Question 4

How do I prep for a spray tan?

Accepted Answer

Proper preparation is key to achieving a flawless and long-lasting spray tan. Follow these steps to ensure the best results from your spray tan at The L.A.B. Studio:
24-48 Hours Before Your Appointment:

Exfoliate Your Skin:

Gently exfoliate your entire body to remove dead skin cells. This helps create a smooth, even surface for the tan to adhere to.
Avoid oil-based exfoliants, as they can create a barrier on your skin.

Shave or Wax:

If you shave or wax, do so at least 24 hours before your appointment to allow your skin time to recover and your pores to close.

The Day of Your Appointment:

Shower:

Take a shower and thoroughly rinse off any products, such as lotions, oils, and deodorants, that could act as barriers to the spray tan solution.

Avoid Moisturizers and Makeup:

Do not apply any lotions, creams, perfumes, or makeup before your appointment, as they can interfere with the tanning solution's absorption.

Wear Loose, Dark Clothing:

Choose loose-fitting, dark clothing to wear after your spray tan. Tight clothes can rub against your skin and affect the tan's development.

Remove Jewelry:

Take off any jewelry to ensure an even application and avoid any unwanted tan lines.

Post-Appointment Tips:

Stay Dry:

Avoid getting wet for at least 6-8 hours after your spray tan to allow the solution to fully develop.

Avoid Sweating:

Try to stay cool and avoid activities that may cause sweating during the initial development period.

Hydrate Your Skin:

Once you've had your first post-tan shower, keep your skin hydrated with a gentle, oil-free moisturizer to prolong the life of your tan.

By following these steps, you'll achieve a beautiful, even, and long-lasting spray tan. Enjoy your gorgeous glow from The L.A.B. Studio!

Question 5

Will Lash extensions damage my natural lashes?

Accepted Answer

Short answer: No. When applied correctly, eyelash extensions do not damage your natural lash. At The L.A.B. Studio, our lash artists will apply to only one natural lash, and will apply an extension that is the appropriate weight and length to ensure the integrity of your natural lash. 
When lash extensions are applied incorrectly, (too heavy, too long, use of synthetic lashes, improper use of adhesive) they can cause damage. When choosing a lash artist, be sure to ask what techniques they practice and if they are properly certified.

Question 6

Can I wear make-up with my extensions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. However, oils break down the adhesive used for lash extensions. Most clients do not have any problems wearing their most loved makeup brands. We do offer eyeliner and mascara that is extension safe and will not affect the adhesive bonds.

Question 7

How long do lash extensions last?

Accepted Answer

Lash extensions can last up to 4-6 weeks before you would need to book a for a full set again. Clients will need a lash fill every 2-3 weeks depending on their shedding cycle. Like all hair on the human body, your natural lashes grow in stages. Your natural lashes will shed regardless if lash extensions are applied. This allows our body to replace the weak/old hairs and replace with new/strong ones. Clients usually notice this more in the Fall and Spring.

Question 8

Can I get Lash Extensions if I have previously had an allergic reaction?

Accepted Answer

It Is rare to have an allergy caused by lash extension adhesive, but it does happen. This is usually a result of an inexperienced technician applying lash extensions on or too close to the lash line. Unfortunately, once you have had a previous reaction, there is a 90% chance you will react every time after with each time getting worse. If you have experienced this, please contact us before booking an appointment.

Question 9

Do you work on other technician’s work?

Accepted Answer

We do require that if you have lashes on by another artist that you book in for a free 15 min consultation to allow us to assess the quality and application. We will not accept a new Fill appointment until we complete the consultation.

Question 10

How long does a Lashlift last?

Accepted Answer

A lash lift lasts anywhere between 6-8 weeks.

Question 11

Is it worth booking a Lashlift with a Tint?

Accepted Answer

In our professional opinion, a Tint with the Lashlift makes a difference and we recommend if you have light hair to definitely book for a Lashlift & Tint.

Question 12

How long do the results of teeth whitening last?

Accepted Answer

Usually lasts about 6 months. Results will vary based on diet and oral hygiene.
