    Default Fake Eyelashes from Store vs. Semi-Permanent Extensions

    What do you all recommend? If the Novalashes are worth $200 for the intial set, plus the $50-$80 for upkeep, I'll get them. However, if they aren't, it might be better spending the extra time/effort to apply fake eyelashes each day. I just like the idea of not having to worry about applying them and having them fall off all in one clump, though.

    I had extensions and I regret it very much. Although they weren't the brand you are referring too.

    It was also really hard to apply my eye makeup with really long lashes and remove it too.

    I lost a lot of my real eyelashes when I had to eventually get them removed, cuz they were a major pain the ass. Now they are growing back SLOW with weird parts in them.

    I would just stick with the false ones so that you have variety for day wear and glam night wear.

    Lash extensions are a giant pain in the ass, at least they were for me! I'll take half strip lashes and Shu Uemura lash glue over extensions any day!

    I paid $30 for eyelash extensions and thought they weren't worth it...

    Shit, I know a girl who paid $400 for them at a top salon in NYC and they looked amazing.

    I'll just stick to mascara though...

    I'd be open to trying them at least once. My friggin' lashes are already long and thick but stick straight no matter how I curl them or what mascara I use. It's such a piss off.

    My eyes are REALLY sensitive, so much that sometimes fake lashes make them water. I bet if I got extensions, I'd be allergic to them or something

    I had lash extensions and they weren't for me. While they mad my lashes longer they still weren't as noticeable as I wanted them. I was told by the salon not to wear mascara, with the heavy eye makeup I wear for work they still didn't show up that well.

    I prefer false eyelashes.

    Lash extensions are good for pretty, but still natural looking. They get messy if you use mascara. Wayyy too much money for the effect. I say use the falsies.
