Eyelash Extensions in Ruaka

Choosing your set

• Classic Cat Eye: 45 min, KES 1,500. One extension per natural lash, longer towards the outer corner for a lifted, elongated shape.
• Classic Open Eye: 45 min, KES 2,000. Length concentrated in the centre, which opens and rounds the eye.
• Hybrid: 60 min, KES 2,500. A mix of classic and volume fans. Fuller than classic, still natural looking. Our most popular set.
• Volume: 120 min, KES 3,500. Handmade fans of several fine lashes on each natural lash. Dense and dark.
• Mega Volume: 180 min, KES 4,500. The fullest set we do. Three hours, and worth booking a morning for.

If you are not sure, book hybrid. It is the set most people end up at anyway.

Before your appointment

• Come with clean lashes. No mascara, no eyeliner, no eye cream that morning.
• Skip caffeine if you can. Fluttering eyelids make fine work harder.
• Take contacts out or bring your case.
• Use the bathroom first. You will be lying still with your eyes closed for a while.
• Do not curl or tint your lashes in the 48 hours before.

Aftercare, and how long they last

A set lasts as long as your natural lash cycle, so two to three weeks before it starts thinning and four to six weeks before it is due. Most clients book a refill at three weeks.

• Keep them dry for 24 hours after application while the adhesive cures fully.
• No oil based products anywhere near the eye area. Oil dissolves lash adhesive.
• Do not rub or pick. Pulling extensions takes your natural lashes with them.
• Brush them daily with the spoolie we give you, and cleanse gently with a lash safe wash.
• Skip waterproof mascara. Removing it removes your lashes.

Sleeping face down is the other quiet culprit. If you always lose the same side, that is why.
