 2. The Lashes Are Fused TogetherIf your lashes are fused together, then sorry to be the bearer of bad news ― no amount of cleaning them will fix the problem. Your only option is to get a keratin lash lift, which uses cysteine. The perming agent in this treatment removes the frizz and kinks from your lashes. Cysteine raises your lash’s pH level and opens the hair scales. This gently lifts and separates them. Since cysteine is activated by heat, the moment the pressure is released, the lashes return to their natural state. After infusing them with a keratin treatment, the lashes get their strength back and become hydrated. After a few weeks, you can try your lash perm kit again. This brings us to our next mistake and how you can avoid it: 3. The Lashes Are Crossed and CrinkledThis mistake usually happens when the adhesive is removed and the second solution is applied. Any glue residue left behind might cause the rest of the treatment to go wrong. Here’s what you should do:
In most cases, it’s always the glue that causes the problem. So, be extra careful with it and everything will be alright. 4. The Silicone Pads Are Not Sticking ProperlyIf this happens and you still continue with your lash lift then it’s possible that you might accidentally rip off your eyelashes. The silicone pads keep moving because your eyelids were not cleaned properly. The oil residue makes the surface slippery and as a result, you might also face inconsistency when applying the adhesive. Another solution you can use any tape you have on your eyelid and apply the glue and pads on it, in this way you will protect your eyelid from the glue, it's more easy to apply the pads and have more control. 5. The Curl Looks UnevenPreviously, we mentioned that if the glue is not applied and removed properly, the lashes might over curl or look crinkled. Another mistake that destroys the shape of your lashes is the placement of the lifting pad. If the pad is placed below the lash line, then the lashes will curl just from the tips. The pad should be placed right on the lash line so that all the lashes are curled evenly. 6. The Lashes Didn't LiftMost people rush through the process, which is why their lashes don’t curl properly. The two solutions that should be given extra attention and time are the adhesive and the perm lotion. If any of these solutions are removed too early, the lashes don’t absorb the ingredients properly. If this happens, wait for a week and then try again. However, this time make sure that you apply the solution properly. Note: If your lashes are thick, it doesn’t mean that you should over apply the solution. This will again destroy the lift. 7. How to Fix Over Permed Eyelashes
When using the lash lift kit, the key to getting long natural lashes is to take your time and follow instructions to the letter. Some of these mistakes can be easily fixed as mentioned above. As for the ones that cause too much damage, only time will fix them. The good news is that even if your lash lift goes wrong, it won’t do any lasting damage. Refrain from speeding up the healing process with DIY hacks. Wipe them with the cleanser one more time and let the lashes breathe for a month. To get your hands on a lash perm kit, visit the website Nicky Lashes. Their Home Edition Kit offers an easy and safe method of getting beautiful lashes at home that last for 8 WEEKS.
In my experience, the majority of lash lifts don’t work out because the perming solution isn’t timed right. You could have issues due to lash placement, tools that won’t stick, or using the wrong curling rod. Lash lifts are a non-invasive beauty treatment with big results —sometimes too big! Has your lash lift gone wrong? If yes, you’re probably seeing over-curling, frizzing, and breaking lashes. Yikes!!! I’ve been getting lash lifts for more than 4-years and know that undoing lash lift damage takes patience and some know-how. Luckily, you can fix your lashes with a little TLC and the right products. Here we’ll talk about how to fix a lash lift gone wrong and explore:
Whether you’re new to lash lifts, or a lash lift pro, knowing how to remedy a bad lash lift makes a big difference. Don’t go through life with frizzy or clumpy lashes. Instead, take control and find a lasting lash solution that works for you. What is a lash lift?A lash lift makes your eyelashes appear longer, fuller and curled. Much like a hair perm or lash perm, your lash lift is achieved through chemical application and a curling tool. This leaves lashes permanently altered until they grow out or are treated again. Lash lifts are a great alternative to false lashes or lash extensions, but they’re not without fault. If the chemical solution is left on too long, lashes become over-processed. The result is frizzy or over curled lashes, which don’t achieve the desired effect of long healthy lashes. Worst case scenarios & fixes to a bad lash liftThere’s more than one way a lash lift can go wrong, and fortunately, there’s also more than one solution to a bad lash lift. Some bad lash lift scenarios you might encounter, include: #1 Lash lift didn’t workThere’s nothing more frustrating than finishing a beauty treatment, only to find it didn’t work. If your lash lift didn’t produce the desired result, it could be because the perming solution wasn’t left on long enough. Another common reason for a failed lift is too much glue. Lash adhesive blocks the solution from bonding to the hairs, this keeps your lashes from perming properly. You can re-perm your lashes, through a salon, or at home, although I recommend leaving it to a professional lash tech. #2 Lashes look too curledSilicone pads moving too often, too much perm solution, or too much time on the clock can all lead to over curled lashes. When your lashes are too curly, it detracts from the purpose of a lash lift—lengthening and volumizing. To fix overly curly lashes, the best solution is a second perm. You may also be able to relax the curl by moisturizing your lashes with a natural oil like castor oil and using your eyelash curler. Before re-treating lashes, prepare them with a protein-removing pad, apply the castor oil from root to tip, and leave overnight. #3 Lashes are fused togetherIf your lashes have fused together, your options for lash renewal are limited, but not hopeless. A keratin perm, using cysteine will strengthen your lashes, helping rectify some of the damage from the original lift. Having your lashes fuse together is a bigger problem. Most professionals will tell you to wait it out, or at least let your lashes rejuvenate before their next perm. A