I've done it twice. The first time it turned out really good, but I could see the glue at some places and the glue went hard and also started to irritare my eyes so I had to take them off.

The second time I did it at the same place but with another girl and I really had no visible glue if I didn't look up really close. But those eyelashes started to fall off on the next day so I went back and got it touched up. But they didn't last for much longer..

Although I love the effect i'm not sure I will do it again because of the glue.

my aunt has had it done and she loves it! but unfortunately she says in her experience it only last for about 3 months before really looking like your eye lashes are balding. maybe she just got a botchy job done?? id try it if i were u! maybe when you go to visit the salon you'll meet clients there who have done it. see their opinions. i do that a lot.

I found pics of when I had mine done. I went for fullness instead of length. Here are before and after. I won't get it done again. Too much upkeep.

Wow-Hubbawubba, you have a beautiful skin/eye colour combination!! Stunning! ..and thanks for sharing those pics. :smile1:

I got eyelash extensions done with a Novalash girl a couple months ago. They looked really pretty at first, but after a week or so I could really feel the glue (it was all clumpy and hard-- you definitely could not run an eyelash comb through!) If you looked up close, you could see the base of the fake lash (quite thick) attached to my real lash (not so thick). The lashes were also very hard and poke-y. The feel of those foreign substances near my eyes really bugged me, so I ended up picking at them until they fell out. The glue took forever to come off. I wouldn't do it again. My Diorshow looks almost as good as the falsies without any of the annoyances/upkeep/price...

Wow $400!! There are places in Queens or NJ that do it for way cheaper. I went to a Korean place to have mine done. I think I paid $150 which included a free touchup 14 days after. I will see if I can dig up the number.

Hi! Do you live in Manhattan? My sister wants them done for her wedding, but doesn't know of a good place to get them that isn't $400!

I don't have a pix yet but they cost $150.00 She put them on Friday and then touched up on Monday and sealed them. I do realize that they will be $$ to keep up but I'm one of those girls that hardly wears make-up but I'm really big on the lashes. My fav mascaras are Dior show and Fiberwig

I did it for my wedding last year. I wouldn't recommend it. It's costly, time consuming, and requires way too much maintenance.
I've been using Revitalash for the last month or so and my lashes are super long & lush. I bought Revitalash for $180 online and hopefully the results are permanent.

i haven't done it myself but i've seen people do it.
i think it looks really great but they said that they can't put on mascara afterwards.
its very costly though. so i wouldn't consider it for myself unless i had lost of money to blow.
