Preparing for Your First Keratin Lash Lift in Astoria

To ensure your lashes are perfectly prepped, arrive with clean, makeup-free lashes. It's also important to communicate any allergies or sensitivities to your technician, who can customize your experience accordingly. Many clients find our space welcoming, noting how gentle and calming our staff can be. One recent client said, "Kylie was so sweet and super talented. Will be back in a few weeks!" This preparation sets the stage for a wonderful service.

Step-By-Step During Your Keratin Lash Lift

When you arrive for your appointment, we’ll discuss your desired lash look in detail. Then, you’ll recline comfortably while we prepare your lashes. After your lashes are prepped, the keratin solution is carefully applied, which usually takes about 60 to 90 minutes, allowing for plenty of time to relax. Throughout the process, our technicians will keep you informed about what to expect, providing a calm atmosphere to ease any anxiety you might have. Many clients tell us, "You can tell they really know what they’re doing and genuinely care about their work!"

Caring for Your Results After the Lash Lift

After your Keratin Lash Lift, it’s normal to feel a little more open and vibrant. We recommend avoiding water, steam, or any heavy makeup on your lashes for the first 24 hours to let the treatment set. Clients typically find that their lashes maintain their lift for about 6 to 8 weeks. Regular visits help achieve consistent, stunning results, which many clients like to maintain every couple of months. As one of our regulars states, "My lashes are always looking fabulous!"

Insider Tips for Your First Appointment

Consider keeping an open mind during your first visit; we strive to personalize your experience. Each technician at DOLLFACE brings their own unique touch, and we encourage you to engage in conversation about your ideal look. You'll find that many clients come back to us, saying, "I wouldn’t trust anyone else to do this!" We really value forging long-lasting relationships with our clients and would love for you to join our beauty family in Astoria.
