Abbey Achieved the Perfect Wedding Look with Eyelash Extensions at Concrete Image

For my wedding, I knew I wanted one less thing to worry about so I decided to call Concrete Image Salon in Waite Park to get my eyelash extensions done.

I had used glue-on fake eyelashes in the past for numerous events like proms, photoshoots, past weddings I had been in, and other events, but they always left my eyes irritated. And worse yet, within hours the glue would start to lift off, and they would need to be re-applied. That was the last thing I wanted to happen on my wedding day, I’m the bride! I’m too busy to mess with that.

So I contacted Concrete Image Salon — one of the best salons in the whole region — and made an appointment with Shannon for the Friday before my wedding. She got me in right away at 9 am and within a short amount of time, I had glamorous eyelashes that would put any celebrity to shame.

The process of getting the lashes was so relaxing, for an hour and a half I got to lay back, relax, and have Shannon give my lashes a complete makeover. It was so nice to take that time to myself, and know at the end of it I would be looking amazing. As she was putting them on, she was giving me a rundown on how to properly care for them, and what the proper schedule would be to keep them filled and looking good (every three weeks).

I couldn’t believe how incredible they looked. Even with just the eyelashes on and no other makeup, I looked like I was ready to walk down the aisle. Here's a look at the before and after:

The whole weekend I was getting compliments on how great my eyelashes looked, and I gladly kept telling everyone my secret, Concrete Image Salon!

My own wedding was just the start of what I’m calling: 2022, the Year of the Wedding because my two best friends are also having their weddings this year. With them come bachelorette parties, showers, and more.

My game plan? Make it easy on myself and keep going to Concrete Image Salon to get my eyelash extensions filled in and photo-ready! Mary, the owner, makes sure her staff is involved in ongoing education so they're always up on the latest trends and techniques. Plus, I love their location on Third Street, right across from Crossroads Shopping Center. Be sure to check them out yourself at concreteimagesalon.com or by calling (320) 529-0400.
