40 Lashes

Nancy rocks! My lashes (and I never say this but this is how good she is) are always on point since I’ve started seeing her for extensions. I can regularly go around sans make up and still feel like a total rock star! Have not had ANY problems with these beauties staying on. In fact I’ve only been able to go once a month for touch ups and I constantly get compliments on them from freshly touched up to needing a little TLC. Wasn’t sure exactly what size/​length I wanted to get when I first started but she got me set up with ones that look like I just have amazing mascara on and totally natural. Girl knows her stuff. Thanks Nancy!

Repeat customer. Adore Tracy and Cindy. Tracy does an amazing job with my lashes. First came to her when my previous lash application failed from a previous person at a nail salon. She had patience and removed all the bad lashes and gave me a fresh set. Tracy is a professional making sure your lashes look exactly how you want them. Excellent pricing. Both Tracy and Cindy have professional, fun, loving personalities which makes it easy to go back. Highly recommend.

The best lash girl in the history of life, Clarissa! I just moved and went to her for 2 ½ years! I miss her and Cindy so much! They are both amazing and your lashes will never look better! Love you guys!!!

This review is long overdue. I have been going to Clarissa for many years now and she is great with lashes! Cindy and Joanna are awesome with bookings as well. Highly recommended.

Love Cindy and Clarissa, they have great customer sevice and are on top of it. Friendly and compare to other places Ive been too, their materials are of quality. I plan to continue going for a very long time.

Clarissa is GREAT!!! She is meticulous and gentle. I found this place thanks to Unilocal and them having an opening when I needed it. I’ve had extensions for a long time and been to a few different places. I took a break for almost a year and just couldn’t live without them any longer. I don’t feel like I need to wear any make up when I have these. I love them! One thing I’ve learned is that 1) extensions are not for everyone — they’re a responsibility with great reward :-), 2) and eyelashes do fall out in different cycles and you have to take care of them (be gentle with your lashes and care for them properly — don’t rub, don’t use the wrong cleansers, follow the care guidelines), 3) no pain no gain. They might bug you. You need to determine… is the issue the lashes and who did them or are they just not for me? Find an experienced eyelash gal and talk (not blame) one you can trust. I’m really happy to have found this place close to my house with quality work. Again, Clarissa is great — if you’ve been wanting to try these they are affordable and good.

I got my lashes filled on a whim since my gal is way in South County. Clarissa did a good job and gave me the cat eye look I had asked for. I personally had experience doing lashes and recently was certified so I was picky about who I went to to get my own lashes filled. I’m pleased that I found a solid spot and they were so kind to squeeze me in. Cindy the owner is a bad@$$ chick and the conversation in there and vibe overall is really fun. As somebody who has never had many lashes, this is my personal indulgence. I feel like a total babe!

I get my lashes here every 3 weeks, I love them and so does everyone else. Clarissa is my girl. I think it’s pricey to fill them at 55 dollars every 3 weeks so I wish they would lower it so I can get them filled every two weeks.

One of the best experiences in customer service and in professionalism. I was a bit skeptical about lashes from hearing a bunch of story’s from other friends. I decided to give it a try and it was money well spend. Paula had and amazing technique that made my extensions look real. I got many complements from friends about my eyes and that I looked with a glow. …lol …
I was able to roll out of bed with no makeup and still look put together. The lashes did give me an instant lift with no surgery.
Lady’s do your self a favor and go with «paula» she has an amazing hand for this art and great customer service.

This is the worst place ever ! Initially it was great I went here a few times — until they fired everybody & hired two new girls that are both terrible! I went in for a eyelash removal & full set. My appt was at 3 o’clock — at 8pm the owner was annoy that her worker was taking so long & she still wasn’t done asked me to come back another day! I was pissed because the days she offered were ³⁄₄ days later ! I asked the owner I’m suppose to walk around with my eyelashes half done! She was very inconsiderate — I walked out. & never went back. My eyelashes were too short we agreed on 15 I left with 10 & 12 ! Horrible service & the owner is unprofessional I heard her whisper her worker if I could come back anther time because it was taking too long. Ewww & the owner smokes

Thank you, Cindy and Jen! I have zero complaints. I had no idea what I was missing by skimping on quality and service just to save a few bucks. I am more than pleased with my new set of lashes and the much needed education on how lashes should be applied without damaging my natural lashes.
A nice touch is the soft music playing in the background. It’s a very relaxing experience and everyone makes you feel at home.

My lashes started falling out by the handful. I loved them initially, but I really should have been encouraged to go two, not three weeks between fills.
I have opted to go elsewhere for fills. The costs listed online here are NOT what the actual costs for fills are at 40 Lashes. I had read here the fills were $ 25. When I made my appointment, the fill cost was $ 55. I can’t justify $ 55 every two weeks for eyelashes. I found fills for $ 35 every two weeks by a professional who is every bit as good, a bit more personable, and with using the glue that had been recommended to me initially as the best to prevent breakage and lash fall out.

