They say your eyes are the windows to your soul. If that’s true, then your eyelashes are the frames. Having naturally full, thick, long lashes is most women’s dream. If that’s not the case for you, eyelash extensions are here to help.
Imagine waking up with gorgeous lashes every morning. That’s life with an eyelash extension. Extensions give your eyelashes dimension, fullness, a permanent curl, color, and length. They can help you drastically cut down on the time you spend on your morning beauty routine. Plus, they look great all the time – from the gym to the office to date night – with little to no work.

We find most clients want to know a bit more about the process of getting eyelash extensions before booking an appointment. To help, we have put together this quick 101 guide.
What are Eyelash Extensions?
To start, let’s cover what exactly are eyelash extensions. An eyelash extension is a semipermanent “lash” that is hand glued to your natural eyelashes. The “lashes” are most often made of silk, mink, or a synthetic material. In each case, the lash is designed to match the look of a natural human eyelash.
The eyelash extensions come in different shapes and lengths and are applied in different ways to get unique looks. Since the lashes are placed by hand, individually or in small sections, they are easier to customize for each client’s eye shape and desired eyelash look.
How Long Do They Last?
Since eyelash extensions are glued to your natural lashes, they will last about as long as your eyelashes do before falling out with proper care. Natural eyelash hairs tend to grow out for about 6-8 weeks before falling out and regrowing.
With this in mind, it’s a good idea to book a touch up of your lashes every 6-8 weeks as well. Our eyelash extension technicians in Brooklyn can fill in the lashes that have grown out and add extra lash extensions where needed. With proper care and followup appointments, you can keep your eyelash extensions indefinitely.
Eyelash Extension Options
As mentioned before, with eyelash extensions, you can customize the look of your eyelashes. Unlike strip lashes, eyelash extensions are individually glued on, allowing for a more natural or customized look.
When considering eyelash extensions, you should first talk to the extension technician about your desired look. At Beauty Obsession, we offer free consultations to help you find the perfect eyelash look for your lifestyle, eye shape, and based on your preferences.
Basically, you will be able to customize your look by choosing an eyelash extension length, curl, and your desired density of lashes. You can go from a subtle, natural look with just a few extra lashes to a bold, model look with extra long and thick lashes.
