comfortable and not painful.
Lagoon’s lash extensions can be removed at any time by a professional.
Semi permanent individual (1 on 1) eyelash extensions look and feel so natural, they can be worn everyday, as well as for special occasions.

Eyelash Choices for Different Eye Shapes

Lash extensions are made from synthetic material and available in various thicknesses, lengths and curvatures to suit different clients’ requirements. J Curl and B Curl lashes are our most popular style of lash and is used in most treatments. The dramatic effect of the eyelash extension can be tailored to the customer’s requirements by careful selection of the eyelash length and thickness used. The overall effect can range from the very subtle, so your extensions look like natural eyelashes to the dramatic, for those who require an eye-catching look. The eyelash lengths used vary from 8mm to 14mm.

Suggested eyelash selection according to the client’s eye shape:

Round Eye: These eyes need to have a medium length lash on the mid section graduating to longer on the outer and shorter on the inner eye.

Almond Shape Eye: In general this eye shape can take the same length throughout, dropping down to slightly shorter at the inner corner. The choice to put slightly longer on the outer eye is optional.

Deep Set Eyes: This eye shape allows you to use a slightly longer lash than you would normally use. This is because the eyes are set deeper and so the extra length is needed to make the lashes more noticeable.

Eyelash Extension Aftercare Advice

Eyelash extensions require gentle care to help lashes last last longer and stay in good condition. Therefore, Lagoon Wimbledon recommends the following aftercare.

Keep your eyelash extensions dry for the first 24-48 hours. It is especially important NOT to get water on your extensions in the first 4-6 hours after your appointment, as this affects the glue and causes premature eyelash extension droppage.

Be gentle. Gently brush your lashes once a day. Do not rub or pull on your eyelash extensions.

Clean your lashes daily (if possible). Apply oil-free makeup remover to you lashes using a disposable mascara wand. Spray onto the wand and gently brush through your lashes.

Keep oil-based products away from around your eyes as it will loosen the adhesive, resulting in premature lash extension loss. Removal of eye make-up must be done with water-based (non oil-based) make-up remover.
You can wear eye make-up, but we do not recommend using mascara. If mascara is necessary, we recommend mascara which is specifically designed to be worn with eyelash extensions and can be easily removed. Apply mascara to the tips of the lashes only, do not swipe from bottom to top.

Avoid saunas or swimming.

Do not use eyelash curlers. Eyelash Extensions and curlers are NOT compatible, use can both damage the extensions and your natural lashes.

Do not use cotton on your extensions. The fluff from cotton can get stuck to lash extensions and your natural lashes.

Ensure eye creams and/or moisturisers do not touch the lashes.

Lashes should not be permed or tinted when you are wearing eyelash extensions. If you require an eyelash tint, you need to do this before the application of lash extensions.

Have regular 1-2 weekly appointments for eyelash infills to keep your extensions maintained. Lagoon recommends having all your extensions removed after 2 or 3 infill appointments and having a fresh set to keep your lashes health.
