Reasons to Avoid Reusing Eyelash Extensions
Seeing as eyelash extensions are costly, it is rational to search for routes to recycle the item or service in order to save money. It stands to reason that getting your lash extensions replenished every few weeks is an investment if you want to maintain luscious and billowing eyelashes. Therefore, many people try to find approaches to make their eyelash extensions last longer or even reuse them. Still, recycling lashes is not recommended.
Lash extensions, which are applied by lash artists directly to your natural lashes, cannot be reused since they are semi-permanent. They will remain attached to your natural lashes for two to four weeks until the natural ones shed and the extensions fall out with them slowly. Since this is the case, collecting each of the dropping eyelash extensions and recycling them is not viable or realistic.
