    Default just got eyelash extentions

    yippee! they look sooooooooooo cool.

    They only cost me AU$28.
    I went to this really cheap place so if they end up falling out quickly I wont be so worried.

    I got them about a month or so ago. I paid $140. they were nice but i was told that I couldn't wear mascara with them. To me, while they looked good for every day, I want something more intense for work and with my heavier eye makeup I didn't feel that I had any eyelashes at all.

    I didn't get them touched up and I actually ended up trimming them down. This reason may sound stupid but, I went for a ride on the Harley with my husband and the wind kept getting under my sunglasses, the lashes were so long that they kept blowing into my eyes and it was very uncomfortable. I'm not about o give up a summer of riding with my husband so I went back to my false eyelashes at work.

    I'd like to point out that they're only like $30-80 TOPS in Australia. Most girls I know get them every three weeks and pay more on their nails.

    I wanna see!

    Yeah, the first place I found that did them wanted $250. I just found another little salon in Union Square that'll do them for $80, I'm really excited to get them done.

    ^ Oh I'm terrified to go to hairhouse warehouse!! But I have huuuge issues with my hair being perfect and I'm always convinced expensive salons are the only way to go... even if it's not true. Tell me if they turn out okay, because then I might go!

    LOL I would never let them touch my hair. I get my hair done at Rokk Ebony. I just go to the salon part for the $5 eye brow waxes.

    There's actually two kinds of eyelash extensions, if this helps clear up any confusion:

    A semi permanent eyelash procedure is one that lasts a fairly long period of time, but does not last indefinitely. Some of these procedures actually extend the lash, and some only have the appearance of extending the lash. Eyelash perming is one that merely gives the appearance of longer and thicker lashes. In reality this semi permanent eyelash solution just gives the illusion of thickness and length. Eyelash extensions, however, actually add length and volume to the lashes.

    For an eyelash extension semi permanent solution, the extension is actually placed onto the natural lash in order to add length and a thicker look to the eyelashes overall. With proper application and bonding, the extensions stay on as long as the natural lash remains. While the procedure can last up to two months or more, it is recommended that you have touch ups every three weeks in order to keep the lashes looking filled in and natural. If you are only getting this solution once for a special occasion, it is recommended that you go in to have any remaining extensions removed after two or three weeks in order to prevent patchiness as the natural lashes adhere to their normal cycle.

    A permanent eyelash solution is one that lasts a lifetime. Because natural lashes fall out, the only permanent eyelash solution is surgical implants. This procedure requires a graft from another part of the body, usually the nape of the neck. The hairs from this area are then transplanted, each individually, to the upper eyelid. These hairs will not ever fall out, as do eyelashes. However, they do need to be trimmed, as they will continue to grow. This procedure adds volume to the eyelashes, and can add some length if allowed to grow a little longer than the natural lashes. The procedure is done under local anesthetic, and usually takes right around an hour to complete.


    More here. There's some other cool options there and loads of information.
