Classic Lash Extensions: Step-by-Step Guide

Are you a beginner lash technician struggling with applying classic lash extensions on mannequin? Are you a lash artist endeavoring to improve retention of classic sets? In this article, we explore the charm and benefits of classic lash extensions, and walk you through each step in this process.

What are classic lash extensions?

Classic lashes are the perfect way to enhance natural lashes. With the classic technique, one individual lash is applied to one natural lash (ratio 1:1) to create a set of longer and thicker lashes. 

Each extension is meticulously attached using a safe and medical-grade adhesive, creating a seamless blend with your existing lashes. The result is a natural yet enhanced look that opens up your eyes, making them appear brighter and more captivating.

How to apply classic lash to clients

Classic lash application, along with volume lash and hybrid lash extension, are techniques used to enhance the length and volume of natural lashes. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do classic lash application:

Preparation: set up your work area with good lighting, sanitize your hands and tools, cleanse their lashes and remove any makeup

Isolate natural lashes: apply gel patches or under-eye pads to protect the lower lashes, use lash pads or tape to secure the upper lashes and create a clear working area

Pick up extension: use tweezers to pick up an extension from the tray

Apply adhesive: dip the extension’s base into the lash adhesive, coating about 1-2 mm of the base

Placement: place the extension on a single, isolated natural lash, about 1 mm away from the eyelid

Repeat and fill: continue applying extensions to natural lashes

Comb and separate: use a lash comb or brush to comb through the extensions, separating and arranging them evenly

Curing and drying: use an air blower or mini fan to help the adhesive cure and dry
