Eyelash lengthening with serum or 3D eyelashes - Calculate Now

Eyelash extensions have become a very popular trend lately. You wake up every morning and your eyelashes are sitting perfectly! Unfortunately, there are a lot of differences in the types of eyelashes that we would like to explain here.

Each eyelash extension targets each individual eyelash. And if the lash is too heavy, it can damage the natural lash, which can lead to damage to the actual lashes or eyes. So knowing the different types of lashes is a good start. There are different curls, lengths, widths, styles and materials that eyelash extensions are made from.

There are J, B, C, CC, D, L and L+ types. J Curl is the most natural, it starts straight and has a slight curve to the top of the lash. These lashes are meant to provide length rather than curl. B Curl is slightly curlier than J, and it appears that the client has recently used an eyelash curler. C-Curl is a more flaring lash and makes the client's eyes look open and awake. CC-Curl is very similar to C-Curl, just a little more curled, while still emphasizing the effect of opening the eyes. D-Curl is ideal for clients with naturally curled lashes and is the most curled lash commonly offered. L curl lashes are for clients with naturally straight or downward lashes who still want volume and length. L+ curl is similar to L curl, but more curly.

Now we can discuss lengths and widths. Average lengths vary from 6mm to 16mm, but keep in mind how strong the client's natural lashes are when choosing a length. If the eyelash extensions are too long, it puts unnecessary stress on the base of the natural lashes and this can cause the lashes to fall out. Widths vary from .05mm to .25mm. Depending on how strong your client's lashes are, you would choose a width that matches theirs as closely as possible to avoid unnecessary weight or tension.

Next are the different styles that lash artists use to highlight the client's eyes. There are natural lashes that start short in the inner corner and spread to the outer corners of the eyes. There are doll lashes, which are thick and curled, from the inner corner to the outer corner. Then there are cat lashes, which are soft and taper outward toward the outer corner of the eye. Last but not least are flirty lashes that have a romantic, sensual look. Then there are the classics and the different sized lashes that can be designed according to the customer's preference.

Now let's move on to the different materials that the eyelash artists work in. One option is the mink eyelashes, which come from the Siberian mink. These are eyelashes made from real hair. Next are faux minks, which look surprisingly realistic and are usually not as expensive as the real ones. And depending on the quality, these can be mistaken for real mink eyelashes.

Sable lashes are soft, thin WIMPERS taken from the sable animal native to Russia. These give a soft, classic look to the client's eyes. Eyelash extensions are a great alternative for those who are not interested in spending a lot of money on taking care of their eyelashes to look good, and they are also a wonderful alternative for those who want to avoid animal products. Finally, there are the synthetic acrylic eyelashes. These lashes are very inexpensive.

When you go to an eyelash studio, you need to be aware of the prices and the practices used. A good, professional set of eyelash extensions should cost around 80 EUR. And if possible, avoid having an eyelash artist put cluster lashes on your single lash. Cluster lashes are multiple lashes that are glued together to form a flair. And when these are placed on the lashes, they are so heavy that they often irritate the eyes or worse, pull the lashes out. So choose your beauty salon wisely and pay attention to the products used!
