[quote=Anonymous]I had extensions for three years before covid, starting when my middle child was just a few months old. IMO it’s the best beauty thing for a busy mom. Refills only take an hour once every three weeks, and once I was more comfortable with my technician, I’d typically show up and fall asleep within 5 minutes! It was the best nap ever. And I loved that the lashes made me look just a bit done up without doing ANYTHING on a daily basis. I basically only wore tinted lip balm and my lash extensions, and my face looked put together. Huge time saver in the morning.

I had them removed at the start of covid, and yeah, my lashes looked short and stubby for about two months. But that’s normal, and they grow back.

For the last year I’ve been getting lash lifts every 8 weeks - far less maintenance and I like that they don’t look bad if you miss an appointment (lash extensions do require upkeep). But lash lifts don’t look quite as good as extensions and I think are far more damaging to lashes (since it uses a perm solution). Eyelash extensions, when done right, are not really damaging at all.[/quote]
