I went recently for my first ever lash lift. It was a great experience! I was slightly nervous because I get really twitchy even when getting my makeup done by others. After some initial jitters, the process went so smoothly and was so relaxing I almost fell asleep. Love the look of my curled lashes now.
After going to the same lash place for 8 yrs, my work schedule was changing & I wanted to find a place that had openings on my days off. This place is open 7 days a week which was great. I saw the work via Yelp & IG so I decided to give them a try. They prefer you to text to communicate & they were quick to respond. I made an appt to remove my old lashes & start fresh. I booked with Emy. I came in 15 mins before my appt thinking I had to fill out some paperwork. No one was in the front so I rang the bell. Someone came out & told me Emy was on her way & just to wait. I then asked if I needed to fill out anything & she gave me a clipboard with a questionnaire. Basic questions about your lash & eye history. Filled it out. Emy arrived a few minutes before my appt time & she introduced herself. Super nice. I told her I like them full & showed her a wispy like set from their IG page. She spent 30 mins removing my old lashes & then an hr & half to do my set. After she was done, I looked in the mirror & I didn't think they were as full as I wanted but then also thought my next fill they'll start to look fuller. It wasn't the style I was use to but it didn't look bad. I felt things poking my eye the first day & later in the evening when I would blink hard, it felt like something was poking my waterline. I thought the lashes just needed time to settle but like I mentioned I've had lash extensions for the past 8 yrs & never have a felt something like this. After a few days I started to look at my lashes more carefully. I had lash extensions under my waterline & that was what was poking me. The glue was very thick to where when I brushed from the bottom up, I couldn't really get the brush to go through the bottom. Then when my lashes started to shed, I saw 2 fans on 1 eye lash. For volume it is 1 fan per lash & I started to realize why my lash line felt sore. Then I also had some lashes fall off with 2 of my real lashes, so the isolation wasn't there. I ended up popping off majority of the lashes myself & then getting the rest removed. I really wanted to like this place & make it work bc of how close it was to my house & overall customer service, but I think they need to go over more training with their employees. They do offer a free fix up to 3 days after your appt but with what I saw happening to my lashes, I figured to just let them fall off & try another place. See pics for examples. Just know lash extensions aren't supposed to hurt or your eye feel any type of discomfort. If they do, then something wasn't done right.
5 stars all around! I especially want to give a shoutout to Emy (Emily). She is Amazing!! I always feel fabulous every time she does my set. She is so sweet and very accommodating. I'm 30 weeks pregnant and I have a difficult time lying on my back. She surprised me with such a comfy setup and is so understanding that I have to turn around practically every 15 mins. I love how the place is clean and has such a calming atmosphere. Because of my pregnancy sometimes I have sleepless night. I'm always excited to get my lash done here cause I know I'll have the best nap ever ( too the point where I'm snoring) and wake up looking like a glamorous pregnant princess.
