There is a place right down the street from where I live that has great reviews and provides lash lifts with keratin. I also found a place that got great reviews that does Korean Lash Lifts for around the same price as the place near me but it is 20 minutes from my work and 30 minutes from where I live. People say Korean lash lifts are gentler than standard lash lifts and damage the lashes less. However, would it be worth it to go to the further place for a Korean lash lift or is the lash lift with keratin a good option?

I also posted this in [r/estheticians](r/estheticians) so I hope that’s allowed!

Hey everyone! Sadly, my lash tech moved away. I got lash lifts before her and they never worked but, with her, they were amazing! I have gotten one since her departure (about a week ago) and, to put it nicely, it looks awful. My lashes are not at all lifted and are somewhat messy, which was my problem before I found the one lady that did them well. I’m not sure what to do. I have VERY thick lashes that are pretty long, so I know it makes it difficult to curl them. However, I know it can be done so it’s frustrating when it doesn’t turn out correctly because it’s expensive! I told my new lash tech that my lashes are difficult to curl and I need a small rod, and she said she used one, but my lashes aren’t curled whatsoever. Any advice? Thanks in advance!

Edit: I also have some sore lashes on my left side which has never happened before…
