Eyelash extensions have become increasingly popular in recent years, as people seek to enhance their beauty with long and luscious lashes. One of the most popular types of eyelash extensions are volume eyelashes, which are usually applied in either 2D or 3D sets. But what exactly is the difference between these two types of lash extensions? In this article, we will explore the differences between 2D and 3D volume eyelash extensions and how they can be applied to achieve the best look for your clients.
What Are 2D Volume Eyelash Extensions?
2D Volume Eyelash Extensions are a type of lash extension that uses multiple strands of ultra-fine synthetic lashes to create a more dramatic effect than classic single-strand lash extensions. They are lighter and fluffier than classic single-strand lashes and come in various lengths, thicknesses, curls and colors so you can customize your look according to your individual needs. They provide extra fullness and texture without looking too heavy or unnatural on the eyes. The application process for 2D Volume Lashes involves using tweezers to carefully attach two ultra-fine strands (one thicker strand on top and one thinner strand underneath) onto each natural lash for a fuller effect.
What Are 3D Volume Eyelash Extensions?
3D Volume Eyelash Extensions are similar to 2D but with an even fuller effect as three ultra-fine strands (one thicker strand on top, one middle sized strand in the middle, one thinner strand underneath) are attached onto each natural lash instead of just two. This creates a more voluminous look while still appearing soft and natural on the eyes. Unlike classic single-strand lashes which require more time consuming applications due to having only one piece per eye, 3D volume lashes can be applied much faster as three pieces per eye can be done at once with this technique.
2D Lashes Vs 3d
So what’s the difference between these two types of volume eyelashes? Generally speaking, 2Ds tend to give off a softer look while providing enough length and thickness for definition; whereas 3Ds offer an even fuller effect with maximum length/thickness for those who want really bold looking eyes! Furthermore, because it takes less time applying three pieces per eye compared to just one piece when using classic single-strand lashes – many clients opt for 3Ds if they’re short on time but still want dramatic results quickly! This type of extension is used for volume, but also for hybrid eyelash extensions.
Apply Volume Eyelash Extensions
Now that you know about both styles of volume eyelashes, let’s discuss how they should be applied correctly by professionals such as Lash Artists or Beauty Therapists! Firstly, it is important that before applying any kind of lash extension onto someone’s eyes, you must always ensure that their natural lashes and skin around their eyes are free from any makeup, oils, creams, etc. Once clean and dry, it is then important to choose which type(s) of lash extension would best suit each individual client depending on their desired look, i.e., Classic Single Strands, Hybrid Mix, Russian Volumes, Mega Volumes, etc. For example, if your client wants something subtle yet defined, then Classic Single Strands may be best suited; however, if they prefer something bolder and longer-lasting, then perhaps Hybrid Mix or Russian Volumes could work better! Finally, after selecting which style works best, all that’s left is getting ready for the application by prepping both tools and materials such as glue, tweezers, lid cleanser, etc. Then simply start attaching individual lash pieces onto natural lashes using appropriate techniques until the desired set has been achieved!
There really isn’t anything wrong with opting for either 2D or 3D when considering getting volume eyelash extensions, as both styles offer different effects depending on what kind of look your clients desire! All that matters is making sure proper techniques and materials have been used during the application process so that everyone ends up happy and satisfied with the end result.
If your client doesn’t want the lashes to look as thick as volume, you can opt for an hybrid eyelash extensions application.
