Hybrid extensions are a great option for those who can't choose between classic and volume lashes. Since they are a combination of the two types, they can provide you with the best of both worlds which is a perfect balance of a natural look and light volume.
If you're looking for more volume than the classic look but want to avoid the full drama of Volume lashes, hybrid lash extensions are the perfect choice. They offer the best of both worlds, giving you a textured, dramatic lash line that still looks natural.
Personally, I would always choose silk or faux-mink over synthetic, to create a natural look. Softer and more flexible, less stiff and plasticky looking, they usually last longer as well. It may take more of them to create the dramatic look of synthetic lashes though, which some people do love.
Hybrid Lashes vs Volume Lashes & Classic Lashes
Let's assume you went for an even 50/50 split – generally speaking, a hybrid look will seem to last a little bit longer than a classic set, and will already be lighter than full volume when lashes start to fall out.
Hybrid lashes provide excellent volume and coverage for sparse natural lashes, creating a textured, unique look by mixing two different diameter lashes, without being overly dramatic. They are also great for those transitioning from classic to volume lashes.
With proper care, they can last an average of 6 to 8 weeks. On the other hand, since a hybrid lash extension is fuller and a little bit heavier, this type of eyelash often requires a touch-up every 4 to 5 weeks in order for the look to remain intact.
Neither type will give off the appearance of a natural-looking eyelash. So, you'll just need to decide how much volume and drama you're looking for. Go for Russian lashes if you want to take it to the max. If you prefer a more toned-down vibe that's still full and bold, choose a hybrid set.
Several factors can cause eyelash extensions to fall out prematurely. Improper application or aftercare, using oil-based products near the eyes, excessive touching or pulling, and natural shedding can all contribute.
Hybrid Lash Extensions – Lasts up to six weeks
From the name itself, hybrid lash extensions can last the longest, about 6 to 8 weeks.
The requirements of a hybrid eyelash extension set are:
We recommend choosing diameters from 0.05 mm – 0.10 mm and 0.10 mm to 0.20 mm for classic lashes. This thickness depends on the client's natural lashes. The stronger the lashes are, the thicker lashes you can use.
A recent study examined the preferences for female eyelash lengths. The results indicated that individuals across all races typically found an eyelash length equal to one-third of the eye's width to be the most attractive. Faces with extremely long or no eyelashes were perceived as the least appealing.
High-End Brands: Many celebrities opt for high-end brands such as Lilly Lashes and Velour Lashes for their eyelash needs. Customised Looks: Celebrities often have their eyelashes customised to suit their personal style and the demands of different events.
The most popular eyelash extension length is 10-12mm, as it offers a natural and subtle enhancement. However, the length of the lash extension ultimately depends on a few factors: Natural Lash Length: The length of your client's natural lashes will determine the length of the lash extension that will be most suitable.
If your natural lashes aren't thick, hybrid lashes will achieve a fuller look to fill in any empty gaps. Classic extend lashes can make low density natural lashes look more sparse. Mixing two techniques together to deliver a unique finish to you.
Use an oil-based eye-makeup remover
Use it as the first step of your double cleanse and gently move the oil around in circular motions using a makeup remover bad. You will start seeing the lash glue dissolve. You may need to do this a few nights in a row to fully remove all lash extensions.
For clients who want a slightly fuller hybrid look, 20-40% volume fans are a great option. For this lash look, you will want to apply volume fans between every 2-5 classic lash extensions. We recommend using around 6-10D for this lash style.
Hybrid lashes, which are sometimes called a "mixed set," have a fuller look than classic lashes but aren't as uniform as a Russian volume set. This method is perfect for people who want more drama than classic lashes but don't want the fullness of volume lashes.
Do hybrid lashes fall out faster? Hybrid lashes tend to last longer than volume lashes because they have less density. They don't shed as quickly, but proper care is essential to make them last.
The third is about length: There are not many notes for the length of hybrid lashes, mainly 8mm to 12mm, depending on the extension types that the length is suitable for. In addition, you also use lash fans such as 3D, 4D, 5D, 7D etc..., for the types of eyelash extensions.
Expensive: At most licensed lash salons, the hybrid set may be more expensive than traditional eyelashes. However, this is due to the fact that they require more time and skill than traditional lashes. Hybrid lashes are also less expensive than volume lashes.
Cleaning your lash extensions can definitely help them last longer, so be diligent. A gentle cleanser will remove debris and especially oils that can collect at the base of your lash line and weaken the lash adhesive. It's important to choose a lash-safe cleanser or micellar water formula.
This means that hybrid strip lashes are more flexible, comfortable, and durable. Because of how they are made, they tend to look more natural than other types of false lashes, making them a good choice for everyday wear.
What are Angel Lashes? Angel lashes put a slightly different spin on a wispy, wet look. Unlike dramatic, voluminous lash extensions, they have a subtle finish that's softer, more natural and imitates the appearance of naturally long, thick lashes.
Unlike Hybrid lashes, which use a mixture of lash fans and individual lashes, Classic lashes only use individual lash extensions which will result in a subtle enhancement. For those seeking a more natural look, Classic eyelash extensions are the perfect choice.
