If you’ve been considering trying beautiful lash extensions for wedding, there’s no better time than before your wedding to test out this growing beauty trend. In fact, most of our brand new clients tend to be brides to be.
Eyelash extensions for wedding
There’s a lot of pressure to look your best on your wedding day, but also for the events leading up to it. For example, engagement photos, wedding showers, the bachelorette party, and so on. Eyelash extensions could be the key factor in looking your best for all of these events, even for the need for little to no other makeup!
They make your lashes look longer, fuller, and darker, and they go well with beautiful wedding day makeup looks.
Eyelash extensions can be a real life hack moment for your beauty routine, but before you jump straight in, it’s important to discuss the potential side effects that come with any beauty treatment. Eyelash extensions aren’t right for everyone, and they do require a lot of upkeep. There are tons of benefits as well, so let’s look at it all.
So, let’s get started with the big question:
Should I get lashes for my wedding?
All brides should have some type of lash enhancement for their big day. Whether this is full on semi-permanent eyelash extensions or something a bit more temporary. Lashes will make your eyes stand out in photos and really completes your makeup look. So, what are the benefits?
Low Maintenance
Lash extensions are great for a girl who’s busy, because, aside from routine appointments, they are fairly low maintenance. If you’re travelling, or your mornings are a mad rush to get ready for work, or getting kids ready for school before going on to your appointments.
You might think that it is just the 2 minutes it takes to apply mascara, but you would be surprised at the amazing look you have even without the need for other types of makeup. You’ll feel more put-together from the moment you wake up, so you may choose to do without makeup altogether for a natural look that is still polished.
On your wedding day, there is a lot of time that goes into making your hair and other makeup look it’s best. Now you can grab some of this time back knowing that your eyes are already in tip top shape with bridal eyelash extensions.
More Photogenic
Naturally, longer, darker, more curled lashes make your eyes look bigger and brighter. This is why people look into wedding day lashes. Even if you choose to go with a natural wedding day makeup look, your eyes will stand out more in photos, and you’ll look less tired (which is a common feeling of brides for stressing and not getting much sleep in the build up to their wedding), and you’ll catch your groom’s eyes from the far end of the aisle no problems!
If you’re likely to get teary on the big day, this alone should be reason enough to invest in lash extensions so you can avoid any fatal black streaks running down your perfectly airbrushed face!
With eyelash extensions, you won’t need mascara at all, meaning you can feel free to weep away!
Honeymoon Ready
As much as lash extensions will look amazing on your actual wedding day, thanks to lasting 4-6 weeks, they will last well into your honeymoon as well! This means that you can wake up feeling bright and beautiful, thanks to your full lashes.
Tailored to fit your style
Your lash technician can adjust the length, curl, and color of your extensions to either match or enhance your natural eyelashes so that you can choose the right style to suit you. You can also decide between a half set, which is the most natural-looking, a full set, for the real wow look. This is one way that classic lash extensions and volume lash extensions differ.
If you decide to get an eyelash extension for your wedding, just be sure to try them a few months in advance, ideally at least 12 weeks out, so that you have time to see if you like the way they look and feel. This also allows you to plan out future appointments, so you can get a fresh fill right before your big day. It’s one of the mistakes some brides make – and tends to get you feeling stressed on the wedding day.
Cons
Expense
The upfront investment in lash extensions can be quite a bit more than what you might expect, although not too expensive overall. Quality service comes at a cost, and when you’re working on your eyes, it’s best to go with the experts.
Lash Maintenance
Despite being low maintenance overall, it’s important to remember that they are not indestructible, in fact, far from it. Try to avoid oils and creams around your face, and sleeping face down in pillows – in fact, try using a silk material for your pillowcase to avoid snagging.
