Lash Lifts vs Lash Extensions – Which One Should You Choose?

Long, voluminous lashes are every beauty lover’s dream. When it comes to enhancing your
natural lashes, Lash Lifts and Lash Extensions are the two most popular options. But how do
you know which one is right for you? In this blog, we break down the key differences,
benefits, and considerations to help you make an informed choice.

What is a Lash Lift?

A Lash Lift is like a perm for your natural lashes. It curls and lifts them from the base,
creating the illusion of longer, more open eyes without any false lashes involved.

Benefits of a Lash Lift :

  • Enhances your natural lashes
  • Low maintenance – lasts 6–8 weeks
  • No need for extensions or daily curling
  • Suitable for sensitive eyes

Pro Tip: Threading provides cleaner results than razors, especially for fine facial hair

What are Lash Extensions?

Lash Extensions involve applying synthetic lashes onto your natural ones using
medical-grade adhesive. They come in different lengths, curls, and thicknesses for a
customized look.

Benefits of Lash Extensions:

  • Dramatic volume and length
  • Instant glam without mascara
  • Tailored styles (classic, hybrid, volume)