few weeks of rest and relaxation should give your lashes enough bounce to combat a second round of perming. Speak to your esthetician about properly combing each lash out with the spoolie tool. Set a timer for the chemical processing, and the next lift should be less clumpy. #4 Lashes are crossed and crinkledCrinkled lashes are generally a sign that the curling rod wasn’t staying where it was placed. It could also be a sign that lashes weren’t properly combed out over the rod, or that chemical application was uneven. Like other solutions listed above, the best way to redeem a crinkled lash lift is to reset and retry the perm. If your lashes are crinkled because of chemical damage, be sure to moisturize them between treatments. Speak to your lash technician about the straightness of the application and the right-sized curling rod. If you used an at-home lash lift kit, consider asking a friend for help. #5 Silicone pads didn’t stick rightSome silicone pads are stickier than others. This gets problematic when you have a pad that won’t stick. Lashes ping back up off the pad, risking a missed application of the perming solution. There’s also the risk that lashes could move during the perming process. Depending on which pads you use, they may be pre-treated with adhesive. If this is the case, you may need to use extra adhesive to create a sticky surface. If you glued the pads yourself, using more glue and waiting for it to get tacky before placing lashes should do the trick. Don’t be afraid to experiment with pad placement and adhesive. Do lash lifts ruin your lashes?No, a bad lash lift won’t ruin your lashes. It’s important to stay calm and remember that lashes grow back. If you have a bad lash lift, it may not leave you feeling you’re most confident, but it won’t ruin your lashes forever. There are many ways to remedy bad lash lifts, including letting them grow out and starting again. If you’re worried your lashes could be at risk of permanent damage, speak to your lash technician before your appointment. Potential lash lift risksAs with any chemical treatment, even a mild one like a lash lift, there are potential risks involved. You might notice reactions to your lashes, eyelids, or the skin surrounding your eyes. Some of the reactions you may experience following a lash lift include: Irritation or allergic reactionSome people have a bad lash lift because of the natural reaction their bodies have to the chemicals and overall process. This can cause symptoms like:
The reaction could be caused by constantly touching your eyes, the perm or setting solution, or the tools being used. If you have sensitive skin, your risk for rash and other allergic reactions is higher. You may want to avoid chemical lash lifts, or speak to your technician about using the mildest formula, or a reduced setting time. To remedy itchy, dry, or watery eyes, a saline eye drop solution can help. For any rash, you should speak to your doctor. An over-the-counter allergy medicine like Benadryl might help, but it’s best to get a professional medical opinion if allergy symptoms persist. Damage to your natural eyelashesDo lash lifts ruin your lashes? Your lashes can be damaged if the chemical agent is too strong, or if you use the wrong rod during the curling process. Like chemically treating your hair, a lash lift isn’t the best thing to do to your lashes. After the treatment, you may notice your lashes are too curly, brittle, or frizzy. These are all signs of lash damage and should be taken seriously to avoid breakage or eyelash loss. If your lashes are damaged, you can treat your lashes with nourishing natural oil, like castor oil. You may also want to let your lashes rest before attempting any further treatments. Lashes get stressed with touching and processing, and giving them some time to relax could help bring them back to life. Damage to the corneaLash lifts should be applied by certified experts. If the perming solution makes it into your eye, it could result in an ulcer or burn to your cornea. It’s important to keep your eyes closed while undergoing a lash lift. If you get anything in your eyes during your lash lift, tell your aesthetician right away. Chemicals in your eyes should be flushed immediately!!! If you feel persistent burning, speak to your doctor as soon as possible. A chemical burn to the cornea can be serious. Unlike repeating a lash treatment, your cornea can’t be repaired through a second lifting treatment. How do you treat a swollen eyelid after an eyelash lift?YouTuber Makinze (see video below) experienced this exact reaction when she used eyelash glue instead of perming rods to perm her lashes. She recommends reading and following instructions and avoiding putting the glue directly on your eyelid. Most eyelid swelling tends to result from irritation. If your lids do swell, you can treat them with a cold facecloth to reduce inflammation. Avoid rubbing them, and speak to a doctor if you’re concerned the swelling is allergy-based. Keep your hands away from your eyes when possible. How long do lash lifts last?The average lash lift lasts about 6 to 8-weeks. Lash extensions last up to 6-weeks. Comparing the two, the lift offers more bang for your buck with a longer shelf life and lower price point. Your lash lift will last longer if properly cared for. Follow your aesthetician’s instructions for lash lift aftercare to get the longest life out of your lash lift. Lash lift aftercareFollowing an eyelash lift, your lash tech will give you a list of rules to follow. They may change from salon to salon, but generally, follow these rules:
For more details on how to best care for your lashes post lash lift check out “5 Simple Rules for Lash Lift Aftercare.“ General gentleness around your eye area is recommended. Some aestheticians may suggest not sleeping on your stomach for the first night or two as your lashes adjust. Sleeping on your stomach could cause you to press your lashes against your pillow, or rub them in your sleep. Mostly, you’ll hear, “no water”. Wet lashes, even through tears, cause the curl to relax. Key points on lash lifts gone wrongThere are many ways to experience a lash lift gone wrong, both professionally and through at-home treatments. While most issues are mild, some, like chemical burns to the cornea, are quite severe. Treating any physical ailments caused by the lift should be your first priority, followed by aesthetic fixes to the lashes themselves. You can treat your lashes by cleaning, moisturizing, and trying to perm them a second time, or by letting them grow out naturally.
