Lash Extensions vs Lash Lifts: Which is Right for You?

Hello, gorgeous! Are you ready to level up your lash game? At On Fleek Studio, we offer two amazing options to enhance your lashes: lash extensions and lash lifts. In this beauty blog, we’ll dive into the pros and cons of each treatment. Our goal is to help you make an informed decision that suits your style and beauty goals. Let’s explore the world of fabulous lashes and find the perfect fit for you!

Lash Extensions give have many different styles & types to choose from. Your Lash Artist will decide which look to go with based on the clients desired outcome & the health of your natural lashes.

There are Classic & Volume lashes with styles ranging from Natural to Dramatic.

Classic Lashes

Classic Lashes are performed by adhering one lash extension to 90% of natural eyelash. This option is better for someone with full, healthy lashes (any length).

Volume Lashes

Volume Lashes are performed by using fans. Each fan can be 4-10 lash extensions attached to one real lash giving a more filled in, darker look. This option is better for someone with sparse lashes (since they are light in weight) or someone wanting a fuller, darker lash line.

Are Volume Lashes Longer than Classic Lashes?

No, Volume Lashes are not necessarily longer than Classic Lashes. The same lengths are available in both types. Because Volume Lashes are fans, they take up more space than Classic Lashes making them fuller and a better option for someone with sparse lashes.

1. Length and Volume: Lash extensions provide instant length and volume, creating a glamorous and dramatic look that’s sure to turn heads.
2. Customizable: With a variety of lengths, thicknesses, and styles, lash extensions can be tailored to your desired look, whether you prefer a natural or bold effect.
3. Long-Lasting Results: When properly cared for, lash extensions can last up to several weeks, giving you a prolonged period of stunning lashes.
4. Our esthetic professionals can safely remove them for you at any time.
5. Wake up feeling beautiful without needing to spend time applying makeup.

1. Maintenance: Lash extensions require regular maintenance with refill appointments every 2-3 weeks to maintain the fullness and ensure a flawless look.
2. Allergic Reactions: While rare, some individuals may experience allergic reactions to the adhesive used for lash extensions. A patch test should be booked prior to your full set if this is a concern.
3. Cost: Lash extensions are generally more expensive upfront compared to lash lifts, considering the initial application and regular refills.

A Lash Lift is like a perm for your eyelashes that will keep your lashes lifted and curled. Lash Lifts typically last for 4 to 6 weeks. They require little maintenance and have little to no restrictions.

1. Natural Look: Lash lifts enhance your natural lashes by giving them a beautiful curl and lift, creating an effortlessly elegant and wide-eyed appearance.
2. Low Maintenance: Unlike lash extensions, lash lifts require minimal upkeep, with results lasting 4-6 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle.
3. Time-Saving: With a lash lift, you can skip the daily curling routine, as your lashes will stay beautifully lifted and curled even without mascara.

1. Limited Volume: Lash lifts primarily focus on curling the lashes, so if you desire additional volume, lash extensions may be a better choice.
2. Less Dramatic Effect: Lash lifts provide a more subtle enhancement compared to lash extensions, which may not be ideal if you prefer a bold, statement-making look.
3. Not Ideal for Short Lashes: Lash lifts work best on lashes with a decent length. If your natural lashes are very short, lash extensions might be a better option to achieve the desired length and volume.
