Oh My Lash: My first time trying out Eyelash Extensions

Eyelash Extensions has been in the market for years already, and right now there are so many salons out there that offers Eyelash Extensions, which in fact, would make us wonder, who amongst these salons offer good quality service with an affordable price … of course.

I started my “journey” by canvassing shops by shops that offer lash extensions inside malls and most of them are priced 800 php and higher _{(not for me)} so I searched and searched, googled and everything until I stumbled upon Oh My Lash. And eventually, it caught my attention ‘coz of its affordable price, customers feedback, before & after photos and good reviews_{(these factors are my key points when I go over online shops. To be sure they are trusted and just really being cautious)} so with these things checked, I contacted the salon immediately.

_{PS: I can’t really compare which salon is better from the other so I’ll just base my review on my EXPERIENCE}

Oh My Lash was launched in June 10, 2012, rapidly growing as one of the trusted eyelash extension in Mandaluyong City. Years after, they branched out in the different provinces in the Philippines. They claim that they are one of the few to first offer specialized extension services. They uses high grade quality adhesive, removers and eyelashes by a trusted supplier from South Korea.

Oh My Lash has two branches in Cebu,

1. A.S Fortuna Branch _{(Is where I went)} – located beside Oakridge Business Park
2. N. Bacalso Branch

Upon entering, I was greeted by their lovely staff and asked me what lash type I like. She even checked my lashes to see what type of lash suits me and recommended that I choose short thick lash, so I go ahead and did what she said. After I have decided what lash type I would get, she kindly requests me to wait a minute then she went ahead and prepared the things needed.

I entered into the “operating room” and let me lie down into a small “bed”. I was so excited and obediently followed the intructions from the lovely lady. I closed my eyes, then right after, she put masking tape on my lids! I was like, REALLY? Masking tape? But I just shrugged the idea off as long as the results are good. Here are some of the pics during the procedure.

I felt so comfortable during the process, I even fell asleep half of the time! The lady’s hands are so light you can’t almost feel it plus the bed and blanket are so warm. The process took about an hour. We started 11:40 am and finished 12:30 pm.

Upon check out, they gave me a Thank you card and let me take a look of the rates for the retouch as shown below

_{PS: Having eyelash extensions is not a joke. I struggled for the first day on how to wash my face without it getting damaged}

Will I ever do it again? – Yes, maybe. I love the idea of waking up every morning with my lashes on point!

Do you have plans on having lash extensions? If you’re into beauty like me, it’s definitely a fun experience to try out. But don’t overdo it, according to my research, it is advisable to have lash extensions 4 times a year since it might stern the growth of your own lashes. And we don’t want that right? Despite this instant beautification, we still have to take care of our own lashes.

Overall, the experience is great! the process is a comfortable one. But the "painful" part is when the procedure is done. The chemical ( glue ) is still in the process of drying so its stinging the eyes making it hard to open up. Plus 100 thick lashes on top of your natural lashes is kinda heavy.

You can contact Oh My Lash by calling, texting or DM-ing them. They respond quickly to inquiries which is also great about them!

And that’s it guys! I hope you enjoyed reading my blog.

Create and Inspire,
