Each month I will select a 1-2 questions received to the boutique. Usually by email, but some do come in the traditional mail as well. Thanks for all who send questions! Below are two of the most recent questions. Have a question of your own? Submit it here. Q. Debbie in Houston asked: How do I take care of Eyelash Extensions? A. Your new Eyelash Extensions are long, thick and beautiful! Once applied, they last up to 1.5 months. Best of all, they are easy to maintain. Chic Lash Boutique will give you a detailed easy care maintenance manual following your procedure. In addition, here are some quick and easy tips:

• Use caution when washing your eyes and showering for 24 hours after lash application. Do not swim or spa for 48 hours after lash application to allow adequate time for bonding.
• Be gentle with your lashes.
• Avoid rubbing your eyes.
• Avoid oil-based and waterproof mascara. Water based mascara and water based mascara remover may be used. Use mascara sparingly and gently remove mascara with water-based eye makeup remover. Apply mascara on the tips only.

We recommend getting your eyelash extensions touched up every two to three weeks. Q. Trisha from Greater Heights asked: Can you describe the eyelash extension application process? A. You will be comfortably reclined on a Tempurpedic bed with your eyes closed while our technician applies your eyelash extensions, individually to your natural eyelashes. The process generally takes between 60 to 120 minutes to apply one set of Eyelash Extensions. The procedure is so relaxing and comfortable that many of our clients fall asleep! Touch ups can be done in as little as 15 to 45 minutes. To help make the procedure even more pleasant, we offer free mimosas and wine!
