Nashville LASH

Nashville LASH is an eyelash extension studio at 211 Louise Avenue in Nashville, Tennessee. The studio describes itself as Nashville's premier lash extension studio, and says its focus is on quality, safety, health and sanitation.

Appointments are by appointment only. Volume extensions are built during the visit from lightweight, curved synthetic fans, and each fan is applied to a single natural upper lash. Clients lie on a massage table with their eyes closed. The studio describes its adhesive as surgical-grade, formulated for a durable bond.

Before a visit, clients should arrive with a clean eye area free of liquid liner and mascara; moisturizer and foundation are fine. New clients should come 10 minutes early for paperwork. Children are not accommodated, so childcare needs to be arranged ahead of time. Parking is complimentary, with five spaces set aside for lash clients.

Aftercare is part of the plan. Touch-ups are suggested every three to four weeks, and extensions can last up to two months depending on the natural lash cycle and care. For the first 24 hours, lashes should stay away from water spray, steam and swimming, and should be kept dry for four hours. Mechanical curlers and oil-based or waterproof mascara are discouraged, and extensions should be removed only by a lash artist. A full set is recommended at least two days before an event, and first-time clients are advised to book two to three weeks ahead.

The studio says its lash artists are highly trained, licensed and certified, and that some clients have been coming for five years or more.

The studio focuses on quality, safety, health and sanitation, and applies each extension to one natural lash at a time.
