Thinking about getting eyelash extensions for the first time? Maybe you’re tired of clumpy mascara or struggling with strip lashes that won’t stay put. Either way, lash extensions can give you longer, fuller lashes without the daily hassle. But should you go for Classic or Volume lashes? What do these words even mean? 🤔 Let’s break it all down in a simple, first-timer-friendly way!
What’s the Difference Between Classic & Volume Lashes?
💖 Classic Lashes = A single lash extension applied to each of your natural lashes. This gives you a natural, mascara-like look.
🔥 Volume Lashes = Multiple thinner extensions fanned out and applied to each natural lash, making them fuller, fluffier, and more dramatic.
💡 Fun fact: “Russian Volume” is just a term! It doesn’t mean the lashes are Russian—it’s just the name for the technique of applying multiple ultra fine lash extensions per natural lash.
