Getting authentic Japanese eyelash extensions done in Singapore is now possible! And I stress, authentic!
Discovering eyelash extension has been really liberating, especially for someone like me who frankly needs to spend more time at dolling up before leaving the house. The good thing about eyelash extension, is that you do not need to do much, since its already there! Semi-permanent.
So now all I need to do is to dust some foundation, blusher and off I go. (hahah as you can see, I spend more time cooking in the morning than dolling up myself)
I am also particular about the quality of eyelash extension, I wanted the Japanese standard where it is really pretty but looks so natural.
When I was in Tokyo, I found a really great place at Harajuku that did eyelash extensions, and it was also very affordable.
After I return to SG, I have had at least 4~5 people whispering to me... erm... your eyelashes look really pretty.. is it extension or real? See! that last part is very important, you want people to actually feel like it could really be your own eyelashes but still obvious enough for them to notice.
Now that 3 weeks has passed since I returned, I was getting a little worried on how I am going to maintain my eyelash extension
My prayers were answered, Eye Studio Tokyo opened in Liang Court mall. Eye Studio Tokyo is a eyelash extension salon run by a Japanese lady owner, Tomomi Nakamura san. She uses lashes made in Japan, so you can be assured of the quality.
Now that I had already experienced the service, I highly recommend the store for Japanese eyelash extensions in Singapore!

Eye Studio Tokyo's salon interior is nicely decorated, with mainly pink and white color theme; comfortable chairs for resting while you wait for your appointment. There are also magazines for you to browse while waiting. This Eye Studio Tokyo salon has already been featured in several Japanese magazines!
I would recommend that you plan early when trying to get an appointment! The place is popular. Many Japanese customers visit the store, judging by whom I met on my way in and out on my appointment day.
Services
Now back to the question, what type/style of eyelash extensions should I do? I was very happy to note that the type of lashes and styles offered was the same as what I saw in Japan.
Basically you make your selection of Curl, Thickness and Design: (the info below is taken from their brochure)
I decided on D-curl (the most curvy), 0.15mm (medium thickness), Natural design, and I had 100 nos (50 for each eye). I think I will go for 120 nos for my next visit!
If you prefer to go out with a bang, then you can try the Glamorous design which gives you maximum volume.
I took photographs of the process, click on the pictures below for a larger view.
Store Staff
I was very lucky that I got my service from the salon's director, Nakamura san. But don't worry, they promise that their staff are all well trained and experience Japanese that will give you the Japanese type of eyelash extensions!
I was however a little worried about how she is going to manage my 'leftover' lashes. But Nakamura san fixed it perfectly, she managed to remove some of the lashes and there was no traces of them.
There is now a promotion where you can purchase 2 visits coupon for $150 (1 time is $75) for any amount of lashes. This is what I bought!

If you are choosing 120 numbers of lashes, that translates to $30 savings in total!
