LASH EXTENSIONS CLASSIC HYBRID LASH SET — Brows and Beauty Lounge

WITH SO MANY LASH EXTENSION SETS AND STYLES, WHAT IS THE RIGHT SET OR STYLE FOR YOU? WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?

A LASH SET - CHOOSING THE RIGHT SET COMES DOWN TO HOW FULL AND LONG YOUR NATURAL LASHES ARE.

A PERSON WITH NATURALLY FULL LASHES CAN DO SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS A CLASSIC LASH SET. CLASSIC SETS ARE DONE WITH ONE SYNTHETIC LASH EXTENSION OVER A NATURAL LASH. IT GIVES YOU LENGTH AND, DEPENDING ON THE LENGTH OF YOUR NATURAL LASHES, THE LONGER YOU CAN GO ON THE LENGTH OF YOUR CLASSIC LASH SET. A SAFE LENGTH I WOULD RECOMMEND IS 2-3MM LONGER THAN YOUR NATURAL LASHES TO KEEP YOUR LASHES HEALTHY.

FOR A PERSON WITH LESS NATURALLY DENSE LASHES, I WOULD RECOMMEND A HYBRID SET AS IT IS 1 SYNTHETIC LASH PLUS A SMALL FAN THAT HAS 3-5 SYNTHETIC LASHES ON ONE REAL LASH. HYBRID SETS ARE MORE WISPY; THEY STILL LOOK NATURAL BUT ARE FULLER. THIS IS WHY I LOVE A HYBRID SET AS IT GIVES YOU MORE ROOM TO BE CREATIVE AND FILL IN SPACES IF YOUR LASHES ARE NOT FULL AND DENSE.

LET'S SAY YOU ARE A DRAMA QUEEN AND WANT A FULL LASH SET. I WOULD SAY GO FOR THE VOLUME SET, BUT YOU WOULD ALSO NEED HEALTHY LASHES AS EACH NATURAL LASH GETS A SMALL FAN, AND THE FAN CAN HAVE 3-7 LASHES ON ONE NATURAL LASH. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT THE MORE LASHES A FAN HAS, THE HEAVIER IT IS FOR YOUR NATURAL LASH. EVEN THOUGH THE FANS ARE THINNER AND MADE FOR BEING ON ONE NATURAL LASH, IT STILL NEEDS A GOOD LASH TO SIT ON.

WHAT ARE THE LASH STYLES? I GET CONFUSED WITH CAT EYE AND DOLL EYE AND SO MANY MORE DIFFERENT STYLES.

THE LASH STYLE HAS A LOT TO DO WITH YOUR EYE SHAPE. IT IS LIKE CONTOURING YOUR EYES TO THE BEST SHAPE TO MAKE YOUR NATURAL EYE MORE APPEALING. A CAT EYE IS GOOD FOR ROUND EYES AS IT WOULD MAKE THEM LOOK LONGER INSTEAD OF ROUND. A DOLL EYE IS BEST FOR SMALLER EYES AS IT OPENS UP YOUR EYES, MAKING THEM LOOK BIGGER BECAUSE THE LENGTH IS IN THE MIDDLE. THERE ARE SO MANY MORE NEW STYLES WE OFFER, BUT JUST SO YOU CAN GET AN IDEA.

HOW LONG CAN I GO FOR MY LASH EXTENSION?

I ALWAYS SUGGEST 3 MILLIMETRES LONGER THAN THE NATURAL LASH AS ANYTHING HEAVIER CAN DAMAGE YOUR NATURAL LASHES. YOU CAN DEFINITELY GO LONGER, BUT I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND IT.

DO LASH EXTENSIONS DAMAGE YOUR NATURAL LASHES?

NO, IF YOU ARE DOING THEM WITH A PROFESSIONAL, THEY SHOULD NOT DAMAGE YOUR LASHES AS WELL AS TAKING CARE OF THEM. THE MOST IMPORTANT TIP IN CARE IS REMOVING THEM AFTER 2-3 WEEKS OR GETTING A REFILL. IF YOU LET THEM OUTGROW TOO MUCH, THE SYNTHETIC LASH PULLS ON THE NATURAL LASH IF IT’S TOO LONG AND OUTGROWN. ONCE THEY START OUTGROWING, THEY START BOTHERING YOU, AND NATURALLY, YOU WILL BE RUBBING YOUR EYES, AND THAT'S WHEN YOU START PULLING YOUR NATURAL LASH. SO TAKE THEM OFF AFTER 2-3 WEEKS AS THAT IS WHEN OUR LASHES START TO OUTGROW. YOU SHOULD REMEMBER WE LOSE 1-2 LASHES EVERY DAY, AND ALL THE OUTGROWN LASHES NEED TO BE REPLACED EVERY 2-3 WEEKS.

WHY 2-3 WEEKS? EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT GROWING PATTERNS JUST LIKE HAIR. THIS IS WHY WE GIVE YOU AN ESTIMATE AMOUNT AS EVERYONE'S LASH CYCLE IS DIFFERENT.

LAST TIP! CHOOSE THE RIGHT PROFESSIONAL ARTIST WHO CAN GUIDE YOU AND RECOMMEND YOU A STYLE. RULES CAN BE BROKEN, BUT ONLY ON CERTAIN OCCASIONS, LIKE IT WOULD BE REALLY BAD IF I DID A CAT EYE ON AN OLDER PERSON AS IT WOULD DRAG THEIR EYES DOWN INSTEAD OF LIFTING THEM. A GOOD LASH ARTIST WILL GIVE YOU THE BEST SOLUTION FOR YOUR LASHES, THE BEST ADVICE AS WELL TO NOT RUIN YOUR LASHES, AS LONG AS YOU ACTUALLY HEAR THE ADVICE GIVEN.

WHEN A LASH ARTIST SAYS IT IS A LUXURY SERVICE, IT IS BECAUSE IT IS A HIGH-MAINTENANCE SERVICE AS IT REQUIRES FILL-INS EVERY 2-3 WEEKS TO KEEP YOUR LASHES HEALTHY. BUT AS WELL, IT SAVES YOU TIME IN YOUR MORNING ROUTINE AS ONCE YOU HAVE THE FEELING OF YOUR LASHES DONE, YOU HONESTLY DON’T NEED MAKEUP.

IT REALLY GIVES YOU A MAKEUP LOOK 24/7. I'M NOT GOING TO LIE, THEY DO GET ADDICTIVE, BUT THE WAY IT CAN MAKE YOU FEEL, THEY ARE DEFINITELY WORTH A TRY.
