I went to get my lashes done today with Astor and I could not be happier! She is truly an expert at what she does - she pays great attention to detail and makes sure you get the exact look you want. I have had my lashes done many times in the past, and she is by far the best! read more

Best lash experience in the Peninsula! Have been searching for a long time to have someone to done my lash in a natural way, because I've tried a lot of different places in the bay area, they are either too dramatic or too costly. Dolly Effect did a great job on my lashes. Natural and reasonable pricing. If you are deciding to do your first set of extension, I recommend Dolly Effect. read more

Astor is amazing. I've only gotten my eyelashes done once prior to her and they never really held up. But for Astor's work and her consultation with taking care of the eyelashes, it helped. I'm a trainer as well too and I work long hours constantly on the floor, as well as doing training for myself so I have a lot of oils and sweat on my face which would cause eyelashes to fall even more. I had minimal shedding for these extensions and I love it. Got compliments right away my first week and continuing to get some! Highly recommend if it's your first time getting eyelashes. :) read more

I first came here out of curiosity because my friend wouldn't stop batting her eyelashes and raving about Astor. At our first appointment, she talked me thru different options& procedure & told me how to care for eyelashes at home& what to expect. The actual process is about an hour (ish) long & I was so happy with results that I've gone back several times. Friendly scheduling assistant (Nancy) & front desk person. Easy street parking. By now, Im comfortable enough to pop in (lavender, soft bed, mellow spa music) for a quick nap while Astor works her magic. The best part? Steady stream of compliments & no make-up needed. #wokeuplikethis read more

IM SOO HAPPY with the service I received at Dolly Effect! Today I got my very first set of lash extensions and this experience was AMAZING. First off, their shop is the cutest and I picked this place because of their cleanliness. The gentleman at the front desk greeted me by name and as I filled out paperwork he talked me through the process of what I will be expecting. He really spent quality time and asked me questions to know exactly what I wanted. The application process took a little under an hour but it was so relaxing I honestly caught myself falling asleep more than once. I have so much more to say about their EXCELLENT but this would be way too long. I'm never going anywhere else! read more

This place is AMAZING! Super professional and kind staff, did not have to wait at all upon coming in and was in and out (I got a full Hybrid set) in an hour and a half. This time included the initial consultation, so things moved fast! Atmosphere is so relaxing, I fell asleep on the (super) comfortable table - perfect temperature, calming music and lighting. Lash artist was gentle, SO quick, and precise! My lashes look and feel amazing; I will be certainly be coming back. If you are looking for well-done lashes at an unbeatable price, go here! The process was so easy - from scheduling all the way to paying. 5 stars all the way. read more

I've been putting off writing a review for so long, but this place deserves credit. This is the only place I have ever gotten my lashes done at, and it will be the only place I'll EVER go to! Keep in mind that I live in the East Bay, but will gladly drive all the way out here to get my lashes done. Every member of the staff here is super friendly and professional. They are very responsive to texts and scheduling an appointment with them is so easy. The studio is very cute and clean. Downstairs, they have a private room (curtained off), a makeup removal station, and up the spiral stair case, they have two beds. And the beds- they are so comfy! They even give you a blanket. They play relaxing music and have diffusers, so the place smells like lavender. I look forward to my appointments here because not only do I get my lashes done, I get to relax! I've fallen asleep so many times while getting my lashes done, haha. They even give you a scalp massage at the end of your session! There are so many other good things I could say about this place...I could go on and on. But check this place out for yourself! read more

Best eye lashes extensions place . Best service here. Can keep long time n very professional

First time I got lash extensions and this place made the experience amazing. I felt extremely well taken care of at this place. From booking an appointment to the aftercare, this place is on point! Jonathan was so warm welcoming and very thorough with explaining the process and helping with decisions and details for eye lash length and style for my eye shape and as a first timer. My technician name was May and she was so sweet and kind. If you're interested in lash extensions, get em done here !! read more

