Face it, when it comes to the best lashes in the business, you can not beat Kim Kardashian. It may not come as a surprise to you that anyone wanting to achieve lashes like Kim has will probably need to begin a faithful volume lash extensions regimen, but do you know the real scoop behind the lash extension procedure? This blog will divulge a few lash related secrets and prepare you to wow with your own luxurious lashes.

Volume Lash Extensions Are Not the Same as Fake Eyelashes, Surprised yet? Fake eyelashes must be glued to the eyelid, either in strips or clusters. By contrast, lash extensions are attached to your own lashes with a non-toxic glue – neither the lashes nor the glue are meant to make contact with the skin of your eyelid. This prevents irritation, although South Bay Wax & Lash takes additional care to avoid glues with formaldehydes.

In addition, lash extensions do not present the same risks to your natural eyelashes as fake lash strips. Extensions are safe and do not cause your natural lashes to fall out early. What’s more, they are surprisingly light and do not weigh your natural lashes down.

Several Application Options

Talk about 3-D lashes: since volume lash extensions are thinner and lighter than traditional lash extensions, they can be applied in various ways. Your eyelash stylist can place as few as one and as many as six separate extensions onto each eyelash, resulting in a range of styles referred to as 1D, 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D and 6D lashes.

Volume Lash Extensions Are Exclusive

During your eyelash extension appointment, your eyelash stylist will evaluate your lashes to determine if you are a candidate for volume lash extensions. You must have a good amount of strong, healthy lashes in order to achieve volume lashes. This is one reason finding an eyelash stylist with dedicated training in volume lashes is so important – he or she will only perform looks that will suit your lash type.

Your eyelash stylist should be a licensed esthetician, preferably with training in volume lashes as well as in the specific type of lashes they apply. At South Bay Wax & Lash, you can count on a licensed professional that will spend time with you before your appointment in order to determine the best way to achieve the volume lashes you want. Your ability to achieve the Kim K look may be limited by your existing lashes, but you can rest assured that we can help you achieve the wow factor you deserve.
