Hey everyone~ I finally tried a lash lift for the first time in my life! So nervous-excited

I'd always been curious about lash lifts, but every time I searched I kept running into reviews about eyes swelling and turning red afterward, so as someone with sensitive skin I kept putting it off. After a lot of searching, I found a shop with really high review satisfaction and curl photos that convinced me to finally try it! The place I chose was On The Boutique near Seonjeongneung Station, which is ✔️gentle on sensitive skin and ✔️lasts a long 6–8 weeks.

How to get to On The Boutique from Seonjeongneung Station

It's about a 2-minute walk from Exit 4 of Seonjeongneung Station, so access is great! Public transit is much more convenient than driving here.

There's even a ✔️certified hygiene-safe business mark posted at the entrance~👍 that gave me peace of mind.

Inside On The Boutique: a one-person private lash studio

You put on indoor slippers before entering, and since it's a one-person private room, the space inside is cozy!

The treatment area is by the wardrobe and bed — hygienic, and while I was getting ready I had a little look around

A bunch of eye-catching awards and trophies raised my expectations haha

On The Ttolmang perm before and after on sensitive skin

The On The Ttolmang perm I got at On The Boutique was the "bbajjak" (tight-curl) style, and the treatment took 50 minutes. Since it was my first time, I didn't really know which style would suit me, so I asked based on review photos. I couldn't tell whether I wanted the tight bbajjak look or something more natural, so during the consultation the director looked at my face shape, lash condition, and eye shape and suggested the style that was perfectly right for me — I trusted her expert eye and said, okay, let's do that~

The whole process took about 50 minutes! Despite my worries, the director's calm, gentle touch had me drifting off to sleep. 😴 It was gentle on the skin, too~

My verdict on this first lash lift: completely satisfied! 😎👍 There was just the slightest bit of puffiness around my double eyelid, but no redness and no visible damage — I keep wanting to look at my newly defined eyes~

So from here on, the before/after photos I'm about to show you are of the On The Ttolmang perm, bbajjak style, at On The Boutique~ (my face is a bit round with a slight chin) [ BEFORE ] / [ AFTER ]

I think going bbajjak was the right call! My eyes look so much more defined, and finished off with On The black coating, that definition doubles — total win~

If I had more lashes it would've looked even fuller and prettier... guess I need to start diligently applying lash serum from now on! I'm so curious how it'll look going forward! My satisfaction from this first professional lash treatment is so high that I already want to come back for maintenance!

How do you care for lashes after a Korean lash lift?

• ✔️ Don't wash your face until 5 hours after the treatment
• ✔️ Avoid pools, jjimjilbangs (sauna), saunas, and intense exercise!
• ✔️ Mascara is okay, but don't rub or scrub when cleansing!
• ✔️ When removing eye makeup, avoid rubbing with cotton pads, cotton swabs, or cleansing tissues!
• ✔️ Rubbing your eyes can make the curl come undone messily!
• ✔️ Avoid using an eyelash curler too!
• ✔️ For those getting regular lash lifts, lash serum care isn't optional — it's essential!
• ✔️ Individual lashes each have their own growth cycle, so lashes that have finished growing naturally fall out~ this is completely natural and not caused by the lift, so no need to worry!
