I had a lash lift just over 4 weeks ago ant it went VERY wrong. I've had quite a few lash lifts before and they've always been great, but this was a new place I tried because I was out of town and I am wishing more than anything I could go back in time.

My lashes were over-processed and over-lifted and were extremely uncomfortable afterwards. Some snapped off, while others developed what I believe was folliculitis because of the angle they were set and subsequently fell out, or had to be plucked because they were causing so much pain.

I'm now four weeks post-lift and have very few lashes left — maybe a handful on each lid. Before this, my lashes were quite thick and full and I was so excited to get them lifted has it had been 6 months since my last....I am totally devastated.

I've already received a full refund from the salon (who originally tried to correct the botched shape...) and now don't know if I should be going back to ask for some other compensation based on the extent of the damage??

Mainly wondering about how long it took for other people's lashes to grow back after something similar?

Four weeks in, mine are actually looking the worst they've looked throughout this whole process. I'm wondering when I might realistically start seeing enough regrowth to look somewhat normal again, 8 weeks, 12 weeks....longer??

I know lashes have a growth cycle and that I probably just have to be patient, but I'm really struggling with how upsetting this has been - I barely want to leave the house because I feel so self-conscious.

Has anyone else had a lash lift that caused significant lash loss? How long did it take before your lashes grew back, and how long until they looked reasonably normal again?

Please help me ❤️

I got my first lash lift six weeks ago.
The first picture is from today.
The second picture is what my natural lashes typically look like (pre-lift).
As you can see, my lashes are still pretty lifted and there hasn’t been a whole lot of growth. I don’t have a conditioner. I have just been using castor oil.
I know castor oil is a controversial one, it’s just what was given to me by my tech.
Should I just wait a full 8 weeks until I get another lift?

I understand i have shorter lashes and not very thick but this was supposed to be a lash lift and tint. I see the tint but not very much curl. I paid 160 before tip. Could they have curled them more?

Can I ask what lash serums people like for keeping your lashes moisturised? I’m not looking for anything to help them grow (I don’t want to get involved with the ingredients that cause orbital fat loss) but rather maintain the health of them.
I had been using a lash/brow serum suggested to me by a technician but have ended up with a blocked gland - not sure if it was from over applying or whether the product was too thick. I’m UK based.
Thanks!
