R’s Eyelash Design

Everyone is pretty decent, EXCEPT KOTO. DO NOT GO TO KOTO unless you want your lashes painfully pulled out. Four stars otherwise.

Best quality eyelash extensions I have ever had! I got the more dramatic, longer set rather than my regular natural here. They call it the «cat eye sexy» rather than a length of cm. It turned out perfectly and lasted more than a couple weeks, which says a lot because I’m terrible about pulling them out!
Lovely serene environment. Miho is absolutely wonderful. She is gentle, meticulous, and followed up with me to ensure I was happy with the results. Go Miho!

Was referred here by a friend and I absolutely love it it’s clean the staff is friendly & they did an amazing job on my ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ individuals. Have received so many compliments. Also they give you 10% off for new customer! This place definitely knows what they’re doing and all of the girls are well trained with good experience!

I came here as a first timer to lash extensions and had a very positive experience. I wish I remembered my tech’s name, but she was extremely welcoming and professional. She was patient with explaining the different curls, lengths, shapes, thickness, glue types, and answering all of my questions of course.
I wasn’t sure of how many pieces I wanted, so she did the minimum on one eye and took the time to remove the tape to show me what it looked like. She did this more than once as I also wanted to see the difference between different lengths as well. In the end I opted for 70 pieces, C curl, 11−12mm. They came out beautifully done, and I didn’t feel a thing the entire time because she was very gentle and not rushing.
Since then I’ve found an equally wonderful place that is less pricey, but if R’s was a tad less expensive I would definitely be a repeat customer.

I love this place! It is clean, professional and uses top products. The Japanese staff are patient and do excellent work. I love having a set applied before I vacation in warm, wet environments because I hate using mascara. A set lasts me about 4 weeks and I’ve never had an allergic reaction to their glue. I highly recommend this salon.

What sets this place apart from other lash extension places are options. You can select from several design: cute, gorgeous, sexy, etc. I like the «cute» style which is designed to make Asian eyes look rounder. You can also decide how curly the lash extensions are: J-​curl, C-​curl or extra curly. They offer strong or gentle glue. I usually select the strong glue but I protect my eyes with contact lens that I wear while having my extensions done then toss them afterwards.

I had a horrible experience at a shop (not R’s) and came to R’s Eyelash (found on Unilocal) to get them removed. Not only were they sympathetic to my situation, they took their time to carefully remove my eyelashes properly. Instead of immediately putting new lashes on, they stated that since mine were so damaged, I should get their treatment and wait for a few weeks. I was impressed with their care and concern. I did as they said, getting their growth treatment and my eyelashes were restored within a few weeks. I will definitely go back to get my eyelashes done at R’s.

absolutely avoid this place. I’ve had extensions done several times at bb eyelashes in the city (they are great), but suffered a severe allergic reaction to the crazy glue they use at this place. i had to come back the next day to get them removed because the pain was unbearable. They told me no refunds, despite the fact that they told me many people have had to return to get the eyelashes removed due to allergies.
Allergic reaction and ridiculous customer service aside, the quality of the lashes was lacking. Mine were shiny and plasticky — very giraffe-​like. Not a good experience at all.

I went here for my very first eyelash extension application (special occasion). The facility is very clean, with soft music. I actually fell asleep during the application because I honestly couldn’t feel a thing and I was so relaxed under my warm blanket. My lash tech was very informative and advised me on which design to get that will complement my eye shape and give me the look I desired. The application lasted about an hour and a half, no biggie like I said I feel asleep during the process. I got the gorgeous lashes ⁶⁰⁄₆₀ and they lasted a solid 3 weeks before I needed any touch up. I tried sleeping only on my back … didn’t work.

