Autumn 2022Time to get lashed?

With so many lash options out there it can be confusing to know what each one is and which the best is for you.

Classic Lashes (also known as Individual Lashes) involves applying one individual lash to one natural eyelash. They come in a range of lash lengths so you can choose the look you want and how ‘natural’ you want them to be! Classics can also look amazing on somebody with a lot of lashes.

Who are they good for? – Perfect for those who want a natural lash look day-to-day or who want to look like they have mascara on.

Volume Lashes are a fan of lashes applied to each natural lash. Each fan is created using up to six individual eyelashes. This creates much fuller, fluffier eyelashes. Even though there are six lashes applied they are perfectly safe for the natural lashes. This is because the volume lashes are practically weightless. In fact they are thinner in diameter than a human hair! In comparison, one classic lash is the same weight as a volume fan. This is why you can apply so many to one lash.

Who are they good for? – Perfect for those who want a fuller, more dramatic look.

Hybrid Lashes are a mixture of classic lashes and volume fans. There are a few different styles that can be achieved with this type of lash.

Who are they good for? – Perfect for those who want lashes that look fuller than classic lashes but not quite as dramatic as a full set of volume lashes. They are ideal if you want that wispy eyelash look, or the ‘Kim K’ spiky look that is bang on trend at the moment.

Mega Volume Lashes are the biggest, most dramatic lashes. They involve applying a fan of 10 lashes to each lash. They give a super full, thick and dark look.

Who are they good for? – If you want the thickest, darkest lash look then these are for you!
