How long they last
How long do lash extensions last?
It depends on your natural lash cycle and your care at home. That's why the fill is due within 3 weeks.
How often do I need a fill?
If you come back within 3 weeks, I do a fill. After that, it's a full set.
Booking and the deposit
How do I book?
You book online: you pick the service and a slot, and pay a deposit that comes off the total. While you pay, I hold that slot for about 30 min.
How much is the deposit?
It's 30 % of the service price and it comes off the total. For Classic, which costs from $1,200 MXN, the deposit is $360 MXN.
Before and after your appointment
Do you do a patch test?
For Classic, Hybrid, Volume, Mega volume, and Lash lift, if it's your first appointment with me, I'll do a patch test 24 to 48 h before. It doesn't rule out a reaction.
What do I do before my appointment?
For Classic, Hybrid, Volume, Mega volume, and Lash lift: arrive with clean lashes and no eye makeup. No waterproof mascara or curler for 2 days before. If you wear contact lenses, bring your case so you can take them out.
For Removal: arrive with no eye makeup.
How do I care for them after the appointment?
For Classic, Hybrid, Volume, and Mega volume: keep them dry for 24 h. Avoid steam, sauna and oil based products near the eyes. Brush them every morning with a clean spoolie. No mascara or curler.
For Lash lift: keep them dry and makeup free for 24 h. Avoid sleeping face down the first night. After that, brush them every morning.
For Removal: you can get them wet right away. If you notice irritation, let me know.
The studio
Where is the studio?
I work in my home studio in Mexico City, on my own and with one client at a time. The exact address comes with your confirmed appointment, once your deposit clears.
What days do you work?
I work Tuesday to Saturday, 10:00 to 19:00. You can book at least 12 h ahead and up to 8 weeks out.
Do you sell products to care for your extensions?
In the shop I have the same products I use in the studio. I hand them to you at your appointment with no delivery fee, or ship them to you for $150 MXN.
