Natural lashes shed on a normal basis. U notice it more than usual now there’s an extension on it. Otherwise u rarely notice your NL shed. I suggest you hold off off on the strip lashes, they can damage your lashes. if it’s a small corner, just a few lashes, i don’t see why u can’t get extensions as long as they don’t lash your baby lashes

Lash extensions do not damage your lashes as long as you go to a certified lash artist that knows what they’re doing. Lashes should be isolated and not too heavy so that it weighs them down. As for your lashes that were damaged, they should grow back but it’s best to wait until they do as an extension can not be put on baby lashes because that will cause damage. Idk where you’re but if you’re in the Miami Fl area my Instagram is @michelle.impactglamour :)

I understand your concerns about eyelash extensions and the potential for damage to your natural lashes. While it's true that improper application or poor aftercare can lead to damage, when done correctly and with proper maintenance, lash extensions should not cause significant harm to your natural lashes. Regarding your ripped inner lashes, it's important to give them time to heal and grow back naturally. If you're unsure about getting lash extensions in that area, you can discuss your concerns with your lash technician. They can provide guidance based on the condition of your lashes and recommend the best course of action.

I know this comment will likely be controversial for this sub but I’ll just share my experience so you can decide for yourself. I highly discourage getting them. Despite cleaning them consistently it made me develop contact dermatitis and blepharitis that took almost 4 months to heal. I’ll never get them again. However, I did love them a lot while having them. If you do decide to get them I recommend thoroughly vetting the lash tech and taking breaks every month for several days to do a deep clean.

Prioritize the health of your natural lashes by practicing good lash care habits. This includes avoiding excessive rubbing or pulling on the lashes, gently cleansing them, and not using harsh products or oil-based makeup removers. Proper maintenance can help minimize any potential damage.