This place is true to its word. Not lying to its hard, black core. The system works! I have experienced it.
1) The eyelashes are awesome.
FAQ’s: (Confirmed in the website, info not owned)
1) Do lash extensions damage the lashes?
A: With proper application and care, your natural lashes will not be damaged by extensions.
2) Is the glue safe to use in the eye area?
A:40 Lashes uses only specially formulated, surgical-​grade glue that has been approved for use around the eye. The glue is formaldehyde-​free and very gentle.
3) What are eyelash extensions?
A: Eyelash extensions are a semi-​permanent solution for women who have thin and/​or short eyelashes or for anyone desiring a more dramatic effect with their eyes. Unlike old-​fashioned strip lashes, extensions are very natural looking and can be worn for weeks with minimal care. Individual synthetic lashes are applied to a single natural eyelash using a surgical-​grade adhesive manufactured specifically for this application. The practice has existed for decades in Asia, particularly Korea, where the practice originated. Today, it is rapidly gaining popularity among American women seeking to enhance the impact of their eyes while eliminating the hassles of mascara.
4) Can I wear mascara?
A: Most women who wear eyelash extensions find they no longer need to wear mascara. However, for a thicker, more dramatic look, 40 Lashes does offer mascara that is specifically formulated for extensions. Please bear in mind, oil-​based makeup remover will also remove eyelash extensions. For the best possible results, please minimize rubbing of your extensions and use only water or non oil-​based remover.
5) How long does the applicator take?
A: Your first visit for a full set of lashes will typically take one-​and-​a-​half hours or more, depending on how many natural lashes you have. Relashes will take between 30 and 45 minutes.
6) Cancellation?
A: 40 Lashes requires 24 hours notice of a cancellation or rescheduled appointment. This allows us to accommodate others if you cannot make your appointment. Cancellations or rescheduled appointments made within 24 hours of a scheduled appointment will be charged the full price.

40 Lashes is a wonderful place to have eyelash extensions. My experience with Rachel was amazing and she made my eyes look so great! My lashes were full and lush and I look forward to coming back for more in the future!
Rachel was especially kind and helpful in showing me how to care for my new lashes since this was the first time I got them.
Looking forward to seeing her again!

I’ve always wanted long beautiful lashes but other than MAC fake lashes I’d never given much thought to extensions. That said I trusted my lashes to Rachel and let me tell you she does an AMAZING job. I’ve been to several salons for haircuts, eyebrow wax, etc and I always receive oohs and ahhhs on how great /​natural they look. I was at Bloomies earlier today and the girl at Laura Mercier counter commented on how great my lashes look with mascara. She was stunned to find out they were extensions, she even asked me to close my eyes to try and see where my lashes ended and extensions began and she couldn’t tell. I love love love the way Rachel takes her time and makes my lashes look super fab!
I highly recommend her if your looking for natural looking lashes.
Thanks Rachel see ya soon!

Update: The owner never refunded me the amount she said she would. I called her several times to inform her of this and she never responded to my calls. Is this how they do business?! There should be some sort of safety protocols to be followed before doing extensions… first off! Wash your hands !! Rachel used hand sanitizers … Sterilize your tools! and Do somekind of allergy test. Your dealing with my eyes damnit! Oh and Cindy said it was normal to get red eyes, so expect this when you go to this salon.

I’m addicted to lashes. I love 40 lashes, Jessica, and Cindy. When I leave the shop I feel confident and know I look much better than when I walked in the shop.
I couldn’t recommend more highly.

I am happy to give this salon 500 stars if i could.
I will say that my lashes look great! I drive specifically here from North Hollywood to get my lashes done and I will not go anywhere else.
Great staff always polite! great prices. worth the time– worth the commitment– worth the money!!!
Go to this salon for your eyelash needs!

On a whim, on an unexpected day off during a business trip, I decided to get eyelash extensions. Impulsive? Yes! I did a little scouting online, and 40 Lashes had a good reputation, seemed reasonably priced, and had an open appointment.
Well, my experience was beyond fantastic, and today it got even better! After 3+ weeks with beautiful, full, mascara-​free lashes I thought I should get a «fill» here in the SF Bay Area, before I left on my next biz trip. I made an appointment at a high-​end local salon that advertised eyelash extensions. They took one look at my lashes and declined to do my «fill», saying that they didn’t think I would be happy with the result. They brought every esthetician in the salon out to the lobby to «ooooh» and «aahhhh» over my amazingly full and mostly still intact original extensions. They all agreed that they must have been put on using an advanced technique that they didn’t know… layering 2 or 3 individual extensions on each of my own lashes. I left, pleased and disappointed at the same time…
So… I called 40 Lashes (to see if they could offer me any advice), left a message, and the owner Cindy called me back within minutes. Despite the fact that I will likely never be in Fullerton again for any her services (which she knew), she spent nearly 20 minutes with me on the phone, helping me understand the gorgeous eyelashes that I’d gotten there, how they were applied to look this good, and how to find someone locally that could do the same. She was amazingly helpful, patient, and totally professional. My eyelashes were actually applied by Jennifer, who is really wonderful, and apparently CRAZY talented! Cindy explained that they do NOT in fact put more than one extension on per eyelash, but the skill is in carefully separating the eyelashes, even the tiny ones, and extending them all.
I’ve received many, many compliments… not on my eyelash extensions, but rather on my eyes and make up (which I really don’t have on!). «Wow! You look amazing! What’s different?» They look so natural that no one quite knows what I’ve done. Even my boyfriend said that I looked gorgeous when he picked me up at the airport… but it wasn’t until morning when he WOKE me up to say «It’s your eyelashes! They’re stunning! Did you do something different?» When I told him they were extensions he said «Well, I hope you keep doing it… I’m totally digging the way they look… very sexy». Too bad he lives in Portland, because I’m gonna have to move to Fullerton! HA!

40 lashes is not just any salon — it focuses on only eyelashes.
The owner and her staff are very friendly and always make you feel welcomed. I’ve been going there for almost 2 years now. Sure I could go somewhere closer, but for the quality you get — it’s definitely worth the drive! The prices are very reasonable and they do an amazing job. They always take the time to answer any questions you have and give really helpful tips on how to maintain your eyelash extensions.
If you’ve ever considered getting eyelash extensions, look no further! 40 Lashes is your answer!
