Why do I need to remove my contacts before receiving lash extensions?

Hello there! What a great question this is!

I request that all clients take out their contact lenses prior to the application of lash extensions, as the fumes from the lash adhesive can potentially melt the material used in your contacts. This could lead to ulcers or permanent damage, necessitating emergency surgery. When you visit, I have consent forms for you to sign regarding contact lenses. If you wear contacts and are unable to remove them, please be aware that I will reschedule your appointment for your safety.
