Which eyelashes are best for extensions?

Every year, the popularity of eyelash extensions is growing.

Changing the density and volume, using bright colors, choosing an attractive design for future eyelashes, you can constantly update your style, emphasizing the dignity of the face and significantly changing the appearance.

The procedure for eyelash extensions has recently become a trend. And along with the popularity is growing and the choice of eyelashes for extensions.

Existing types of hairs vary in diameter:

• super slim hairs with a diameter of 0.05-0.07 mm have the conventional names "mink" and "silk";
• medium-thin yarns with a diameter of 0.10-0.15 mm are called “columns”;
• thick ("Sable") come with a diameter of 0.18-0.25 mm.

Varieties according to the degree of bending have letter designations: J, B, C, D and L, and in terminology they mean:

• almost straight eyelashes;
• barely noticeable bend;
• middle;
• puppet;
• the strongest bend.

The fibers are different in the cut of the tip: oval or cut at an angle. Type of eyelashes according to the technique of extension: ciliary, bundle. Synthetic eyelashes are subdivided by color into black, colored and decorative.

The process of quality building involves the use of several materials. Specialists conventionally designate them with the following terms: mink, sable or silk, but they are not related to the animal and plant world. Manufacturers use similar names to indicate the main characteristics, highlight differences and specific results: large volume, minimum thickness or maximum density. In this way, the necessary associations are called up by consumers. Often leading to allergies, real animal fur is not used, and artificial threads are hypoallergenic.

Due to the length of 0.15 mm, the hairs look natural and are closest to natural eyelashes.

Thick hairs with a length of 0.15-0.25 mm create the effect of brightly colored eyelashes. They are resilient but heavy. The large thickness of the fiber allows you to add splendor to the eyelashes, therefore models from sable are suitable for evening and creative makeup.

From this material smooth glossy eyelashes with a diameter of 0.1 mm are obtained. This look creates the effect of makeup eyelashes. Light in daily wear and the most durable they are the classic choice of natural blondes with fair skin and naturally weak eyelashes.

The most popular color for eyelash extensions is classic black. But for parties, corporate parties, weddings and special occasions, the use of colored threads will be quite appropriate. With their brightness and unusual appearance, they will give expressiveness to the look, emphasize individuality and attract the attention of others. You can create any bold and even extravagant image, but stylists recommend adhering to certain beauty principles in creating outrageous onions. The rules for a harmonious combination of shades dictate their requirements.

Shades of synthetic threads can be selected according to the color of the hair. For example, light brown tones are suitable for owners of light or red hair. The deep tone of green eyelashes will be red-haired to the face. Ideal for blondes are brown and gray cilia.

Colored eyelashes can enhance the brightness of the natural shade of the iris:

• violet, blue - brown;
• red, burgundy, lilac, red - green;
• chocolate, yellow and gold - blue;
• blue or green - gray eyes.

However, one should adhere to the measure and competently combine extended eyelashes not only with eyes and hair, but also with clothes and accessories.

Of great importance in creating the desired effect are the length and thickness of eyelash extensions. These parameters are selected before the procedure.

The length of the eyelashes is from 6 to 20 mm. And by thickness, all threads are divided into the following types.

• Thick. These are 0.25 mm eyelashes designed to produce large volumes. They are easy to build and create an expressive image.
• Medium. 0.2 mm models look like mascara tinted eyelashes. They are more often than other types used in everyday wear.
• Thin. Products from 0.08 to 0.15 mm are not felt before the eyes, even in women with thin own eyelashes, unable to withstand heavy loads.

Today, distinguishing artificial from natural eyelashes is quite difficult. Recently, technologies in this industry have taken a significant step forward. Modern developers of premium products guarantee a natural effect.

Short fiber is absolutely contraindicated for deep-set eyes. To choose the right product, you need to measure the length of the native fallen cilia. Add to the resulting value. 1-2 mm and get a comfortable length for everyday wear. To create a more natural look, you should buy eyelashes 10 mm long. 12 mm models are only glued with their own long eyelashes.

Silk is the best option for everyday wear. It is the best choice for wearing comfort. For beginners, for the first time, it is recommended to choose hypoallergenic eyelashes of small length and with the same slight bend to give the eyes a habit.

The bend is selected depending on the length of the cilia. The longer the hair, the shorter the bend. The shape of the eyelids plays a large role in his choice. For an Asian-looking person, either a maximum L bend or J-bend, which gives the eyes a natural effect, is recommended.

Frequent water treatments damage silk fibers. Therefore, one should refrain from building silk for those involved in sports, especially its aquatic species. But this is the only limitation on silk fiber.

It is not recommended to increase eyelashes for girls who have any eye diseases, especially infectious and chronic. This can complicate the treatment.
