Imagine skipping mascara completely and waking up with elegant, natural-looking lashes every single day. That’s what lash extensions do: individual synthetic lashes applied to your natural lashes, customized to your eye shape and the look you want.

If you’re thinking about booking, here’s exactly what to expect at Keyla Sánchez Aesthetics in Adriatica Village, McKinney.

What are lash extensions, exactly?

Lash extensions are individual fibers attached one by one to your natural lashes with a safe, professional adhesive. They’re fully customizable:

  • Classic: one extension per natural lash for a natural, mascara-like look.
  • Hybrid: a mix of classic and volume, textured and fuller but still natural.
  • Volume: soft, feathery fullness that’s always elegant, never heavy.

My signature style is elegant and natural. I don’t do the heavy, overdone “super volume” look. During your consultation, we’ll look at your natural lashes and eye shape and choose the style that flatters you most. The goal is lashes that look like yours, only better.

Why NovaLash

I’m a certified NovaLash artist since 2014, and I work exclusively with their products. NovaLash is the #1-rated lash extension brand, developed by physicians and scientists. Their pharmaceutical-grade, formaldehyde-free adhesive is biocompatible and designed to protect your natural lashes, so you get beautiful, long-lasting results without damage. I only work with the best-quality products because your eyes deserve nothing less.

Before your appointment

A little preparation makes the application smoother:

  • Arrive with clean, makeup-free lashes. No mascara, especially nothing waterproof.
  • Skip the lash curler that day.
  • If you wear contacts, bring your glasses or your case. You’ll keep your eyes closed for a while.
  • Bring inspiration photos if you have a look in mind.

During your appointment, step by step

Plan for about two hours. Most clients find it deeply relaxing (naps happen):

  1. Consultation. We talk about the look you want and I assess your natural lashes to choose the right length, curl, and style.
  2. Prep. You recline, under-eye pads go on, and your lashes are cleansed.
  3. Application. I apply each extension by hand, one natural lash at a time. Your eyes stay closed and comfortable the whole time.
  4. The reveal. You open your eyes to full, dark lashes. No mascara needed.

Aftercare: keeping them beautiful

Good aftercare is what makes extensions last:

  • Keep them dry for the first 24–48 hours. That means no swimming, saunas, steam, or crying at movies (okay, maybe just plan around that one).
  • Skip oil-based products around your eyes, since oils break down the adhesive.
  • Don’t rub or pull at your lashes.
  • Brush them daily with a clean spoolie to keep them neat.
  • Sleep on your back or a silk pillowcase if you can. Your lashes will thank you.

I’ll send you home with simple aftercare instructions, and you can always text me with questions.

How long do they last? Fills

Extensions shed naturally as your own lashes cycle. That’s completely normal. To keep them full:

  • Full set (Hybrid/Volume): $170
  • Fills: $75–$95. Most clients come every 2–3 weeks.

Regular fills keep your lashes looking fresh without ever needing a full redo.

Book your lash appointment

I see aesthetics clients by appointment only and availability is limited, so it’s best to plan ahead. Text (402) 208-8256 (texting is preferred) or book online at keylasanchez.com.
