Allergic reactions are the worst. When your eyes swell up and become itchy and red, it's not only painful but also a health risk.

There are several things that can turn a keratin lash lift into a horror story. For instance, if the technician is not properly trained, they may not apply the keratin evenly. This can lead to some lashes being lifted more than others, creating an uneven look. In addition, some products used in the lash lift might not be of high quality. Low - quality keratin solutions can cause the lashes to lose their natural shine and flexibility, making them look dull and lifeless. And if the aftercare instructions are not followed properly, it can also lead to problems like premature drooping of the lashes.
My horror story was that during the keratin lash lift, the solution stung my eyes a bit. I'm not sure if it was a normal reaction or if something was wrong with the product.
