Q: WHO IS NOT A SUITABLE CANDIDATE FOR LASH LIFTING?
Lash lifts may not be suitable for those who are pregnant, currently breastfeeding, anxiety, fear of the dark or if you are unable to lie down for long periods of time.
​
Q: WHY KERATIN LASH INFUSION LIFT?
After working with a lot of other brands out there I can safely say this is one of its kind. It is a true keratin infusion system. This is not the case with other brands, even some that market as a “keratin lash lift”. What they use is a synthetic keratin gel applied at the end of the treatment which gets washed off. I did my research until I found a high-end product that could infuse REAL keratin into the lashes. We guarantee no damage but also lashes that are stronger and thicker. We provide the best care for your lashes. You can rest assured you are in good hands!
​
Q: HOW LONG DOES THE LASH LIFTING PROCEDURE TAKE?
The treatment takes about 70-90 mins from start to finish.
Q: DOES THE YUMI™ LASH LIFT TREATMENT HURT?
No, this treatment is 100% pain-free!
​
Q: WHAT MAKES THE YUMI™ LASHES TREAMENT DIFFERENT FROM AN EYELASH PERM?
The Yumi Lashes treatment and a typical eyelash perm are very different. First off, an eyelash perm curls the delicate eyelash hair, which gives the hair an obvious curl but doesn't do much more. Eyelash perms also use very harsh chemicals that can severly damage or break the natural lash, and can do a lot of damage to the eye if there is a sloppy application.
The Yumi Lashes treatment takes your natural lashes and delicately lifts them from the root to make them appear longer and more full. We are also able to comb and separates each lash in the process to give the appearance of a more full, more voluminous lash line. The eye appears bigger, the lashes appear longer, and we apply a complimentary tint to give the eyes a great "pop!" Aside from that, the formula is a very gentle keratin protein treatment that adds nutrients and vitamins into the eyelashes. It's hypo-allergenic, cruelty-free, and extremely nourishing. What's not to love?!
Q:HOW LONG DOES THIS TREATMENT LAST FOR AND HOW OFTEN VAN I GET IT DONE?
This treatment lasts anywhere from 8-12 weeks or a whole cycle of the natural eyelash. In most cases, you will notice after about 8 weeks the eyelashes return to their natural unlifted state. However, the more often you lift, the longer your results will last.
This treatment is safe to apply to healthy lashes every6-8 weeks.
Q: CAN I GET THE YUMI™ LASHES TREATMENT DONE IF IM PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING?
Absolutely! This treatment is 100% safe for any new mom, or mom to be. However, with all the additional hormones in the body during the time of pregnancy or postpartum, there is no guarantee the treatment will take and manipulate the curl pattern of your natural eyelashes. If you choose to go ahead with the treatment during these delicate times, use your discretion and understand you may experience no change to the natural eyelash.
Q: I HAVE EYELASH EXTENSIONS, CAN I GET A LASH LIFT?
No, you may not get a Lash Lift with eyelash extension applied. However, this is a great treatment to get before you get your extensions put in. If you have very straight, or extremely curly eyelashes, getting a Yumi™ Lash Lift before getting your eyelash extensions installed can help make the natural eyelashes blend better.
