Imagine not having to worry one bit about whether your mascara is going to run or come off. It can be a reality if you get lash extensions for your wedding. Lash extensions are your little fluffy knights in shining armour. They can take anywhere from an hour-and-a-half to three hours for a full set to be applied, so it's definitely not a treatment you can get on your lunch break.
Lash extensions typically last the same lifetime as your natural lash cycle, which is between four to six weeks. However, to avoid them looking patchy as they grow out, most salons recommend top-ups after two or three weeks to keep lashes looking completely full and uniform. The options on what to get are vast and can be daunting if you don't know your Russian lashes from your individuals.
If you're wanting some serious XXL volume that gives the impression that your eyes are fuller and wider, Russian lash extensions are for you. They come in clusters and hold anywhere between two to eight lashes per bundle. They're incredibly lightweight and can last anywhere between four to six weeks before infills.
Individuals are exactly how they sound: One false lash is applied to everyone of your natural lashes (this is what can take up to three hours to apply). Individuals still add volume, but they look slightly subtler than Russian lashes. These can last anywhere between two to three weeks.
You may also want to look into treatments such as lash lifts, which is essentially a perm for your lashes that lasts. It's a great alternative to extensions and for those who have shorter lashes.
