| - Okay it is very rare that I ever give 2 stars but I feel like the community needs to be aware.
It is not my first time getting eyelash extensions, but it is my first time experiencing a form of non-infectious conjunctivitis from getting eyelash extensions.
First and foremost my tech Ali was so sweet, personable, and I clicked with her from the beginning.
She explained the lash sizes and curl that I was getting which I really appreciated.
But my purpose for this review is not to bash the company, but to educate that eyelash extensions do have some complications.
Natalie, one of the staff that worked there actually told me in person, it's normal and it happens.
So shout out to the people with this eye issue from eyelash extensions because it hurts, burns, and my headaches are insane!
I've known about eyelash extensions for a while and gotten them done multiple times without this problem.
I was told the culprit is from the undereye pads and its application; however, during my appointment the eyelash glue is what was the most irritating thing ever. The fumes were stronger than I've ever had, and I don't have sensitive eyes.
It may have been the pads, but in my honest opinion the chemical fumes of the glue may have caused it.
I did tear a bit during the application and that is no problem, but please do me the favor of wiping my tears off my face since I really can't because my eyes are taped down.
I did go and see Natalie and asked what happened and what would have caused this reaction, but she was busy and couldn't really talk. She then sent me a text reassuring me it's nothing and not to panic. "Take eye drops for the next couple of days and it should be fine." I did really appreciate the communication, but the fact of the matter is I had this eye issue.
Other variables that may have contributed to the eye issue might be:
- Twitchiness. I was told I was eye "twitchy." Yes my eyes twitch when you get close to it or near it, and honestly that's normal because it's a reflex. I'd be a bit worried if I didn't have that.
- I had to be taped down good under my eyes but it never seemed like a problem elsewhere.
But other than my eye issue here is a little run down of the place:
Pros:
- it is cute small clean room
- comfy and soft linens
- various lash sizes and curls
- my lashes were alright
- they were able to squeeze me in and did their best to get me an appointment
- their company cell phone is such a convenience and I really liked that.
Cons:
- The glue fumes
- I never got a cool down on my eyes. So right after application my eyes were on fire.
- I wish prices were priced by tech experience. I dished $200 bucks for an okay lash job and an eye irritation. I would expect paying $200 that I would get at least a better and more professional treatment.
-Definitely pricier than other places
-Not once did I see anyone hand sanitize or wash their hands
-I really had high hopes for this place.
Others may think I'm over reacting but this is the eye we are talking about.
How would you feel if you payed $200 bucks just to have your eyes hurting in the end?
Do your research and remember that sometimes the price tag does not correlate to how much competency the company or technician has.
