Curl types are labeled B, C, D, and L. B is a soft lift, C is a medium curve, D is a dramatic curve, and L is straight at the base with a sharp upward tip. Lengths go from 8 mm to 14 mm, and thicknesses range from 0.05 mm to 0.20 mm. Thinner diameters look softer but hold less weight.
A full classic set takes 90 to 120 minutes, volume takes 120 to 180 minutes, and a refill takes 45 to 75 minutes. You lie down with closed eyes while the technician isolates each natural lash with tweezers, dips the extension in glue and places it. Under-eye gel pads or tape hold the lower lashes down throughout.
Keep lashes dry for 12 to 24 hours after application. Avoid steam, saunas, and workouts that cause heavy sweating. Do not rub the eyes or sleep face-down for the first 2 nights. After that, gentle cleansing with an oil-free lash shampoo once a day keeps the adhesive bond strong.
Eyelash extensions are synthetic, silk, or mink fibers glued one by one onto each natural lash. A full set usually has 80 to 120 extensions per eye, while a partial set has 40 to 80. Each extension is applied with a small amount of cyanoacrylate-based adhesive, about 1 mm from the eyelid skin.
A full set normally lasts 4 to 6 weeks, but that is the natural lash growth cycle, not the lifespan of each extension. Most clients lose 2 to 5 extensions per day per eye. A refill every 2 to 3 weeks keeps the set looking full, because grown-out lashes carry the extension out as they shed.
A patch test places 5 to 10 extensions on the outer corner of one eye, kept on for 24 to 48 hours. Any redness, itching, or swelling means the adhesive is not safe to use. About 1 to 3% of clients react to standard cyanoacrylate glue, and a hypoallergenic version costs about 20% more.
Professional removal uses a gel or cream remover with 10 to 15 minutes of contact time, then the extensions slide off with a microbrush. At home, an oil-based balm left for 20 minutes can loosen bonds on classic sets, but never pull or force an extension out, as this can take the natural lash with it.
Classic sets attach one extension per natural lash. Volume sets use handmade fans of 2 to 6 ultra-thin extensions per natural lash for a fluffy finish. Hybrid sets mix single extensions and handmade fans across the eye to create a textured, slightly wispy result that balances drama and softness.
Poor isolation causes extensions to stick to two lashes at once, leading to premature fallout. Heavy diameters on weak natural lashes cause traction alopecia over 6 to 12 months. Uncured glue fumes can irritate eyes for 24 hours. An allergic reaction to adhesive shows as red, puffy eyelids within 24 to 48 hours.
Brush gently once a day with a clean spoolie from middle to tip, never root to tip, to avoid twisting extensions off. Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase and avoid face-down sleeping, which bends extensions. Clean every 2 to 3 days with a lash-safe foam cleanser, not micellar water or facial soap.
