Chicago Lashes

Faithful and happy customer! Love my lashes! Camille as always does a fantastic job!
The only other thing I could ask for is for them to open a location in Oak Brook, Naperville Area (I’m being selfish), or Aurora. Regardless where they are at, I am there.
Camille is MY lash stylist but her Aunt Bambi is awesome and so is Jennifer San Juan!
The place is friendly and they really do make sure you are happy! it is so worth my drive and $.
Everyone thinks they are my lashes.
People stare and Say you have such beautiful, long lashes, depending on my mood I’ll either respond and say thank you (with a little flutter, of course) or thank you but they are not mine, I go to Chicago Lashes.

They did a great job following up with me. Chamille did an excellent job with my lashes. I couldn’t have asked her for more. Chicago lashes did a great job calling me back and getting my lashes fixed immediately. They won’t lose this customer!

I never thought my hair could look this good! Everyone there is great, but I think Daria might be a miracle worker. She matched my hair perfectly, placed my extensions expertly so I don’t have to worry about the bonds showing. I couldn’t be happier!
I can’t imagine not having extensions in from now on!

Hands down, the best place for eyelash extensions in the city. They have the best price and the greatest value. They even have a punch card so you get every 5^th fill for free. The inside is a little gaudy and it’s in a strange area, but don’t let that deter you! They just opened up their second store in Skokie, so they’re doing something right!

Update! Chicago Lashes offered me to come in and have my lashes fixed for free. What a difference a different technician makes! I went to Moon and she did a fabulous job! She explained the different types of lashes, different lengths and explained the styles to me before we started. It took the full two hours and she was very adamant about adding extensions to each lash to make them look as full as possible.
My lashes are now very full and in the cat eye style! Next time I think I will get them a little longer in the middle to get a mix between the cat eye and rainbow styles. I like my eyes to still look full but to still have the wispy lashes on the ends.
Will be coming back to get them refilled in a few weeks! Thank you to Chicago Lashes for keeping your customers happy :)

I just moved from California and I was nervous about getting a lash fill in a new city. Honestly, I’m so impressed with this place! My lashes look way better than my stylist in CA ever did them. They are a little shorter than I was expecting, but look so natural and they feel more natural on my eyes. I will definitely be going back.

I’m not one to leave a review unless I had a great experience. Clicking around online I Found Chicago Lashes’ website. Their site was so beautiful and inviting I just had to call and ask them my questions about eyelash extensions because I’ve never had them done before. They were so helpful and patient answering all my questions (I had several). I feel much more comfortable and excited about getting eyelash extensions now. Thanks for your all your help Chicago Lashes!

I took a close friend of mine here to get her eye lash extensions for a musical. I read about this place online and was impressed. We were both pleasantly surprised at how great of a job they did! Wonderful place, particularly for actors who need special work for shows.

This is my 2^nd review for Chicago Lashes. I didn’t make an appointment and was desperate to get some lashes put on for the weekend so I went to another lash salon to have it done. It was awful, I found myself pulling out when I got home. It was clumpy and cheap looking. I went back to Chicago Lashes to see Jenny and she gave me my full and natural looking lashes back! I also get my hair extensions and recently started to take my daughter for hair extensions at CL. She loves it! It really does look full and natural and stays on for many months. Thank you Jenny for my great looking lashes and for our fabulous hair!

AMAZING!!! I have been going to Chicago Lashes since March and could not be happier i found them. The girls there are very knowledgable and take their time to help me decide what look I want before we get started. Ive gotten new sets every time because i wanted to experiment with different looks, and every single time has been better than the next. This was very important to me since i switch up my make-​up routine quite often. Ive had everything from natural to full on dramatic and they never disappoint. I always leave thrilled with the end result. If you are looking for a place to get lashes this is it.

They have a great new customer special, which I used to get my first set of eyelash extensions. That’s all I would recommend. Get a first set with them and move on to a more quality place. Their fills are expensive and the glue has strong fumes that burn your eyes. The woman I am a regular with now had some critical things to say about the quality of their extensions and how it damaged my eyelashes. In sum, take advantage of their deal and move on.

