GLAMOROUS SET OF CLASSIC LASHES - (100 extensions per eye)

Eyelash extensions can make your eyes appear bigger and more captivating. If you’re new to the world of eyelash extensions, it might be challenging to know where to begin when selecting the appropriate type and understanding the differences between classic individual eyelash extensions and other options, such as volume lashes and hybrid lashes. This article will equip you with the knowledge you need about classic eyelash extensions to make the best possible decision.

MEET CLASSIC LASHES

Classic eyelash extensions, , are applied to natural eyelashes at a 1:1 ratio—one extension to one natural eyelash. They are the original and traditional lash extension method, setting the standard for other techniques like volume and hybrid lashes. Classic extensions typically have a thickness of 0.15 mm, but they can also be thicker or thinner, depending on the natural lash.

THE CLASSIC LASHES APPLICATION

In the classic lash application process, one extension is attached to a single natural eyelash. The natural lash is analyzed to choose the most appropriate extension. The ideal classic extension should match the thickness of the natural eyelash and extend its length by up to 3mm. Extensions that are too thick or long can cause damage.

FACTORS TO CONSIDER BEFORE GETTING CLASSIC LASHES

Classic eyelash extensions are popular because they offer a more natural appearance. These extensions don’t add volume to your natural lashes, but they can enhance your look in other ways. When deciding whether to get classic eyelash extensions, consider the following factors:

  • Satisfaction with your natural lash quantity
  • No visible gaps in your lash line
  • Desire for the appearance of a few coats of mascara
  • Preference for a natural outcome with added length and a flattering curl style

Classic lashes may not be the best choice if you have sparse or uneven eyelashes, as they will only enhance what you already have and won’t add volume or hide imperfections. In such cases, volume lashes or hybrid lashes might be a better option.

CARING FOR CLASSIC LASHES

Classic lashes’ maintenance is similar to that of volume and hybrid lashes. However, the main difference is experienced when extensions shed. Eyelashes naturally shed daily, and the loss of a classic lash may be less noticeable. To keep your lashes looking their best, consider scheduling regular appointments for services like lash lifts and eyebrow shaping.

Various lash enhancements, such as lash lifts and lash tints, can help achieve a similar look. These options can help you look your best for various occasions. Visit the lookbook to explore different styles and find inspiration for your next appointment.

  • Lash Lift: Lash lifts often yield results comparable to classic lash extensions on naturally long and thick lashes. However, extensions are the better choice if you want a specific style like a cat-eye because natural lashes are all the same length.
  • Lash Tint: Lash tints add color to lashes but won’t lengthen or curl your natural lashes—extensions or artificial lashes are needed for that.
  • Hybrid & Volume Extensions: Hybrid and volume lash extensions provide a fluffy appearance not commonly achieved with classic lashes. These extensions create a stunning look that many people can’t achieve with just their natural lashes.
