Whether you’re looking for a classic full set, or hybrid sets which combine classic and volume lash extensions for a more dramatic look. Our classic cat eye sets, on the other hand, feature a longer and thicker extension towards the outer corner of the eye, creating a winged effect.

Volume lashes, on the other hand, are perfect for those who want a fuller and more dramatic look. They consist of multiple lash extensions that are fanned out and applied to each natural lash, creating a voluminous effect. They come in various styles, including natural volume lashes, wispy volume lashes, and mega volume lashes, to suit different preferences.

They can be applied as accents to your natural lashes or used to create a full set of colourful lashes. At Giali Lashes, we offer coloured classic lash extensions to help you add a pop of colour to your lash look.

How do you apply classic lashes?

To apply classic lashes, a trained lash artist will first assess your eye shape and natural lashes to determine the best length, curl, and thickness of lash extensions to use. The lash extensions are then applied one by one using a special adhesive that is safe for use around the eye area. The application process can take anywhere from 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on the desired look and the number of lash extensions needed.

Why choose classic lashes?

Classic lashes are a versatile lash style that can be customised to suit different eye shapes and preferences. Your lash technician can do lashes in various sets, including full sets, hybrid sets, and cat eye sets, and can be combined with other styles such as wispy and volume.

FAQs

How long do classic lashes take to apply?

Classic lashes refer to the traditional eyelash extension style where one extension is applied to one natural lash. The application process can take anywhere from one to two hours for a full set, depending on the technician's speed and the client's natural lash count. The process involves isolating each natural lash and carefully applying an extension using lash adhesive. Classic lash extensions can provide a natural, everyday look, and are perfect for clients who want to enhance their natural lashes without an overly dramatic effect. Classic lash extensions are widely available, including in Australia, where there are many options for classic lash sets.

Are hybrid lashes better than classic?

Whether hybrid lashes are better than classic lashes ultimately depends on your personal preferences and desired look. Classic lash extensions consist of one individual lash extension applied to one natural lash, resulting in a natural and defined look. On the other hand, hybrid lashes combine classic lashes and volume lashes, providing a more textured and voluminous appearance. Hybrid lashes can be customised to suit various eye shapes, allowing for a more dramatic and eye-catching look. However, they may not be suitable for those seeking a more subtle and natural appearance. Ultimately, it is best to consult with a lash technician to determine which style is best for you.

How long do classic lashes last?

Classic lash extensions typically last for around 3 to 4 weeks, depending on several factors such as natural lash growth cycle, aftercare, and individual lifestyle. It is essential to follow proper aftercare instructions to ensure longevity of the lash extensions, such as avoiding oil-based products and excessive rubbing of the eyes. Refills are typically recommended every 2 to 3 weeks to maintain the fullness and shape of the lashes. With proper care, classic lash extensions can last up to 6 weeks, but it is not recommended to exceed that time frame to prevent damage to the natural lashes.

How many lashes are in a classic set?

The number of lashes in a classic set varies depending on the salon and the stylist's technique. Typically, a full set of classic lash extensions includes between 80 to 120 lashes per eye, and the application process can take up to two hours. The stylist carefully applies each individual extension to a natural lash using a semi-permanent adhesive. The result is a natural, fluttery lash look that enhances the eyes. Some salons may offer variations of the classic lash set, such as a light set with fewer lashes or a glamour set with more volume and length.

How to apply classic lashes?

Applying classic lashes requires careful attention to detail and a steady hand. First, cleanse the eye area to remove any oils or debris. Then, select the appropriate lash length and style based on the client's preferences. Next, gently apply a small amount of lash glue to the base of each individual classic lash extension and place it on the natural lash line, using tweezers to carefully position each lash. It's important to ensure each lash is properly spaced and adhered to prevent clumping or discomfort. After the glue has dried, comb through the lashes with a spoolie to create a natural look.
