Are you dying for long eyelashes? Are mascara, disposable lashes, and that Claire Danes-endorsed serum not enough of a solution? Here's a semi-permanent alternative: eyelash extensions. For $200, a stylist will individually secure eyelash extensions onto each individual eyelash on your body that will remain in place until the eyelash falls off naturally. Seems cheap enough, but when you factor in how often your eyelashes actually fall off and that you must replace said extensions every 2-3 weeks, you'll quickly realize that the price adds up, averaging about $1500 per year for the upkeep. If waking up with perfect eyelashes every day still seems worth it to you, listen up to what Good Morning America had to say about the topic. Apparently "moms love it!" More »

Wait, so there isn't just an endless supply of glossy, ethically-sourced human hair waiting to be made into extensions for Jessica Simpson? Um, no. Although celebs and those they inspire may not choose to think too hard about where their borrowed locks spring from, according to a new BBC documentary, Whose Hair Is It Anyway?, the growing demand for human hair extensions has led to ethically dubious hair-culling, with sources ranging from Russian prisoners to corpses (although hair dealers deny both.)
