Julia Dugan-Carr has been one of my closest friends ever since we met in the 6th grade, while we…read morewere both attending Vista Del Mar middle school. Julia is the impressive owner of Lash Helm & wow, what a lovely store it is. Julia has always been naturally talented when it comes to beauty. Like when we were younger, I legitimately would always ask Jewls to work her magic on my hair & makeup, well basically any time that I really wanted to look my absolute best. So, not only is J.D.C. (Julia Dugan-Carr) extremely talented, but she also has a heart of gold!!! So, not only will you leave Lash Helm looking drop dead gorgeous, but you'll also leave Lash Helm feeling wonderful, too! I am super grateful to have Julia as a lifelong friend.‍ If you've been searching for THE best eyelash store around well then look no further because Lash Helm, in downtown San Clemente, is definitely the #1 eyelash shop in all of Orange County, CA.

She listens to your goals and always makes sure to achieve the desired look! We've changed styles a couple times over the past year and I ALWAYS love my lashes. Additionally, Corrine is highly professional and provides excellent customer service. There was a time where my eyes were reacting to the glue we used. I didn't want to give up on lashes and Corrine took extra care and tried to find solutions to my reaction by trying to use a glue for sensitive eyes. I'm happy to say that we found a solution and I haven't had a reaction since! When someone is working on your eyes, you put a lot of trust into them to take care of you. Corrine is absolutely the best and I will follow her wherever she goes!

If you want instagram perfect lashes, go to Alma and get your lashes done! If you don't know what…read moreany of that is, go to https://www.instagram.com/artisticvolumelashes/ and look at the lashes. You can't find any more perfect lashes on instagram than these. I've been getting my lashes done since 2009, way back when they were still unheard of (and thus, my secret super power). As you can imagine, I've had a lot of experiences over the years with different lash technicians. Lots of good, and lots of bad experiences. Still, I find it hard to avoid lash extensions, because they make me look so pretty 24/7 :) I don't really want every girl out there to be pretty and have beautiful eyes, but in my years of experience, I have to support really good lash technicians so they stay in business. I've found my favorite technicians before and kept them a secret from friends and family. But because they didn't get enough clients or whatever, they had to close down shop and work somewhere else. I don't want that to happen to Alma, because it's a real struggle to find someone good at lash extensions especially in Dana Point/San Juan Capistrano area. And yes, I've been to the limited choices you see in the search results for lash extensions in Dana Point/SJC and I was horrified at the awful job I paid for. I immediately regretted it as soon as I saw what they did. No, I don't want to leave negative reviews for that other lash place in DP, but trust me. Don't go anywhere else, but to Alma. Or if you really want to, try a different place and then try Alma. You'll see and feel the difference, literally. I can't speak for San Clemente, but I don't know if they'd be good enough or worth the money. I know for sure that the only thing that matters when finding a lash extension place or technician is that they have to know what they're doing and do it well with quality products. Because if you go somewhere cheap or someone inexperienced/careless/distracted, your lashes can feel really uncomfortable, look obviously fake, don't look any different, you can get an eye infection or irritation or allergy. Or worse --- look absolutely horrifying with spider legs looking eyelashes. Some ladies don't realize that their lashes are not applied well and they don't know the difference. If you look at Alma's work, you will know that lashes are supposed to look natural. Long, beautiful, lush, and voluminous lashes, without obviously looking like you had something done. It's hard to explain, but you have to look at the pictures of her work to see it. That's what you should look for in your lash extensions, you can't tell the lashes are fake. Alma uses very light weight lashes and the lashes are super comfortable, I forget I even have lashes on sometimes. If you've never had lash extensions before, I suggest googling it and doing your best research on the pros and cons. There are some serious points to consider before trying lash extensions for the first time or even the hundredth time. For one, lash extensions are kind of addicting. And two, although it's nice to just wake up pretty, you still have to take care of the lashes. Avoid eye makeup. Absolutely no mascara (not that you'll need it if it's applied correctly). Wash around your eyes. Don't rub your eyes. Don't touch your lashes unnecessarily. Don't sleep on the side of your face. Brush your lashes gently with a tiny brush. No oil based makeup or oil based facial products at all. Stay away from heat like an oven or when the chef at Benihana sets the volcano onion on fire. Apply lash growth serum to minimize lash thinning. And you'll need a "refill" of lash extensions in a few weeks. Yes, I want to be pretty all of the time and it's made possible by lash extensions. If you can look your best all of the time, why not? And with minimal effort! But you know, you do you. We don't all have to be pretty ;)

If you are looking for gorgeous eyelash extensions in Laguna Niguel, you have to check out Sophia…read moreat Coco Lash! From the moment you walk into the salon, the environment is incredibly relaxing, clean, and welcoming. Sophia takes the time to actually listen to what you want and customizes the set to perfectly fit your eye shape. She does a beautiful job whether you're looking for a natural Classic look or a glamorous Volume/Hybrid set. Here is what I love most about getting my lashes done by her: * Feather-Light Comfort: Her lashes are so lightweight and comfortable that I completely forget I'm wearing them. No irritation, no heaviness - just flawless, high-quality lashes. * Gentle Application: Her hands are so light, I almost ended up taking a "lash nap" while she worked her magic. I am currently recovering from a procedure with tape over my nose, and thanks to Sophia, I still feel completely beautiful and put together! The lashes do all the heavy lifting. If you want long-lasting, meticulously applied, and absolutely stunning lash extensions in OC, I highly recommend booking with Sophia at Coco Lash!
