I have never written a review on Yelp but thought I must after my experience last weekend. Last Friday, I was going to purchase a Groupon for classic eyelash extensions for my daughter and myself. For those who may not know, classic eyelash extensions are where one artificial lash is applied to every natural lash, and the process usually takes 1-1.5 hours. Before buying, I called to see if there were appointments available on Saturday. There were until I mentioned the Groupon. However, they said that the wait for Groupons was 15-20 days, but they could see me the on Saturday for an additional $10 on top of the Groupon price. This should have been a red flag for sketchy business practices especially once we got there and no one was there before or after us (a couple of people did come in while we were in there). Since this was still a decent price, we scheduled the appointment. Once we got there, I will say that the two ladies were very nice the entire time. However, one suggested to my daughter that another type of lashes would look/work much better for her since she has thin eyelashes (she told me later that her regular eyelash person told her that her thin lashes were the easiest to work with). They glued one cluster of the lashes on and let us look at it. The fact that we agreed to this is our own fault but 1) a single cluster doesn't give you a true feel as to how it looks overall and 2) we trusted the "experts" recommendation. They finished the application in less than 30 minutes each. We got to the car and noticed how horrible they really looked. My daughter has gotten hers done from several other people and they have never looked like this. These looked like cheap grocery store lashes and mine had glue clumps all over the lashes. I truly believe that they recommended these because we were paying a discounted rate and they did not want to spend the time on the lashes. There is NO way that they actually thought they were recommending a superior product and this is unethical and sketchy in my book. If they don't want to offer the Groupon, then they don't need to do so. In less than 2 hours after leaving, my daughter was just standing in line for a dressing room at the mall and one of the lashes started falling off. Before we got to the car, the other did the same thing. I called them, and they offered to fix it but we were not going back there. So, not only did they recommend an inferior product they also did shoddy work. Around midnight that night, I took mine off because they were giving me a headache due to being so heavy. I had at least thought I got a decent eyebrow wax out of the experience until I looked closely in the mirror. It was not good at all and waxing eyebrows is relatively easy (I have done it multiple times). I literally wasted $123 dollars coming here. So, proceed going there with caution. You'd save tons of money to go buy some at the local store.
In the attached picture, you can see some of the clumps of glue and how some lashes look stuck together. The picture actually looks a little better than it did in person. I wish I had taken a better picture of my eyebrows but I had not realized how they looked at the time. You can somewhat tell in the picture that they do not look "clean" and freshly waxed. read more
