This month we tried: LVL Lashes by Nouveau Lashes at Cocoon Nail Spa, Motor City
The lowdown:
LVL Lashes has been the talk of the town recently. Known as the “natural” lash extension, it’s completely harmless to your natural lashes. The treatment adds length, volume and lift (hence the name ‘LVL’!) to your own lashes and lasts between six to eight weeks.
PB says: I always enjoy having lash extensions for very special occasions, but length. After very protective of my natural lashes as I’ve been blessed with natural volume and length. After hearing about LVL, I was itching to really see for myself the results of this. The treatment begins with the therapist cleaning my lashes, ensuring every trace of mascara is removed. A shield is then placed over my lower lashes to make sure they are protected from the perming solution. Then she combs my lashes and places a silicone shield on my upper lids. There a variety of different shields to choose from depending on what type of result you want: most dramatic (small shield), average (medium shield) and least dramatic (large shield). The therapist suggests medium for me. The lashes are gently lifted on to the shield and the perming solution is applied. This is then left for ten minutes, a naturaliser is then applied for five minutes, and then a tint is applied to darken my lashes. The final step is the application of the moisturising serum, which helps the lashes naturally come off the shield. I was very impressed with the simplicity of the treatment, the results created in four simple steps was amazing! Three weeks after the treatment, my lashes are still lifted and full of volume, there’s been no need to wear mascara at all which is huge benefit when living in Dubai and constantly frolicking in the pool!
Business benefits:
Adding a natural alternative to lash extensions to your treatment menu, allows you to cater for those clients who are wary of, or who might wish to have a break from extension treatments.
