How long does a typical eyelash extension application take?

The duration of a typical eyelash extension application is generally around 1.5 to 2 hours. This timeframe is necessary to ensure a meticulous and skillful application of each individual lash extension. It allows the technician to carefully isolate each natural lash and attach the extensions with a precise adhesive, ensuring that the lashes look natural and last longer. Proper application also requires attention to detail, as it involves placing extensions in a way that accommodates the natural growth cycle of the client's eyelashes.

While shorter times could indicate a quick service, they may compromise the quality of the application, leading to uneven results or premature shedding of the extensions. Conversely, significantly longer applications could be atypical unless special techniques or additional services are involved. Therefore, the 1.5 to 2 hours benchmark represents a balance between quality and efficiency in the eyelash extension process.
