They won't be lumpy if they use the next generation eyelash glue which has a watery consistency for clean applications - my eyelash technician gets hers from Secret Lashes .. good luck .. you will love them - I do!!
 
i cant believe they fell out already from washing your face!!!! i would just stick with fake lashes for now....they will be fuller, and you choose when to take them off! not them! lol.
 
The consensus on this thread seems to be a thumbs down for eyelash extensions, yet I really had my heart set on getting them for my wedding September 18th.
I'm in the NYC area and was wondering if anyone else could chime in about their experiences.
I've been trying decide between Uptown Girls and Lastique. The procedure is very expensive, but I'm willint to shell out the cash if they look great for the wedding. TIA!!!
 
This is a classic example of what happens when you don't do your research first. I'm sorry that it didn't turn out as planned. I know it sucks when you put that much time and money into it.
Have you considered some of the lash stimulator products? I used Jan Marini Age Intervention Eyelash (the original formulation) with amazing results. My lashes grew so long, I had to trim them. I recently switched to a product called LiLash because it's difficult to find the original formulation of Jan Marini. The products aren't cheap and they can take up to 3 months to work (because that's the growth cycle of an eyelash), but they can be worth it if you find one that works for you.
 
^Wow! Talk about torture. Sitting in a chair while they "perm" my lashes and then glue on tiny extensions is WAY more than the standard price of beauty.
Best of luck on the process though! I hope you get the results you're looking for.
 
^I'm sorry, but I have no suggestions to offer. I am not a fan of eyelash extensions because they are expensive, they don't last very long, and the process is too time-consuming. I know very little about eyelash perming.
I'd much rather put my resources towards growing my own lashes. LiLash is having a sale right now: LiLash for $99 with promo code SUMMER (it normally retails for $140.00).

I heard that stuff can dye your eye balls. I have very light eyes and would be afraid i would have spots from the stuff in them

No, it doesn't "dye your eyeballs" as you put it. You are referring to a slight risk associated with a prescription drug called Latisse. Latisse, if used incorrectly, can cause light-colored irises to darken permanently (this is a very rare side effect however).
LiLash (or any other over-the-counter eyelash growth stimulators) is the product that I was referring to and it does not contain prescription drugs.
 
I've done them and I didn't have burning or stinging, but they just didn't last long. Looked great for about 1.5 weeks and then they all rapidly fell out. Maybe for a special occasion, but that's all.
 
I've tried getting extensions it does look good and makes me look younger, along with using Revitalash, have you guys tried this? I Used this for a month now and my eye lashes look thicker and healthier.
