What styles of Eyelash Extensions can I get in Erie?

At Lash and Company Erie, a wide array of Eyelash Extension styles are offered to please different tastes: Classic Extensions for the minimally made-up look; Hybrid Extensions that combine classic with volume techniques; Volume Extensions to provide a daring, full lash line; and Lash Lift and Tint as a natural lash enhancement alternative.

What is a Mini Fill, and when is it recommended?

The Mini Fill is a quick maintenance treatment designed to refresh your Eyelash Extensions 7–10 days after the last appointment. It fills the gap between regular fills and is best for special occasions or last-minute touch-ups.

When should a full Eyelash Extension fill be done?

A full fill is generally required every 2 to 3 weeks to replace lost extensions and maintain volume. The timing may vary based on your lash growth cycle and home care routine.

Can Eyelash Extensions damage natural lashes?

No, when applied by our lash artists, Eyelash Extensions are safe and do not damage natural lashes. Each lash is carefully isolated to protect the lash line and prevent premature shedding.

What are the aftercare instructions for Eyelash Extensions?

To extend the life of your lashes: avoid using oil-based products around the eyes, never rub or tug on your extensions, use an eyelash-safe cleanser, and brush your extensions gently each day with a clean spoolie.

Lash Extensions vs. Lash Lifts: What’s Right for You?

Long, elevated, and voluminous lashes are big and considered a must-have in the world of beauty. But to truly achieve that eye-opening effect, there are just two big professional treatments: Lash extensions or a lash lift.

More often than not, we get asked at Lash and Company Erie which is better. Truth be told, they do offer different benefits depending on your natural lashes, lifestyle, and final goals. Therefore, in this blog, we will gear you towards choosing between either depending on what suits your beauty goal best.

Lash Extensions vs. Lash Lifts

What Are Lash Extensions?

Lash extensions literally attach individual synthetic, silk, or mink fibers to your real lashes with a semi-permanent glue. Thereby adding length, curl, and volume to make it appear fuller and darker than it naturally would-almost like no mascara!

Lash extensions can offer:

Immediate volume and length: Those with short or sparse lashes will appreciate this benefit.
Customizable styles: Opt for any of the styles, Classic or Volume or Hybrid, depending on your desired look.
Wakeup ready: Skip on mascara and lash curlers.

Best For:

Clients looking for dramatic transformations
Those preparing for events or for a vacation
Those with healthy, natural eyelashes looking to enhance them

At Lash and Company Erie, our certified technicians work with fully customizable eyelash extension services to suit your eye shape and natural lash line.

What Is a Lash Lift?

Consider it a perm for your natural eyelashes. It curls and lifts each lash from its base, providing an open-eyed effect while drawing attention to the lashes, without actually providing any extensions.

Mostly combined with a lash tint, it is a great alternative to enhancing what you already have in a very low-maintenance manner.

Benefits of Lash Lifts:

Low-maintenance: Unlike extensions, no need for refills or ongoing upkeep
Natural look: For those who like a subtle enhancement
Safe and gentle: No adhesives or fake lashes involved
Long-lasting results: Last for 6–8 weeks

Best For:

Customers with long, straight, or downward-growing lashes
Those who want to avoid maintenance for lash extensions

Those who want a more natural lift that appears similar to mascara

Key Differences Between Lash Extensions and Lash Lift

Feature	Lash Extensions	Lash Lift
Material Used	Synthetic fibers glued to natural lashes	Setting solution applied to natural lashes
Look	Thicker, longer, and dramatic	Better curl and lift of their own
Maintenance	Requires fill-ups once every 2 to 3 weeks	No fills necessary; lasts for 6 to 8
Time for Appointment	1.5–2 hours for full set	45–60 minutes
Good For	Short, sparse, or light lashes	Long, healthy, natural lashes
Upkeep	Regular fills, aftercare expenses	Minimal upkeep

Which One Should You Choose?

The right lash treatment depends upon your preferences and the natural condition of the eyelashes.

Choose Lash Extensions if:

• You want an instantly fuller, longer lash look

• You wear eye makeup frequently or want to skip mascara altogether

• You don’t mind regular maintenance for a glamorous payoff

Choose Lash Lifts if:

• Prefer a more all-natural, no-fuss look

• Have long lashes but want them to be more visibly curled and lifted

• Want a lower-maintenance solution without having to do touch-ups

Still unsure? Our lash experts at Lash and Company Erie can help you decide during a personalized consultation. We will assess your lash type, lifestyle, and beauty goals and then recommend the most suitable service.
