 Eyelash Extensions

Classic Extensions

Classic lashes are the most common type of eyelash extension, used for more traditional and natural lash looks. 

It’s great for pulling off a simple and unpretentious appearance, especially if you don’t want to look flashy. 

The two most important characteristics that differentiate classic lashes from the other techniques are: 

#1 Ratio: Classic eyelash extensions are applied at the ratio of 1:1. 
That means one eyelash extension is added per natural lash one after another to fill the lash line. 

Hybrid Extensions

One of the newest lash treatments available today is the hybrid style. In this, classic and volume styles of lashes fuse into one to create a hybrid variety that customizes your eye even better than either style. 
Hybrid lashes can look naturally gorgeous when done correctly by an experienced lash tech. They’re also called mixed set lashes in some salons. 

The two most important characteristics that differentiate hybrid lashes from the other techniques are: 
Typically, eyelash techs go for 50-50 or 70% volume and 30% classic in a hybrid set. 

Volume Eyelash Extensions  

One step above classic lashes with fluff and volume, volume lashes are sophisticated while guaranteeing dramatic looks to the wearer. 

It came out as Russian Volume after classic lashes. The style gives a young and youthful appearance to your eyes. 

Volume eyelash extensions use more than one extension per natural lash in what is called a “volume fan”. Depending on the fans used, it could be a volume fan or a mega volume fan. 

Typically, a volume lash uses 2 to 5 extensions per fan while a mega volume fan uses 6 to 16 artificial lashes.

Mega Volume Extensions
The difference between mega volume lashes and volume lashes is how many false lashes are used to create the fan and the diameter of these false lashes. A volume fan uses 2 to 5 extensions with a diameter of 0.05 to 0.07 mm while a mega volume fan uses 6 to 16 extensions with a diameter of 0.03 to 0.05 mm.
