Can I get eyelash extensions when I am pregnant? Can I get eyelash extensions when I am pregnant?

We all know that women should try to avoid contact with cosmetics during pregnancy. If they must wear makeup, they should use cosmetics specially for pregnant women, because only cosmetics specially for pregnant women will have less stimulation to the fetus in the body. Some women are also particularly fond of beauty during pregnancy. They think their eyelashes are not long enough, so they want to graft eyelashes. So, can they still graft eyelashes when they are pregnant?

Can pregnant women get eyelash extensions?

Pregnant women are not suitable for eyelash grafting, because there are many eyelash grafting institutions, but there are relatively few truly formal eyelash grafting institutions.

During the eyelash grafting process, the use of irregular glue and eyelash materials is risky and can easily lead to adverse reactions after eyelash grafting. Therefore, eyelash grafting is not recommended for pregnant women. There are three reasons why pregnant women cannot have eyelash extensions. Let’s take a look at them below.

Why can't pregnant women get eyelash extensions?

1. The glue contains toxic ingredients that may be absorbed by the skin

When gluing natural eyelashes and false eyelashes, eyelash glue must be used. Eyelash glue contains cyanide components, which are irritating. If it acts directly on the human body in a liquid state, it will induce skin allergies and cause redness, swelling and inflammation. Therefore, for the safety of themselves and their fetuses, pregnant women should not get eyelash extensions.

2. The glue smells irritating

It takes 1-2 hours to get eyelash extensions on both eyes. During the entire process, the patient must not open his eyes because the glue is irritating. If you can't help but open your eyes, your eyes will feel stinging. Therefore, pregnant women may feel irritated when getting eyelash extensions, so pregnant women should not get eyelash extensions.

3. Eyelash grafting can easily lead to eye infection

If you get eyelash extensions at an informal institution, if the chemical glue gets into your eyes, it may cause chemical damage to your cornea and conjunctiva. If the materials and instruments used for eyelash grafting are not clean, it is easy to cause local infection of the eyes, and in severe cases it will cause redness and swelling of the eyes. Ophthalmologists generally do not recommend eyelash grafting for those who pursue beauty, so pregnant friends should not consider the so-called eyelash grafting procedure.