So I never updated my review two weeks after my lashes were done, because I never had to go back for touch ups. The lashes stayed on very well after one month, I’d say I still had 50 on each side. After two months, I still had about half on each eye. I never felt the need to go back for touch ups, and honestly, I wasn’t really following all the steps to maintain the lashes, i.e., my makeup and facial products aren’t oil free, and I can never sleep facing up…
Amazed at how long the lashes lasted despite my lack of effort to maintain, I went again in late Dec for a new set. This time I switched to «gorgeous», which in my opinion looked better because I think they were a little curlier. When I chose that, Mai told me that they wouldn’t last as long as the other look, probably due to how curly they are, and she wasn’t joking. I could tell this time the lashes fell out a little quicker than last set. But even with that, I still didn’t have to go back for touch ups because my lashes still looked pretty amazing after one month. I only began to tell the difference around mid-​Feb that the lashes were really falling off.
For people who are afraid that the gel may stop your natural lashes from growing, I shared the same fear. So I didn’t go back for a new set immediately because I wanted to see what my natural lashes would be like after the extensions were all gone. By end of Feb (keep in mind I got my last set in last Dec, so they still lasted for about two months), all extensions were gone and my natural lashes were very short, to the point I couldn’t use an eyelash curler to curl them or apply mascara. Now about three weeks after that, I think my natural lashes are back at their normal pre-​extension length. So personally, I don’t think the gel would permanently stop your natural lashes from growing, as long as you can stand about three weeks of «growing pain», I think it’s safe to do the extensions.

This is the only eyelash extension place I go to now that I’ve found them. I CONSTANTLY get compliments on my lashes. They look incredibly real and Aya is the BEST. My eyes are a different shape so the customize the level of curl so that the eyelashes even out my eye. I’ve had extensions that were way cheaper but that looked uneven and fell off within a week. You get what you pay for. R’s is pricey but well worth it.

Out of the JJ’s, Jane’s and Eyelash Boutique, this is by far the worst eye lash extensions I’ve gotten. I’m extremely disappointed because I wanted to like this place, as 2 friends have said positive things about R’s. The service up until my displeasure with the extensions was great. Prior to the service the beautician explains the options available and is very helpful and patient. After this I felt fairly confident that this was going to be a decent place.
As I had my lashes being worked on, the glue constantly got into my eyes and thus they were stinging throughout the process, this has never happened to be before at other places. When the entire process was done, I noticed that several of the lashes on my left eye were slanted and 2 were completely crooked. I made my concern known to my beautician and she said «oh it’s just the way you brush your lashes.» I’ve had my lashes done plenty of times before and I knew it wasn’t about the way I brush my lashes. I didn’t want to be a pain and so I just paid and proceeded to put on my make up there. As I continued to do my make up, the lashes that were crooked were really bothering me and becoming more noticeable. I thought to myself since I paid for this service, I could dictate what I like and have what I don’t like fixed. So I went to the front and told the girl at the desk my issue. She went to speak with my beautician and she came back and said «oh she says it’s slanted because of the way your lashes grow.» That’s when I was really floored and irritated. My thoughts were: if it is the way my eye lashes grow, why is it that this is the first time that my lashes have come out like this right after it’s been done? Usually lashes will sometimes go slanted as your lashes grow out in 2 weeks or so, BUT not right when I’ve gotten them done. Secondly if it’s the way my lashes grow, my lashes haven’t grown much since she’s attached the lashes and the 20 minutes it took me to do my make up. This argument was just ridiculous and outlandish. I asked for the 1 lash that was completely side ways to be removed and after much attitude, they complied. In removing that lash, some others lashes were lost and after 2 days of having my lashes done, my left eye lashes look a HOT MESS. There’s a section missing and it just looks wrong. I now need to pay another place to remove these lashes and do new ones that won’t look wrong. UGH.

