An introduction to Volume Lashes
Volume lashes are the latest trend in eyelash extensions. This technique allows for the creation of lighter, fluffier lashes that are perfect for anyone who wants to achieve a more dramatic look. The secret to this technique is the use of multiple, thin lashes to create a single, thicker lash. This provides a fuller, more voluminous look that is perfect for those who want to make a statement with their lashes.
What are Volume Lashes and How Do They Work?
They are created by carefully placing multiple, thin lashes onto a single, natural lash. This is achieved through the use of a special technique that involves the use of tweezers to carefully place the lashes in a fan-like formation. This creates a fuller, thicker look that is perfect for those who want to make a statement with their lashes.
This technique is also much lighter than traditional eyelash extensions. The use of multiple, thin lashes means that the extensions are not as heavy as traditional lashes, which can be more comfortable for the wearer. The lighter weight also means that the lashes are less likely to cause damage to the natural lashes, making this a more gentle option for those who are worried about the health of their lashes.
The next step would be to decide the style that would best suit you. This is something you will have an opportunity to discuss with your lash tech at the beginning of your appointment.
