If you’ve been considering a lash lift, one of the first questions you’re probably asking is: How long does a lash lift really last? Well, you’re in luck, because today we’re answering it fully from the team at Lash Zone London.
What Is a Lash Lift and How Does It Work?
A lash lift is like a perm for your natural lashes. It lifts and curls them from the root using a safe setting solution, giving you that wide-eyed, mascara-like look - without actually needing mascara. The result? Longer-looking, lifted lashes that require zero daily effort.
At Lash Zone London, we use high-quality, lash-safe products that enhance your natural lashes while keeping them healthy and strong.
So, How Long Does a Lash Lift Actually Last?
Most lash lifts last between 6 to 8 weeks, depending on a few factors. For some clients, results may fade closer to the 5-week mark, while others enjoy the full lift for up to two months. It all comes down to your natural lash cycle and how well you care for your lashes afterward.
What Affects Lash Lift Longevity?
There are a few key things that determine how long your lash lift lasts:
- Lash Growth Cycle: As new lashes grow in, the lifted ones begin to shed.
- Aftercare: Using oil-based products or steam too soon after treatment can break down the lift.
- Lash Type: Fine or straight lashes may relax sooner, while stronger lashes tend to hold the curl longer.
- Product Quality: Cheap solutions can weaken your results or cause over-processing.
Why Your Lash Lift May Not Have Lasted Long
If your lift faded in a week or two, it could be due to:
- Excessive exposure to water, steam, or oil in the first 24-48 hours
- Using heavy mascara or lash serums immediately afterward
- An incorrect application (always choose a trained, experienced tech!)
- Naturally fast-growing lashes
Not sure what caused it? At Lash Zone, we offer consultations to help figure it out and make a plan that suits your lashes.
How to Make Your Lash Lift Last Longer
Want your lift to go the distance? Here are our top tips:
- Avoid water, steam and sweat for the first 24-48 hours
- Don’t use oil-based skincare or makeup removers
- Sleep on your back (pillow friction can flatten the lift)
- Use a lash conditioner to keep lashes nourished and healthy
- Brush your lashes daily with a clean spoolie
Are Lash Lifts Damaging to Natural Lashes?
Not when they’re done properly.
A lash lift shouldn’t damage your natural lashes - in fact, many clients find their lashes look healthier over time. At Lash Zone London, we use gentle, high-end products and never over-process. Your lash health is always our priority.
Is a Lash Lift Worth It? Real Benefits That Clients Love
We might be biased - but absolutely, yes. A lash lift is perfect if you:
- Want to cut time from your morning routine
- Prefer a natural look with minimal effort
- Want a mascara-like finish without the smudging
- Are going on holiday, attending events, or just love feeling polished
Most of our clients come back every 6-8 weeks - because once you’ve had a lash lift, it’s hard to go back!
When to Book Your Next Lash Lift Appointment
To maintain your results, we recommend rebooking every 6 to 8 weeks. This makes sure that your lashes stay lifted as your natural growth cycle continues.
We also recommend booking your appointment around upcoming holidays, weddings, or events to make sure you’re feeling your best when it counts.
