About Eyelash Extensions
Allergies and patch tests
Reactions are usually to cyanoacrylate fumes, not the fibre itself. Symptoms include red, puffy or itchy lids, burning around the lash line and watering eyes 2 to 12 hours after application. A patch test places 5 to 10 extensions on the outer corner and is read after 24 to 48 hours before a full set.
Safe removal at home or salon
Professional removal takes 10 to 15 minutes using a cream-based solvent placed on the lashes for 3 to 5 minutes. The extensions slide off without pulling. Never rip extensions off, because this can remove up to 5 natural lashes per eye. Home removal kits work but need 10 extra minutes and careful rinsing.
Main shapes and curls
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.
How long a full set lasts
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.
What usually goes wrong
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.
Aftercare in the first 24 hours
Keep lashes dry for the first 24 hours so the glue can finish polymerising. Avoid steam, saunas, hot showers over 40 degrees, workouts that flood sweat into the eyes and oil-based makeup removers. Do not rub, pull or use a cotton pad on the lash line during this window.
What affects the price
Prices vary by style, technician skill, and location. Classic sets start at the lowest tier, volume costs 40 to 80% more due to longer application time. Hybrid sits in the middle. Specialty adhesive, colored extensions, or mega volume can add 20 to 30% to the final cost. Always confirm refill pricing upfront.
Classic, volume, and hybrid
Classic style attaches one extension to one natural lash. Volume applies 2 to 6 ultra-fine extensions in a fan shape per lash. Hybrid mixes both, usually about 50/50. Volume fans use 0.03 mm to 0.07 mm fibers, and full sets take 90 to 150 minutes depending on the chosen style.
What the appointment looks like
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.
Allergies and patch tests
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.
