GOOD VS BAD LASHES

How to Tell If You’re Getting Good vs Bad Lashes | BéLashii

If you’re investing in eyelash extensions, you want to make sure you’re getting the best. At BéLashii in West Saint Paul, Minnesota, we believe every lash set should enhance your natural beauty while keeping your lashes healthy. Unfortunately, not all lash services are created equal. So how can you tell if your eyelash extensions are good—or if they’re damaging and poorly done? Here’s a breakdown to help you spot wether you are getting good vs bad lashes.


Signs of Good Eyelash Extensions ✅

When you’re getting quality eyelash extensions, you’ll notice:

1. Comfortable & Lightweight Feel

Good lash extensions should feel soft and weightless. You shouldn’t feel pulling, poking, or heaviness on your lids.

2. Individually Applied Extensions

A skilled lash artist applies one extension to one natural lash. This keeps your lashes healthy, prevents clumping, and creates a natural yet full look.

3. Seamless Appearance

High-quality extensions blend beautifully with your natural lashes. You shouldn’t see thick glue chunks or uneven spacing.

4. Customized for Your Eye Shape

Good lashes are tailored to you—not a one-size-fits-all. At BéLashii, we design lash maps based on your natural lash health, eye shape, and desired style.

5. Healthy Natural Lashes After Removal

When applied correctly, extensions should not damage your natural lashes. After professional removal, your natural lashes should still look and feel healthy.


Signs of Bad Eyelash Extensions ❌

Unfortunately, poor lash applications happen all too often. Watch out for these red flags:

1. Heavy or Painful Lashes

If your extensions feel painful, itchy, or too heavy, it’s a sign they weren’t applied correctly or are too thick for your natural lashes.

2. Multiple Lashes Stuck Together

Clustered or “stickies” (where several natural lashes are glued together) can cause breakage and long-term lash damage.

3. Excessive Glue Use

Seeing big chunks of hardened glue? That’s a sign of poor technique and low-quality products.

4. Unnatural or Blocky Look

Bad lash work often looks stiff, overly shiny, or like a strip lash rather than soft, fluttery extensions.

5. Loss of Natural Lashes

If your natural lashes are breaking or falling out excessively, it’s a major warning sign that your extensions were not done safely.
