What to expect

You've just had your lash lift, brow lamination, or both. The work is done — the next 24 hours are about keeping the area completely dry and friction-free while the bonds finish setting. This is the part most people get wrong, so read carefully.

Why this matters

The lift or lamination chemically restructures the hair to hold its new shape. That restructuring is still locking in for the first 24 hours after the appointment. Water, steam, sweat, or friction during that window can partially release the bonds and leave you with a less defined result or shorter wear time.

Post care

Keep lashes and brows completely dry for the first 24 hours — avoid any contact with water, including steam, sweat, tears, and cleansers.
After the initial 24 hours, wash with a gentle cleanser and pat dry, avoiding any rubbing.
Sleep on your back to avoid friction on the treated lashes and brows.

Downtime

Skin around the treated area may be pink and tender for up to 24 hours.
Tinting may appear slightly darker immediately after treatment and will soften within 24–48 hours as it sets.

Restrictions

Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area — bonds need time to fully set.
Avoid saunas, steam rooms, hot showers, and swimming for 24 hours.
Avoid mascara, eye makeup, and oil-based products for 24–48 hours.
Avoid lash curlers and eyelash extensions on lifted lashes.

When to call the spa

Contact The Spa if you notice:

Signs of eye infection, swelling, or eye weeping
Any burning, stinging, or persistent irritation around the eyes
Unusual redness or rash in the treated area

Follow up

Treatments are recommended every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain shape and color.

Brow services: brow shaping, waxing, tinting (dye), lamination. Lash services: lash tinting, lash lift. We don't currently offer lash extensions—we focus on services that enhance your natural lashes and brows for low-maintenance daily wear.

What lash and brow services do you offer?

Brow lamination is a chemical treatment that softens and reshapes your brow hairs to lay in a uniform direction—a fuller, brushed-up look. Lasts 6–8 weeks. Microblading is permanent makeup, with pigment deposited via small blade strokes—lasts 1–3 years. Lamination is non-permanent and reversible; microblading is a commitment.

What's the difference between brow lamination and microblading?

Lash lift uses a curling solution to lift your natural lashes upward from the root—the same lift you'd get with a curler, but lasting 6–8 weeks. No daily maintenance, no extensions, no glue. Pair with lash tinting for darker definition. Extensions add length and volume with adhered synthetic lashes; lash lift just enhances what you have.

What is a lash lift and how is it different from extensions?

Lash lift, brow lamination, and tinting are typically maintained every 4 to 6 weeks. Lash tint: 4–6 weeks. Brow tint: 3–5 weeks. Brow wax: 3–4 weeks before regrowth. Most patients schedule on a regular monthly cadence to keep results consistent.

How long do brow and lash services last?

Brow waxing involves brief discomfort during the wax pull—lasts seconds. Tinting and lifting are painless—you'll lie back with eyes closed for the duration. We use professional products designed for the eye area.

Do brow and lash services hurt?

Lash and brow services run $20–$80. Exact pricing for each service (brow wax, lash tint, lash lift, brow lamination, etc.) is available at booking. Members receive discounted pricing.

How much do lash and brow services cost in Lubbock?

Immediately after brow waxing, yes. After tinting or lamination/lift: wait 24 hours so the color/curl sets fully. After 24 hours, normal makeup routine resumes.

Can I wear makeup after a lash or brow service?

Most providers (us included) avoid lash lifts during pregnancy out of caution—the chemicals used haven't been thoroughly studied for pregnancy safety. Brow waxing and tinting can continue if skin isn't reactive. We'll customize at booking.

Can I get a lash lift while pregnant?

Rarely—but possible. We do a patch test before first-time tinting if you've never had it. Patients with very sensitive skin or known allergies to PPD (in hair dye) shouldn't get tinting. Lash lift solutions are generally well-tolerated; we'll test and discuss if you have any sensitivities.
