If you ask the average French woman what the most important product in her makeup bag is - the answer would most likely be mascara. French women know that even if you only have a minute to throw on some makeup, good lashes can make or break the look.

While some people are blessed with full, thick, long lashes, most of us need a bit of a boost. In the past, that meant eyelash curlers and mascara. Nowadays, there are even more options with magnifying mascaras, growth serums, eyelash tints, lifts, and more.

At Beauty Obsession Salon and Spa, we offer several eyelash treatments to help you get gorgeous, fluttering eyelashes. One of the most popular lashes options is eyelash extensions. Our spa is the top pick if you need an eyelash extension in 11235 or the adjacent zip codes.

What are Eyelash Extensions?

Lash extensions have been popular for years, but many people still don’t exactly understand what they are. An eyelash extension treatment is a process of gluing individual semi-permanent lashes to your existing lashes to give you a fuller, thicker, longer, and more glamorous look.

Eyelash extensions are very customizable, making them great for nearly everyone - whether you are looking for a bold, dramatic look or just a bit of natural enhancement.

The extensions themselves are created to look like individual lash hairs. They are made of many different materials - synthetic, mink, faux mink, or silk fibers. The lashes are also offered in various lengths and with varying levels of curl or strengths.

How are Eyelash Extensions Applied?

For someone who has never had eyelash extensions, there can be a misconception that the process is similar to sticking on your average store-bought fake lashes. This could not be further from the truth. The process of applying eyelash extensions is much more in-depth, and it is important that you always have a professional apply the extensions.

At Beauty Obsession, our salon team averages 15+ years of experience with 15+ certified specialists covering all your salon and spa needs. Our lash artists are especially well trained with a lot of experience in eyelash extensions.

When you visit Beauty Obsession, our lash artists will first help you with a free evaluation. We can help you decide on a lash look during this discussion - from a natural, delicate look to bold, glamorous lashes.

Once you decide on a look, the lash artist will prep and clean the area. We recommend not wearing makeup for the appointment and also wearing something comfortable. Depending on the lash look you want, applying the lash extensions can take anywhere from 45 minutes to close to 2 hours.

The eyelash extensions will be individually applied to each of your natural lashes using a specialty formula glue. Once dry, your lashes will look fuller, thicker, and darker for up to 4 weeks.
