What are VOLUME LASHES?
"Volume" lashes are a NEW technique that entered the North American lash industry in 2013. Volume lashes (aka Russian Volume) was, in fact, developed by master lash artists in Russia and Ukraine some say 3-5 years ago! Irina Levchuk of Lash & Brow Academy from Russia brought her own volume technique to Canada in May 2013.
What makes volume different from classic?
With classic one lash eyelash extension is placed onto one natural eyelash. Amazing looks out did even the BEST mascaras offered. Lash Extension Technicians are limited by the amount of natural lashes a client has as well as the different amount of lashes on each eye. This pushes us to lash to the weakest eye to maintain symmetry.
For years clients have wanted...."MORE". The only options were longer and thicker diameters, which became problematic when our client's natural lashes could not safely support these extensions, placing stress on the integrity of health of the natural lash.
Introducing Volume lash extensions a process where multiple ultra light fans are applied to ONE isolated natural lash. The "Russian Volume" technique masterfully achieves this with far thinner lashes that are lighter in weight than we have typically used. Keeping the natural lash healthy and happy. The result? A full, lush lash line that appears fluffy and soft and maintains the health and safety of our client's natural lashes.
After your consultation your Lash Artist will recommend what best suits your expectation taking in consideration of the condition of your natural lashes. The #1 goal of the lash technician should always be the health and integrity of the natural lash.
