Your Safety is Priority Number One!
The recent rise in the popularity of eyelash extensions has been truly phenomenal. How wonderful it is that women all over the world are now able to have the eyelashes they have always dreamed of. Unfortunately, as the popularity of eyelash extensions has increased, so has the number of substandard and unsafe lash applications being performed and unsafe products being marketed. In addition, there is also a disturbing trend of inferior application techniques being taught by unqualified individuals, as well as, people teaching themselves by watching a DVD!
Bend Lash Studio takes pride in being Central Oregon's #1 eyelash extensions salon and are very proud and protective of the reputation we have worked so hard to establish. Our promise to you is that we will never be tempted to "short change" our clients or risk their health just to follow trends or keep up with the lofty claims of others who claim to have "raised the bar" in this industry. The health and safety of your eyes and eyelashes will always be our number one priority- no matter what. We will never offer any service such as heavy crystals or extensions exceeding .20mm in thickness, which are so heavy that they put the long term health of your lashes at risk.
Product Safety Bulletin from Lavish Lashes, LLC
.25-30mm density semi-permanent eyelash extensions - all colors and lengths.
While these lashes that were released in 2007 in the United States have gained popularity, Lavish Lashes has listed this product as Non-Approved in that based on current studies the eyelashes are too heavy to attach to the natural eyelash. These lashes may over burden the follicle and may contribute to premature eyelash loss.
Swarovski Eyelash Crystals - all styles
If these products are attached to the eyelash they will burden the eyelash follicle for an extended period of time. As this product is recommended to be applied with semi-permanent eyelash extension adhesive these crystals will remain on the eyelash for an extended period of time and may possibly contribute to premature eyelash loss. Exception to this policy may apply if crystals are to be worn on a short term basis for special events, etc. Crystals should not be adhered to the natural eyelash for a period exceeding 24 hours.
"FDA Approved" Eyelash Extension Adhesive
This product as of the date of this notice 10/09/2007 does not in fact exist. Regardless of claims by certain manufacturers and distributors in the United States the FDA does not currently regulate eyelash extension adhesive and this "FDA Approved Status" does not exist.
Consumer/Retail Home Use Self Application Eyelash Extensions
These products have gained much popularity in the past year with the advertisements on You Tube and other sources across the internet. These products include an adhesive that should never be "self applied". Without the proper training regarding consumers may not be aware of the risks associated with these products when misapplied. Incorrect use may result in serious injury. If you are a consumer and have considered purchasing these products it is suggested you speak with a licensed professional about the inherent risks associated with these products. You may also contact our main office at 951-352-2068 with any questions you may have in regards to these products.
