If you’re staying in Orbi City and want fresh, camera-ready lashes without losing a beach day, you’re in the right place. I’m an independent lash artist in Batumi with 7+ years of experience, and I work a lot with travelers, expats, and digital nomads who need clean work, flexible scheduling, and honest prices in GEL. Here’s how to book lash extensions from Orbi City, what to expect in our seaside climate, and how to choose the best set for your trip photos and the Black Sea breeze.
Where to get lash extensions when you’re based in Orbi City
Orbi City towers sit along Batumi’s New Boulevard, close to the sea and the promenade. Most lash studios and independent masters are spread between New Boulevard and the city center, so getting to an appointment is simple: use Bolt or Yandex Go, and you’ll usually arrive within 10–20 minutes depending on traffic and season. During July–August evenings, add a little buffer for sunset crowds on the boulevard.
In Batumi, you’ll find two main options:
- Independent masters working in private studios (quiet, one-on-one attention, personalized timing).
- Beauty studios with multiple technicians (more seats, but sometimes less flexible for tourist timing).
What to look for before you book:
- Clear, recent portfolio with close-up photos from multiple angles. You can check mine here: see my portfolio.
- Transparent GEL prices listed publicly. My current menu is here: current lash extension prices.
- Hygiene and isolation technique: clean tools, disposable consumables, and correctly isolated fans (no stickies).
- Timing that fits your tourist schedule: early morning or later evening slots are especially helpful in summer heat.
My studio setup for travelers and expats
I work privately, one client at a time, in a quiet studio in Batumi. I share the exact pin after we confirm by WhatsApp, but for planning: it’s typically a 10–15 minute ride from Orbi City by Bolt outside peak hours. I keep flexible slots for travelers - especially same-day or next-morning appointments when possible - so you don’t have to plan your whole trip around lashes.
Average timing:
- Classic 1:1: about 1.5–2 hours
- Soft 2D/2.5D volume: about 2 hours
- 3D/mega volume: about 2–2.5 hours
- LED lash lift (no extensions): about 60–75 minutes
If you’re landing in the evening or checking out in the morning, message me and I’ll do my best to fit you in. Communication is fast and simple; I use WhatsApp for booking and quick updates.
Prices in Batumi (and my own GEL menu)
Batumi prices vary with artist experience and the complexity of the set. You’ll see everything from budget promos to high-end volume work. My goal is fair pricing with clean, consistent results:
- Classic 1:1 from 70 GEL
- 2D volume from 95 GEL
- 3D to mega volume from 110–130 GEL
- LED lash lift from 80 GEL
For full details, timing, and add-ons, check my updated list here: current lash extension prices. If you’re staying longer (one to two months), we can plan refills to keep your set fresh without starting from zero.
Beach city reality: humidity, heat, and how to keep retention
The Black Sea climate is beautiful - and humid. Humidity and heat speed up adhesive behavior, which is why proper prep, isolation, and aftercare matter even more in Batumi. Here’s what I recommend to my seaside clients:
- First 12–24 hours: avoid heavy steam, hot saunas, and deliberate splashing. A quick shower is fine; just don’t blast lashes with hot water or rub them.
- Wash daily with a lash-safe cleanser. Salt, sweat, and sunscreen build-up will weaken retention if you don’t cleanse.
- Pat dry and brush through gently. Avoid cotton pads that snag.
- If you’re spending full days at the beach, a lightweight lash sealant can help guard against moisture and sunscreen film.
- Wear sunglasses on windy days along the boulevard to protect from sand and salt spray.

Same-day booking from Orbi City: the quick playbook
If you decide this morning that you want lashes tonight, here’s how to do it without wasting beach time:
- Message me on WhatsApp with your ideal time window and checkout/flight info.
- Send a close-up selfie of your eyes in natural light and tell me your style goals (natural, soft volume, or glam).
- We pick a set and timing. I share the studio pin and a short arrival guide.
- Book a Bolt from Orbi City; plan 10–20 minutes depending on traffic and events.
- Arrive makeup-free on the eye area; skip oily creams that day.
I handle prep to balance for humidity, choose the right curl and diameter for your natural lashes, and map a shape that flatters your eye and face (important for photos and videos on the boulevard and cable car!).
Classic vs 2D/3D for a Batumi trip
Which set should you choose for a seaside holiday, business visit, or digital-nomad month?
- Classic 1:1: clean, mascara-like, very wearable for daily beach walks and meetings. Easiest to maintain and looks great with minimal makeup. Explore my classic 1:1 service details.
- Soft 2D/2.5D: a step up in fullness without going dramatic; perfect for sunset photos on the promenade and dinner nights.
- 3D to mega: bold and glamorous for nightlife, events, or if you love a dense lash line in selfies. Requires a bit more aftercare diligence against salt and sunscreen.
- LED lash lift: if you’re in and out of the water all day and want zero maintenance, a lift keeps your natural lashes curled and photo-ready - no extensions.
How long do lashes last in Batumi?
With proper application and care, most clients enjoy 3–4 weeks before a refill makes sense. If you’re only in Batumi for a week or two, you’ll be set for your entire stay. If you’re here longer, we can plan a refill at the 2–3 week mark to refresh symmetry and volume.
Getting from Orbi City to my studio without stress
Transport is simple: open Bolt, set pick-up to your Orbi City tower entrance, and head to the pin I send after confirmation. Outside peak promenade hours, expect 10–15 minutes; during weekend evenings in high season, allow 15–25 minutes. If you’re squeezing the appointment between a dolphinarium visit and dinner on the Old Boulevard, tell me and I’ll guide you on realistic timing.
If you prefer to walk before or after, the New Boulevard paths are flat and scenic, but keep in mind the summer heat - morning or late evening walks are most comfortable.

What to book if you’re short on time
If you have under two hours total, go for Classic 1:1 or an LED lash lift. Classic gives instant definition without makeup; a lift is ultra low-maintenance for back-to-back tours, boat rides, and the Alphabetic Tower visit. If you have more time and want extra pop for photos, choose 2D. For full-on glam, we’ll plan 3D+ and a little extra buffer.

FAQs
- Can I swim in the Black Sea the same day after extensions?
I recommend avoiding heavy splashing, hot steam, and saunas for the first 12–24 hours. After that, you can swim - just rinse with fresh water afterward, cleanse with a lash-safe foam, pat dry, and brush gently.
- How long does a classic or 2D appointment take if I’m on a tight tourist schedule?
Plan about 1.5–2 hours for Classic and roughly 2 hours for soft 2D. If you’re between check-out and your train/flight, tell me your timing and we’ll schedule a realistic slot.
- Do you do refills if my previous set was done elsewhere?
Yes, if the existing work is healthy (no stickies, proper isolation). Send me clear photos in daylight on WhatsApp. If the previous set is not suitable for a refill, I’ll suggest a safe removal and a fresh application.
- What style works best for beach days and minimal makeup?
Classic 1:1 or soft 2D is perfect for a fresh, clean look without mascara. If you’re in the water daily and want zero maintenance, consider an LED lash lift.
- Where can I see prices and book quickly?
Check the menu here: current lash extension prices. For fast booking or same-day availability, use WhatsApp. If you need directions, my contact page has all details.
