Migle Jastrumske

Extremely thorough and detail-​oriented. And she listens to what you want! My lashes look amazing… and I am very picky!
Home salon is very neat and she makes you feel comfortable for the 2 hour appointment.
Will definitely be returning.

As much as it tickles me when people in supermarkets ask if my inch long, drag queen thick lashes are real, I can easily admit that no… no folks, they are not.
I’ve been getting lash extensions for the better part of a year and quite frankly, i’m addicted to them. I started getting them because I’m a monster with make up and come hell or high-​water, water proof or not, when I went into my last meeting of the day without fail, i’d be sporting a nifty set of mascara raccoon eyes. It was super classy. So I got extensions, to keep from looking like a walking zombie in business meetings.
Since then, it’s amazing how addicted to them i’ve become. When I moved here in October, I didn’t have a lash tech and went without the extensions for three months. Yup… it resulted in some pretty spectacular raccoon eyes but there’s other little differences that irked me. For one, I hate getting my picture taken and because the universe is sometimes a jerk, I have a job that requires getting my picture taken… a lot. Eyelash extensions might not seem like a huge huge deal but they add a little boost of confidence in those situations. Let’s be honest — confidence boosting, no matter how little, can be a really big thing.
They also keep me from scaring delivery drivers who knock on my door before 10am. Bed head looks better with extensions. Trust me on this.
So there’s a ton of perks but finding a lash tech whose lashes can go the distance? Tough. I’m a girly girl who is REALLY bad at being a girly girl. I fuss with my lashes, I rub my eyes, I fiddle with them when i’m stressed and I keep going for larger, more animé ridiculous lashes every time I go back. So when it comes to extensions — I need the foolproof kind.
This lady is a wizard. She takes appointments via phone and you get set up in a little room at her house. A full set takes about 1.5 hours and costs £35… coming from Vancouver, where a set of the same can be $ 80 – 100? I’m in. But the true test is how long they last and after two weeks (which were filled with dramatic stress causing, lash fiddling moments), they’re still looking pretty dandy.
I dare say i’ll get them filled every three weeks but regular, more dainty folks could definitely stretch to four or five.
Plus she has two really darn cute dogs. So bonus «awwwww» factor there.
If you’re considering extensions, this is your best bet in the city… and trust me, i’ve done the research. But before you go, know what you’re getting into. If you’re looking for just event lashes, go with a strip lash.
Extensions are amazing and don’t do permanent damage to your lashes (each extension is glued on to individual lashes and fall out as your lashes naturally do) but if you fuss with them, they will mean some stubby lashes when they extensions come off. However, I had my natural lashes for three months and though they started off wee, they grew back to normal length pretty quickly. But if you’re looking to have flutter worthy lashes on a regular basis, they are a great alternative to fussing with strip lashes on a regular basis.
Whether you go here or elsewhere, make sure the people doing the lashes know their stuff, because let’s be honest, it’s your peepers! But really… why look around? I did the research for you. Migle is awesome, so keep it simple and go treat yourself!
