Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are Eyelash Extensions?

    Eyelash Extensions are synthetic fibers that adhered to your natural lash with medical-grade eyelash adhesive. Our Luxury Eyelash Extensions provide length and fullness in your lashes you can’t get with mascara! 


    During your appointment your artist isolates each individual natural lash and applies an extension onto it. This ensures comfortable and healthy eyes! 

  • Master Artist vs Lash Artist

    We offer 2 levels of lash artists here at Couture Gypsy. 

    While both have gone through extensive training Lash Artist level stylists typically have longer appointment times. Lash Artists also have a lower price point making it easy to fit in your beauty budget.


    Master Artists have a bit more experience, quicker service times, and a higher price point. 


    Whichever artist you choose, we cant wait to help you "Be The Most Beautiful You"!

  • How long do Eyelash Extensions last?

    With proper care Eyelash Extensions will last until your natural lash sheds. 2-3 week fills are recommended to keep your Luxury Eyelash Extensions as full and fabulous as possible!

  • What is my Natural Lash Life Cycle?

    Your natural lashes have a life cycle of 5-8 weeks. You shed up to 4 natural lashes per day.

  • Are Luxury Eyelash Extensions Safe?

    YES! When applied by our trained Lash Artists our Luxury Eyelash Extension will not cause harm to your natural lashes. With the majority of our clients we see growth and stronger natural lashes when we apply extensions. *We Can Not Guarantee Any Other Salons Work* 

  • Can I wear Mascara?

    Our eyelash extensions are longer and thicker than your natural lashes so mascara is typically not needed. We tend to advise against mascara as ingredients can lead to premature lash loss.

  • How should I arrive to my appointment?

    Please come to your eyelash extension appointment eye-makeup free! It is very important to arrive with clean lashes that way we are able to prime your lashes and begin the service as soon as possible and there is no chance of makeup/oil blocking contact between the lash and the extension.

  • Can I come to you from another lash studio?

    We would love you have you here at Couture Gypsy no matter where you are coming from! If lashes are applied correctly and are a healthy length & weight we will gladly fill in between another artists work.


    Please book a "New Client Fill". These appointments are longer to ensure we have ample time to have a consultation to asses your needs as well as give you an amazing fill.


    Welcome to the CG family!

  • What type of fill should I book?

    Looking to book online but not sure which fill you need?


    Mini Fill: Recommended for clients with 70% or more of their extensions intact (usually no more than 7 days after last fill).


    Standard Fill: Recommended for clients with 50% of their extensions intact. (Typically 2 weeks time)


    Extended Fill: Recommended for clients with 30% of their extensions intact or for clients who are needing a little extra love! (Typically 3 weeks time)

  • What are Microblading & Ombre Brows?

    Microblading, is a semi-permanent makeup procedure that looks like your own hair! Microblading is extremely natural and only recommended for those with dry/normal skin. 


    Ombre Powder brows are created using a permanent makeup machine. These brows look like you have filled them in with a brow pencil and fade softly to the front. Powder brows are great for all skin types.


    MicroShading (Or Combo Brows) is a mix of the two techniques. We combine the hairstrokes of Microblading and lightly fill it in with the Powder technique. This is one of our most popular brow types!


    Our brows typically lasts 1-3 years, depending on skin type and skincare routine. Permanent makeup pigment does not fade into unnatural colors as compared to tattoo ink. No blue, gray, or pink faded brows here!

  • How long does Microblading/Powder Brows take?

    Your first session of each service includes drawing the perfect eyebrow shape, choosing the pigment, and the actual procedure which in all takes around 1.5-2 hr.


    The Perfecting Session (touch up) takes 45 min-1.5 hr.

  • Do I have to have a Perfecting Session?

    We highly recommend you attending your touch up appointment 4-6 weeks after your initial session. This is where we can add more strokes, adjust pigment color or shape, and insure you are completely satisfied with your new brows!

  • Is it painful?

    Every person responds differently to permanent makeup. We apply a numbing anesthetic to help ease any discomfort but clients are usually quite comfortable!

  • Is everyone a candidate for permanent makeup?

    Unfortunately not everyone is a candidate. Please call the Studio for more information (512) 887-4559

  • What is Lip Blushing?

    Lip Blushing is a form of permanent makeup. It is a lip tattoo that gives your lips a beautiful tint. 


    Lip blushing is great for clients who want to correct assymetry, who have lost color, or who want to make their lips look fuller! While we cannot go outside of the lip border to "overline" your lips we can create more fullness inside your lip tissue.