I went to The Lash Loft for my first experience with eyelash extensions. I wanted to get them done on short notice, and Lash Loft made that easy with their online booking system. The ambiance there was great, but they didn’t offer options for customization, and consequently I walked out with lashes that weren’t as full or curly as I hoped. Furthermore, over half of them fell off in a week. For my removal and second full set (only a week and a half later) I decided to do my research and chose R’s Eyelash Design based on the positive reviews.
The ambiance is a little doctors office-​esque, kind of sterile, but what R’s lacks in frills they make up for in expertise. The customization options are seemingly limitless. You can choose the exact length and thickness of the lashes, a specific curl type, the amount you want, and finally the overall style. It’s actually a little overwhelming, but your technician helps guide your choices based on your eye shape.
I was comfortable throughout the entire removal and application process, and the final result was beautiful, long, curly lashes. They’re the lashes that I always wanted from my mascara but could never achieve… and now I wake up with them every morning! My eyelashes from Lash Loft would get all twisted while I slept, and as they became detached from my lashes they poked my eyes. My lashes from R’s have not done this at all in the week that I’ve had them. I’ve hardly even used the brush they gave me, and there has been no twisting or poking! A handful of them have fallen out, but I’ve noticed that they were attached to my natural lashes, so it was the result of my natural lash cycle, and not the adhesive being too weak.
Overall, I’m officially addicted. I will be going back to R’s and I would definitely recommend it if you want a quality job. My only criticism is that I wish they would add an online reservation system!

R’s eyelash design is the best! I’ve tried a couple other eyelash studios in the city, but there’s no comparison. R’s actually does a meticulous job of ensuring that they are giving you the look that you have in mind. They are very gentle in applying the lashes, and they do not cut your natural lashes like some other studios (bling). My natural lashes are actually healthier after coming here. I swear other studios plopped glue and tore my poor little lashes to shreds. Sooo now I’m hooked on this place! You won’t be disappointed! My peepers are happy and pretty!

I had «gorgeous» lashes applied for my wedding 4 weeks ago yesterday. I have to admit – I was little nervous, never having done this before. It seemed a little extreme, but my make up artist recommended it, and so I went with it.
I felt calmed immediately. The space is bright and impeccably clean. You lay down on a little bed, putting your shoes and purse neatly in the bin, and gentle music plays. The technician who applied my lashes was so obviously skilled at this task (sort of imperative when someone has glue and tweezers that near your eyes) that I could barely even feel the application. In fact, I fell asleep twice during the procedure.
The lashes hold up well over time, especially if you use a blowdryer on cold when you get out of the shower and use the little brush they give you. Try and sleep on your back, not your sides. I’m 4 weeks out and I still have about ¹⁄₃ on my left eye and ½ on my right eye. Gotta be honest, it’s looking a little weird as the lashes that have the extensions grow out to be suuuuuuuuuper long and my new eyelashes grow in as little short babies. I probably should spring for having them removed. I am still getting compliments on them, despite their weirdness, 4 weeks out.
My only tip would be that if you’ve never done this before, do your research and stand your ground, because they will try to upsell you a little if you’ve never been before. I went 3 days before my wedding, which was totally fine. When I called to book over the phone, the woman tried to get me to book two appointments: coming two weeks before, and then a few days before for a refill. Just book the one appointment and know exactly how many lashes you want by reviewing the info on their website. They will obviously try and sell you the max number.
All in all, I got ⁷⁰⁄₇₀ for $ 140. You can probably have them done cheaper elsewhere, but this place is totally professional. If you’re going to have something so lavish done in the first place, you might as well go with the best, right?
Cash tip preferred.