Considered getting an extension for a really long time and did a lot of research and was finally ready. A friend told me to come to Dolly Effect and I am sad I didn't start sooner! My lashes stay on 3/4 weeks and i don't even use mascara anymore, it's amazing! I went with a natural set, it feels great to only have to worry about some Concealer and blush. The girls are all so amazing and sweet! Appointments are pretty fast, comfy and they are saints with rescheduling. read more

I had a fantastic experience at Dolly Effect. It was my first time getting lash extensions and I was a little nervous not knowing what to expect. Lydia was really great with helping choose the best lashes for me for my first time. I got a light natural look and I love them. Ada was my lash specialist and she did an awesome job. Dolly Effect is the place to go!! read more

Amazing service! They are definitely a staple lash studio that you should have in your routine! Trust me!

Having naturally long lashes I was always hesitant to try extentions but gave in before my recent vacation . I thought it would be a great low maintenance experience. 2 stars are for the attentiveness and cute boutique that Dolly Effect is. Upon entering I was greeted in a prompt and very friendly manor. I showed the technicians photos of what I was looking for. I wanted a mixed set. Some added length and volume but not too much. Seeing as how I already have a ton of lashes I knew I didn't need a volume set, but they kept pushing a volume set. I was told the process would take about 2 hours. Fast forward 4 hours later and I was finally done. I attribute the length of my appointment to the fact that, like I said I have a ton of lashes and it took the girl forever. I was a little overwhelmed with what I saw once completed. A very, very dramatic look. I expressed my disappointment of the overall look with the receptionist. She kept reiterating how they were just something I had to get used to, but if I wasn't happy I can go back upstairs lay down and have them removed immediately. After laying there for 4 hours I was not going to go through the process of removal. In the first few days I lost about 6 to 12 clusters of lashes. Clusters , as in five lashes glued together and stuck unsuccessfully to my natural lash. After about 3 weeks I could not take it anymore and requested to have them removed. During an appointment that took about a half hour I endured the uncomfortable removal of my lashes, and there was no doubt that my natural lashes were being removed while the extensions were removed. Every tug and pinch- I felt! I expressed my discomfort to the technician and she tried to excuse the pain for the fact that I had "cotton" stuck to my lashes from the use of Qtips or cotton pads. When I let her know that all I was using was the micro tip they gave me she responded "oh, ok". I have attached a photo of the lashes removed and you can see my natural lash attached to almost every one. I was very upset at the state of my natural lashes after this whole process. I had the extensions on for a total of 3 weeks. My natural lashes are short, stubby, brittle and almost non-existent. I was told that it's just a shock to me because I am used to seeing the Lash extensions on my eyes when in fact my eyelashes are extremely damaged. This appointment was wrapped up with the associate of Dolly effect trying to sell me a lash serum for $50 which I later found on Amazon for $25. I know women who have had lash extensions on for over a year and they're lashes are not in the state that mine are today. I can honestly say this was such a horrible experience that I will never revisit again. read more

i've went to a couple places in the past to get lash extensions and dolly effect has been by far the most detailed and relaxing experience. there have been places i went to where they just put whatever style on me and don't explain anything & times where i have just been left laying on the bed unattended for long periods of time. as a new client, dolly effect goes over what to expect and what kinds of lashes you want, ranging from length, curl, adhesive, & style. they are very thorough and explain what each style looks like and what is recommended in regards to what style you're looking for. after getting the lashes done, they feel light but also sturdy, the process was relaxing and efficient (took about 1 1/2 hours, i've had places where i was there for 2+ hours) and my lash tech was very professional. i never once felt uncomfortable, definitely recommend coming here for anyone looking to get lash extensions!! read more

Love this place! Its a very small and quaint space. Staff are very nice and accommodating. They really care about the outlook and retention of your lash extensions. They make the time and effort to give you very personalized advice and recommendations, a service less common with typical lash extension places. My go-to place near Daly City :) read more

