Why Yes, Eyelash Extensions ARE Worth Every Penny

So. Yesterday, I got lash extensions for the first time. There is a lot I could say about the whole experience--you know how I love to ramble on--but I think my before-and-after pics are going to do most of the talking for me. Check 'em out.

I actually have a lot of lashes, and they're pretty long. But apparently, there was still much room for improvement. Just look at these before-and-after pics, taken from above.

Notice the gap in my lashes in the before shot? Crazy--I always just thought that resulted from me crimping my lashes weird when curling them. Now, not only is the gap filled in, I don't even need my trusty curler, for the first time in my entire life. Nor do I need mascara or eyeliner--it looks like my eyes are completely made-up already.

I decided to get the extensions since I'm getting hitched in the boondocks this weekend and am using a pretty low-key makeup person at the wedding resort. Thus, I'd rather not fuss with glue-on faux lashes the morning of. Instead, I called up Baze's very favorite lash-extensions guru, Cheri of Lash Boutique (she uses Xtreme Lashes, a popular brand).
.

A few more photos of the thick, long lashes she created for me ...

In summary: Yes, quality lash extensions cost a quajillion dollars (a.k.a. $300 and up). But good ones last a couple months, and if you have a bunch of important events on your calendar, I think they are SO worth it.

I could probably sit here for an hour detailing the whole lash-extension experience, but instead, how about we start a little convo in the comments field below. Share your questions about fancy faux lashes, and I'll do my best to answer them, or I'll relay the toughies to Cheri herself. Fire away, girls!

Some More Pics of Eyelash Extensions

What Your Lashes Might Look Like After 6 Months of Extensions.

This is my client from Studio 603. She has been getting Eyelash Extensions from My Lash Girl since June of 2009 (7 months). This last time she went too long between her touch ups and ended up with just a few extensions left. She decided to get a brand new set of Eyelash Extensions so at her appointment I removed the left over extensions and started a new set. These pictures are a testament to what your natural lashes "should" look like after you are done with extensions. She did pretty well, meaning, she is not a picker (a person who picks at their extensions) and considering the length of her Eyelash Extensions (12-14mm) her lashes are in top shape.

Special Occasions

I wanted to add some pictures forwarded to me by a darling client who just got married. These are her wedding photos with emphasis on her lashes! This girl is beautiful with or without Eyelash Extensions but it was nice to feel beautiful on her honeymoon with no makeup on and still looking stunning!

Eyelash Extensions in Color

'Tis the season...to be wild! You can have some serious fun with your extensions. At My Lash Girl we carry brown, green, yellow, blue, red and purple extensions. These can be successfully blended with your black extensions to create a more festive look. For blonds, brown extensions might be a color of preference since it complements their natural complexion and hair color but regardless of your coloring we say "GO WILD!"
