What to Expect at LyLy Lashes
Congratulations—you’ve just booked your very first lash extension appointment at LyLy Lashes! We’re so thrilled for you. If you’re wondering what the entire process is like and how to best prepare before your appointment, don’t worry—we’ll walk you through everything step by step so you’ll feel confident and relaxed.
A Warm Welcome
As soon as you arrive at LyLy Lashes, you’ll be greeted with a smile by our friendly front-desk team, who are just as excited as you are for your very first lash set! You can take a seat in our cozy waiting area, enjoy a refreshing glass of water, and take a moment to relax while your stylist prepares and sanitizes the treatment room for your service.
Personal Lash Consultation
When it’s time, your lash stylist will invite you into the service area for a one-on-one consultation. This is an important step to ensure you get the safest and most personalized experience possible. You’ll briefly go over your health history to make sure lash extensions are suitable for you. Then comes the fun part—customizing your lash look! Your stylist will explain the different curl types, lengths, and styles so that together, you can create the perfect lash design that complements your eyes and your lifestyle.
Relax and Enjoy
Now the real pampering begins! You’ll lie back on our soft lash bed, designed for comfort, and rest your legs on a supportive cushion. Your natural lashes will be gently cleansed in a soothing lash bath. Then, your stylist will apply cooling under-eye pads to protect your skin and get everything ready for the lash application. Many guests find this part so relaxing that they drift into a peaceful “lash nap”—and we wouldn’t be surprised if you do too!
The Big Reveal
After about 2–3 hours (depending on the style you’ve chosen), it’s time for the exciting moment you’ve been waiting for—the lash reveal! Your stylist will carefully remove the under-eye pads, brush through your lashes one last time, and hand you a mirror. Get ready to see your gorgeous, fresh set of lashes for the very first time—you’ll love the transformation!
Aftercare & Products
Once you’ve admired your new look, your stylist will guide you through the best aftercare practices. They’ll also introduce you to our carefully selected retail products—must-haves that will keep your lash extensions healthy, full, and long-lasting. From lash-safe cleansers to protective coatings, we’ll help you pick the right essentials to protect your investment.
Booking Your Next Visit
Before you leave, we’ll help you schedule your refill appointment to keep your lashes looking perfect. Most guests return every 2–3 weeks for a touch-up, depending on their lash growth cycle.
Walk Out with Confidence
When you step out of LyLy Lashes, you’ll not only look amazing, but you’ll feel more confident than ever. Your new lashes will give you that fresh, flawless look you’ll love waking up to every day. And since you’re officially part of the LyLy Lashes family, don’t forget to ask about our membership options for even more savings and perks!
How to Prepare for Your Appointment
To make sure your first lash experience is as smooth as possible, here are a few simple tips before your visit:
-
Don’t wear contact lenses: Switch to glasses for the day. Your eyes will be closed for a couple of hours, and it’s much more comfortable without contacts.
-
Do wear comfortable clothes: Think cozy sweaters and yoga pants—you’ll be lying down for 2–3 hours, so comfort is key.
-
Don’t drink coffee beforehand: Caffeine can make it harder to relax and keep still during your appointment.
-
Do bring something relaxing: If you don’t think you’ll nap, bring headphones and listen to your favorite playlist, podcast, or audiobook.
-
Don’t wear makeup: Arrive with a clean face, free of eye makeup, creams, or oils. This helps your stylist prepare your lashes quickly and ensures the best results.

🌺 Frequently Asked Questions at LyLy Lashes
Your very first full set usually takes about 2–3 hours, depending on the lash style you choose and the stylist you book with. Don’t worry—refill appointments are much quicker, typically around 1 hour.
The answer is no. Since your eyes will stay closed for quite a while, wearing contacts may cause dryness or irritation. We recommend making it a “glasses day” or bringing your contact case to remove them before your service. You can put them back in right after your appointment.
Just relax and enjoy the moment. You’ll be lying on a cozy lash bed, and you can even bring your headphones to listen to your favorite music, podcast, or audiobook. The application is so light and gentle, you might even drift off into a peaceful lash nap!
Not at all! When done by a skilled LyLy Lashes stylist, the process is completely pain-free. The application feels soft and gentle—you may not even notice it happening. Afterward, your lashes will feel just like your natural ones, only longer, fuller, and more glamorous.
Lash extensions usually last about 2 weeks before you’ll need a refill. This is because we naturally shed around 20% of our lashes every two weeks. When your natural lashes fall out, the extensions attached to them will fall out too. Regular refills will keep your lash line looking flawless and fresh.
