Awesome experience!! Vida takes her time and makes sure you are comfortable before getting started! I would 100% recommend!

Vida is a gem! She is professional, kind, patient, and thoughtful. She fully explains everything she is doing and is patient in showing you how to care for your lashes. She provides top notch service and an excellent product. Would not hesitate to recommend her! read more

FIRST Impression: -Full disclosure, I've had my lashes done, intermittently, by Vida over the last 8 years. She is a one woman show that started out in a nail salon, then a hair salon, and now performs her lash services in the basement of (her) single family home. -A quick google search of "Vida Lashes" should bring you to her web page (www. https://www.vidalashesdc.com) for scheduling. -Vida's home workspace layout includes a reclining chair, spa soundscape music, a pleasant earthy aroma, light refreshments and a welcoming smile from Vida : )\ -A thorough discussion and agreement about the style/process of lash extensions is always had before lash application. Vida will make suggestions based on the style you want and the health/capability of your own natural lashes. -Service begins with a very light application of a mixed oil/serum applied to the forehead and temples (this is optional and not necessary for lash services, but smells great AND helps you relax!) -Lash extensions are applied to each individual lash. Depending on your requested style/natural lashes, application takes 2-3 hours. For Families: No. This service is one on one with no extra individuals allowed. It requires concentration from the technician, and remaining relatively still for the client. For Couples: No. If both people are to be serviced, it would still be advised to come at your designated appointment time. For "Kinfolk": Yes! Vida exudes kindness, warmth, professionalism and understanding. She has clients of all races and, as an African American woman, I feel extremely comfortable being myself, and having my services performed here. FINAL Impression: Lash extensions are a huge deal for the people that wear them. Its always tough finding a balance between what is current, trendy, AND good for you in the beauty industry. Vida does a phenomenal job at managing client expectations with what is healthy, hygienic and reasonable for your natural lashes. I always leave extremely satisfied. I work in the medical field and my face is typically covered by a mask and/or shield. I've had patients see my lash extensions THROUGH my face shield and inquire about them. If I ever win the lottery, she's going on my payroll. So go see her before I win! *Pro Tip* Bring earbuds if you want to listen to some music or white-noise for a quick nap! Also long sleeves or a sweater if you get cold easily! Tell her MICHELLE sent ya! read more

Vida did a fabulous job filling my lashes. She was extremely gentle and her chair was SO comfortable. In addition to being very knowledgeable and experienced, Vida spent time with me explaining how to properly care for my lashes and what I should do going forward to keep my lashes healthy. Would definitely recommend her! The space is very nice, too! read more

Vida was extremely professional and courteous. I made an appointment for eye lash extensions and the process was seamless. Vida texted me to push the time back and I really appreciated it that she reached out. She made sure I was comfortable and didn't have any questions before we started the process. I let her know the look i was going for and she definitely delivered. She is very patient and carefully goes through the care process with you so that your lashes last as long as they can. You will be laying down for about two hours, so make sure you don't have anything to drink before. I had water before we started and that was a mistake haha. The location was inviting and clean. I definitely recommend Vida for all of your eyelash needs. read more

Okay.....where to start...DAVIDA!!!!! This woman is unbelievably kind!!! And professional!!!! And talented!!!! And all of the things you hope and want from someone who is apply things to your eyes!!!! The first time I went Davida explained everything to me. Honestly I didn't even really care why she put the lashes where she put them (it was based on the shape of my eye FYI) or why I should use rose water but when I left that place I knew more about eyelashes than I ever even knew I wanted or needed to. Fast forward to three days after I had my eyelash extensions applied....my stepfather died very suddenly. There was a lot of crying and rubbing my eyes and my lashes held up waaayyyy better than I would have expected. I've been back for a relash and I'm hooked on both eyelash extensions AND Davida!! Go and do this for yourself!!! Every single thing about VidaLash is perfection!!! read more

Vita is a professional. Very knowledgeable about her craft. Friendly and takes her time. This was my first time visiting her, and I will definitely return. I like that she really took her time to explain how to treat my lashes, she really went the extra mile to make sure I was relaxed during the visit. She has a signature add on to her service. You won't be disappointed. I can't wait to see how my lashes continue to thrive! read more

If you're looking for great eyelash extensions at a wonderful price, a professional who knows what they're doing and will strive to give you the look you want- you've found the perfect place at Vida Lashes! read more

Vida was warm and welcoming! I've had lashes for almost a decade prior to COVID and gave them up during the pandemic. I decided it was time to start caring about my looks and wanted to feel "beautiful" again so returning to my lash routine was my first step. Having the prior experience of wearing lashes, Vida did not skimp on the consultation (shape and length) and coaching for maintaining them. Really appreciated the before and after photos too. Will resume my lash routine with Vida!!!! read more

I had such a great experience with Vida! She was extremely friendly and professional. She started by welcoming me and asking me if I wanted anything to drink. She then asks questions to make sure that she understands how you want the look to come out, your lash health, and any previous work you've had done on your lashes. She assesses the health of your lashes, applies a lavender scented oil to help you relax, and works gently to apply the lashes. She is very communicative throughout the entire process, which I loved! She even gave recommendations for maintaining and conditioning my lashes. She did a wonderful job of giving me a natural, everyday look that is still dramatic. I will definitely be back! read more

Give Vida Lashes eyelash service a try, you will not regret it!!! They got it right the first time...great results and experience. Vida is a gentle eyelash technician and genuinely cares about the health of your natural lashes. She assesses the health of your lashes, provides professional natural lash care suggestions AND THEN installs an awesome set of lash extensions (with aftercare instructions). It doesn't get any better than that! read more

I love Vida! Not only does she make me look 10 years younger when I leave, she is also gentle and kind. My lashes have changed my like. Getting ready in the morning is no longer a chore with eye lash curlers and dry mascara. All I do is put on tinted moisturizer and lip gloss, before I run out the door. And if I go to the gym during lunch, I hop in the shower quickly and repeat. These lashes are a miracle worker. Sometimes if I run out of the house with my 2 year old, I feel confident that I look somewhat put together. Woo hoo! If your a busy mom, go to Vida. Her lashes will change your life, like they did mine. read more

I've had lash extensions so many times and so many places, and even with talented/experienced techs, my weak and brittle lashes always end up falling out along with the extensions. Vida understood my concerns and not only did she do a beautiful job with my set, but I experienced zero breakage or sparse-ness in my natural lashes afterwards. She was so sweet and gentle, and really took the time to discuss what I wanted and give me advice about how to care for my natural lashes. I loved my extensions and cannot recommend her enough! read more

I've been to probably 4 or 5 other lash places in the DC area and let me tell you, my best experience by far has been with Vida. As other reviewers have said, she is very professional and knowledgeable about proper lash care. I've been getting lash extensions for nearly 3 years, and apparently this entire time I was getting extensions that were too thick for my natural lash, which explains why I had so many lashes break off or get tangled. Vida took the time to explain this to me and to tell me about how I can take care of my lashes to prevent further damage. When she did my lashes, she used a thinner extension but still was able to give me the full volume look that I like, and my eyes feel noticeably more comfortable this time around. All in all, I had a great experience with Vida and would recommend to anyone considering lash extensions in the DC area - you'll be in great hands. read more

First time getting lashes, I researched far and wide, before choosing Vida. She took her time to explain the process, understand the look I was going for, and cater the lashes to my facial and eye shape(s). She also informed me on how to take care for the lash extensions, as well as, treating my natural lash. Exceptional product and service! read more
