Going to Great Lengths for Eyelash Extensions

Eyelash Extensions

We’ve all seen Kim Kardashian’s long gorgeous lashes bat at us from the red carpet.  And, Sofia Vergara’s thick lashes seem to make her stare even fiercer.  How can you get lovely lashes like these ladies? Today your options go beyond dangerous eyelash glue and thick, sticky coats of mascara.

Eyelash extensions are fast becoming the new trend in, well, eyewear? Eyelash extensions are replacing mascara, fake eyelashes, and even the well-known medication Latisse.  Why?  They offer a long-term alternative that doesn’t have to be apply daily, and you can shower or swim in them and still look great.

The extensions are placed on each individual eyelash at the first application, then they need to be refreshed every two or three weeks for maintenance.  During a consultation your stylist can recommend the appropriate length and thickness for your eyelashes.

What seems to make the extensions so popular?  Many women say it’s the convenience factor.  The extensions look great first thing in the morning, never need another coat of mascara, and won’t give you raccoon eyes if you’re caught in the rain.  Some women even say it makes a significant difference in the amount of time they need to get ready.

While the extensions may be convenient, they’re not exactly affordable.  The first application will set you back $200-$300 and maintenance appointments can be around $75.

What do you think about eyelash extensions?   Would you pay the hefty price tag to have perfect eyelashes all the time?
