I've been waiting to give my review on Cherry Lash Lounge for quite some time now. Being that I am finally on yelp I feel that time is now. I've been coming here for about 6 months and I feel I can give an honest and unbiased opinion.
Let me start by telling you that I have super fine blonde hair. This means that my eye lashes are super light/very fine. I was extremely hesitant when I first got my lashes done. I thought either I wouldn't have enough and I would end up looking like a clown or since I have sensitive skin that surely I would have an allergic reaction to the bond used on the lash extensions.
I booked my original appointment with Courtney for a 2 hour Ravishing set. I arrived, very nervous back in November. Surely I was going to look like some freak with super dark lashes that just didn't fit my personality or style. I didn't know how I was going to lay with my eyes closed with some bright light laying directly on my face for 2 whole hours!!?? Let me tell you that Courtney was so nice and so calm. She asked what I was hoping to achieve and to be quite honest I didn't know. I told her to make me look like me just better. To my surprise the 2 hours flew by! Courtney handed me a mirror and I sat in shock at what my eyes looked like with no mascara! They were amazing!
Courtney gave me instructions on how to clean my eyes and that I needed to be careful with them. I wondered how I would ever get by without rubbing my eyes?? Well 6 months later and I haven't rubbed my eyes one time. If you are an eye rubber you simply learn not to do it. It's not a big deal.
I shower daily and my lashes to get wet. I don't rub my eyes in the shower and when I dry off I am careful not to allow the towel to touch my lashes. I let my lashes dry and then use the lash brush I was sent home with.
Sometimes I will use a black eyeshadow and line my eyes with it. It just makes them stand out for a more intense look. I never wear mascara as it's just not necessary anymore. These lashes make life so much easier! I leave one lash brush in my car for the times when something might be out of place.
I have seen a total of 4 technicians in the 6 months I've been coming to Cherry Lash Lounge. I will say my 2 favorite are Courtney and Linda. I am currently seeing Linda as her schedule works with mine. She comes in at 9:00 and I like that. She's absolutely awesome! I went in a little over a month ago and was not happy with my last appointment(I don't remember the girl who I had seen previously). Linda was understanding and heard my concerns. She was patient and diligent durning this appointment. My lashes looked great and lasted longer than any other time. Linda and Courtney are pros and know what they are doing. They apply the lashes to last for longer than a few weeks. I was in again today and Linda remembered what I had "complained" about the previous appointment which in my mind means she cares about her customers. She is very secure about what she does and it is evident at the end of your appointment. My eyes have never looked better!
The lounge is very pleasant and upbeat. You are laying in a very comfortable recliner durning your appointment with a soft blanket if you get cold. The front office staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. They call you by name which is really nice as they see so many people and the time in between appointments can be a while! They offer you bottled water too which is a plus!
Make sure you don't miss or cancel your appointment within 24 hours as you will be charged for half the cost of the missed appointment. I find this a fair policy as time is money! I've had to cancel one time and while I didn't want to pay I understood and did not hesitate when reminded of the policy. I was sick and it didn't make sense to make anyone else sick.
I would recommend Cherry Lash Lounge for their professionalism and expertise.
