Which set of lash extensions is right for me? Classic, flat, hybrid, volume lashes | Prép Beauty Parlour |

By | Prép Beauty Parlour

Thinking about getting lash extensions? Save time in the mornings and achieve an effortless mascara look or a dramatic volume look with no hassle… but which set is right for you? From classic, royal, mixed, to volume sets- the terminology can get confusing… there is loads of flexibility in different looks you can achieve with each set! Keep reading to find out which set is right for you.

Classic lashes 

Classic eyelash extensions are one of our most popular sets. The most natural of the lash extensions, you can achieve a cute and light look using classics. Classic lashes a “1:1 ratio” meaning that one lash extension is applied per one natural lash… so it doubles the amount of lashes you currently have. For example, if you currently have 50 natural lashes, after a classic set of lashes you will have 100. With that being said, since one extension is applied per one natural lash, how full a classic set will look depends on your current lashes!

Better yet! Within each set of lashes, comes lots of flexibility with different shapes and lengths.  your lash technician will consult with you to create the shape and length you love. Classic lashes are perfect for ladies looking for a more natural or medium effect look.

Royal (flat) lashes

Royal or “flat” lashes are similar to classic lashes- they also have a 1:1 ratio. The difference, is the the shape of the royal lash is flat or concave. Because of the shape, a royal set of lashes will give the illusion that your lashes have more volume, without adding on the extra weight.

Royal lashes are perfect for ladies who would like a bit more volume than a classic set of lash extensions, but not quite wanting a hybrid or full volume set.

Classic x Volume Mixed sets (Hybrid lashes)

The next “level-up” in terms of volume are mixed or hybrid lash extensions. These lashes are a mix between 3-D and 1:1 lashes. The mix between classic and volume lashes leave you with a fuller, more glamorous look.

Mixed or hybrid sets are perfect for those who want more volume than a classic or royal set could give them, but aren’t quite ready for a full volume!

 

Volume lashes

Volume lashes! Fans vary between 3-D to 6-D… leaving you with full lashes. Volume lashes create a full look, but are also very lightweight- leaving you with a soft and fluffy result.

We love all these sets! From soft and natural, to long & volume, you can’t go wrong with a set of lashes. ♡

Introducing Royal Lashes, now being offered at Prép Beauty Parlour…  experience a new way to wear eyelash extensions elegantly.

Softer, stronger, and lighter than conventional lashes, Royal Lashes allow the appearance of a voluminous look brought on by popular lash style Russian Volume, yet it carries the same weightless and delicacy of our Classic lashes.

Conventional Classic lashes are done by applying one synthetic mink lash to one natural lash. Often giving a very natural effect. For those wanting a more extravagant set, Prép Beauty Parlour also offers Russian Volume sets. Russian Volume lashes can have up to 5 lashes attached to each natural lash and can create a glamorously dramatic look. Royal lashes are the perfect in- between option for clients wanting a mix of the two styles.

Royal Lashes are made with a specific concave edges, giving them an ellipse shape. The shape of the concave surface allows the Royal Lash to enables it’s ability to embrace the natural lash. Due to the natural thickness of the flat lashes, the lashes will create the appearance of 0.20 mm lashes when only the 0.15 mm lashes are applied. With an increased bonding area as compared to conventional lashes, lash adhesive can easily settle in, embracing the natural lash, guaranteeing an smooth application and ensuring it’s security. With the specific shape, Royal Lashes prevent common twisting of the lash, guaranteeing the life length of extensions.

The increased surface area of the royal lash are ideal for Prép ladies with very straight, weak, and thin natural lashes, but are wanting a more dramatic curl. This is a fabulous alternative for those who worry about the thickness causing a concern about the weight. Royal Lashes are weightless on the bottom, allowing them to easily adhere on even the thinnest of natural lashes.
