What would you do if this was you?

Stop wasting money on fripperies and get a hobby?

(IIRC you don't actually listen to advice on here anyway. Didn't you have some hair dying disaster after ignoring advice?)

hmm harsh & uncalled for.

I'm sure your not perfect & have made mistakes. If you haven't, can you give me some constructive tips?

Ignore this, its not a frippery if its important to you and your quite right in your reply that we all make mistakes, thats what this forum is built on, helping others and learning:)

My constructive advice would be forget the salon put it down to a bad experience and get yourself down to Boots, buy some individual extensions, you get loads in a pack for about a fiver or get some strip lashes and cut them in half just applying to the outer corner of the eye to give a lift, forget the glue they come with buy yourself some Revlon glue also from Boots and have a go yourself, its really easy after a few tries, you can customise them to suit you and its much cheaper - best of luck:)

I do my own aswell, normally buy individual Eyelure pack or the packs from Sallys, agree with glowgirl above the glue that comes with them is rubbish, I use the black glue from Sallys/Salon Services, it really is amazing

I'd recommend buying the remover aswell if you're a picker like me. normally when a few of mine have fallen out I tend to pick the others and it results in pulling out my own eyelashes

Oh to have a Sallys near me:drool: Long gone are the days of wasting hours looking at stuff I dont really need but must have *sigh*

Thanks girls, much appreciated.

Your so right, I do need to forget the salon & put it down to a bad experience.

I will certainly consider buying some individual lashes. Problem is I'm so clumsy and not particularly steady handed, but I guess I have nothing to loose if I try them

You won't be perfect at applying them to start with but practise makes perfect. Tweezers and maybe 2 packs of eyelashes :P and some glue and you're good to go.
