Lash lifts and lash extensions are two popular beauty treatments that enhance the appearance of the eyelashes, but they are different in several ways.
Lash lifts, also known as eyelash perming, are a semi-permanent treatment that curls your natural lashes upward to create the illusion of longer, fuller lashes. The procedure involves using a chemical solution to break down the bonds in your lashes, and then a silicone rod is placed on your eyelid to lift your lashes from the base. Once your lashes are in the desired position, a neutralizing solution is applied to set the curl.
Lash extensions, on the other hand, involve applying individual synthetic or natural hair fibers to your natural lashes with a special adhesive.
The extensions are applied one by one, and can be customized to create a specific look, such as natural or dramatic. Lash extensions can last for several weeks, but require touch-ups every few weeks as your natural lashes shed and the extensions fall out.
In summary, lash lifts are a way to enhance your natural lashes by curling them, while lash extensions involve adding synthetic or natural hair fibers to your lashes to create a fuller, more dramatic look.
