Falsies Vs Lash Extensions – What is right for you?
In the world of eyelash enhancement, extensions, and falsies are the two most popular options, each with its own set of pros and cons. Let’s delve into the debate: Extensions vs. Falsies – Which is the ultimate lash solution?
What is the difference?
“Falsies”, also known as fake lashes or artificial lashes, are synthetic or natural hair fibers attached to a strip or individual clusters. They are designed to be worn over the natural eyelashes to enhance their length, thickness, and volume.
“Lash extensions” are semi-permanent synthetic fibers or hair fibers individually adhered to natural eyelashes using a special adhesive. Unlike falsies, which are temporary and applied with adhesive directly to the skin along the lash line, lash extensions are attached to each natural lash, enhancing their length, thickness, and curl
Convenience
Are you tired of spending hours each morning applying false lashes or struggling with lash glue mishaps? Or maybe you dream of waking up every day with effortlessly full and fluttery lashes.
Let’s break it down:
Applying falsies takes about 10-15 minutes each morning.
Lash extensions take around 2 hours per session and last 4-6 weeks.
In simple terms, applying falsies daily adds up to 5 hours over 30 days (10 minutes x 30 days). On the other hand, a single 2-hour lash extension session covers you for the entire month.
If you value convenience, lash extensions are the way to go. Plus, if you often snooze your alarm, you can take a lash nap during your appointment and enjoy more sleep in the mornings. Make the right choice, eliminate the need for daily mascara, and save time in your makeup routine.

Customization
False lashes come in a variety of styles, lengths, and densities, offering some level of customization. However, they are still mass-produced and can’t be perfectly tailored to each individual.
Lash extensions, on the other hand, can be customized in terms of length, curl, and thickness to achieve either a natural or dramatic look. At DR. LASH, we go beyond standard customization by personalizing each set of lashes to match our clients’ unique features. Our trained lash technicians consider every client’s distinct features to create the perfect look. They can even modify our existing designs to fit your preferences.

Cost
False lashes are generally less expensive than lash extensions, but frequent use can make the cost add up. Conversely, lash extensions have a higher initial cost but can be more cost-effective in the long run due to their longevity. They do, however, require regular maintenance to keep them looking their best. Professionally applied lash extensions can last several weeks, depending on the natural lash growth cycle.
Consider:
“Au Natirel” lashes at $98 before GST,
or “Aphrodite” lashes for a more voluminous look at $138 before GST
While the cost of lash extensions might seem comparable to falsies, at DR. LASH, we prioritize convenience for you.
Ultimately, the choice between falsies and lash extensions depends on personal preference, budget, and lifestyle. Falsies offer flexibility and a lower initial cost for occasional use, while lash extensions provide a longer-lasting solution with more natural-looking results.
Regardless of your choice, proper aftercare is crucial to prevent damage to natural lashes. DR. LASH offers lash rejuvenation to restore your lashes to health. Learn more about this service here!
Did you know that each of our lashes, like our hair, grows at different speeds? At DR. LASH, our individual lashing technique allows your lashes to grow naturally without impeding their growth. Although falsies are applied only during the day, our lashes grow continuously. When multiple natural lashes are glued together, as with falsies, it can impede growth. Careless removal of falsies can also damage your natural lashes and cause skin sagging over time due to the weight on your eyelids. Lash extensions, however, are applied 0.1mm away from your lash line, directly on the lash, ensuring comfort and preventing eyelid sagging over time.
Why spend money on treatments when you can get beautiful lashes the healthier way? With a commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction, DR. LASH provides a luxurious and transformative experience. Visit our website to book an appointment today!
