Talk to me about Eye Lash Extensions
My lashes that were once long & beautiful now suck! They are falling out, and I hate the spaces in between. I've been considering getting the Eye Lash Extensions.
What's the maintenance like? How often do you have to go? Do you still wear eye makeup? TIA

Talk to me about Eye Lash Extensions
I had them for about four months and probably would not get them again.
Most people say you can go 3 weeks between fills. I used to go every 2 weeks for my fills because between weeks 2-3 they didn't look so great anymore. Each time it took like 1.5 hours. I got sick of going - it became such a chore, and it's not a cheap habit.
I found them somewhat high maintenance. I would avoid sleeping on my stomach (and I am a stomach sleeper) and you do have to be gentle when you wash them. You can only use oil free eye makeup remover. I was kind of just always "aware" of them and overly cautious of them with everything I did, and it got annoying.
You can wear eyeshadow and liner, but you aren't supposed to wear mascara. This was hard for me because I'm a big eye makeup person - esp. if I am going out somewhere - and I love my dark mascara. I mean you CAN wear it - but in removing it, you're much more likely to knock out the lashes.
I eventually removed mine b/c my lash line got super dry and irritated for some reason. Unfortunately my natural lashes weren't in great shape when I removed them. But that was a few months ago and they're back to normal now.
Don't get me wrong, they look good - and it's great to wake up and have your lashes look fantastic - but overall it wasn't really for me. Now I just put on falsie strips if I'm getting really dressed up for any reason!

My sis uses lash boost and it really did work for her. She even felt they were too long at one point, she just had to make sure she curled them.

Pretty much the same. I am a side sleeper. No issue, I did get a silk pillow case like they recommended. I go in Great Neck. I like not having to wear any makeup on the weekends and still feel pretty.
