You are KIDDING me!

Thats so bad! I mean sure one or two days later a few jinny lashes fall out. But consider this; I have about 30 put in on each eye and out , mayber 2 have fallen out by 2 days?

You need to find someone really good to do them though. The problem is that they can turn around. Meaning one out of the lot can turn around a day or two later and point down. It doesnt hurt but its a hassle to keep having to be sure its up straight. Its hard to explain.
If it does turn upside you just turn it up again or can manipulate it with mascara.
 
Sounds like it was a bust, IntlSet. I'm sorry it wasn't what you expected. I'm surprised myself. You're right .... if you already have full lush eyelashes then what's the point?!?!
 
I had mine done for my wedding and it was such a bad idea. I hated them. They fell out almost completely during my 3-week honeymoon and I was so relieved after that. Once and never again!

Save your money for a nice handbag, totally not worth it especially if you wear glasses (and truthfully I do not even think anyone even noticed i had it done). If you live in the NY area you can PM me for her number.

i would agree to that.

i've got them done. after a few days, they started to annoy me because i get hayfever and tend to rub my eyes when the pollen count is high. i wouldn't get them done again.
 
Forgot to add....

I did try the eyelash perm. But since I don't have long eyelashes, it was such a waste of moneyand time !! :rant: Shu Uemura's eyelash curler did much better job than the perm!

I do the eyelash perm too! I have short eyelashes but they really do wonders for me. Have been doing it monthly for 2 years now.
 
Anyone know the best place to get them done.. I've heard of Lavish Lashes - Eyelash Extensions.. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Closet Therapy: Eyelash Extensions

Individual eyelashes are glued onto your existing eyelashes. You can choose how full or long you want them, and as your natural eyelashes fall out, the extension attached falls out also. They last up to two months.

I would love to have a set of falsies that could last up to 2 months! The cost puts me off, however. I found a nearby salon that will do it for $100, which surprises me considering it's a nice salon and everyone else is charging around $250. Maybe their pricing list online was outdated.
 
My friend has extensions put on at her salon. The length is nice but it always seems like some of them, especially the ones on the sides are a bit TOO long. I've also seen a couple of other people with them and they look ok I guess...I might have it done once just to see what it looks like but eh. My lashes are pretty long anyway so I just use either Diorshow mascara or that Max Factor mascara with the little rubbery yellow wand and that makes my lashes look even longer without clumps etc.
 
Has anyone tried or thinking about getting eyelash extensions? I was considering it, but is it really worth hundreds to get something that will only last 1-2 months?