I have been wanting to get eyelash extensions for over 3 years now but have had many hesitations. Now that I am working in corporate while going to school, eye make up just takes way tooooo long in the mornings. I'd rather do my brows and base and get my butt out the door, so I opted to get these extensions. This was my absolute first time getting eyelash extensions, and I am beyond impressed for a few reasons- First off, the facility is absolutely stunning. The interior had me in awe internally (calm, quiet and peaceful). Trimmings were extremely tasteful and had my inner designer quite content. Secondly, the stuff are incredibly accommodating, sweet and mindful of your personal tastes and will work with you to figure out which lashes would be the best for your eye shape and your personal style. There are so many different variations of each style. I just had them choose something for me personally and I thought they worked perfectly for my eye shape. If you're anything like me, you're the type that researches the crap out of something before you try it. I was so scared to get extensions because of all the rumors of eyelashes falling out, the glue hurting eyelids.. etc however, there was none of that with this place. The glue ONLY hurts if you open your eyes during the procedure (which I do naturally because I sleep with my eyes slightly open.... yikes I know.. a nightmare). The application process does not hurt in the slightest and is very peaceful and quick yet thorough. I felt that each lash was being taken care of. HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend for everyone. First timers or you are looking for a new lash studio :) Thank you, Dolly Effect! xo Daniela read more

Love this place! Found out about dolly effect roughly a year ago when I moved back home from SoCal. I've been getting my eyelash extensions done in Orange County, so when I moved back, I was afraid I wouldn't find a place I'd like. Fast forward a year later, and I've been getting my eyelashes done by dolly effect since. I think there are 3(?) lash technicians, and they all do amazing work! From the people to the place, they are super nice, accommodating, thorough, and clean. Scheduling with them is never stressful. Parking is convenient, there's free 2 hour street parking right outside! My eyelashes would last me 3 good weeks and could be longer if I didn't want a fill yet. The eyelashes are light weight, it doesn't feel like I have them on! Overall, I love that they all care about their clients from the beginning til the end of the process. Definitely recommend this place! - Elisa N. read more

After 2 years with Dolly Effect (Colma) studio, I recently moved to their San Bruno studio due to my recent move. However, from time to time I will take Bart to visit the Colma team because they are near to the Bart station and I can visit them when the SB studio is fully booked. Quaintly of work, customer service and convenience are very important to me, in DE, I can enjoyed them all. Thank you DE that allow me to sleep a little more in the morning while I can still receive a lot of compliments without doing make up. What can I ask for more? Definitely recommend this place to everyone! read more

This will be my third time going here and I seriously love my lashes.The staff here are so friendly.I will continue to go to this places for my lashes that's how much I love it. read more

My first appointment with Dolly (Colma) was in the summer of 2017, and I haven't left! There are so many reasons why I have stayed a customer with Dolly Effect. First off, every staff member is always courteous. Whether it's Nancy (who messages and facilitates scheduling), the front desk greeting you (Lydia or Jonathan), or the eyelash stylist themselves, you are treated with respect as a valued customer. Second, the quality of lashes are really good. They fall off little by little as the days and weeks go by, but their volume and style are consistent and make getting ready in the morning an easier task (all I do is add foundation and lip gloss, and I'm good to go)! Third, the wonderful head massage at the end of your appointment always feels so refreshing when lying down in one position for so long. This may not be the cheapest place for service, but you DEFINITELY get what you pay for, and it's worth every penny. read more

I would recommend this place to you and your lashes. I felt very welcomed and accommodated. It was an amazing experience. I've never had such wonderful lashes done in a short period of time. I was surprised to look at the time when it was time for me to go. Friendly staff as well. Thank you ladies so much. read more

I love Astor. I have been getting my eye lashes done religiously every three weeks for the last year and I would not go anywhere else.

Went for my first eyelash extensions at the Colma location. A new Dolly Effect opened in San Bruno. Loved the experience, friendly, courteous and very knowledgeable. I had the procedure and types of lashes offered explained to me thoroughly. I chose the mixed lashes and so happy with the results. No mascara for me anymore. Just what I wanted, easy and quick exit out of my home without spending too much time on makeup. I highly recommend and will return in two weeks for a follow-up. read more

This place is a gem, I've been here 3 times now and have never left disappointed, everyone there does an amazing job and are always so welcoming. Kay is magic.

