Thanks for validating my frustration. Someone I know just got some and I felt instantly annoyed and couldn’t put my finger on why. Besides the fact that she looks like she has funky catty-wampus plugs in her eyelids, and she has beautiful naturally thick eyelashes! It’s SO distracting. I’m trying to talk to her and all I’m thinking is WEIRD. Don’t look. Don’t. Look. And I struggle to allow myself to purchase a pair of $20 shoes.

I so enjoy your posts but alas, I am one of "those" women who have paid for eyelash extensions. I'm not particularly vain (I prefer not to look like I just rolled out of bed but some days, I do just that and go on about my merry way) but I like to change my look... a lot! This time, I did it with lash extensions.<br /><br />See, I've been a chameleon since I can remember and it hasn't always made me the most popular person. When I was younger, I decided to be a cheerleader one year; another year I discovered how awesome The Cure, Depeche Mode, Siouxsie and the Banshees, etc. were and decided to dress like them; another year, on a whim, I cut my hair SUPER short (not Sinead O'Connor-short but it was damn short). Kids in school wanted to beat me up because I was different, an ex-boyfriend asked me why I wanted to hide how pretty I was (seriously?) and I even got kicked out of my house (that was after the hair incident). <br /><br />As an adult, I've always been a little different but have toned it down for the workplace. About a year ago, I found old photos and realized that I missed changing my look and thought it was time to be a chameleon again. The Robert Smith look is a little old and not conducive to getting ahead at work, so I decided to be a little less drastic with my changes. I started with chopping the hair off, much to the absolute horror of my friends and coworkers. After that, it was highlights. Recently, it was the eyelashes.<br /><br />After the summer, I think I might chop all the hair off again, go super dark and wear glasses. Maybe go for a 60's, beatnik look. I don't know... maybe it will be something I don't even know about (reference to Old School there in case you didn't get that).<br /><br />I know I am opening up myself to tons of criticism here and I get where you are coming from regarding the lashes. At the same time, I just want to throw it out there that not everyone who gets eyelash extensions is adding to the pressure to look good whatever the cost.<br /><br />Sometimes, girls just wanna have fun.<br /><br />PS - still want me to throw your number away?SiouxsieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04497125588899586949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-29087311252399362042013-06-12T19:26:08.667-05:002013-06-12T19:26:08.667-05:00I was absolutely floored by that eyelash medicatio...I was absolutely floored by that eyelash medication, too, as it was marketed purely for cosmetic reasons.

Have you read the Hunger Games books (or at least seen the movie)? whenever I read about things like this it makes me think of the Capital and how it was portrayed as a extreme version of the modern culture's obsession with beauty and youth while at the same time wasting resources in contrast with other parts of the world who were literally starving to death. <br />@ HomeGrownFace - Jen (and many commenters, myself included) are stating that people should NOT be doing all of this to their bodies... because it is hurting all of us as a whole. Yes, we have freedom to do what we want, if you want to spend hundreds of dollars to make yourself look young and beautiful, do it, but please ask yourself why. I don't feel hostile, I feel concerned... where will it end? How far will we go? When will we start to just accept that we are not abnormally perfect and move on to more rational and valuable things? Things with eternal value?? {steps down off of soap box}Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07271472544623395546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984487997306130330.post-17141162984272283642013-06-12T10:44:07.995-05:002013-06-12T10:44:07.995-05:00Eye lash perms?
