Lash Lifts in O'Fallon, MO
What is a lash lift?
A lash lift is a revolutionary procedure that can lift, straighten or curl, and lengthen your own natural lashes to create a brighter, fuller, wide eyed look. No need for extensions and the associated aftercare – a lash lift will last you 6-8 weeks and can be combined with a tint so you can leave your mascara behind.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a Lash Lift the same as an eyelash perm?
No! The Lash lift is a new, improved procedure, overcoming the ‘over curled’ look of its predecessor . Whilst the chemical procedure is identical to a perm, the difference is in the results. By ditching the old fashioned perm rollers which curled back the lashes to the extent of the ‘dolly look’, the silicone pads used for this procedure lifts the lash from the root in either a straight or curled, upwards fashion that produces length and a bright eyed enhanced look.
Does the Lash Lift procedure hurt?
No, the procedure is totally painless. You will have your eyes closed for the entire treatment and although it may feel a little strange being unable to open your eyes for this time, it offers you a chance to relax during the treatment.
Is the procedure safe?
Will the Lash Lift damage my natural lashes?
No. Our stylists are trained to use proper lash lifting procedures to ensure your lashes won’t be damaged.
What's the difference between curling my lashes with a curler and a Lash Lift?
There are 2 ways to curl your lashes: physically and chemically. The physical approach is when you use a lash curler or heat to break the weak chemical bonds that make up the protein chains in your lashes. Physically curled lashes relax throughout the day and only last until your lashes get wet or come in contact with heat. Curling your lashes everyday with a lash curler can also break the outer protective sheath of the lashes and make them prone to breakage and look thinner.
The chemical approach, like a lash lift, alters the stronger chemical bonds (disulphide bonds) that make up your lashes and creates a permanent curl until the lashes fall off naturally. During a lash lift, a perm cream is used to break the disulfide bonds and allow keratin molecules to move freely and adjust to their new shape. Then a neutralizing cream is added to reverse the effect of the perm cream. New disulfide bonds form and the keratin molecules are locked into place with a new curled shape. The curl lasts for 6-8 weeks and this process is a healthier alternative for your lashes compared to clamping your lashes everyday with a lash curler.
Can a Lash Lift be used to complement other treatments?
Yes! A Lash Lift is enhanced when you use an eyelash growth product, such as RapidLash. While your lashes grow longer, our process controls straight or overly curly lashes by giving them a uniform lifted look. If added on, a black eyelash tint is applied during the treatment to enhance the look of your lashes.
