What is a common effect of using low-quality eyelash extensions?

Using low-quality eyelash extensions is associated with an increased risk of irritation or damage to natural lashes. This is primarily because low-quality materials, such as poorly manufactured synthetic fibers or adhesives, may not be safe for long-term wear. They can trigger allergic reactions or sensitivities, leading to irritations like redness, itching, or swelling of the eyelids and surrounding areas.

Furthermore, these low-quality extensions may lack the necessary characteristics to bond properly with natural lashes, potentially leading to premature shedding or breakage of the natural lashes themselves. High-quality extensions are designed to be lightweight and flexible, allowing for a natural look and feel without putting undue stress on the natural lashes. On the other hand, inferior extensions may be heavier and less adaptable, increasing the likelihood of damage.

In contrast, lower quality products don't contribute to a faster application time or long-lasting results, nor do they leave the application process unaffected—the consequences are directly related to the health of the natural lashes and the comfort of the client.
