The average cost for a full set of eyelash extensions is $120 to $300, depending on the material, style, fullness level, and the salon's location and reputation. For a simple, clean look, classic eyelash extensions are typically the cheapest, costing $75 to $150+. Volume lash extensions cost the most at $170 to $350 for a fuller, bolder style. Hybrid extensions meet in the middle with a blend of classic and volume lashes ranging from $140 to $280+.

• Lash extension refill and touch-up appointments cost $30 to $100.
• Professional eyelash extension removal costs $25 to $50.

Eyelash extensions take 1 to 4 hours for a full set or 30 to 90 minutes for a refill, depending on the type of lashes and the stylist's experience. Classic lashes are the quickest to apply and usually take under 2 hours while applying volume lashes can take up to 3 hours.

Eyelash extensions last 3 to 4 weeks on average, depending on the growth rate and lifespan of your own lashes, as eyelash extensions are attached to your natural eyelashes. In general, about 20% of your lashes will complete their life cycle and fall out each week.

Follow these tips for longer-lasting eyelash extensions:

• Sleep on your back at night.
• Avoid getting the lashes wet for 24 to 48 hours after your appointment.
• Avoid saunas or hot steam.
• Brush your lashes if needed, but do not brush them if they are wet.
• Avoid using oil-based creams near your eyelashes.

To ensure the best results with your eyelash extension application:

• Wash your eyes and face well with an oil-free cleanser or makeup remover.
• Do not curl your lashes before your appointment.
• Do not wear eye makeup or mascara to your appointment.
