Classic lash extensions are the gold standard of lash enhancements, offering a natural look that’s perfect for any occasion. They involve applying one extension to each natural lash in a 1:1 ratio, creating a subtle yet striking effect. Think of it like upgrading your favorite jeans with a tailored fit—same vibe, just better.

Breaking It Down:

• Definition: One synthetic, silk, or faux mink extension is bonded to each natural lash using medical-grade adhesive.

• Materials: Options include synthetic lashes, silk lashes, faux mink lashes, or PBT material, all lightweight and flexible

• Benefits: They enhance length and thickness, eliminate the need for mascara, and are ideal for first-time users or those seeking a natural look.

• Application Process: A lash technician uses an isolation technique, separating each lash with tweezers and applying extensions with precision. This takes 1-2 hours.

• Safety: When done by certified professionals, the risk of damage is low. Hypoallergenic adhesives reduce allergic reactions, addressing concerns about irritation

At beautiatelier, our lash artists are trained to deliver flawless results, ensuring your classic eyelashes feel as good as they look. I once had a client who was nervous about trying extensions, fearing they’d look unnatural. After a consultation and a classic set, she couldn’t stop smiling at her reflection—proof that the right technique makes all the difference.
