Lash extensions for new moms

No time, no sleep, still want to feel like yourself. Why lash extensions are a low effort win for new moms in Wilmington, DE.

When you have a new baby, getting ready takes a back seat. A lot of moms tell us lashes are the one thing that makes them feel put together without adding work to the morning.

Why lashes work for busy moms

• No mascara, so nothing to smudge when you are tired or teary.
• You look awake even when you did not sleep.
• Photos with your baby look better without makeup.
• The appointment itself is a chance to lie down and close your eyes.

Pick a set that fits your life right now

A natural classic or light hybrid set is easier to keep up with than a dramatic volume set. Shorter lengths also hold up better if you are sleeping in odd positions or on the couch.

Timing your fills

Fills every two to three weeks keep your set full. If that is hard to fit in, a lash lift and tint is another option. It lasts around six to eight weeks with no fills.

A note on timing after birth

Hormone changes after pregnancy can affect how your natural lashes shed. If you notice more shedding than usual, mention it to your artist so she can adjust your set.
