Lashes and brows
Lash lift in Laval
A lash lift curls your natural lashes from the root and sets them in place, with or without tint. No extensions, nothing to fill. Our team does it at the salon, 671 Curé-Labelle Boulevard in Chomedey, Laval.
Who it is for
A lash lift is for anyone who wants their natural lashes to look more open and lifted without extensions or regular refills. It works best when the lashes already have some length, whether they grow straight or downward. Read the notes below and mention any that apply when you book.
Tell us beforehand
- Recent eye surgery or eye infection
- Very short or sparse lashes: the curl may not hold, and we will say so before we begin
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding: speak with us before booking
- Lash extensions still in place: have them removed beforehand
- Sensitive eyes: patch test available on request
The appointment
Consultation
We begin with a short conversation about the result you want, then study the shape of your eyes and the length and density of your lashes. The curl is chosen here: more open or softer, to suit your eye.
Cleanse and shield
Every trace of makeup is removed. A small silicone shield is placed on the lid, and each lash is laid onto it in the right direction. From this point, your eyes stay closed.
Lift and set
The first lotion softens the lash so it takes the shape of the shield. The second sets the curl in place. Your only task is to rest with your eyes closed.
Tint and finish
If you have chosen tint, it is applied now, darkening each lash to the tip. The shield comes away, the lashes are brushed through, and you are handed the mirror.

Before and after
Before your appointment
- Arrive with clean lashes, free of mascara and eye makeup.
- Avoid waterproof mascara for forty-eight hours beforehand: it leaves a film that resists the lotion.
- Remove contact lenses before we begin, and bring your case.
- Tell us about any recent irritation or procedure around the eye.
- If you wear extensions, have them removed first.
Aftercare
- Keep your lashes dry for twenty-four hours: no water on the face, no steam, no sauna.
- No mascara for twenty-four hours. After that, a regular formula, never waterproof.
- Avoid oil-based makeup removers, which loosen the curl sooner.
- Do not rub your eyes, even first thing in the morning.
- Brush your lashes daily with a small, clean spoolie.
- The curl typically holds six to eight weeks, following the natural lash cycle.
Time to rest
Your specialist chooses the shield and the curl for the shape of your eyes. All you do is rest with your eyes closed, in a quiet room.
Your questions
How long does it last?
Typically six to eight weeks. The curl does not drop all at once: it leaves with each lash as it sheds naturally, and the new lash grows in straight. Once straight lashes begin to show through, it is time to book again.
Can I wear mascara?
Yes, after the first twenty-four hours. Choose a regular formula rather than waterproof, and an oil-free makeup remover. Many clients find they no longer need it: the curl does the work.
Lash lift or lash extensions?
A lash lift works with the lashes you have: less upkeep, nothing to fill, and a return visit every six to eight weeks. Extensions add length and density your own lashes do not have, and need a refill every two to three weeks. If you are undecided, we assess your lashes together before choosing.
Korean lash lift or classic?
A Korean lash lift aims for a softer curl that starts at the root and opens the eye without a sharp angle. The classic version curls more. We do not offer these as two separate services: the curl and the shield size are adapted to the shape of your eye and the length of your lashes. Tell us the look you prefer and we decide together.
Does it hurt?
Normally, no. Your eyes stay closed, the shield rests on the lid, and the lotions go on the lash, not in the eye. You may notice a slight coolness or a mild tingle. For sensitive eyes or a known allergy, ask for a patch test beforehand. They are available on request.
I am pregnant or breastfeeding. Can I still have it done?
Speak with us before you book. Hormonal changes can affect how the lash takes the curl, and some clients prefer to wait. We would rather advise waiting than perform a lift that does not hold.
How often should I come back?
Once the curl has grown out, typically after six to eight weeks. Lifting lashes too soon after a previous lift can weaken them, so we ask you to wait until the old ones have shed. In between, a tint on its own refreshes the colour.
Is the lash lift and tint worth it?
If your lashes are fair or fade toward the tip, yes: the tint darkens them to the very end, and after a lift that tip is exactly what shows. It is added to the same appointment. If your lashes are already very dark, we will say so: the tint is not necessary.