I decided to wait a couple of days before posting another review and WOW! What a difference.
Moon started off looking at my face shape and asking me questions about how I wear my makeup. Then she got me comfortable and set to work. An hour and a half later she was done and this time they looked even better. But not to moon, so she had me lay back down to tweak her work.
She then explained how to take care of them and gave me some tips.
I’ve only lost a few lashes and I’ve knocked a large chunk of time off my makeup routine… which my boyfriend loves.
I’ll definitely be back. How a company handles their customers says a lot. Chicago lashes have earned their stars plus a few extra in my book

So this is my 2^nd review for Chicago lash eyelash extension. I know the first one will not count once i update my review but just Want to let you all know to make sure you choose your tech wisely! ! I am not taking back my first review because it was really a horrible experience for me.
last night I came back to their place so that they can remove and re attach the lashes that’s stuck in my waterline eyelids. As mentioned, the first application done by Raquel stung my eye and were all clumped up and poked my waterline in my lids. i was very hesitant to come back by they insisted to fix it.
This time they gave me Julie. I was really hoping its going to be pain free And IT WAS!!! Julie took care of me and she removed the eyelash that was clumped up and hurting my eye. And when she re applied the lashes, it didn’t burn my eyes at all! I was not in pain and it was a smooth application just like how it was before when I had my lashes done. She did a wonderful job, took her time and made sure it looked good. We had a good conversation so I didn’t even notice the time anymore. I was 15 minutes late because of the traffic and the rain but she still waited for me and took me in and made sure that I can still have a good experience in this place. Of course the important part is how my lashes would look like right? It was fantastic! I liked it a lot! I can say now that I can go back to this place and will make sure Julie will apply my lash extensions again! Thanks Julie!

I have to be honest, I had never done eyelash extensions until right before the day I got married. I wanted longer and fuller lashes for my special day, so I checked this place out. Crystal took care of me at Chicago Lashes, and I felt really comfortable while she worked on me. The results were AMAZING!
Many girls I hear from just dread having extensions, but somehow my experience at this place was phenomenal. I was camera ready, for sure! Use them on your special day or just on a regular day. Looking gorgeous doesn’t have to involve tons of money or be painful :)

Don’t go there! It took me 3 refills to figure out that their work is mediocre at best. If it is the only place you went to, try somewhere else.
Every time I went the girls used excessive glue. The extensions were struck together in a bulk, sometimes over multiple natural lashes, which damaged them. Not to mention the fact that they were so rigid at the base that my lids would hurt when I blinked!
But the last session was way to much! The protection covering my bottom lashes moved, so I had the glue sticking the upper lashed to the bottom ones. So, instead of using a glue-​remover, Raquel had the brilliant idea of cutting the lashes that had gotten stuck!!! No ladies, no matter what they tell you, they do not grow back! At least not very fast. I have been staring at my bold spot for months now!
Then I tried somewhere else and I realized the difference! With Nancy, you cannot see the glue at all! Even if I stare really really close in the mirror. And when the extensions start falling, my natural lashes do not fall with them as with Chicago Lashes work.
If you are planning to go, think again!!!

Areta is INCREDIBLE for hair extensions. She does such an amazing job and makes sure your happy with it. She is so sweet and you can really tell she loves what she does.
I also get my lashes done and Moon is the girl to see. She takes her time and makes sure your lashes look incredible. I am constantly getting complaints for both my hair and lashes. So happy I found Chicago lashes!

