Bridal Lash Extensions Vancouver | Prép Beauty Parlour

By | Eyelash Extensions, Lash Care, On Location, Prép Beauty Parlour, Weddings

Lash extensions make wedding prép easy and looks effortless during your honeymoon! Haven’t had lashes before but are curious about how it works?

If you have not had lash extensions before we do recommend coming in 1 month prior and receiving a new set of lashes, then booking a lash fill approximately 3-4 days prior to wedding (or a week max if leaving before hand for destination wedding) incase you would like to make your set more dramatic or less!

We offer 3 different Full lash set’s including classic, mixed and 3D/ russian volume… Confused on which is best? Well there is no right or wrong answer, begin with picking a full-ness (classic is 1 lash per natural lash, 3D/ russian volume is 3 lashes per natural lash and a mixed set is a mix of classic & 3d/russian volume). Once you have picked how full you would like the lashes to be book in for that set, when you come in for your appointment you will customize the length, shape and thickness of the lashes with your master lash tech from Prép Beauty Parlour!

We suggest taking a few screen shots of lashes you like from our Instagram photos and bringing those in with you for your consultation. Do you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergic reactions? Don’t worry.. We offer FREE ALLERGY TESTING! An allergy test takes roughly 5-10 minutes, a master lash tech will apply some adhesive to your skin or a gel pad if needed. Wait 24 hours then call us to either make an appointment or if any type of reaction occurs to come in and have it checked.

Prép Beauty Parlour is located at 1054 Hornby Street in beautiful downtown Vancouver, British Columbia. We specialize in nails, eyelash extensions, waxing, massages, facials, event/bridal hair & makeup. We’d love to hear from you! Email inquiries to [email protected]. Call us at 604-764-6452.

Did You Know Baby Shampoo Damages Your Lash Extensions?

By | Eyelash Extensions, Lash Care, Prép Beauty Parlour

Why shouldn’t i use baby shampoo to clean my lashes if I can clean my brushes with it?

Baby Shampoo

Baby Shampoo

Baby shampoo is inexpensive and you can purchase it at any local grocery store however it is not a professional product and its not recommended for use on lash extensions. It will clean the lashes however the sulphates will breakdown the glue faster, which means lash fills may become a weekly trip.

Did you know baby shampoo contains fragrance, artificial colours and mineral oils? Oil is a big “NO NO” for lashes and can even cause all the extensions to come off of your natural lashes, Oil free baby shampoo also has a added numbing agent “no more tears formula” which will also cause pre mature shedding. Using professional lash extension cleansers such as FacEnvy will prolong and strengthen your lash extensions and natural lashes!

Preparing your lashes for the changing seasons

By | Eyelash Extensions, Lash Care, Prép Beauty Parlour

Fall has officially arrived!! humid weather and not enough sun can definitely effect lash extension retention, this can be worrisome for clients! Keep reading to find out why the lashes shed when the seasons change.

loveyourlashes

Protection:
The biological purpose of hair is to protect us from the sun but we sometimes forget we need to keep our hair protected as well, during the fall months hair sheds much faster than normal and in bigger groups. Sun provides vitamin D and vitamin D is essential to hair growth but during the winter moths vitamin D is not always easily found, meaning our bodies are not absorbing as much as usual and hair loss during this time is imminent.

Vitamin D:
Lack of vitamin D will cause slower lash growth as our bodies are working extra hard to grow hair because the vitamin D is being shared in the body to fight off colds and other common illnesses during this time. Don’t forget to consult a doctor before adding any extra supplements into your diet routine.

Prevention:
Lash shedding season only lasts about 3 weeks! Try taking vitamin D vitamins from your local pharmacy and don’t book longer than 2-3 weeks for your lash fills during the season. You can also use Intelliseal to help protect the bonds and strengthen your natural lashes, or if you would like to take a “lash break” during this time try out Eyenvy to help your lashes grow longer than ever!
