Why to Consider Eyelash Extensions

Posted in Beauty on March 8th, 2010 by Jim – Comments Off

It seems that there is a new fashion statement spreading rapidly around the globe. The rich, the famous and those who simply want to save a little time, are all trying eyelash extensions. Whilst this sounds like it might be a rather unpleasant experience, generally those who have ventured down this route are hooked.

To achieve longer and thicker eyelashes without the use of mascara seems a dream come true. However, the process of adding eyelash extensions is a long one. Typically it can take around one and a half to two hours to achieve the full, well defined look. But when you consider how long you spend applying mascara, and hopefully removing it again at the end of the day, then this is two hours well spent.

Eyelash extensions need to be applied by a professional as each individual lash is glued to your own existing eyelash. You couldn’t possibly undertake this job yourself. Not least because your lower lid will be taped down whilst this process is underway. Although this sounds awful, it isn’t. The entire process is painless and in fact many people use the time to just lie back and relax.

The new lashes are semi permanent and typically last for up to 12 weeks although it should be noted that to last this long you will need to have them retouched every 2-3 weeks. Unlike false eyelashes, which tend to be added in a strip, eyelash extensions certainly look more natural.

Once the treatment is complete you can wear contact lenses or glasses without any problems and you don’t need to apply mascara every day. You can even choose the length and color of your new eyelashes, up to 14mm, so whether you simply want to recreate your normal look without the hassle, or make a bold new statement, the options are there.

If you are interested in cosmetics in general then you might also want to take a look at getting an eyebrow tattoo. This is another thing which will improve your looks and make your life a little easier. Consider however that this is a permanent procedure and is difficult to reverse, unlike when you try eyelash extensions. For this reason you will want to learn all about the procedure and eyebrow tattoo removal before you take the plunge.
