It has become rather
popular to have permanent eyelash extensions. Lots of women seem to love the
added volume and the accent on the eyes. There is absolutely nothing wrong with
the concept, but I do have to say that the term permanent is a little misleading,
which I found out recently when talking to an expert who has many clients
asking for eyelash extensions at her London
clinic.
They are actually semi
permanent eyelash extensions, not permanent. They do last a lot longer than the
extension that are labelled temporary, but they are by no means permanent.
There are a number of different techniques that are used, take the eyelash perm
for example. This makes your eyelashes look thicker, but it actually only adds
body to what is there. The effect will last only as long as your eyelashes stay
in place. So, if you decide that you want thicker and longer eyelashes, go for
it.
Just be aware that the
extensions are not going to be permanent, no matter what technique you try. It
is simply not possible to permanently change a constantly changing feature.
There is no doubt that it will look great while it lasts though! Something well
worth spending a little money of every once in a while, as long as you have
realistic expectations and do not break the bank.
My personal experience
I just had my second lot of lashes applied.
Since I’d first tried eyelash extensions a few months before I knew the
method was just like having hair extensions but more sensitive. Artificial lashes
are connected to your own lashes one by one employing specific surgical glue.
You don’t really feel anything, and your eyes are closed the entire time. It’s
really an incredibly soothing procedure.
Once the new lashes are attached you need
to wait a few minutes for the bonding agent to set and then the tiny gems are
glued in place using fine tweezers. The technique is interesting and extremely
fragile. I had my eye shadow with me to guarantee the colour selection would
work. The technician helped me apply it and I picked Swarovski crystals given
that they have so much glitter and shine. My only thought after I saw the
results was that I unquestionably got the wow element.
Decorated eyelashes can make your eyes
look very sexy
I discovered semi-permanent eyelash
extensions some time ago and they’ve worked well for enhancing my eyes. Prior
to Xmas I had invitations to a couple trendy gatherings, and I wished to make a
very big impact. I chose ‘dressing’ my eyes in jewelled lashes would give me
that amazing impress that would turn every head within the room in my direction
and the impact was enormously eye-catching.
The technician didn’t recommend decreased extensions for eyelashes since
they are so hard to keep in, but I preferred them due to this special occasion
but didn’t have got gems put on the bottom set. The result seemed to be
magnificent and my stunning eyes, with their thick, sparkling fringes, appeared
huge.
I also observed I looked a good couple of
years younger which has been an added bonus. Exactly the same as everyday lash
extensions you have to be wary not to get water near your eyes for the first
day. The jewels fail to last as long as eyelash extensions however they lasted
through both parties and I would hardly have preferred jewels on my lashes at
work.
