SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (WJBK) -- From glue on fakes to lash extensions, let's face it eyelashes are big. Jennifer Aniston admits to tinting her eyelashes, but even if it's just old fashioned mascara you're using, most agree with Andrea Ubom from Franklin Spa.
"Longer lashes make you look prettier," she said.
Looking for longer, darker lashes, FOX 2's Deena Centofanti ended up at the Franklin Spa in West Bloomfield. Before the tinting, esthetician Roda removed her makeup.
Anytime anyone is touching your eyes, you need to do your homework, and Deena did. She paid a visit to Beaumont opthmoligist Barbara Kuczynski. to ask her about eyelash tinting.
"Most the people who like to do it are more blondes ... so that they can do it to have the darker lashes without having to do all the mascara and applying it 24/7 just so they can actually have some eyelashes," she said.
The doctor gave Deena the green light with a warning.
"It does or can get into the eye. It can create a little bit of a chemical irritation, a little bit of burn," she said.
Deena asked Roda how many eyelashes she has tinted.
"Usually we do maybe ten or 15 a week," she told her.
Has she ever had a bad reaction?
"No, never bad reaction. Just one thing, maybe you will feel a little kind of tingling in your eye," Roda explained.
Back at the salon, the tint was mixed and ready. It's a vegetable-based dye that will last for about four weeks. The cost is about $35.
While this may be new to Deena, it's been around for years.
"The tints started to get more prevalent when the lashes started getting more prevalent," Ubom said.
A few minutes later, there was definitely some stinging as the dye came off, and then the result. It was a slight improvement, but Deena says she won't be giving up her drug store mascara anytime soon.
