The difference between Classic, Volume & Hybrid Lashes

computer image showing the difference between classic, volume and hybrid eyelash extensions.

Classic

A method where 1 lash extension is glued to 1 natural lash. This method is also known as 1 to 1 or 1:1. Classic lashes are perfect for clients who already have a lot of lashes, but want to add more length. Classic lashes look more natural. 

 

Volume 

Multiple lashes are applied to one single natural eyelash individually isolating one natural eyelash at a time using very thin lashes  . If two eyelash extensions are applied to one natural lash it’s described as 2D, if three eyelash extensions are applied to one natural eyelash then it’s described as 3D etc.

 

This method is also known as Russian volume. The lash extensions used in this method are significantly thinner ( Usually a 0.07 diameter or thinner lash extension is used)  than the lash extensions used for the classic lash method. 

 

Volume lashes are lighter, fluffier and give the client a fuller look. Volume lashes are 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. 

HYBRID

(50% Classic/50% Volume) 

Hybrid lashes are a 50/50 mixture of Classic and Volume lashes to create a fuller set for those with thinner natural lashes or for those wanting a denser Classic set.
