Lash set

Types of lash sets

There are different kinds of lash sets. Each type is designed to achieve a specific look. Some of these types include the following:

• Volume lash sets

  Volume lash sets are designed to add fullness and drama to the lash line. They involve the application of multiple lightweight extensions to each natural lash, fanning them out. The lashes in a volume lash extension kit are typically fluffy, thick, and of varying lengths. This helps to achieve a more voluminous and textured look. These sets are ideal for those who desire a glamorously full lash line.

• Classic lash sets

  Classic lash sets are all about length and definition. In this technique, a single extension is added to each natural lash. This creates a more natural look compared to volume lashes. The classic lash set kit is perfect for lengthening and defining the eye. They are an excellent choice for those who want to enhance their lashes' natural beauty. This type of lash set is also more affordable and requires less maintenance.

• Hybrid lash sets

  Hybrid lash sets combine classic and volume lash techniques. They use both single and multi-extended applications to create a more textured and natural look. The hybrid lash set kit offers the best of both worlds. They provide the length and volume that classic and hybrid lash sets offer. This set is ideal for those who want a balanced and versatile lash look.

• Mega volume lash sets

  The mega volume lash set takes the volume lash look to the next level. They use even more lightweight extensions fanned out and applied to each natural lash. The lashes are thicker and bolder. This set is for those who want an ultra-glamorous and dramatic lash look.

• Remedy lash sets

  Remedy lash sets, also known as refill lash sets, are designed to fill in the gaps where some extensions may have fallen out. They use fewer lashes than other sets and require less time to apply. Remedy lash sets are for clients already familiar with other lash sets and have had them applied before.

How to choose lash sets

Wholesale buyers should consider some factors before buying lash extension kits. These factors include the type of lashes, quantity, kit contents, quality, and price.

• Type of lash extensions

  Each lash extension set contains different kinds of lash extensions. They may be mink, silk, synthetic, or volume lashes. Mink lashes have a soft, natural look. They are lightweight and suitable for people who want a natural look. Silk lashes are thicker than mink lashes. They give a more dramatic look. Silk lashes are ideal for customers who want to upgrade their look. Volume lash extensions are made in a fan shape. They help to create a full and fluffy lash look.

• Quantity

  Consider the number of lash trays in each kit. Some kits have only one tray, while others have many trays. Kits with many trays can provide more variety for technicians to work with. They allow buyers to pick different types of lashes in smaller quantities to cater to diverse needs. Kits with many trays may be more expensive, so buyers should balance the amount and variety they want.

• Kit contents

  Besides the trays of lash extensions, other items are in most kits. These items include applicators, removers, tweezers, brushes, and gels. Some kits also have primer and under-eye pads. The extra items can make the lash extension application process easier and more efficient. They are a good choice for buyers who want to get everything in one kit.

• Quality

  The quality of the lashes in the kit is an important factor to consider. Lashes made from high-quality materials last longer and look better on the eye. Look for lashes made from soft, silky materials. They look more natural and are more comfortable to wear. Also, check the adhesive quality in the kit. It should have a strong hold and be safe for the eye.

• Price

  The price of lash extension sets varies depending on the content and quality. Consider kits that provide great value. Look for kits that add extra items aside from the lash trays. They may be more expensive, but they offer everything needed for the lash application process. Consider the needs of the target customers and choose kits that meet those needs.

How to use, install & product safety

How to use

Applying false lashes can enhance one’s look. Here’s how to use them:

• Prepare the lashes:

  Trim the false lash to fit the eye. Many premade ones already fit. Hold the lash set with tweezers or one's fingers, and check the length against the eye. Trim from the outside edge if needed. The lash band should match the eye's width for a natural look.

• Shape the lashes:

  Get the false lash to curve like the natural ones. Curve it gently by hand a few times to match the eye shape. A well-shaped lash will sit better and look more natural on the eyelid.

• Apply adhesive:

  It is important to apply the right amount of adhesive. Squeeze a thin line of adhesive onto the false lash band. Wait 30 seconds until it gets tacky. This ensures the lashes stick to the eyelid for a long time.

• Put them on:

  Use tweezers or fingers to place the false lash. Position it just above the natural lash line, as close as possible. Do this for both lashes. Once in place, gently squeeze the false lash and natural ones together to bond them. Hold each one for a few seconds to ensure it stays on.

• Blend them in:

  The final step is to blend the false lashes with the natural ones. Use a lash curler to curl them together. Then, apply a coat of mascara to both sets of lashes. This creates a fuller look that makes it harder to tell the false ones are there.

