The Beginner's Guide to Eyelash Extension



Volume lashes are lighter, fluffier and give the client a fuller look. This technique is prefect for clients who don't have a lot of lashes, have sparse lashes, bald spots or just want a more dramatic look without having to use a thicker lash. 

On the other hand, are actually lighter than classic lashes. One 3D volume fan weighs less than one classic lash extension.  Also, a lot less glue is used during the volume technique so you don't feel any weight on your eyes at all. You just see beautiful fluffy lashes.

Mega volume - The lash extensions used in this method are significantly thinner ( Usually a 0.03 diameter lash extension is used)  than the lash extensions used for the classic lash method. 

This is nothing like "cluster" lashes where a chunk of lashes are glued to a bunch of your natural lashes! Cluster lashes are bad for your natural lash and will cause permanent damage. 



After Care

With proper care and fills your eyelashes can last indefinitely.

  • Do not get your eyelashes wet for the first two hours.

  • Do not use a spa, sauna or pool for the first 24 hours. The extensions need that amount of time to properly bond.

  • Avoid pulling or rubbing your eyes.

  • Do not use eyelash curlers with your extensions. With proper application you will not need them.

  • ONLY use oil-free makeup remover. If your eyelashes are tangled or crossed over, use the Spoolie given to you during your appointment to gently brush them straight and put them in place.

  • Proper hygiene is very important. Please keep lashes clean by regular washing with lash shampoo.

  • Use only mascaras that are safe for eyelash extensions, no oil-based or waterproof mascaras. Only apply the mascara to the tips of your lashes.

  • After showering, avoid rubbing lashes, it best to blot them with a towel and let them air dry.

  • You can also dry the lashes by using a hair dryer on the cool setting and blowing them dry from the bottom up. It makes them curlier and fluffy.

  • Use care when applying facial and eye creams to avoid the lash line. Too many oil-based products can break down the adhesive.

  • Touch-up appointments are recommended every two to three weeks to maintain your new eyelash extensions.


* Refill appointments are required every 2-3 weeks. Due to out grown cycled lashes, anything over 4 weeks will need a New Set.
**Please arrive free of any face creams or eye makeup. Avoid any caffeinated beverages right before your service to enjoy a more relaxed experience. Please allow service time to run at least an hour/half to two hours for new sets and around an hour for refills.
