October is officially here and fall is in the air! But what do we dread about our favorite season? Fall “lash shedding”. Today, we’re sharing why this happens and what you can do in order to keep your lashes looking lush and full this season!<\/p>\n
Remember when you’d make a wish after noticing a fallen lash? Yes, that was lash shedding and we all experience it, even with lash extensions<\/a>. Even though lashes completely replenish and regrow every 60-90 days, our lashes continue to fall out in cycles. But don’t worry, this IS<\/strong> <\/em>a healthy part of our hair growth routine. On average, we lose up to 20% of our natural lashes every two weeks, and depending on our individual hair growth, we can shed between one and five natural lashes per day.<\/p>\n The cool thing is that right at this very moment you have a new eyelash growing<\/a> to replace a lash that fell out and, for the majority of us, this is a process that we hardly notice.<\/p>\n Do you know how some animals shed their winter coats? Well, it\u2019s mostly the same for us and lash shedding! Why does this happen and why this time of year?<\/p>\n As fall approaches and the seasons and temperatures begin to change, so does the humidity. This change is what can alter our lash growth cycle and can be the reason we notice a few fallen lashes here and there. During this time, our bodies are increasing oil production to keep not only our hair but also our skin from getting dehydrated. Just like it\u2019s not uncommon for us to notice additional shedding with the hair on our head this time of year, it\u2019s the same with our lashes.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s the Deal:<\/strong> Lash shedding does not magically stop when you have extensions. It\u2019s important to know that when you have a natural eyelash that sheds, your extension will go with it. For all of us, each individual eyelash is programmed to reach a certain length, fall out, then regrow, taking the extension along for the ride.<\/p>\n But, there\u2019s good news! As long as you keep up with your lash refill appointments<\/a> every two-to-three weeks (like the good lash guest we know you are\u2026 wink, wink<\/em>), your lash line will stay full and gorgeous!<\/p>\n Book Appointment<\/a><\/p>\n We would love to talk to you about how our memberships save you money on your bi-weekly refills, cleansing products, and more perks!<\/p>\nFall Lash Shedding: Why Does it Happen?<\/h2>\n
