Sensitive eyes do not automatically rule out lash extensions, but a proper consultation is essential. Adhesive, pads, tape, cleansers and fumes can all cause irritation. Tell your lash artist before the appointment if you have known allergies, current redness or an eye condition.
Are lash extensions safe for sensitive eyes?
Sensitive eyes do not automatically rule out lash extensions, but a proper consultation is essential. Adhesive, pads, tape, cleansers and fumes can all cause irritation. Tell your lash artist before the appointment if you have known allergies, current redness or an eye condition.
A reputable studio will not simply continue if your eyes are already irritated. Sometimes postponing the appointment is the safer choice.
What to consider
- Mention allergies and previous reactions before the appointment.
- Do not book a lash appointment while you have an acute eye inflammation.
- Tell Sarah if you wear contact lenses or use eye drops.
- Seek medical advice for pain, swelling or changes in vision.
Sarah's advice in Graz
Sarah prefers to discuss sensitivities in advance. It is a simple step that protects your eyes and makes the treatment calmer.
