Say goodbye to short, sparse, stick-straight lashes and hello to long, lush ones at the best eyelash extension salons in Singapore.
We’re guilty of using a plethora of makeup products as much as the next beauty junkie, but let’s be honest. Nothing beats a set of fluttery, lush lashes (with the help of some mascara) that’ll turn heads with a bat of an eyelid. And since many of us in Singapore are cursed with exasperatingly stubby or sparse ones (no shame though!), eyelash extensions are the way to go.
Before you do your lash extensions…
First off, how do eyelash extensions work? Before you go down the YouTube rabbit hole of fails – trust us, things can get pretty nasty if you don’t go to a legit salon – here’s what you need to know.
There are mainly three types of extensions: mink, synthetic and silk. Want that J. Lo wink? We hear mink is the way to go if you don’t mind the hefty price tag. Synthetic and silk lashes are affordable alternatives commonly used in Singapore. They’re also incredibly versatile, whether you’re in the mood for natural or full-on glam doll flutters.
Each lash is carefully glued onto your natural lashes at least 1mm away from your lash line to avoid irritation. Of course, if you want to be extra careful, make sure the salon uses formaldehyde-free lash glue. Each session takes about two hours and can last from two weeks to a month before your next touch-up.
Now that you’ve been eye-ducated, here are the top eyelash extension salons in Singapore to get your peepers looking on point. *wink*
Best eyelash extension salons in Singapore
1. Dr. Lash
The detailed procedure here includes an eyelash consultation, a lash health check and a lash cleansing spa to ensure top-notch hygiene and safety. Choose your lashes from the likes of au natural, diva or in the style of the three Kardashian ladies. Next, pick your length and curl and you’re good to go!
Dr. Lash, multiple locations including Orchard, Paya Lebar, Tanjong Pagar and VivoCity
2. Lolita’s Lash
It’s serious business at Lolita’s Lash: all services are done by professionally certified extensionists. Rushing for time? The Elleebana Lash Lift only needs five to eight minutes for the lifting solution to take effect, as compared to traditional perming solutions that require at least 45 minutes. Oh, and each lash is also coated with keratin for an additional layer of protection. Long-lasting lashes, here we come!
Lolita’s Lash, #01-10, The Riverwalk, 20 Upper Circular Road, Singapore 058416
3. J. Lashes
We think the eyelash extension services from J. Lashes are next level. Cheat your way through the au natural look with the classic eye-do. None of those nasty broom-like lashes here – up to 400 single strands are attached to your current lashes. Our money’s on the Camellia technique where up to six different lengths of synthetic lashes are used for a natural but fuller look. Sorry, mascara what?

4. KJStudio
KJStudio is an eyelash salon by Japanese experts. Impeccable service aside, it claims a spot on our list thanks to the services offered, which range from single lash extensions (starting from $70 for 80 lashes) to colour gradation (perfect for those who want to add some colour to their peepers) to volume lash extensions.

5. Dreamlash
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again – no one does beauty like Koreans. At Dreamlash, you’re guaranteed to leave with the full yet natural-looking lashes of K-stars. Using a single strand technique, lash experts will customise the right lash design for your eye shape. Like other lash salons, you can build your dream lashes with the right length, thickness and curl. But here, you can also “correct” your eye shape (a downturned eye, for example) with the help of a skilled therapist.
Dreamlash, multiple locations including Citylink Mall and Compass One
6. Private Room
At Private Room, therapists don’t count eyelashes. The strand-by-strand extensions are unlimited, unlike other lash salons. Try the Russian Volume method: two to nine lightweight extensions are applied to each natural lash to create softer volume, so even those with the sparest of lashes will leave with va-va-voom volume.
Private Room, multiple locations including Holland Village and Zion Road
7. Milly’s Singapore
This one-stop beauty destination deserves every bit of its rep – services are affordable and always tip-top. Made of synthetic single-fibre polyester thread-like material, these lashes come in variations of length, thickness and style. We recommend going with single lashes, though cluster ones are available too. Customise your perfect lashes by choosing a type of curl, the length between 6mm and 15mm, as well as the type (natural or full-on glamorous).

8. Qween Lashes
If it’s dramatically lush lashes you seek, you’ll find them at Qween lashes. The coveted Russian lash extensions use a fan of four to nine eyelashes applied to each lash for a voluminous look to battle that of the Kardashians.

9. Browhaus
Don’t let the name fool you; these brow pros are skilled in lash extensions too. Try the Lash In Bloom service: semi-permanent falsies are applied individually by hand to create the perfect set of natural, lush lashes that’ll last between three to six weeks. For a more subtle effect, Browhaus also offers lash curling and colouring with prices starting from $45.

10. Allure Secrets
Prefer the cosy confines of a home-based salon? The secret’s out, westies. This is an underground favourite, thanks to its affordable prices, painless extension process and stringent hygiene standards. Four types of extensions are offered – classic, volume 2D, 3D and 4D/5D. They adhere to the strict protocol of leaving a 1mm to 2mm gap between the extension and lash line so follicles remain untouched (you don’t have to worry about skin inflammations!).

As its name suggests, this homegrown beauty parlour specialises in grooming your arches to perfection with eyebrow threading and embroidery.

Using a gentle Korean application technique, Highbrow offers a variety of eyelash extension styles (classic, cat eye, butterfly or cirrus) starting from $128.
