Where to Find: Lengthy, voluminous lashes can be spotted on beauties of all ages. From the artsy students in the South Loop to the fashionistas dodging in and out of the 900 N. Michigan building, dramatic lashes are making an appearance on eyes of all colors and shapes.

Trend Alert: Females everywhere go to extreme measures to have, and show off, gorgeous lashes. Whether it’s wiggling on 10 coats of DiorShow or applying Latisse nightly, this daily regime can seem more like an exercise routine than a make-up routine. However, with semi-permanent eyelash extensions, everyone can have effortlessly lust-worthy lashes.

Get the Look: At The Lashe Spot – which has three locations throughout Chicagoland – ladies can relax while a top technician applies the semi-permanent eyelashes. All lashes are made of synthetic hairs, are applied individually, and are bonded to the existing lashes.

Because not all eyes are alike, eyelash applications are unique to you. Choose between four different styles – Feather (the softest look), Natural (adding thickness to 75 percent of lashes), Mascara (a full set of long, dark lashes), or Glamour (where you can add a fun burst of color) – for a sexy, beautiful look that is all your own.

The application process takes about 90 to 120 minutes, and your eyes remain closed the entire time. Although this may seem like quite the time commitment, the process is well worth it.  You can now press the snooze button on your alarm clock in the morning, because when you leave The Lashe Spot, you will have dark, perfectly curled lashes that do not require the laborious process of mascara. If you choose, however, you can still apply your devoted mascara to the tips only. Prices start at $125 and can go to about $400.
