Volume Eyelash Extensions - page 2

Eyelash extensions for hand-made Russian volume

Fine, light lashes to make fans by hand, from 2D to mega volume. All trays are VEKI and can be filtered by thickness and curl on this page.

Which thickness is used for Russian volume?

• 0.03 mm: mega volume, fans of 8D and more on healthy natural lashes.
• 0.05 mm: 4D to 6D volume, the most versatile thickness for Russian volume.
• 0.07 mm: 2D to 4D volume and hybrid sets; also for fine natural lashes.
• 0.10 mm: 2D or a light classic effect on weak natural lashes.
• 0.12 mm: a transition between volume and classic, for bolder effects.

The finer the extension, the more lashes the fan can hold without overloading the natural lash. Always match the volume to the strength of each client's lashes.

Which curl to choose?

• B: soft curve, natural effect.
• C: the most used, opens the eye without overdoing it.
• D: strong curve, doll effect.
• M: straight base and marked lift, for downward natural lashes or hooded eyelids.
• L and LC: flat base with lift at the tip, for the Foxy or Eyeliner effect and for straight or downward natural lashes.

Silk or Natural Matte finish

Silk extensions have a glossy finish and a deep black. The Natural Matte line has a matte finish that imitates the natural lash. Both come in 20-row trays, single length or mix.

What you need besides the lashes

• A fast-drying adhesive suited to the humidity of your room.
• Volume tweezers to make and pick up the fan.
• Cleanser, primer and bonder to improve retention.

Who are they for and who not?

If you are just starting with lash extensions, begin with classic extensions or premade fans, which do not need to be made by hand. There you will also find fans for the wet (wispy) look.

FAQ

Which lash thickness is best for Russian volume?

0.05 mm is the most versatile for 4D to 6D. For 2D or 3D, 0.07 mm is usually used, and 0.03 mm for mega volume.

What is the difference between C and D curl?

C gives a medium, natural curve; D is tighter and opens the eye more. Many artists combine both in the same set.

Can I mix lengths in one set?

Yes. Mix trays include several lengths to design the full mapping without opening several trays.

Can volume extensions be used for classic lashes?

0.10 and 0.12 mm can be used for classic on fine natural lashes. Standard classic uses 0.15 or 0.20 mm.

How many extensions are in a Russian volume fan?

Usually 2 to 6 extensions per fan. From 8 upwards it is called mega volume and 0.03 mm is used.

Can Russian volume be done on weak natural lashes?

Yes, with fans of a few fine extensions (2D or 3D in 0.05 or 0.07 mm) and moderate lengths, so as not to overload the natural lash.

What is the difference between hand-made and premade fans?

A hand-made fan is formed by the artist with the tweezers and each fan can be adjusted. A premade fan comes ready, saves time and is easier for those starting with volume.

Which lengths are used in Russian volume?

Most sets are designed between 8 and 13 mm. 6 and 7 mm are used at the inner corner and 14 mm and up for bolder looks.
