I've removed my eyelash extensions - left with bald & short lashes

I took them off as every time a lash came out I lost my own lashes. I filled them in with cluster lashes & they looked ok but it's time to remove them.
I was warned not to get them done. I am a beauty therapist & did all the correct aftercare. I'm glad I tried them but never again. I have bought some grow lash serum & hopefully can make them look decent with some mascara. If anyone is thinking of getting them done don't do it.

This has happened every time for me, just a hazard with them isn't it? Bit like acrylics and nails.

I did find though that when mine grew back they grew back longer and thicker. My stylist took before photos of my eyelashes and when I compare now they're much better.

Just wanted to say thank you all to everyone. I used castor oil and rapid lash and my eyelashes are great again. I never thought I would have a full set again. False eyelashes should come with a disclaimer!

To note, properly applied lash extensions that are looked after properly do NOT damage the lashes. However, frequently people are shocked at their natural lashes after not seeing them natural for a while and this can make you think they aren’t as good.

I’ve not had any damage in the last 8+ years of using them on and off.

Use revitalash. Not cheap but it works
