Lashed by Cristina

I’ve had my lashes done by Cristina twice now. Once in 2013 and then again 2 days ago. I’ve been to a few other places to get my lashes done but Cristina is by far the best one so that’s why I decided to come back.
Since I got them done I haven’t had any lashes fall out yet. Even tho it’s normal for a few to fall off in the first few days, it hasn’t happened to me which I’m absolutely thankful for ! I also don’t have the need to apply mascara on them like I did with previous ones. So I’ll definitely be coming back for refills.

I’ve been going to Cristina for lash extensions since 2013 while she was still over at Lash Beautique, and I absolutely adore her!
Here’s the quick gist on house I found her: Lash extensions were something that I wanted to do for a really long time. One of my former co-​workers got hers done, and it gave me the extra push to give it a try. She mentioned that she purchased hers through Groupon. I ended up following through to do my own search of where to go, and that’s how I ended up finding Cristina.
I had a major budget to work with and chose Lash Beautique from Groupon out of all discount service websites to make sure I get the most out of what I’m paying for — ALWAYS do your research and read the fine print when it comes to big decision things to make sure you’re comfortable. It makes make a difference in how you feel with the final outcome.
For me, my lashes stick straight even when I curl them and use mascara. It takes me probably an extra 10 – 15 minutes getting ready with mascara and what not because of how I like my lashes look. I am pretty simplistic with my daily routine and sometimes like just using mascara and leaving for the day.
Cristina is the one who I chose initially and still go to her even though she’s over at a new location now. Mine are pretty natural looking. Most of the time people can’t tell whether I have lash extensions on or not, and I don’t really care if people know because I totally vouch for having them or for anybody to give it a try.
If you’ve never gone, always ask questions to help calm any nerves you might have. The process itself is pretty simple.
You lay down with your eyes closed, and your bottom lashes will be taped to prevent glue from getting on them. It isn’t uncomfortable at all. You get to chat and hang out for about an hour and a half while the lashes are being applied to your own.
Fills are a lot shorter and quicker. Mine tend to be around the 4-​week mark. I’m pretty good with how I treat mine and follow all of the instructions that were given to me because I like making the most out of the money I spent.
There will be instances where some fills go through phases and one eye will have fallen out compared to the other side, but Cristina is more than understanding that things just happen!
Each visit is great, and we chat about pretty much everything and catching up with each appointment! The process is completely painless and would recommend it to anybody who has been thinking about it.
The smell of the glue doesn’t bother me at all. However, I would not recommend lash extensions to you if you have really sensitive eyes or can’t handle laying still with your eyes closed for long periods of time.
Be mindful of which set you purchase to what look you want to get. The level of how dramatic the effect is does correspond with the number of lashes in each set. I did not want mine to be obvious that I have fake lashes and did the research to figure out which would be best for me. The difference with my natural lashes and the extensions were big enough for me. It looks like I have mascara on and appears completely natural.
I do use contact lenses, glasses, and sunglasses and am able to go about my day without even noticing the lashes. It’s worth it to try even if it’s at least once.
She also has a little yorkie that’s the best little assistant, so I call my appointments Enzo Play Dates. I only vouch for people and things I believe in, and I’ve been super happy with my experience with Cristina!

Christina is the best. So sweet. My lashes always look amazing when I leave. She makes me feel whole again. Lmao. Definitely my lash girl for life

Love love love Cristina’s lashes. She’s so sweet and professional and she does an amazing job! I highly recommend Lashed by Cristina!

I found Cristina several months ago via Groupon and have utilized her services therefore. She is personal as well as professional. My lashes are always exactly how I want them at a very moderate price. I would highly recommend Christina for all your lash needs. I would be lost without her.

Being disabled, I thought that I would treat myself to something nice for a change and purchased a Living Social coupon for Lashed by Cristina. I left early for my appmt and drove downtown to the address on the voucher. Not only did I have a hard time finding it, but I had a very difficult time parking. No Parking anywhere ! I finally found a place that charged me $ 10 and had to walk pretty far. As I was walking there, I receive a text notice saying, «DO NOT REPLY, YOU ARE CONSIDERED A NO SHOW.» The same message was sent to my email address. I was 15 mins late ! Upon contacting the salon, I was told that the salon AUTOMATICALLY CANCELS YOUR APPOINTMENT IF YOU ARE 15 MINS LATE, NO FLEXIBILITY AT ALL, they refused to work with me. Cristina told me that she is booked back to back which I believe; however what did she do with the 1 hour and 45 mins that I wasn’t there? They didn’t even offer me any other option. They could have at least offered to just do 20 lashes instead of 30 due to the time paramenter. NOPE, SALON POLICY. REALLY??? Now, I’m out $$$$ after all of that hassle plus I paid $ 10 for parking. I DON’T RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.

Cristina did my lashes when I went on vacation and I loved them! I didn’t have to bother with mascara and I was able to swim and lounge and enjoy my time without worrying about runny makeup. I asked for something natural but noticeable And she did a great job choosing lashes for my eye shape. I would suggest booking in advance and parking is super convenient. Park At Horton plaza and get your ticket validated for 3 hours of free parking. Oh and her place is located inside Salon De Marcus across the street from Ralfs grocery store! Check her out! Can’t wait for my touch up appointment!

Been going to Cristina for the last three years. I had followed her for at least three locations. Loyal customer here! Cristina’s work is on point. I gave a lot of people asked if those lashes are mines. A lot of compliments and my boyfriend loves them. Go to Cristina. You won’t be disappointed!

I love Cristina! Lashes are always On Point! Her professionalism and Many years of experience is 10 stars! Please do yourself a Favor and see this Lash diva for a beautifull Set of Eyelash Extensions!

Christina is so amazing at Lashes, so watch out ladies!!! you will become addicted to her lashes!!!

She is amazing
Great customer service and the atmosphere is very relaxing
Only negative is that finding parking can be troublesome but that’s typical for Downtown

This is my third time getting my lashes done by Cristina and I am always happy when I leave. She’s great! I have thin short lashes and she always takes her time to make sure my lashes are looking as good as can be. She’s not a lash counter. She also has a great personality and easy to work with.

I have been visiting Cristina for well over a year now. She does a great job and I love my lashes. I can’t live with out them!!! I was told once that I would become addicted and now, I truly believe that! Its a must have. I would go with out eating just to be able to get my lashes done! She always fits me in and deals with emergencies so well! Its affordable and totally worth it!

Cristina was so patient with me when I asked 100 neurotic questions as I’d never had lash extensions before. I’ve now had a full set and a fill and I couldn’t be happier with the result and Cristina’s professionalism.

It’s always a five star experience with Christina… the lashes are natural, full, and easy to be on the go!

Found Christina through a Groupon for a full set of diva lashes for $ 30. I had always wanted to try lash extensions but to pay upwards of $ 100-​$ 200 seems insane! Christina offers such a great deal I couldn’t resist, I was worried I’d get what I paid for but she far exceeded my expectations. I’ve gotten so many compliments since getting my extensions and it has cut my morning routine in half! Not sure how that can be but it’s true. I’m hooked!
