Our eyelash extensions are applied individually, one by one, 1mm away from the eyelid, never directly on the skin, to your natural eyelashes using a medical-grade formaldehyde-free adhesive. Lash extensions come in different lengths, thicknesses, and curls, results can vary from very subtle and natural to very noticeable and dramatic.

The procedure can take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour and a forty minutes depending on the service received.

No, eyelash extensions are no worse than applying mascara.

No, eyelash extensions are painless. Most clients feel comfortable enough to fall asleep during the procedure. At Mermaid Beauty Center, we use superior quality products to bring the highest level of comfort possible for our clients.

Yes, appointments are required as we cannot guarantee accommodation for walk-ins. Please schedule an appointment and honor your appointment time to avoid long waits and to ensure quality lash application.

Please arrive with no makeup on or around the eye area. When removing makeup around the eyes, use a mild cleanser and avoid using moisturizers, sunscreen, and removers that have oil-based formulas. Lashes must be clean for the adhesive to bond properly.

We recommend removing your contact lenses before lash application. Eyes may feel dry and irritated with contact lenses kept in during lash application since your eyes must be kept closed for the entirety of the appointment (~1 hour).

We require a removal of your existing extensions before applying your lashes here as we do not perform refill services on work that was not done at Mermaid Beauty Center. This is to avoid the risk of mixing different adhesives and/or different materials, please check our POLICIES for more information.

Eyelash extensions last 3-7 weeks on average depending on a number of factors such as aftercare, hair quality, weather, etc.

Do not get the extensions wet for the first 24 hours after your appointment, keep out of any steam rooms/saunas/swimming pools to give the adhesive sufficient time to bond to the natural lash. Avoid vigorous rubbing of the eyes or tugging at your lashes. Do not use oil-based makeup or makeup removers. Please refer to our AFTERCARE section for more information.

We do not recommend wearing mascara since it is very difficult to remove from the extensions without pulling at your natural eyelashes. Please use oil-free cosmetics when removing makeup close to the eye area while wearing eyelash extensions.

No, an eyelash curler will break the bond on your extensions and will damage your natural eyelashes.

No, as long as you refrain from rubbing your eyes or tugging at the extensions you will not lose your own lashes. Please refer to the aftercare instructions when hand out after the extension as well as our AFTERCARE section for further information.

Our lash extensions range from 8mm to 15mm in length, and 0.15mm to 0.25mm in thickness.

Our lash technicians only use medical-grade adhesive solely made for professional eyelash extensions. Our medical-grade adhesive is formaldehyde-free, contains butyl cyanoacrylate (for fast bonding), poly alkyl methacrylate (for extra hold) and poly isocyanate pigment (for mascara-like color).

We recommend clients come in for touch ups every 2-3 weeks. Clients who prefer to maintain a very full look come in on a weekly basis.

Removals are done at the salon by the lash artist. Do not attempt to remove the lash extensions yourself, it is best to schedule an appointment to have them professionally removed with a special removing solvent. You may also wait for your natural lash cycle to complete and have the extensions fall off naturally.
