As a lash artist, staying updated with the latest trends in the world of eyelash extensions is crucial to meet the ever-changing demands of clients. From classic looks to innovative techniques, the industry is constantly evolving. In this blog post, we'll dive into the exciting eyelash extensions trends from a lash artist's perspective, giving you insights into the techniques, styles, and designs that are making waves in the world of lashes.
A long story
Who doesn't like long and luscious-looking lashes? You may have clients who want to keep their lashes as realistic as possible by going for a classic look but let them know that voluminous lashes are a thing this year. From the runways to celebrity spotting, everyone seems to be loving their eyes doing all the talking. The longer and denser, the better. It may take a bit of planning to map and decide which shape, thickness, and length you will be using to create that unique client look, but the result would be all worth it. These long lashes accentuate the eyes and make them look more prominent and glamourous, with or without makeup.
Coloured Eyelash Extensions
Adding some color to your life or to your lashes hurts no one. Colourful lashes are trending on the runway and TikTok, which means it's official that the trend is for real. You may have limited takers for this trend; however, you may show them a few options on how they can rock it. Choosing bold colors like rainbow hues or bright hues may be too much for day-to-day, but great for festivals or events. Nudging your clients to choose colors to complement their eye color can be a great way to try this trend. You can even mix it up a bit by selecting the standard black lashes with a hint of a few colorful ones at the end or going ombre. Darker hues of blues, greens, browns, reds, or purples can work for everyday workwear as well. Play with a hint of color or go color crazy!
Sparkles and shine
Go bold or go home. Embellished eyelashes are all the rage. The runways are awash with models making their sparkly eyes be the talk of the town. Again, this trend is more trendy than practical. Maybe if your client is going to a party or an exceptional event (the Met Gala, perhaps!), you can encourage them to add some zing to their lashes.
Wet Look
The Wet Look is a stunning lash extension technique that takes the lash spike trend to a whole new level. By utilizing closed fans and the application of 0.05 or 0.03 volume lashes, lash artists can achieve a glossy, sleek appearance reminiscent of wet lashes. The result is a mesmerizing, high-shine finish that adds a touch of drama and glamour to any set of eyelash extensions. The Wet Look technique is perfect for clients who desire a bold and striking lash style that commands attention!
Premade Fans
In times past, premade fans were absolute taboo in the lash industry, but like many things, they have come leaps and bounds since they first graced us. If you can find some of real quality, you save precious time and increase your client turnover and bookings. What's more, you don't need the extra bit of training in doing Russian volumes, and you can achieve a symmetrical set of lashes. Doing them will also allow you to earn more revenue than you would from a classic set. Now that's a win-win trend.
In the ever-evolving world of eyelash extensions, staying on top of the latest trends is essential for lash artists. However, amidst the excitement of new styles and techniques, there's one crucial factor that should never be overlooked: lash retention. Regardless of the trend du jour, ensuring long-lasting lash extensions is paramount for customer satisfaction. That's why it's vital for lash artists to incorporate the use of Prolong Lash Cleanser into their routine.
Prolong Lash Cleanser is specifically designed to gently cleanse and nourish the lashes, helping to maintain their integrity and prolong their lifespan. By using Prolong Lash Cleanser, lash artists can provide their clients with enhanced retention, ensuring their beautiful lash extensions withstand the test of time.
