Ladies AND Gentlemen, you are in for a fabulous experience. I didn't know lashes went beyond mascara, the over the counters you can glue on, or the intensive salon version with hot glue. This is something totally else--using your very own lashes. I am neither browley nor lashley blessed, (we'll talk about how Brooke Shields stole my brows and Prince took my lashes later) but now my natural ones look like the best mascara job I've ever had. Perfectly spaced, dark, and curved, they have never been so lovely!
The studio is easily accessible from Bryant Park, Grand Central, or Herald Square. The door from the nondescript hallway opens to a welcoming space, like visiting a cool school friend or what you think a posh 5th Ave apartment looks like. For those of you not particularly fond of warm pastels and flowers, don't worry. It's girly enough to make you feel welcome and special because you're there to be pampered, but tasteful, professional, and thoughtful so you know you're in the right place.
Manager Helen will greet you warmly. The session is long, so use the facilities first. It's a little chilly, so do wear a sweater. I encourage a "before" picture. Plop into a comphy chair that tilts back to a zero-gravityish position. You will smell a beautiful rose water Technician Suzette uses to clean your eyes. She has good hands, wiping you gently and firmly just as your mother would. I haven't been steady enough for my own mascara lately, but all the things going on your eyes and through your lashes are done with steady, easy feeling. Most of the product smells fine, a few a little acrid but nothing more than you'd typically experience at any salon. The soothing music and space will render you well relaxed.
When you get done, you will feel like an improved person. Keep them dry for 24hrs, then give them a wee bit of castor or coconut oil to keep them nourished. See if the first few people you run into don't regard you more positively. If my scanty lashes came out looking this good, ooh, someone with full ones anyway will...

I've been going to Dazzling Lash Bar since March and I absolutely LOVE THEM! Where do I start? Well of course with lovely Helen greeting you as you walk in! ⤠The experience is amazing, and I say "experience" because it is just so relaxing, everytime! Before I started getting my lashes done I read reviews about people falling asleep while they are getting them done and I was like "what? How could you fall asleep while someone is working that close to your eyes?" Let me tell you... I fall asleep almost everytime, even today and I'm pretty sure I snored- Sorry Michelle! š“ They are so gentle you don't even feel them working and that's not to mention how comfortable they are afterward. I honestly forget I have them done until I look in the mirror and I'm like " oh! Hey you!" Lol.
I recommend them every...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreSo I really wanted to love this place because the studio is beautiful, chairs are comfy and staff are so amazingly, incredibly nice (thatās why three stars instead of just one) but Iām giving it a low score because I spent $150 ($180 including tip) on a lash lift and tint and it looked like nothing had been done to my lashes. The person before me got lash extensions and was super happy with that so maybe thatās their specialty but my lashes donāt look that different after the treatment. It was my first lash lift so maybe they went lighter with it than they should have. Iāve see others with lash lifts and pics and itās usually like drastically different and while I can see some lift, itās not nearly enough to justify the expense. I should have taken a before picture for comparison but you can see what it looks like after treatment in...