Every women’s dream is to have full, thick, beautiful lashes. Well, I don’t know about you. But buying the cheap little eyelash strips from wall-​mart are always a pain in the butt to get on and off! So, I decided to do some research about professional eyelash extensions.
The one eyelash salon that kept appearing everywhere was the one and only Chicago Lashes. Thanks to the wonderful Unilocal reviews here, and recommendations amongst those who know a thing or two about eyelashes, I decided to try this place: and the end results are PHENOMENAL.
I called this salon to book an appointment on Tuesday and was very fortunate to be able to get an appointment two days later at 9:00AM (Which is great because this salon is always very busy!)
The receptionist, James (Who I believe is also the store manager as well) Greeted me with enthusiasm and cheerfulness the moment I walked into the door. He told me to have a seat, and that Moon (the lash technician) would be with me momentarily. He offered me tea, water, and even coffee too while waiting. I got a chance to look around– and this place was not only very clean, but very well decorated! The cute chairs at the front of the shop were super comfy as well.
Moon greeted me with a warm smile, and inquired if I had lashes before. I informed her this would be my first time, and she grabbed a book (that contained pictures of various lashes) and we sat down for several minutes discussing the options at hand. She didn’t rush me at all, and was very comforting to converse with. We decided for a semi natural look– which would add just the amount of ‘glam’ I wanted, while keeping it natural looking as well.
I laid down and Moon began her work, explaining every little detail– every process of the way. Eventually, I fell asleep, and the next thing I knew, my lashes were complete! I believe it took about a full 2 hours– which is great!
Moon handed me the mirror and I FELL IN LOVE WITH MY LASHES! They were perfect! The experience at Chicago Lashes was absolutely wonderful! Park was a breeze (a whole bunch of spots right outside the salon). I will definitely be back as a continuing customer and I highly recommend this salon!

When making an appointment with Chicago Lashes, they take your credit card information in case you have to cancel the appointment in which case you will be charged a $ 50 cancellation fee. Considering a full set is $ 95, thats a rather high fee in my opinion. So be sure you can 100% commit to the appointment.
The receptionist is nice and polite. Make sure if you’re using the Unilocal special you get charged the right amount, because even after mentioning it I got charged the full amount. The money was not refunded but rather a $ 10 «credit» was applied to my account. (meaning i have to be a return customer, not a fan)…
The technician, Kara, was very nice and applied the lashes properly and with precision. She does her job well, in what she was trained to do. But if you want a custom look this may not be the place for you. I normally get a custom look at another place and when I showed pictures and explained how, I still received the full lash they normally give. Not preferred but okay, I can deal with it.
I have had the lashes in for about a week and only a few have fallen out, which only supports my statement above that Kara did her job well! She explained how to take care of them and provided a little goodie bag that also included instructions.

The first time I went was the beginning of the month. I had gotten eyelash flairs from a place in the burbs and it was awful! So I had gone to Chicago Lashes to get those bad boys taken off and to get a whole new set. I used a Living Social deal for $ 89 for a full set. The place gets super busy, but I got really lucky and was able to get an appt right away the next day. I had my appointment with Michelle. She is GREAT! She spent at least an hour on my lashes! I was so comfortable, I’m pretty sure I fell asleep for a little bit. By the time she was done, my lashes looked AMAZING!!! She did exactly what I wanted — natural, full, cat-​eye lash extensions! I was sooooooo happy!!! It was perfect!!!
The second time I went was a couple days ago. This time I took my sister to get hers done. She had an appt for the same deal with Bambi. Again, AMAZING job!!! My sister had natural beautiful eyelashes at the end!!! Loved it!!!
So needless to say, both my experiences here have been absolutely awesome!!! I’m definitely gonna come back here anytime I need my lashes done!!! Such a cute girly fun place with awesome staff in a pretty convenient location if you live in the city.

I’m writing my second review on Unilocal for this salon because they deserve it. The location is convenient even for me who comes from the northwest suburbs, it’s a straight shot down Addison Ave after I get off I-​90 and for the most part, traffic and parking isn’t terrible when you book appointments at non-​rush hour times or when there’s a Cubs game.
The scheduling system is really easy as I have been using their online booking system via Vagaro on my iPhone. I can select the tech I want, and find available appointment slots for any particular day. And for the most part, appointments run on time. The few times my appointments have run late have been either my own fault for running late (but often been caught up with the girls’ efficiency) or the precious customer has run them late. It happens but really not often at all.
The lashes, glue and work are excellent. I have gone to two different lash places before in the beginning, spent more money and was not half as satisfied. My lashes typically last 3 – 4 weeks before needing a refill and that’s with me working out (and sweating) 4 – 5 times a week, and have gone swimming during the summer. Obviously, you do have to take good care of your lashes at home and not pick at them throughout each day. The one time my lashes did not even last a week, I notified them and they offered to fix them for free which I thought was very good customer service as they were prompt about addressing my dissatisfaction.
Customer service is really good here.
