Yours look great! I went for my first touch up and came out feeling wonderful again. I can't deny the feeling of looking like I am alive right after rolling out of the bed :)</p> <p>Maybe techniques vary but my lady explained that some fall out as your lashes grow so when she does the retouch they naturally intersperse and there never really is a time when she had to remove all of them and start over. I went about 3 weeks between appointments. My touch up only cost $20 so I am thinking seriously to do what you did and leave them on and just make it part of my beauty routine maintenance. It also saves me time as I don't wear much if any eye makeup now, maybe a swipe of eyeshadow and that's it. </p> <p>Keep me posted and thanks for chiming in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1593786 Wed, 16 Dec 2015 06:40:43 +0000 Hil 1593786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Saw this post and had to chime in even though I've been silent on the forum for so long. I got extensions done at a minimal cost in July (the girl doing them needed a Guinea Pig to practice on to complete her qualification) and I've kept them up ever since. I go for a fill once every three weeks. I keep thinking I should give my lashes a break but I love the effect so much that keep delaying getting them removed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1590251 Sat, 05 Dec 2015 01:12:21 +0000 Anonymous 1590251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! I love your lashes. Maybe it's worth the upkeep?<br />Really good info on the upkeep--I had no idea about that.&nbsp;</p> <p>If I had to pick though, I would rather upkeep lashes than nails, I think.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1589309 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 17:17:04 +0000 AviaMariah 1589309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them! &nbsp;This is something I'd love to do but the maintenance puts me off right now. Enjoy them!!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1589261 Wed, 02 Dec 2015 14:27:13 +0000 abc 1589261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks lisap for chiming in. &nbsp;This is my first set so I'm just experimenting. &nbsp;</p> <p>I really DO love the way I can roll out of bed and LOOK alive (even though I feel otherwise). &nbsp;They do a lot to open up my face. &nbsp;I don't feel bad running around with no makeup on with these babies on. &nbsp;</p> <p>My estetician (sp) told me every 3-4 weeks for touchups but I guess it depends on the materials and methods used. &nbsp;I've had maybe 4-5 fall out already - they are individual lashes and I tried to see where they came from but couldn't pinpoint it. &nbsp;I am quite rough on my nails and it doesn't surprise me I'd be less than gentle with these. &nbsp;Actually it happened last night bc they told me to use face cleansing cloths but I didn't have any and had to use a regular washcloth - guess I should follow instructions better.</p> <p>I'm a little worried about the possible damage/regrowth situation once taking them off. &nbsp;I guess I'll see soon enough. &nbsp;I am debating taking them off vs doing the retouch. &nbsp;For me the retouch costs only about $20 so it's def not cost prohibitive, but time could be the killer. &nbsp;We'll see &nbsp;In the meantime I will enjoy batting my long lashes........wa ha ha !!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1588093 Fri, 27 Nov 2015 21:25:44 +0000 Anonymous 1588093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A full set lasts about 2 weeks before you start needing touchups. They start to fall out at that point - gradually though. &nbsp;So, once you start this , and if you are committed to keeping the look, it's every 2 or so weeks &nbsp;- just the way you have to maintain gel nails etc. &nbsp;The downside? &nbsp;Once you stop the upkeep and just let them fall out naturally..... It takes several weeks for your lashes to look decent again - what you're left with are very short and fine baby lashes that grew in while the other hairs had the extensions glued to them. &nbsp;I was pretty shocked when I saw what was there after I stopped . &nbsp;I had been warned about it by a friend , but figured " oh, that won't happen to me " etc...</p> <p>The whole process is costly - just like everything else it seems :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1588081 Fri, 27 Nov 2015 20:23:57 +0000 catgirl 1588081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great! How long do they last? I've been using a Latisse substitute and it works well but not like that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1588052 Fri, 27 Nov 2015 17:52:55 +0000 Anonymous 1588052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>$40? &nbsp;Wow - that's a good price! &nbsp;I have had them a few times and the cost here is far higher. They are addictive, that's for sure, but ended up being too high-maintenance /time -consuming to keep up. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1588026 Fri, 27 Nov 2015 14:52:45 +0000 Beth Ann 1588026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! &nbsp;That's a great treat for a wedding event! &nbsp;Let us know how they hold up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lash-extensions#post-1587998 Fri, 27 Nov 2015 09:20:17 +0000 Anonymous 1587998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, they really pop don't they?

The cost was pretty minimal (at least compared to what I suspect they cost elsewhere). I'm growing to like them. I also got my first facial in ages at the same time. I fell asleep in the chair needless to say. </p> <p>What do you think? Worth it? Any feedback welcome. I'm not tied to them. Just decided to try them for the wedding we are in this weekend as something different. </p> <p>Warning - no makeup photo taken in bright sunlight I am a brave woman for posting this, right?! </p>
