Hi Geeks,

I thought I'd put this thread up as there has been some confusion lately about the different types of lashes. I've added pitures from google because I haven't done that bit yet on my website but the following is from my site. It is aimed at clients but it's in plain English so I'm hoping it will clear up any confusion between us. Feel free to input anything!

Cluster Lashes - These are also known as Party lashes. These are a small cluster of lashes, usually about 3, with a little bulb on the end. They are applied with a temporary adhesive to the lash line (these may touch the skin without a reaction). These usually last a few days. These can be removed easily at home.

Strip Lashes - These are lashes which are found in a strip that is placed along the length of the lash line with a temporary adhesive. These are usually worn for a special occasion and only last a few days at most. These can be removed easily at home.

Express Lashes - These are individual eyelash extensions which are applied on top of your natural lashes by a qualified technician with a strong adhesive. These MUST be removed by your technician 2 weeks after being applied. This is to avoid damage to your natural lashes. These take around 45 mins to an hour to apply, hence the name.

I don't have a picture...can someone help please? :)

Semi-permanent Lashes - These are individual eyelash extensions which are applied by isolating each of your lashes and having one lash applied to each of your natural ones. This takes approximately 90 mins to 2 hours. This method allows for infills every 2 - 3 weeks to keep your lashes looking full as they fall out with your natural lash cycle. These do not damage our natural lashes. These MUST be removed by your technician if you would like them removed. Please do not pull them as the adhesive used is very strong and will more than likely pull out your natural lashes too.
