So it’s not plastic surgery per se but I had to share here my transformation to you all! I’m not talking about a knife and scalpel but rather some synthetic lashes and some extra human hair pieces. For the holidays I was given a gift certificate to a midtown salon called Uptown Girl. This certificate was for $400.00 so my first thought was great, 3 mos. worth of blow outs! Come to find out this wasn’t your conventional salon but rather a specialty salon offering the latest luxury beauty services, i.e., semi permanent eyelash extensions, hair extensions and yes, permanent make-up (think no more daily eyebrow pencil). Nonetheless it started with getting a full set of the eyelash extensions- hooked! And then I decided to add 5 inches to my shouldar length hair and voila- I cannot tell you the transformation I have experienced. This has been the biggest self esteem booster and I’m kicking myself for not trying this sooner! The compliments have been nonstop, the dates much more plentiful and I feel fabulous with this new look! I guess I wanted to share my experience as the eyelash and hair extensions have really been a makeover miracle for me and I am completely elated for having had been given this amazing holiday gift. For those of you that don’t know about these services, www.uptowngirlnyc.com. I just had to share! Let me know if you get the opportunity to try some out for yourselves as I am a huge fan now!
