How much do Eyelash Extensions Cost in Australia?
The cost of eyelash extensions will depend on a few factors. Here are some questions you may want to ask yourself before heading to a lash salon near you:
- Are you planning on doing your lash extensions yourself or getting them done by a professional lash technician?
- What style of lash extensions best match your eyes and look? Classic Lashes, Volume Lashes or Hybrid Lashes?
- What quality lash extensions are you aiming for? As cheap as possible, mid-range or high-quality?
- If you are getting your lashes done professionally, what level of experience do you want your lash tech to have?
- Are you willing to invest a little extra for the proper eyelash extension aftercare to keep your lashes looking great for longer?
Depending on how you answer these questions and as a general guide, the cost of eyelash extensions in 2022 can be anywhere between AUD $50 for a DIY Lash Extensions Set or fill-ins up to $400 for professionally-applied Max Volume Lash Extensions. The price you pay also depends on your location and the experience of your technician of choice.
But besides pricing, there are a few other things you should consider.

Is The Cost of Eyelash Extensions Worth It?
Even though the cost of getting your eyelash extensions done professionally can seem a little pricey at first glance, many women agree that it is worth the investment. Why? Because unless you have extensive experience using DIY Eyelash Extensions, it’s not recommended to try and do it yourself just to save cost. Chances are you will end up with a disappointing result, which can be incredibly frustrating.
Eyelash extensions, when professionally applied, can last anywhere from 4 to 8 weeks with the proper aftercare, so you definitely get your money’s worth and save yourself the frustration of trying to figure it all out on your own.
In addition, well-applied eyelash extensions save you time in the morning because there is no more need to put on mascara or spend time to get the curls just right. Lash extensions also give you a more natural look than false lashes, which is an important aspect and one of the main reasons our clients come to us.
In short, eyelash extensions offer a multitude of benefits that can make your eyelashes look thicker, longer, and more intense. And if perfect lashes provide you with the confidence necessary to get out of bed in the morning to pursue your dream life, aren’t they absolutely worth it?

Common Mistakes to Avoid When Getting Eyelash Extensions
While getting lash extensions is generally a simple and easy process, there are some common mistakes that you’d want to try and avoid. To help you ensure that you absolutely love the results, here are some things you might want to consider.
1. Be sure to pick a style of lashes that matches your eyes and personal look
This is where the expertise of an experienced eyelash extension specialist will come in very handy. At Superstar Attraction, we include a professional consultation at your initial appointment to ensure you clearly understand your options and guide you in your decision, so you can be confident that you are making the right choice.
Choosing the wrong style of lash extensions can make your eyes look odd or unnatural. For example, classic lashes may be too long for your eyes, while volume lashes may be too thick. Hybrid lashes are a good middle ground between the two styles. Make sure to get the opinion of a professional who understands the differences between styles and how to find your perfect match.
2. Investing in high-quality lash extensions can really pay off and save you money in the long-term
Many women who are getting eyelash extensions done for the first time focus too much on price and aim for cheaper low-cost lash extensions. Third, they don’t invest in proper aftercare for their lash extensions. If you get cheap lashes, they will likely fall out sooner and look less natural than higher-quality lashes.

Finally, aftercare for your lash extensions is essential to keep them looking fabulous for longer. You should avoid rubbing or touching your eyes and only use a good quality product to clean them gently. At your eyelash appointment with Superstar Attraction, we will make sure to give you a run-down on how to best care for your lashes, so you can enjoy them longer.