I’m in love! I won’t be going back to mascara anytime soon. It’s just amazing what lashes can do to you! I’m barely wearing make up now.
Everything was pleasant experience. You pick your lash length, thickness, and style you like (Cute, Sexy, Natural, etc), and they will work their magic in an hour to hour and half. They also give you an option to do under eye moisturizing patch for $ 3.
I did ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ lashes for $ 100 and it took about an hour. After you get this done, they recommend not getting water on it for 6 hours or so. They give you a little brush for maintenance, which I’ve been using every time I wash my face.
I have gotten eyelash extensions before from other places, and they poke your eye and gets uncomfortable when your extension gets twisted with other lashes. So far it’s been about a week with R’s eyelash, and it’s not uncomfortable at all! It really feels like your own lashes. And it still looks fab! I’ve been using mild oil-​free soap for cleansing my face.
I have a feeling it’s gonna last a lot longer then I expected. yay!
:)

I’ve been getting eyelash extensions here for a few months. This is a hygienic, professional salon. The staff is courteous and knows what they are doing. A shout-​out to my main girl Chika who does a stellar jerb of beautifying my peepers. I am pretty tough on my lashes (sleep on my stomach & wash my visage frequently and aggressively). My extensions last for weeks and hardly ever fall out.

Long overdue review here folks. So it all started once upon a time when I passed a nail salon advertising eyelash extensions. I went in, got them done and kept it up for about a month or so. Because salons kinda suck for eyelash extensions and are not healthy for your lashes, I started doing my research via Unilocal and found R’s Eyelash Design. Let me tell ya, these ladies are amazing! I am addicted. No really. I have gone 3 times now and will continue to go forever because my eyelashes are fabulous now! I like them long as possible and very dramatic. You would think that I work in a strip club but I don’t. I just like the lashes long ladies!
Go to R’s if you want amazing lashes. Yes, it’s expensive but so worth it. Gotta have your vices!

I am on of the luckiest one.
I was introduced to May (through a friend of mine), a wonderful Japanese young women and soon to be strong professional after she finishes her training. Why am I the luckiest? Because I was a model to practice on, Hey, its totally free of charge so I said yes. I did not expect anything great. It was my first time doing eyelashes ever. My eyelashes thickness or length never was a point of concern to me. I was simply trying to help out a girl (May) to get more practice. If anything did not look good I would worry much, but My God I am different person now!
Even my BF who has meticulous eye for details noticed it was very well done and only said: «I hope they last long»
Look AMAZING, very natural and soft to the touch. Salon use silk. Clean towels covers the bed to lie on. They place baskets right in front of your bed to put your shoes in and purse. Very convenient.
Good job, May! Everything even. I got first time 80 lashes and on my second time she took everything off and added even more (about 100 total) to compensate the fact that I have more lashes on one eye. She took time to explain what she will do and gave me some recommendations. It took me 2 hours but she was very gently so I fall asleep. I tip her twice and she was so cute to reject saying I am a model. i had to insist. I like my look so much that tipping her was the only way to show my appreciation.
I only wish my natural eyelashes won’t grow so fast so I don’t have to retouch often.
[So girls and guys! If you have extra $$ to spend don’t hesitate to go. If a practicing girl was able to do such a great job, rest assured the rest of the professionals won’t fail. I uploaded photos]

I visited this place courtesy of Gilt City and because I’m a curious person and always wondered what fake lashes would look like. My experience at R Lash could not have been better — the staff is composed of Japanese women and everyone from the receptionist to the aestheticians were sweet and attentive.
Before you lie down for treatment, they walk you through the process and various styles available. You then are taken to one of the beds and tucked under a cozy blanket after which they start to glue the false lases on across a 45 – 60 minute period (the time depends on how many you are getting). For $ 45 dollars, I got 45 lashes per eye (only along the top lid) which lasted for about 4 weeks (they say it’s anywhere from 2 – 8 weeks depending on your eyelash growth rate). You do have to be careful in maintaining them but they are well worth it especially if you are getting it done for a special occasion — they make such a big difference!
After your treatment is done, you are briefed on how to properly care for the lashes, as well as products you should/​should not use. If you wish to get them taken off early, you can schedule an appointment to do so, otherwise they will naturally fall out with your lashes over a few weeks. I spoke so highly of this place that my roommate and coworker both made trips to go here and have loved it as well. This location is pristine and I highly suggest this for first-​time customers of lash extensions.
