The problem is on the rise because people are not properly washing them over fears the extensions could fall out. The lack of cleaning leads to a bacteria build up, which makes the perfect environment for lash lice to live and breed, reports ABC7 . Lash lice, known by its medical term Demodex, is a type of mite that lives in the oil glands of human hair follicles. Symptoms include itchiness, redness and inflammation and lice. Eyelash extensions have become a popular treatment offered at salons and by beauticians as they offer a semi-permanent solution for longer, full lashes. The lashes are applied individually with glue and bonded to your own lashes. The process can take around three hours to apply and last for about six weeks. It can cost up to hundreds of pounds for a full set which may be why some people are reluctant to clean them properly. Dr. Sairah Malik told ABC7 : "Generally the idea when you have eyelash extensions is that people are afraid to kind of touch them or wash them because they're afraid the eyelash will fall out." "We recommend tea tree base cleanser. Any cleanser that has a diluted form of tea tree, and it is a good idea to use on a daily basis." Tea tree oil is antibacterial and has healing properties.

Ashley visited Dr. Parbhu, who revealed her lashes were infested with Demodex. She said: "They burrow to the base of the lash follicles, and they feed off this material. Infection can set in if they overpopulate." Customers are also at risk of Demodex if salon staff do not wash their tools properly and if you do not remove your eye make-up properly.
