What Are DIY Lashes and Why Are They Better?
The Future of Eyelashes is DIY
You no longer need to spend a fortune at the salon or struggle with false lashes that fall off halfway through the day. DIY lashes are changing the game, offering an easy, affordable, and customizable option for those who love perfect lashes without the hassle.
But what exactly are DIY eyelashes and why are they becoming a favourite among many? Here we explain.
What Are DIY Lashes?
DIY lashes are semi-permanent eyelash extensions that you can apply yourself at home —no need to go to a lash tech. They're sold in clusters, segments, or individuals , and are applied under or over your natural lashes for a more natural look.
Unlike strip lashes, which can feel thick and uncomfortable, DIY lashes blend seamlessly with your natural lashes and give a salon finish without the cost or application time.
✨ DIY Eyelashes Features:
✔ In groups or individually – You decide how full you want them.
✔ Bond & seal glue – Lasts up to 7 days without peeling off.
✔ Super light and comfortable – They don’t feel heavy.
✔ Reusable – With proper care, they last for multiple uses.
Why Are They Better Than Extensions or Strip Lashes?
💰 1. You save money
An in-salon lash application costs between $100-$300 —plus touch-ups every 2-3 weeks. With DIY lashes, you get the same effect for a fraction of the price and can wear them multiple times.
⏳ 2. You save time
Going to the salon takes 1-2 hours , plus driving and waiting time. DIY lashes are applied in 15 minutes from the comfort of your home.
🎭 3. You Decide Your Style
With salon extensions, you are dependent on what the lash tech puts on you. With DIY lashes, you choose:
✔ Natural or dramatic
✔ Wispy or bulky
✔ Short or extra long
🛠 4. Easier to Apply and Remove Than Strip Lashes
Strip lashes can be uncomfortable and peel off at the corners. DIY lashes are lighter, apply in sections, and blend in better with your natural lashes. Best of all, they don't hurt when you remove them.
♻ 5. Reusable and Ecological
Salon extensions fall out as your natural lashes grow, but DIY ones can be reused multiple times, making them a more sustainable option.
👀 6. They Don't Damage Your Natural Eyelashes
Salon extensions can weaken your lashes because they use heavy glues. DIY lashes use lighter, more flexible adhesives, without damaging your natural lashes.
How to Apply DIY Eyelashes in 3 Easy Steps

2️⃣ Apply the glue and stick the lashes – Use a light layer of bond and place the groups of lashes under or on top of the natural lashes.
