How Long Does Eyelash Tinting Take?

Lash Tinting

Posted by Jennifer Ngo at August 28th, 2024

Getting an eyelash tint is a fast and effective treatment. It’s one of the best ways to achieve a naturally enhanced look without mascara. Here’s what to expect during each step of the lash tinting process, from check-in to walking out with darker, more defined lashes.

How Long Does Eyelash Tinting Take?

Step 1: Client Intake and Consultation

If it’s your first time at the eyelash tinting salon, you’ll begin with a client intake. You’ll fill out a short form that may ask about your skin type, allergies, or previous reactions to tinting; this lets the lash artist know your needs and any potential sensitivities. Afterward, you’ll have a brief consultation with the artist, who will examine your lashes, discuss your beauty goals, and suggest the best tint shade for your look. Key Points to Discuss

Lash color preferences (e.g., a natural dark brown or intense black)
Any sensitivities or allergies
Aftercare tips to ensure you’re set for long-lasting results

Step 2: Preparation for Tinting

After your consultation, it’s time to prep for the tint. Your lash artist will carefully cleanse your lashes to remove any oils, makeup, or residue that could affect the tint’s adherence. Once your lashes are clean, a protective pad is placed along your lower lash line to shield your skin from any stray tint. Some clients find this step slightly unusual, but it’s quick and ensures the best results. Tips for a Comfortable Prep

Keep your eyes closed and relaxed.
Trust your artist to keep everything in place for a clean, mess-free application.

Step 3: Application of the Lash Tint

Now for the main event! The artist will carefully apply the tint to your lashes using a small brush, making sure each lash is fully coated. The tint is then left to process, usually for around 10 minutes, though some lashes may need an extra minute or two to reach the ideal shade. During this time, simply relax and let the dye do its work.

Step 4: Removal and Final Check

Once the tint has been fully processed, the artist will gently remove the dye from your lashes with a damp cloth or cotton pad. They’ll double-check to ensure an even color and that every lash has been tinted to perfection. Afterward, you can look in the mirror to see your beautifully enhanced lashes! Important Lash Tint Aftercare Reminders

Avoid wetting your lashes for 24 hours to allow the tint to be set fully.
Use oil-free cleansers around your eyes to prolong the tint’s vibrancy.

Step 5: Walking Out the Door with Stunning Lashes

In about 15-20 minutes, you’ll be ready to head out the door with darker, fuller-looking lashes. With a lasting effect of about four weeks, an eyelash tint is a low-maintenance option to keep your lashes looking bold and beautiful daily!
