5 Ways Lash Extensions Can Make Summer Even More Fun

Have you ever admired a child’s long, lustrous eyelashes and wished yours were the same? While some of us may not have been born with naturally long, beautiful eyelashes, many of us were and they have just faded a bit over time. Or maybe our lighter skin tone and hair color simply mean that our lashes are not quite as dark or thick as we may desire. And so we do what we always do when we want to enhance a desirable beauty feature: we spend hours and hours in front of the mirror, applying mascara, eyeliner, and eyeshadow in order help make our eyes pop the way we want them to. But maybe there is a faster, easier way to achieve the look we want this summer–through eyelash extensions.

Eyelash Extensions This Summer

During the summertime, we often want a natural looking beauty that is easy to achieve and very easy to maintain. This means that you don’t want to spend hours in front of the mirror, making your eyelashes and your eyes stand out, or reapplying the mascara and eye makeup you have sweat off or washed off in the pool. This is where eyelash extensions come in handy, and following are just five ways that eyelash extensions can help to make your summer even more fun:

1. Professionally applied eyelash extensions look natural. Professional eyelash extensions are not a strip of eyelashes applied to the lid that is bulky and obvious, but rather are individual extensions that are applied to your natural eyelashes one at a time with special bonding agents, great care, and precision. This makes your lashes look thicker and longer, naturally, and without spending endless amounts of time enhancing them every day.
    
2. Professionally applied eyelash extensions won’t run or fall out during your summer activities. Unlike mascara and eye makeup, eyelash extensions aren’t ruined by water, sleep or exercise. This means that you can enjoy cool showers, dips in the ocean, pool parties, strenuous exercise, and more without worrying about how your lashes are holding up. I recommend that clients get their extensions filled about every two weeks to ensure that lashes continue to look full and beautiful.
    
3. Professionally applied eyelash extensions can make your face appear younger. There is nothing we desire more than to appear more youthful and vibrant, especially during the bright, warm summer months. Eyelash extensions draw more positive attention to our eyes, making them appear bigger and brighter, which in turn makes our face appear more youthful and vibrant.
    
4. Professional eyelash extensions are easy to apply. Eyelash extensions don’t hurt when applied correctly and only take between an hour and an hour and a half to apply, depending on the exact look that you are going for. This is far less time than would be spent applying eye makeup on a daily basis, which means you can spend more time enjoying summer activities outside.
    
5. Professionally applied eyelash extensions can be customized to whatever look you desire. There is definitely no one-size-fits-all mandate when it comes to eyelash extensions, which means you can have fun creating whatever summer look you desire–and perhaps even two entirely different summer looks (one for the beginning of the summer and one for the end of the summer).

In order to enjoy the many wonderful benefits of eyelash extensions, it is important that you seek out a professional who has training and experience in the field. After all, they must be able to precisely place each individual extension on each individual lash without allowing the lashes to stick together or the bonding agent to touch your eyelid. The correct application of eyelash extensions does not in any way damage your natural eyelashes or impair their growth, which is important to your overall eye health and appearance.
