Are Strip Lashes Better Than Extensions?

When it comes to enhancing the look of your eyes, there are a variety of options available. One popular choice is to use either strip lashes or extensions. But which method is better? In this blog post, we’ll explore the pros and cons of both strip lashes and extensions so that you can make an informed decision about which one is right for you.

The Pros and Cons of Strip Lashes

Strip lashes are a great way to instantly add length, volume, and drama to your eyes. They’re easy to apply and can be removed quickly when you’re ready to take them off. However, there are some drawbacks to using strip lashes. For one, they don’t last as long as extensions do. Additionally, they can be uncomfortable if not applied properly or if they don’t fit your eyes correctly. Practice makes perfect with strip lashes, once you have the knack you will be applying strip lashes in no time.

The Pros and Cons of Extensions

Extensions are a more permanent option for enhancing the look of your eyes. They can last up to three weeks with proper care and maintenance, making them a great choice for those who want longer-lasting results. However, extensions require more time and effort than strip lashes do in order to apply them correctly. Additionally, they can be expensive depending on where you get them done and the type of extensions you choose.

Which Is Better: Strip Lashes or Extensions?

Ultimately, the decision between strip lashes or extensions depends on what kind of look you’re going for and how much time and money you’re willing to invest in achieving it. If you want a quick fix that won’t break the bank, then strip lashes may be the way to go. But if you want something more long-lasting that will give you dramatic results, then extensions may be worth considering.

Which method is best for occasions?

This is entirely down to the individual and their preferences. Some people may prefer having lash extensions done if they're going on holiday. Some may have the view that doing this will negate the necessity to wear mascara or strip lashes and wake up looking pretty! However some may prefer to use a particular lash style for an occasion, for example having a more dramatic lash like our 06 or 02 lashes for a party or a super natural lash like our 01's for a wedding.
