I got my first set of eyelash extensions eight years ago. What seemed like an innocent adventure in beauty resulted in an obsessive relationship I haven't been able to shake. My whispery lashes -- until then, more functional than decorative -- transformed from brownish-blond and barely there to curled, dark, lush and arresting. They made my blue eyes appear wider, more defined and a trillion times more feminine. I was Bette Davis eyes, all day, every day. I was hooked.

There is a lot to know about eyelash extensions before you get them, like the cost (not insignificant) and time investment (same), not to mention how long eyelash extensions last (not nearly as long as you want them to, i.e., forever).

Read on for everything you need to know about getting eyelash extensions -- and my experience getting the best lash extensions from Flutter & Wink Beauty Boutique. Trust me -- the transformation is incredible.
