Your Safety is Priority Number One

     The recent rise in the popularity of eyelash extensions has been truly phenomenal.  How wonderful it is that women all over the world are now able to have the eyelashes they have always dreamed of.  Unfortunately, as the popularity of eyelash extensions has increased, so has the number of substandard and unsafe lash applications being performed and unsafe products being marketed.  In addition, there is also a disturbing trend of inferior application techniques being taught by unqualified individuals, as well as,  people teaching themselves the technique by watching a DVD! 
     The Lash Bar takes pride in being Arizona's first eyelash extensions salon and are very proud and protective of the reputation we have worked so hard to establish.  Our promise to you is that we will never be tempted to "short change" our clients or risk their health just to follow trends or keep up with the "lofty claims" of other less-qualified  individuals who claim to have "raised the bar" in this industry. The health and safety of your eyes and eyelashes will always be our number one priority- no matter what.  We will never offer any service such as heavy crystals or extensions exceeding .20mm in thickness, which are so heavy that they put the long term health of your lashes at risk.  

     Check back soon as we will be posting many articles discussing the effects of weight  and stress on your lash hair follicles and how they can actually cause your natural lashes to fall out prematurely!

 Crystals placed on top of eyelashes- long term

     If crystals are attached to an eyelash for an extended period of time,  they will burden the eyelash follicle . In addition, the width of a crystal makes it so it must  be attached to more than one lash in order to stay in place.  Lashes that are bonded together  will also SHED together- causing a "clump" of . Crystals may only be worn on a short term basis for special events and should be removed immediately afterwards.
