Eyelash extentions

Now most people must of heard of eyelash extensions, they come under many brand names the first being Hollywood lashes, then companies followed like nouveau, lash perfect and the list can go on.
They are great for people with short straight lashes that want to have long thick curled lashes, but also great for people that have long lashes already that are looking for more of a glamorous look that you can't get from a tint and a perm. The lash technician should tailor make the lash look to you personally, using your own lashes and your desired look as a template. The lashes there selves come in many different lengths, curls and thicknesses. Depending on the strength of your natural lashes you can go as thick and long as you want! 
The lash extensions are literally like your natural lash, so they are adhered to an individual natural lash which gives them their natural look unlike individual lash clusters (bulbed lashes).
The only downfall to lash extensions is they need infilling. Due to the natural eyelash growth they grow out taking the extension out with it. So every 2-3 weeks you will need to go back to the salon to get them infilled to keep up to the glamorous amazing looking!
Now what everyone wants to see a few pictures of clients I've done myself!

Dolly lashes, new way to perm


Well here goes my first post!
So has anyone heard about perming hair? Well did you know you can perm eyelashes aswell? I know strange right?!
Dolly lashes the new way to perm your lashes!
Perming eyelashes is a great alternative to eyelash extentions, as your using your own eyelashes to enhance your eyes, which is perfect for those who don't want the fuss of lash extensions.
Ways are changing for eyelash perming, making the lashes look longer than ever! All thanks to one small change, the rod.
Using a mild glue (ok for your eyes obviously) to stick your lashes to a rod, then covering the lashes in a special lash perm solution, leaving it to develop, then covering in a setting solution, would still give you lovely curled lashes, the new dolly lash pads are revolutionary!(From a professional point of view)
Dolly lashes which is similar to nouveau LvL uses the pads to lift right from the root of you lashes giving them that extra bit of lash to really make those eyes pop.

As you can see from the pictures of my client they really do make a difference. 
Now these should last from 6-8 weeks and are great before semi permanent mascara(which I will do a post on soon) there is no fussy aftercare just to nourish the lashes, which we should all do anyway! 
They cost around £40+ depending on area and salon, in our salon they are £40 and I think that is very reasonable for up to 8 weeks of awesomeness!
