A new fashion trend is growing in the U.S. semi-permanent eyelash extensions. ROQUE SALON IS OFFERING THiS NEW SERVICE Wearers can have long, beautiful, yet natural looking eyelashes 24 hours a day, seven days a week without the hassles of mascara. Eyelash extensions are being worn by A-list stars like Sandra Bullock, Jennifer Lopez, Nicole Kidman, Star Jones, Paris Hilton, Gwen Stefani, Lucy Liu, Naomi Campbell and Liz Hurley.

Experts at Lashe Spot Lashes, explain that unlike the old fake eyelash strips which were applied to the eyelid, the new semi-permanent eyelash extensions are applied directly to the individual eyelashes. Eyelash extensions have a natural look and feel. They provide length and thickness to a person’s natural eyelashes.

Eyelash extensions are considered “semi-permanent,” as they can remain in place for the natural cycle of the eyelash itself. A person’s natural eyelash typically falls out every 60 to 90 days and is naturally replaced with the growth of a new eyelash. Because of this natural cycle, it is usually necessary to get touch-ups to fill in every two to four weeks.

The application of a full set of eyelash extensions typically takes between one and three hours, depending on the skill level of the technician and how many extensions are desired. The application procedure is painless. Clients recline comfortably with their eyes closed during the entire procedure. Most clients go to sleep during the procedure. Lashe Spot lashes feel weightless and provide a beautiful, lush appearance.

The eyelash extensions are water resistant. Wearers may swim, exercise and shower worry free. Eyelash extensions do not require a lifestyle change for active people.

The cost of an application varies throughout the country, but usually is between $200 and $350. Touch-ups are usually done for a fraction of this, depending on how many lash extensions need to be added. Eyelash extensions are great for special occasions or for everyday wear.

They are applied to individual eyelashes, one lash at a time, for a natural, elegant and luscious look. Lashe Spot Lashes™ is perfect for special occasions as well as for every daywear

How long do Lashe Spot Lashes Last?
When applied properly, semi-permanent Lashe Spot Lashes™ can last up to 2 months, depending on the natural growth cycle of your eyelashes and the expertise of the technician applying the eyelash extensions. You will probably want touch-ups every two to four weeks. Lashe Spot Lashes™ HP-3 High Performance Bonding Agent is specially formulated with a unique waterproof bonding agent to last. Imitation glues may not last as long because of an inferior bonding strength. You can also purchase our specially formulated Long Life Coating to prolong the life of the Lashe Spot Lashes™.

Can I apply Lashe Spot Lashes to my own eyelashes?
No. Only a trained professional will be able to safely apply Lashe Spot Lashes™. Unprofessional application or self-application may cause eye injury or clumpy, unnatural looking lashes. Lashe Spot Lashes™ are applied one lash at a time to your individual natural eyelashes to achieve long, thick and natural looking eyelashes. The procedure involves bonding the synthetic extension to your own natural eyelashes.

How often should I get touch-ups?
We recommend getting a touch up every two to four weeks. A natural eyelash falls off every 60 to 90 days on average due to the natural growth cycle and is naturally replaced with the growth of a new eyelash. At any given moment, each of your natural eyelashes is at a different stage of its life cycle. A touch up is needed to replenish the lashes that have completed their life cycle. Touch ups generally take a short time and are relatively inexpensive.

Can I apply mascara to Lashe Spot Lashes?
Indeed, one of the main advantages of Lashe Spot Lashes™ is never needing mascara again. However, if you must have the mascara look ONLY WATER BASED MASCARA CAN BE USED. You can purchase our specially formulated Lashe Spot Lashes™ mascara from your local Lashe Spot Lashes™ representative. DO NOT USE OIL-BASED OR WATERPROOF MASCARA. Waterproof mascara along with any type of oil-based mascara will dissolve the bonding agent and cause the Lashe Spot Lashes™ to fall off.

In fact, many clients fall asleep during the procedure.
