4 Essential Lash Extension Techniques You Need to Know

From Classic to Mega Volume, offers a unique style suited to different preferences. Here, we provide an overview of each technique, the thickness of lashes used, style preferences, and which clients they are best suited for.

1. Classic Lash Extensions

Definition
Classic lash extensions involve attaching one lash extension to each natural lash. This technique enhances length and curl without adding extra volume, giving a naturally polished look.

Lash Thickness Used
Lashes used in the Classic technique are generally 0.10mm to 0.15mm thick, closely resembling natural lashes.

Style Preferences
This style is perfect for clients seeking a subtle, professional, or everyday look. It offers a simple, elegant finish.

Ideal for
Clients with a healthy lash line, as each extension is applied one-to-one, which depends on the natural lashes for a fuller appearance.

2. Hybrid Lash Extensions

Definition
Hybrid lashes combine Classic and Volume techniques, mixing single extensions with small fans of lashes. This blend provides a textured look with slightly more volume than Classic lashes.

Lash Thickness Used
Hybrid sets use a mix of Classic lashes (0.10mm – 0.15mm) and finer Volume lashes (0.03mm – 0.07mm). The smaller fans give a natural but fuller finish.

Style Preferences
Ideal for clients looking for both length and volume but preferring a soft, wispy look. It’s a great option for those who want a noticeable, but still natural, lash enhancement.

Ideal for
Clients with sparse lashes who want added fullness. This technique complements all eye shapes.

3. Volume Lash Extensions

Definition
Volume lashes add more fullness than Hybrid by applying a fan of 2-6 ultra-fine lashes to each natural lash. The result is a soft, fluffy look with luxurious volume.

Lash Thickness Used
Volume lashes use very fine lashes (0.03mm – 0.07mm), allowing multiple lashes to be applied safely to each natural lash. 

Style Preferences
Volume lashes are perfect for clients who desire a more glamorous, yet still soft look, ideal for special occasions or a bold everyday style.

Ideal for
Clients with thinner lashes who need more density. Volume lashes are suitable for various eye shapes, especially those with hooded or downturned eyes.

4. Mega Volume Lash Extensions

Definition
Mega Volume is the most dramatic lash extension option, creating maximum fullness with 6-16 ultra-thin lashes per natural lash. This style provides a bold, dark lash line.

Lash Thickness Used
Mega Volume lashes use the finest extensions fans, from 0.02mm to 0.05mm, to ensure they can be safely applied in large numbers to each natural lash.

Style Preferences
This technique is all about bold impact. It’s ideal for clients who prefer a high-drama look.

Ideal for
Clients with strong natural lashes and a preference for maximum volume. Mega Volume is perfect for those who want a standout lash look.
