LASH FLARES

The technique that uses ‘‘cluster’’ or ‘‘flare’’ lashes, is NOT eyelash extensions. 

These lashes have been designed for 1 day use, perfect for a wedding day or special event.

Dissapointingly, some salons and spas are offering these under the name ‘‘lash extensions’’. ‘‘Clusters’’ or ‘‘flare’’ lashes can be applied in less than half the time of true extensions, and often cost much less. However, these little groups of 4-6 hairs should NEVER be applied with the semi-permanent adhesive used for true lash extensions. To do so often causes severe loss of natural lashes. This happens because these groups of hairs pull at the natural lashes from several different directions at the same time. 

Cluster lashes can be perfectly safe to use, provided they are attached with adhesives that are worn for one day only, but it is misleading to refer to them as ‘‘extensions’’. If a salon or spa is advertising ‘‘eyelash extensions’’, the lashes applied should be single, individual hairs.