Product Safety

When using lash extensions, one must consider the following safety measures:

• Check the Ingredients:

  Know the adhesive and extension materials. Some adhesives contain formaldehyde, which can harden and cause irritation. Find out if the materials used to make the lashes are synthetic, mink, silk, or something else. Research the products used to find out if they will irritate the eyes.

• Consider Eye Health:

  If one has allergy or sensitivity issues, talk to a professional. Consult an eye care expert to get a professional opinion. Let them know about any issues so they can help determine what is best.

• Verify the Technician:

  Ensure the person applying the lashes is trained. Ask about their training and certifications. Get information on their experience. Find out if they follow safety procedures.

• Inquire about the Products:

  Ask the technician what products they use. Get details on the adhesive and lashes. Request product information sheets so one can review the ingredients.

• Understand the Application Process:

  Ask about how the lashes will be attached. Ensure no adhesive gets into the eyes. Make sure the technician will keep a close distance between the lashes and the eyes.

• Be Aware of Potential Risks:

  Know the possible risks of lash extensions. Understand the signs of irritation or infection. Learn how to care for the lashes to avoid problems.

• Consider Removal:

  Think about how the lashes will be taken off. Ask the technician how they will remove them. Make sure the adhesive is not hard to remove.

Functions, features and design of lash sets

These lash sets have many features and functions that help someone achieve their desired look. The design of the lashes and the glue makes the following possible:

• Length & volume

  The primary function of the extension is to create a fuller and longer lash line. Many sets have different lengths and volumes to cater to different preferences and needs. Those who need a more dramatic look can opt for longer, thicker lashes.

• Natural look

  Some lash extensions make a fake and unnatural look. When the lashes are clumped together, they can create an unnatural appearance. The natural lashes look fuller without looking fake when using individual lash sets. They are often used for brides who want to look natural yet have fuller lashes.

• Customization

  Lash sets can be customized according to the client's needs and requirements. The lash technician can pick from different lengths, volumes, and lash materials to create the desired look. The glue is also applied in a way that suits the client's needs.

• Durable and safe materials

  Lash extensions are made from safe materials. The adhesive used to attach the lashes is also made from safe materials. It is designed to last for months without causing any damage to the eye or skin area. The lashes themselves are made from quality materials that are safe to use near the eye area.

• Low maintenance

  Extensions are low-maintenance beauty treatments that don't require much upkeep. Most technicians will give clients a list of things they should avoid for the first 24 to 48 hours. After that, they don't have to do much to their lashes. They shouldn't be brushed, and they shouldn't be cleaned with oil-based products. Lash serums can be used if the lashes need to be hydrated.

• Waterproof

  Some lash sets are waterproof, so they won't budge when the user is sweating or swimming. They won't need waterproof mascara to make them look full.

• Time-saving

  Using lash extensions saves time that would otherwise be spent on applying false lashes. They eliminate the need to apply mascara every morning. Lash technicians can create a more dramatic look that saves time in the morning. Customers don't need to book an appointment every morning; once the extensions are applied, they can last for months.

Q&A

Q1: How many sets of lashes should a person have?

A1. There is no strict rule about how many lash sets someone should own. It depends on personal preference and the kind of look they want. If they love experimenting with different styles, it is good to have many so they can choose from natural everyday ones to dramatic ones for special occasions. The key is having options that suit different moods, outfits, and events. After all, no one style of lash extension is perfect for every occasion.

Q2: Can users reuse their lash sets?

A2: Many types of lash sets can be gently cleaned and saved for future use. Those made of silk or mink fur are often reusable several times if handled carefully. On the other hand, disposable lashes made of synthetic materials are meant to be used only once and cannot be reused.

Q3: How to make a lash set last longer?

A3: To make a lash set last longer, avoid oil-based makeup removers and cleansers because they will cause the glue to break down. Do not use mascara on the lash extensions, as it will cause them to become clumpy and difficult to brush out. Avoid heat and humidity, like saunas, steam rooms, and curling irons, which can damage the lashes. Brush the lashes daily with a spoolie brush to keep them separated and looking fresh.

Q4: What is the difference between lash extensions and false lashes?

A4: Lash extensions are applied to each individual natural lash and cannot be removed at home, whereas fake lashes come in strips and can be taken off whenever. Extensions give a more natural look and last several weeks, while false lashes allow for more dramatic changes that can be removed and reattached as needed. Extensions require touch-up appointments, while false lashes can be applied at home. The main difference is permanence versus temporary wear.
