Achieving Perfect Russian Volume Lashes: A Beginner’s Guide

You've undoubtedly heard of Russian Volume lashes if you've ever appreciated those big, feathery pairs that appear to brighten and define every eye. Customers who want a little more drama without the weight have grown to love these handcrafted fans because of their amazing density and lightweight feel.

But it takes expertise to make these beautiful groupings. Here's a little tutorial to help you become proficient at Russian Volume lashing, regardless of your level of experience.

What Are Russian Volume Lashes? 

Applying many very thin extensions, frequently as thin as 0.03 to 0.07 mm, to a single natural lash is known as Russian volume lashing. You may create personalised fans with two to ten lashes each, in contrast to traditional lashes, which have one extension per natural lash. Without overtaxing the natural lash, this technique creates a luxurious, fluffy look. 

Picking the Right Lashes and Tools

Selecting premium, ultra-fine extensions should be your first step. You may add more volume without harming the client's natural lashes if the lashes are lighter.

Additionally, don't undervalue the tools! It is essential to have a pair of precise volume tweezers. In order for the fan to look neat and remain in place, they assist you in evenly fanning the lashes and ensure that the base remains narrow. 

Making Perfect Fans

Try a variety of fanning techniques, such as shimmying, pinching, or using a sticky strip, and determine which one is most comfortable for you. Making symmetrical fans with a tight base that precisely fits the natural lash is the aim. 

Applying the Fans

Apply a little amount of glue to the fan's base; too much glue might cause the fan to close or add extra weight. After that, carefully position the fan 1 mm from the lash line while isolating one natural lash. Before continuing, let it connect properly for a time. 

Symmetry and Placement

When every fan is symmetrical and facing the same direction, Russian Volume looks its finest. To ensure that every fan seems tidy and consistent, pay close attention to placement and spacing. The finished set will appear sleek and seamless thanks to this meticulous effort.

Tips for Success

Practice often: Creating ideal fans is a talent that gets better with practice.

• Remember client safety: To preserve the natural lash, check the dimension and quantity of lashes each fan.
• Make yourself comfortable: The procedure is facilitated and expedited by enough lighting, an ergonomic chair, and a neatly arranged lash tile.

Making exquisite Russian volume sets is an art form. You can offer your customers a gorgeous, full lash appearance that feels weightless and delicate with the correct technique, expertise, and patience.

If you keep improving, you'll soon be able to effortlessly create stunning volume lashes, and your clients will appreciate it!
