Lash Extensions at DAELA Portland

Lash extensions are individual synthetic fibers that are carefully attached to your natural lashes to create the appearance of longer, fuller, and more defined lashes. Every set is customized based on your eye shape, natural lash health, and desired style.

Most clients enjoy their lash extensions for 2–4 weeks before needing a fill appointment. Because your natural lashes shed as part of their normal growth cycle, regular maintenance appointments are recommended to keep your lashes looking full and fresh.

Most clients schedule lash fills every 2–3 weeks. The ideal timing depends on your natural lash cycle, lifestyle, and the fullness of your desired look.

You should come in while you have at least 50% of your extensions to qualify for fill pricing!

When properly applied and maintained, lash extensions should not damage healthy natural lashes. Our artists carefully select extension lengths and weights that are appropriate for your natural lashes and prioritize long-term lash health.

• Classic Lashes use one extension per natural lash for a soft, natural enhancement.
• Hybrid Lashes combine classic and volume techniques for added texture and fullness.
• Volume Lashes use lightweight fans of multiple extensions on each natural lash to create a fuller, more dramatic look.
• Your artist can help determine which style best fits your goals during your consultation.

Most clients find they no longer need mascara. If mascara is used, it should be extension-safe and applied only to the tips. Waterproof mascara is generally not recommended, as it can shorten the lifespan of your extensions.

To maximize retention, avoid getting your lashes wet for the first 24 hours, cleanse them regularly with a lash-safe cleanser, avoid oil-based products around the eyes, and refrain from rubbing or pulling on your lashes.

Many clients with sensitive eyes successfully wear lash extensions. During your appointment, let your artist know about any sensitivities, allergies, or previous reactions so we can help determine if lash extensions are a good fit for you.

A full set typically takes between 1.5 and 3 hours, depending on the style selected and the condition of your natural lashes. Fill appointments are generally shorter.

Lash extensions are a great option for anyone looking to enhance their natural lashes, simplify their beauty routine, or achieve a more polished appearance without daily mascara. During your consultation, your artist will evaluate your natural lashes and discuss the best options for your goals.

Yes. Once your lashes have fully cured, you can return to your normal activities, including swimming, exercising, and traveling. Proper aftercare and regular cleansing will help maintain the best retention.
