Why Your Lash Extensions Shed More in Spring & Autumn

Lash shed season explained

It’s completely normal to notice more lashes falling out during certain times of the year — usually in spring and autumn. Your natural lashes follow a growth cycle, and seasonal changes, temperature, and hormones can speed up shedding.

What you might notice

• More gaps appearing in your lash extensions

• Lashes feeling lighter or less full

• Need for infills sooner than usual

This is not a sign of poor application — it’s just your natural lashes doing their thing!

How to manage lash shed season

1. Book infills sooner — keeping up with your 2–4 week schedule helps maintain fullness.

2. Be gentle with your lashes — avoid rubbing, pulling, or sleeping on your face.

3. Keep them clean — a lash-safe cleanser removes dirt, oil, and makeup residue that can weaken retention.

Seasonal shedding is natural and temporary. By adjusting your infill schedule and looking after your lashes, you can keep your set looking gorgeous year-round.
