"Count Down to Prom" As Seen on Paris Hilton, Make Beautiful Eyelashes Yours for Prom!

Eyelash Extensions for Prom

What is all of young, trendy Hollywood batting their eyelashes at? Nothing in particular, but they have all caught on to the hottest trend to come out of the makeup industry in years!

Eyelash Extensions are carefully applied individual lashes that are glued onto your existing, natural eyelashes. They last anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks and come in a range of styles to suit your own unique mood:

Natural - This look adds definition to your eyes and perfectly frames them; but look totally natural.

Dramatic - Think J Lo or Paris Hilton; these two lovely ladies wear them thick, long and with confidence for that “Bambi doe-eyed look”. Perfect for weddings or Prom, or any special occasion.

Extending - For those of us that received the “short end of the stick” literally! These long, feathery eyelashes extend your not-so-long natural eyelashes to give you a look as though you’re wearing mascara - but won’t be!

Eyelashes are the perfect way to enhance your eyes and make them “pop” for your graduation ceremonies and Prom. Applied after your makeup application, eyelash extensions complete your perfect prom look.

Le Petit Spa offers a student discount to clients who receive eyelash extensions or any other spa service for teens at Le Petit Spa.

Eyelash Extension and Pictures of Eyelash Extension

Mascara need not apply! The latest beauty craze in Hollywood will give your eyes an excuse to bat their lashes at anyone, or about anything!

As seen on Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan, Hollywood has caught onto why Eyelash Extensions are an easy way to obtain a polished yet natural look. Each individual lash is gently glued onto your existing eyelashes. The process takes about an hour and they can last from 2 to 4 weeks depending on how frequently you remove and apply your makeup.

Client’s can choose from three different degrees of intensity depending on their mood and style:

1. Naturalthe look is soft, yet defined. Ideal for women who do not wear mascara but would like the definition that mascara provides.

2. Dramaticthink Bambi! This look is for the adventurous, special occasions (think hot date!) or anyone who wants a sexy, lush set of lashes.

3. Extending – Long, luxurious lashes are yours!

What if I have blond or light eyelashes?

Natural redheads and blonds may find themselves with lighter or blond eyelashes, but they still can enjoy the benefits of long, thick, more defined sexy lashes. Eyelash Tinting is a service that uses natural ingredients to gently tint eyelashes for up to 4 weeks. This service is recommended to anyone that has light eyelashes before an application of Eyelash Extensions is applied.

How long will Eyelash Extensions last?

Eyelash Extensions will last from 2 to 4 weeks depending on the client’s lifestyle. A client’s Eyelash Extensions who applies makeup (mascara and/or eyeliner) and washes it off on a daily basis will not last as long as a client who does not wear mascara on a daily basis.

What do I do if they start to fall out?

Overtime we naturally shed our eyelashes just as we do with hair. This means that some of your extensions will fall out when your eyelashes naturally shed themselves. Any spa that offers Eyelash Extensions on their menu should offer an Eyelash Extension Fix service on their menu to help their clients keep up the look of their Eyelash Extensions.
