What is the difference between classic eyelash extensions from 2D?

Eyelash extensions - a fairly popular procedure, which has several varieties. However, those who want to do it for the first time often face the choice of which type of building to prefer: classic or 2D. In order to correctly answer this question, you need to understand what exactly is the difference between these two techniques, who suits each of them, and how to choose your own building option.

Before comparing the described types of building, consider what each of them is.

• Classic build - The simplest and fastest procedure. It is characterized by the fact that one artificial eyelash is glued to each of its own.

• 2D extension - This is a longer time and more complicated technique. It implies attaching two artificial hairs to one natural one.

In general, the procedure itself occurs in the same way. But there are a number of criteria that, despite the external similarity, actually turn out to be major differences.

Despite the fact that the extended cilia in both the classic and 2D styles look quite natural, there is still quite a bit between them noticeable visual difference. It is explained quite simply: in the second case, a larger amount of material is used, and the building process itself occurs a little differently.

In the classic execution of the procedure additional cilia are glued only on the sides of the eyelid and in its upper part, and when building 2D they can additionally adhere to the lower part of the eyelid by the growth of hairs.Therefore, in the second embodiment, a more dense, visible and saturated frame of the eye is obtained.

The differences lie also in what kind of hairs the artificial material is attached to. When performing the classical procedure, it adheres to even the weakest and smallest cilia. When choosing the second option, artificial hairs are attached only to healthy cilia. And also, choosing a 2D technique, you can create an additional effect: improve the cut of the eyes, create a puppet or fox look. Classically extended eyelashes do not allow such an effect.

Thickness, the ability to achieve an additional effect, the apparent visibility of the procedure itself and distinguishes the 2D technique from the classics.

In general, eyelash extensions take from 2 to 4 hours. The amount of time depends on the experience of the master, the desire of the client to achieve an additional effect when performing the procedure, the quality of the materials used and the type of building.

Classic is considered the simplest and fastest performing technique. One session lasts approximately 1.5-2.5 hours, depending on the initial state of the eyelashes and the experience of the master.

But the procedure itself is quite complicated and consists of the following steps:

1. degreasing of hairs;
2. drawing on the patch of each cilia, taking into account its length and direction of growth;
3. preparation of materials for work;
4. direct gluing of eyelashes on the eyelid.

The difficulty lies in the fact that artificial hairs adhere even to the smallest natural ones. They are the same size, which significantly slows down the work.

Double-volume growth involves the procedure using the same methodology as the classic. In most cases, the work takes the same amount of time, although the number of glued eyelashes is twice as much. Just the hairs are glued together in two and have a larger size compared to natural ones. If the client wants to create additional effects (complex bending or cat's eye), then the procedure takes about 3 hours or more.

In any case, it turns out that the classic build-up, although more complex, takes less time than 2D technology. Please note that the overall execution time of each type of procedure is significantly affected by the quality of the materials used and the experience of the master himself.

This is another important indicator that distinguishes the two types of this procedure from each other. It should be noted right away that time is indicated figuratively: the duration of the effect is not only affected by the correct care of the eyelash extensions, but also by the initial state of their natural hairs.

In general, time to wear classic eyelashes subject to proper care and quality execution of the procedure itself can reach 6 weeks. Moreover, the warranty period is three weeks. However, there were cases when the eyelashes retained their original appearance after the procedure for more than 2 months.

Guaranteed preservation of appearance after eyelash extensions using 2D technology is 14-28 days. But the effect can last much longer - up to 5 weeks. If colored artificial hairs were used during the procedure, the masters themselves do not recommend wearing them for longer than 3 weeks without a break. After this time, it is necessary to carry out a correction and fill the resulting voids with new cilia. Or you should completely remove them, but only with the help of a wizard.

And yet, you can increase eyelashes no more than 3-4 times in a row. Otherwise, the condition of natural cilia will be greatly deteriorated.

Regardless of which type of extension was chosen, eyelash care will be the same. Experts recommend that the following recommendations be followed exactly.

1. After the procedure, categorically Do not wet your face and eyelashes, especially over the next 3 hours. And the ideal time is one day.
2. No greasy creams, tonics or skin care lotions, especially for centuries. A greasy emulsion destroys the glue; as a result, the hairs begin to fall out prematurely.
3. You should forget about sleeping on your stomach. The best option is strictly on the back. If you are used to sleeping on your side, you will have to constantly ensure that the cilia do not touch the pillow. Otherwise, they will break and begin to fall out faster.
4. After sleep and every time after contact with water it is necessary to comb the cilia with a special brush, directing them in the right direction in accordance with the selected effect of building.
5. Do not try to independently remove or glue the peeled off hair in place. This will only aggravate the situation and may lead to unpredictable consequences.

Eyelash extensions, some girls still manage to apply mascara daily to them, and then remove it with special means. Doing so is strictly prohibited. This will only worsen the appearance of the cilia and lead to their deformation and loss.

Masters say that the use of mascara is allowed, but only in very rare cases, and it should be removed from the eyes with plain water and approved water-based products and without oils in the composition. If an eyeliner is used for makeup, after using it, you must also correct the cilia with a special brush.

Before you go to the procedure for a leshmeiker (specialist in eyelash extensions), you must decide at home which particular option you yourself are more inclined to. However, it is worth being prepared for the fact that the master may refuse to carry out the building you have chosen and will insist on the implementation of another technique.

In such cases, you should not argue, but you should agree. It will be easier for a specialist to professionally assess the condition of the cilia themselves, the direction of their growth and determine whether the chosen option is suitable for the eye section and their shape.

When choosing between classic and 2D, it is imperative to consider the following points.

1. The time that you are willing to spend on your procedure, as well as the period for which it will be held. Of course, these indicators are very arbitrary, but they are the ones that are fundamental. They will allow you to determine not only the most suitable type of building, but also choose the right time for the procedure itself.
2. The purpose of the procedure. If you just need to get rid of the daily use of mascara and just add a little expressiveness and volume, then the classic building will be a great choice. If it is important to create a bright and unique image with additional effects, then it is better to perform 2D.
3. Condition of own hairs. If they are thin and rare, then only the classic is suitable, otherwise after removing the extended cilia from your own there may be no trace. But when your eyelashes are long and strong, the 2D volume will be the best choice.

Photos of various options for the procedure will allow you to clearly see the final version of the work and choose the most suitable for you. Pay attention to how natural, natural and at the same time attractive the classic building looks.. The look became deeper and more expressive, and the cilia, like a fringe, beautifully envelop the eyelid.

Here you can clearly see the result of eyelash extensions using 2D technology, without using any additional effects. The volume, length, and more saturated color of the hairs themselves are immediately visible. Ideal for blonde girls. But like this 2D hair extensions look impressive and expressive, strong and quite long from nature. The look is very soulful, with a slight “cunning”.

Eyelash extensions are a great option for every girl who wants to always look great without using mascara.