They also listen to any of your wants and they try to accommodate it. I love the calming atmosphere and how quiet they talk and move. read more

I have been going to Dolly Effect in San Bruno for half a year and this is my first time visiting their Colma location. Their staff are very friendly and their work are as good as the San Bruno store. I love to get my lashes done after work and it is always nice to relax while having my lashes done. Their environment and very relaxing, their lashes hold very much and I love to get my lashes refill every 3 weeks. I definitely would recommend them to everyone. read more

The space was inviting and spa like. The consultation process was thorough. Great customer service! Love my lashes!

Astor is fantastic. I took a couple years off from lash extensions due to weakening lashes. I decided to start up again after reading good reviews on Dolly Effect; the price point is so much more affordable than the last salon i went to in San Francisco which provided great quality but services are nearly double the price of Dolly Effect. Astor informed me that i should be applying lash growth serum with my extensions in to prevent the weakening of my lashes. She's good at listening to what styles and looks I like. The quality of extensions is also great here - i believe they are all mink. I have the volume mix extensions in right now and will definitely continue coming here! I highly recommend Dolly Effect for more affordable and high quality extensions. read more

I love Dolly Effect! I faithfully go to Astor every 3 weeks. Her team is always understanding and super polite. I definitely recommend Dolly Effect to everyone!!! read more

I'm so happy I discovered Astor, Nancy & Dolly Effect on Yelp!! It was my 1st time getting eyelash extensions & the whole process..from scheduling the appointment, to coming in today to have them done...was so easy & problem free. Astor took the time to explain the difference between the type of sets they have & what would be best for my eye shape, especially since I was a newbie. In the end, I absolutely love them & can't wait to show them off. And the head massage once she was done...amazing! read more

Since this was my first time getting eyelash extensions so I did extensive research beforehand and quiet a few of my friends recommend Dolly Effect to me. I tried and text a few times but they booked up pretty quickly, so I definitely recommend calling in a week or two in advance. The staff here are so friendly and knowledgeable, the consultation was very thorough and they were so patience in explaning the process. My artist was very gentle and the whole 2 hours application was very soothing. The lashes turned out so so nice and that was what I was expecting! I highly recommend this place to anyone who's interested in getting their lashes done. read more

Villa did an amazing job with my lashes. I was greeted with exceptional customer service before my short consultation. Villa understood the look I wanted and also gave recommendations. I am so glad that there is now a local place to get lash extensions done, I'm all about supporting local businesses. I must say that they are cheaper and quicker than any other place I have been to for a new full set! I was in there for less than 2 hours and paid nearly $60 less than what I would pay in SF! I already got a friend to go there and will be using my referral discount at my next visit in a few weeks :) read more

i have been searching for my affordable 'go-to' place for eyelash extensions for several long months now. unfortunately a lot of the places i've been to, either do not offer 3d volume lashes or claims to offer 3d volume lashes and then end up giving me natural (not noticeable) lashes. made my round to dolly effect because the prices seemed lower than other places in the area (and with good reviews of course). i came out of the salon with actual volume lashes! i was surprised to get what i was paying for!! coworkers are commenting on my lashes, because it's 'noticeable'. i appreciate their professional customer service at the front desk. jonathan took his time to explain their service, their products and to update me on the waiting time. took awhile to find my go-to place. but this will be it. i usually don't make follow up appointments right away, but i wanted to come back and get lashes done here for an upcoming wedding. read more

From the ease of booking to kind people that check you in and then the amazing lashes this place is great! I had my lashes done in Chicago for 4 years and went to 3 different studios in SF until I found Dolly Effect and was happy! 100% recommend them! read more

I've been coming to Dolly Effects since summer of 2017 and I've always been happy with their services. They use high quality products and they want the best healthy lashes for their clients. I wanted to give my lashes a break for a month and a half and although some fell out (due to growth), they were overall in good condition. My refills are always fast, quick and they last me at least 3 - 4 weeks. Their lashes never feel heavy or uncomfortable. I found my "forever home" for my lashes. read more
