Minx Eyelashes By NovaLash
By Rosie, Adored Salon

I am starting to have a new favorite lash style:   NovaMinx by NovaLash.
Without the sanitary issues associated with animal hair, NovaMinx is created to mimic minx fur.  NovaMinx are soft and supple with beautiful, glossy shine.

For those clients with sensitive eyelid skin, the NovaMinx is very light weight, along with other benefits, such as soft/supple texture, high gloss, sanitary, and they maintain curl when wet.

The following products are necessities to keeping a set of lashes fabulous between eyelash fills!!

1. Mascara by Novalash. NovaLash’s mascara is hypoallergenic, water soluble, and carbonate free. This mascara is specifically formulated for use with NovaLash eyelash extensions. It visibly blends in any natural lashes that appear when you are due for a touchup. This mascara is rich in vitamin E, A, and C to nourish your natural lashes.
2. LashLiner by NovaLash. LashLiner is known as “goes anywhere eyeliner cannot go.” It has a microthin pencil point that can be sharpened and reaches deep between the lashes. Once applied, it multiplies the look of each row of lashes for a great lash line.

How to Take Care of your Eyelash Extensions
To have the maximum wear time of your lashes it is important maintain them.  Depending on the look you want to achieve, touchups are necessary every 3 to 4 weeks.  If your look is more dramatic, more “fashionable,” you need to come in for a fill every 2 to 3 weeks.  After each fill you leave with a full set again.  3-4 week fills are 0 and 1-2 week fills are .
It is very important to keep up with the “at home” care.  First of all, after you leave your appointment you can shower, swim, go to a sauna, or do hot yoga!!!  Yay, yay.  To remove makeup (such as eyeliner and eye shadow) use the clean lash by Novalash.  It is a 3 in 1 makeup remover, cleanser, and conditioner system to cleanse lashes free of make-up and other debris at night.  The oil moisturizes synthetic extensions for lasting radiance and flexibility.   After using the pads morning and night, it is important to brush your lashes to prevent tangles. 
It is recommended not to wear mascara.  It is best to avoid products that have carbonates, glycols, and parabens.  The reason why is because those chemicals will dissolve the Novalash platinum band.

Get To Know Your Eyelashes!
Eyelash:  (Noun) Each of the short curved hairs growing on the edges of the eyelids, serving to protect the eyes from dust particles. 
Eyelashes grow just like normal hair except eyelash hairs cycle out every 30 to 60 days.  The length of our lashes are predetermined, when eyelash hairs reach their maximum length, they die, or shed.  Eyelash hairs grow in a cycle that includes three phases:  growing, resting, and shedding.  The natural ability of eyelash hairs to continuously grow, rest, and shed allows eyelash extension artists to constantly touch up just the new growth every month without ever having to apply a new full set.
The growing stage consists of the smallest, finest, shortest, least developed eyelash hairs.  The resting stage is when the lashes have stopped growing and is the beginning of the breakdown of the follicle.  Resting lashes are medium length.  The final stage is the shedding stage.  These lashes are the longest, darkest, and coarsest of all the eyelash hairs.  These hairs are no longer attached to the dermal papilla; it sits “dead” in the follicle until something pushes, pulls, or causes it to fall out.
The purpose of eyelashes is to catch dust, allergens, debris, and any airborne particles that could potentially enter the eye.  It is important to clean your lashes nightly to prevent infections.

True eyelash extensions are single fiber artificial eyelashes with a tapered tip and a blunt base.  When eyelash extensions are applied properly they grow, rest, and shed right along with your natural eyelash, so there is no damage the neighboring eyelashes.
The NovaLash technique was developed in 2005 by advanced trainer, Sophia Navarro.  NovaLash developed adhesives that are a bit stronger, more flexible, and more concentrated.  The NovaLash technique uses a three-length bonding technique that works with the growth cycle of eyelashes.  This technique ensures short natural lashes will be bonded with shorter in length extensions, resting natural lashes are bonded with medium length extensions, and shedding natural lashes are bonded to longer extensions.
The Nova Lash technique results in a more attractive, thicker lash line and also will grow out beautifully and stay natural looking, guaranteeing desirable immediate results.
