Eyelash Extensions in Harrisburg, PA | Blushy Bunny Lash & Wax Studio

Eyelash extensions typically last between 2–4 weeks, depending on your lash growth cycle and how well you maintain them. Each natural lash sheds every 60–90 days, taking its extension with it, so regular refills every 2–3 weeks help keep your set looking full and even. With proper cleansing and care, your retention will be longer, and your lashes will stay healthy between fills. 

It’s best to skip mascara entirely. Extensions are designed to eliminate the need for mascara and give you that full, dark lash look every day. Mascara — especially waterproof formulas — can cause buildup, clumping, and premature shedding. That means damage to your natural lashes. Even wearing mascara on only the lower lashes is not recommended, as every time you blink, the mascara is getting on your extensions. 

No, the eyelash extension application process is not painful! Many people fall asleep during their appointment if we are not chatting the entire time.

Please arrive with clean, makeup-free eyes. Remove all eye makeup, skincare products, and oils from the lash area. Avoid caffeine right before your appointment, as it can cause fluttering eyes, and don’t use lash curlers or serums that morning. Clean lashes allow for the best adhesive bond and the longest-lasting results. 

Yes! When applied correctly using proper adhesive and isolation techniques, lash extensions will not damage your natural lashes. At Blushy Bunny, I focus on lash health — never overloading or using lengths too heavy for your natural lash line. My goal is a balanced, full, and safe application that enhances your lashes beautifully. It is very important for the health of your natural lashes to follow all aftercare for eyelash extensions outside of your appointments. 

I cure each lash extension as they are applied, meaning you can get your lashes wet immediately after your appointment without waiting 24 hours as you would need to with traditional methods. Maintain your lashes by cleansing daily with a lash-safe cleanser and avoiding oil-based products. Refrain from touching, rubbing, tugging, or sleeping face-down to help your lashes stay perfectly placed. A detailed aftercare for eyelash extensions list can be found right above this FAQ section!

 Yes! In fact, I recommend using an oil-free lash serum that’s safe for extensions. It helps condition and strengthen your natural lashes, supporting long-term health and better retention over time. It is important to remember that any time you start or stop using a serum, it can affect your hair cycle and extension retention.

We’ll discuss your goals and lash type at your appointment to choose the perfect style for you.

 For the best retention and to keep your natural lashes healthy, it is essential to follow all aftercare for eyelash extensions. Keep your lashes clean, do not touch your extensions with your fingers, avoid oil-based products, sleep on your back, and schedule refills every 2–3 weeks. Consistent maintenance keeps your lashes looking flawless and helps avoid gaps as your natural lashes shed. 

 At Blushy Bunny Lash & Wax Studio, I use the Aura Monaco Beam Light Arctica system, an advanced UV LED curing technology designed specifically for eyelash extensions. Unlike traditional lash glue that air-dries, Beam Light adhesive cures instantly under a soft, controlled LED light. This creates an incredibly strong, flexible bond that minimizes fumes, sensitivity, and wait time — while giving you better retention.
