Enhance your natural lashes with a lash lift and tint at Westhaven Aesthetics, creating a lifted, darker, and fuller appearance. This treatment is perfect for straight, sparse, or light-colored lashes and can help address drooping, thinning, and uneven lash length for a refreshed, low-maintenance look.
Curl and darken your natural lashes
A lash lift and tint is a semi-permanent treatment that curls and darkens your natural lashes, giving them a longer, fuller appearance without needing extensions. The lash lift gently lifts the lashes from the root while the tint adds rich color for a mascara-like effect. This simple, low-maintenance solution lasts 6-8 weeks and enhances the shape and definition of your eyes. This treatment is perfect for anyone looking for an effortlessly polished and eye-opening look, but it’s ideal for individuals with straight, light, or short lashes.
Lash lift/tint treats:
- Straight or downward-facing lashes
- Light-colored or pale lashes
- Sparse or thinning lashes
- Uneven or short lashes
- Lashes lacking natural curl or definition
How does a lash lift/tint work?
Lash lifting
A lash lift involves applying a perming solution that reshapes the structure of your lashes. This solution contains chemicals that break down the disulfide bonds in the keratin proteins of the lashes, allowing them to be molded into a new shape. Once the lashes are positioned onto a silicone rod that determines the level of curl, the solution enables the lashes to reform into this lifted position. The process is followed by a setting lotion that re-establishes the bonds, locking the lashes into their new, elevated shape.
Lash tinting
Lash tinting works by applying a safe, semi-permanent vegetable-based dye to the lashes to enhance their color and definition. The tint is applied to each lash, ensuring full coverage from base to tip. This dye penetrates the outer layer of the hair, providing a rich, darker shade that makes the lashes appear fuller and more prominent. Tinting is especially effective for those with naturally light or pale lashes, and the color typically lasts for several weeks. The process is non-invasive, giving you a mascara-like look without daily application.
Benefits of lash lift/tint:
- Enhances natural lashes without extensions
- Lasts 6-8 weeks with minimal maintenance
- Creates a lifted, curled lash effect for brighter eyes
- Darkens and defines lashes for a fuller appearance
- Eliminates the need for daily curling or mascara application
- Safe for all lash types, including short or sparse lashes
You may be an ideal candidate for lash lift/tint if:
- You have straight, light, or sparse lashes
- You want to enhance your lashes without extensions
- You prefer low-maintenance beauty routines
- You are not allergic to perming solutions or tinting dyes
- You are in good overall eye health with no infections or conditions like conjunctivitis
- You do not have sensitive eyes or a history of eye irritation from beauty treatments
What happens during the treatment?
During your lash lift/tint, a technician will first cleanse your lashes. Next, a silicone rod is applied to your eyelid, and your lashes are lifted onto the rod. A perming solution is applied to break down the lash bonds and reshape them into a curled position. After a set time, a neutralizing solution locks the curl in place. Once the lift is complete, a semi-permanent tint is brushed onto your lashes, giving them a darker appearance. The process takes 45 to 60 minutes.
Does the lash lift and tint damage your natural lashes?
No, when performed correctly, a lash lift and tint should not damage your natural lashes. The solutions are formulated to be safe for the hair and surrounding skin. However, like any beauty treatment, overuse or improper application can cause stress to the lashes. It’s recommended to wait 6 to 8 weeks between treatments to give your lashes time to recover naturally.
How long does a lash lift and tint last?
A lash lift and tint typically lasts 6 to 8 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle. Since your lashes naturally shed and regenerate, the lifted and tinted appearance will gradually fade as new lashes grow in. You can schedule follow-up treatments every couple of months.
