Eyelash Lift/Perm Course
Relaxing a lash lift

When would you perform this service?

Sometimes a lash lift may turn out curlier than the client likes. When this happens, you can relax the lash lift. This does come with the risk of potentially ''frying" the client's lashes though so if they already have brittle, fine, or blonde lashes, beware that relaxing a lash lift may leave them with crazy-looking fried lashes. This service should be performed rarely.

  • Step 2: Apply Lift/Perm Step 1 Solution

    • Apply Lift Solution to lashes with a mascara wand and continue running the mascara wand throughout the lashes for 3-5 minutes. You are telling the lashes where they will be now so it is important to continue running the mascara wand throughout the whole time.

    • Clean the entire eye area thoroughly with wet cotton rounds until all solution is gone.

    • Rinse the eye area. 

      • This is an important safety step: Before they open, ask the client to turn their head to one side, hold a tissue at their temple, and rinse the eye with saline solution. Repeat on the other side.  

    • Ask the client to open their eyes.

    • If there is any burning or stinging, rinse the eyes again until all stinging is gone.
