What Are Volume Lash Extensions?

Volume lash extensions are a type of eyelash extension procedure that involves attaching multiple lash extensions to a single natural eyelash. Unlike traditional individual lash extensions, where there’s only one false lash per natural lash, volume lash extensions create a fan-like effect. This technique results in a more dramatic and full look while still appearing natural.

  • Time-Saving: They eliminate the need for daily mascara applications, streamlining your makeup routine.

Volume Lash Extension Aftercare

  • Avoid Oil-Based Products: Oil-based makeup removers and skincare products can weaken the lash bond.
  • Gentle Cleansing: Cleanse your lashes with a mild, oil-free cleanser.
  • Brush Regularly: Use a clean spoolie brush to keep your lashes neat.

When Is It Time for Volume Lashes Refill?

Lash refill is essential for maintaining the allure of your volume lash extensions. These extensions, attached to your natural lashes, follow their growth cycle and eventually fall off. The full cycle lasts 6-8 weeks, but not all your lashes are at the same stage. Approximately 40% of your natural lashes will shed in 3 weeks, taking the extensions with them. That’s where lash refill comes in! Most lash extension technicians recommend getting lash fills every 2-3 weeks, although you can sometimes wait up to 4 weeks depending on retention and aftercare.
