Everything You Need to Know Before Booking at The Lash 24 Studio

Eyelash extensions have become one of the most popular beauty services in the world — and for good reason. They make your eyes look bigger, brighter, and more lifted without the need for mascara or strip lashes. But with so many styles, lengths, curls, and techniques available, many clients feel overwhelmed when booking their first appointment.

This guide breaks everything down in a simple, clear way. Whether you want Classic, Hybrid, Volume, or Mega Volume lash extensions, you’ll learn what they are, how long they last, how to care for them, and which style fits your eyes best.

🌿 What Are Eyelash Extensions?

Eyelash extensions are thin, lightweight synthetic fibers that are individually attached to your natural lashes using professional-grade adhesive. Unlike strip lashes, lash extensions:

Look more natural

Feel lighter and softer

Last for weeks

Stay put through sleep, sweat, and daily activities

At The Lash 24 Studio, we customize each set to match your eye shape, lifestyle, lash health, and beauty goals.

🔥 Types of Eyelash Extensions (Explained Simply)

One of the biggest questions we get is:
“What’s the difference between Classic, Hybrid, Volume, and Mega Volume?”

Here is the clearest breakdown you will ever read:

⭐ 1. Classic Lash Extensions

Ratio: 1 extension : 1 natural lash
Look: Natural, mascara-like
Best for:

First-timers

Natural or subtle looks

Women with lots of natural lashes

Why choose Classic lashes?

Classic lashes enhance what you already have. They look clean, soft, and natural.

⭐ 2. Hybrid Lash Extensions

Ratio: Mix of Classic + Volume fans
Look: Textured, slightly fuller
Best for:

People who want a fuller look but not dramatic

Women with sparse areas

Everyday glam

Why choose Hybrid?

They give you the perfect balance — not too natural, not too dramatic.

⭐ 3. Volume Lash Extensions

Ratio: 2–6 lightweight lashes per fan
Look: Fluffy, full, glamorous
Best for:

Clients with sparse natural lashes

Soft-glam lovers

Anyone wanting fullness

Why choose Volume?

Volume provides full density, even coverage, and a soft, fluttery lash line.

⭐ 4. Mega Volume Lash Extensions

Ratio: 8–16 ultra-thin lashes per fan
Look: Deep, dark, dramatic
Best for:

Bold glam

Photoshoots

Special events

Long-time lash wearers

🧴 How Long Do Eyelash Extensions Last?

Your lashes naturally shed every 6–8 weeks. Each extension is attached to a natural lash, so they fall out gradually.

Typical retention:

Classic: 2–3 weeks

Hybrid: 2–3+ weeks

Volume: 3–4 weeks

Mega Volume: 3–5 weeks

Regular fills keep your lashes looking full and fresh.

🧼 Eyelash Extension Aftercare (Simple Checklist)

✔ Clean lashes daily with oil-free lash shampoo

Prevents buildup, oils, and poor retention.

✔ Brush your lashes morning & night

Keeps fans fluffy and separated.

✔ Avoid oil-based products

Oil breaks down adhesive.

✔ Sleep on your back

Side/stomach sleeping causes fall-out.

✔ Avoid steam and heavy sweat for 24 hours

Let the adhesive cure properly.

⚠️ Common Mistakes That Damage Eyelash Extensions

Avoid these to keep your lashes lasting longer:

❌ Mascara on extensions
❌ Rubbing/pulling your eyes
❌ Sleeping face-down
❌ Not cleansing
❌ Using oily skincare
❌ Getting them wet too soon

Proper care = better retention + healthier natural lashes.
