I will write more later as I am going to ER. But let this be noted, that this place is DEADLY and TOXIC. Nevermind that the lashes were okay, for HEALTH HAZARD reasons, I would NOT recommend this place to anyone that values their health!
So let's start from the beginning, as this is a HONEST report, because I only write honest, unexaggerated reviews...
As I lay on the table to get my lashes done, it was about 10 minutes into it, that suddenly the girl asked the other girl for the "owner's glue" (that was mistake number one). From there she turned the small fan on, which 3 minutes later my nose and throat were instantly burning and my eyes were watering. I asked her to move then fan to not blow directly on me, and she CONTINUED to let it sit there and blow DIRECTLY on me, blowing toxic fumes down my nose, throat and sinuses for TWO hours. Eventually, I had to ask for a blanket to cover my nose from the fumes. Did the girl ever say anything or realize that I was uncomfortable? NO, not at all.
I was squirming and having a hard time breathing, and all she said was "We're almost done", so I trusted her and continued suffocating. When we were finally done, tears started rolling down my eyes, my throat and nose were both on fire, like never before!
I am pretty sure, as I was paying she knew she had F'd up, because she didn't say anything at all, and rushed me out the door.
Sadly, my eyes were watering so badly, and my throat was in such pain, I had to sit for 20 minutes in my car blasting cold FRESH air in eyes and throat. When looking into my throat in the mirror it was COMPLETELY RED and RAW!!!
When I could eventually somewhat see well enough to drive, I rushed home and drank a bunch of milk to attempt to coat my throat, but it was too late. That was only to be the beginning of my hell...
I have been bedridden for 3 days so far. The dangerously high temperatures (over 103), feeling spacey, disoriented and sleepy left me unable to get to the ER, until yesterday, when the diagnosis came in that i had LARYNGITIS caused by the toxic fumes!
I am a MODEL and a SINGER, and now I can barely SPEAK! I am in tears as I write this, because I do not know to what extent the damage has been done by this unprofessional place, and if will ever be able to sing and perform again, and I had gigs lined up. This is truly devastating!
I have had eyelash extensions 6 other times before, NEVER a problem EVER!
One, they care, and two they use quality odorless glue! (write me, I will tell you were to go, and this woman I normally go to, her lashes last 6-8 weeks!).
There is a lot more, however my attorney has told me to rest and put in it his report, so that is just what I will do.
Update: JANUARY 21
Not only is this business owner falsifying claims to protect herself, she has the audacity to call me a liar. By saying I "refused the fans" which is a blatant lie!!!
Your technician KEPT it on! In fact all she did was turn it slightly, as it continued to blow in my face!
You're not a doctor, so please don't try to be one!
LARYNGITIS is caused by IRRITATION and INFLAMMATION of the throat. NOT the flu as you would like to claim.
I'm NOT ALLERGIC to anything. So please don't try once again to buffer your business to try and make yourself look good by falsely accusing me of being allergic to your glue. This has NOTHING to do with allergies! SHAME ON YOU
And no offer for a refund, despite me even including a $10 tip! Your solution is come back in and take them off for me. Like I would ever set foot near there again!!!
All the owner cares about is making sure she looks good and not take responsibility for the problem and there serious damages that have ensued.
