Eyelash extension is a fairly popular procedure that has several varieties. However, those who want to do it for the first time are often faced with the choice of which type of extension to give preference to: classic or 2D. In order to correctly answer this question, you need to figure out what exactly is the difference between these two techniques, who is suitable for each of them, and how to choose the right extension option.

Comparison criteria

Before comparing the described types of extension, consider what each of them is.

  • Classic extension - the simplest and fastest procedure. It is characterized by the fact that one artificial one is glued to each of its own eyelashes.
  • Extend 2D - This is a more time-consuming and more difficult technique to perform. It involves attaching two artificial hairs at once to one natural one.

In general, the procedure itself occurs in the same way. But there are a number of criteria that, despite the external similarity, in fact, turn out to be major differences.

the effect

Despite the fact that the extended eyelashes both in the classic style and in the 2D style look quite natural, there is still a very noticeable visual difference. It is explained quite simply: in the second case, more material is used, and the building process itself takes place a little differently.

With the classic procedure additional cilia are glued only on the sides of the eyelid and in the upper part of it, and when building up 2D they can additionally adhere to the lower part of the eyelid according to the growth of hairs.Therefore, in the second version, a thicker, more visible and saturated framing of the eye is obtained.

The differences also lie in which hairs the artificial material is attached to. In the classic procedure, it sticks to even the smallest and weakest eyelashes. When choosing the second option, artificial hairs are attached only to healthy cilia. And also, choosing the 2D technique, you can create an additional effect: improve the shape of the eyes, create a puppet or fox look. Classically extended eyelashes do not allow such an effect to be achieved.

Density, the possibility of achieving an additional effect, a clear visibility of the procedure itself and distinguishes the 2D technique from the classics.

Duration and complexity of the procedure

In general, eyelash extensions take 2 to 4 hours. The amount of time depends on the experience of the master, the client's desire to achieve an additional effect when performing the procedure, the quality of the materials used and the type of extension.

The classic is considered the simplest and fastest technique. One session lasts approximately 1.5-2.5 hours, depending on the initial condition of the eyelashes and the experience of the master.

But the procedure itself is rather complicated and consists of the following stages:

  1. degreasing hairs;
  2. drawing on the patch of each cilium, taking into account its length and direction of growth;
  3. preparation of materials for work;
  4. direct gluing of eyelashes to the eyelid.

The difficulty lies in the fact that artificial hairs stick to even the smallest natural ones. They are the same size, which significantly slows down the work.

Build-up using the double volume technology involves carrying out the procedure according to the same technique as the classic... In most cases, the work takes the same amount of time, although the number of glued eyelashes is twice as much. It's just that the hairs are glued together in two and have a larger size compared to natural ones. If the client wants to create additional effects (complex bend or cat's eye), then the procedure takes about 3 hours or more.

In any case, it turns out that the implementation of the classic build-up, although more complicated, takes less time than with 2D technology. It should be borne in mind that the total time to complete each type of procedure is significantly influenced by both the quality of the materials used and the experience of the master himself.

A specialist who has not performed any type of extension for the first time copes much faster than a beginner.

Wear time

This is another of the important indicators that distinguish the two types of this procedure from each other. It should be noted right away that the time is indicated figuratively: the duration of the preservation of the effect is influenced not only by the correct care of extended eyelashes, but also by the initial state of its natural hairs.

In general classic eyelash wear time subject to proper care for them and high-quality performance of the procedure itself, it can reach 6 weeks. In this case, the warranty period is three weeks. However, there were also cases when eyelashes retained their original appearance after the procedure for more than 2 months.

The guaranteed preservation of the appearance after eyelash extension using 2D technology is 14-28 days. But the effect can last much longer - up to 5 weeks. If colored artificial hairs were used during the procedure, the masters themselves do not recommend wearing them for more than 3 weeks without interruption. After this time, it is necessary to carry out a correction and fill the formed voids with new cilia. Or it is worth completely removing them, but only with the help of a wizard.

And yet, you can extend eyelashes no more than 3-4 times in a row. Otherwise, the condition of natural cilia will be greatly deteriorated.

The extension masters themselves say that it is necessary to carry out the correction as soon as you notice the intense loss of artificial eyelashes.

Follow-up care

Regardless of what type of extension has been chosen, the care for the eyelashes will be the same. Experts recommend that the following recommendations be followed exactly.

  1. After the procedure, categorically it is forbidden to wet the face and eyelashes, especially over the next 3 hours. And the ideal time frame is one day.
  2. No greasy creams, toners or lotions for skin care, especially for the eyelids... The greasy emulsion destroys the glue, as a result, the hairs begin to fall out prematurely.
  3. You should forget about sleeping on your stomach. The best option is strictly on the back. If you are used to sleeping on your side, then you will have to constantly make sure that the eyelashes do not touch the pillow. Otherwise, they will wrinkle and begin to fall out faster.
  4. After sleep and every time after contact with water it is necessary to comb the cilia with a special brush, directing them in the right direction in accordance with the selected build-up effect.
  5. Do not try to remove or glue loose hairs on your own.... This will only aggravate the situation and can lead to unpredictable consequences.

Extending eyelashes, some girls still manage to apply mascara on them every day, and then remove it with special means. Doing so is strictly prohibited. This will only worsen the appearance of the cilia and lead to their deformation and loss.

The masters say that the use of mascara is allowed, but only in very rare cases, and it should be removed from the eyes with plain water and water-based products allowed for this and without oils in the composition. If an eyeliner is used for makeup, after using it, you must also correct the eyelashes with a special brush.

Only strict observance of all these rules will allow you to preserve the original appearance of eyelash extensions for a long time.

What is the best choice?

Before you go for the procedure to a lashmaker (eyelash extension specialist), it is necessary to decide at home which option you yourself are more inclined to. However, here you should be prepared for the fact that the master may refuse to carry out the extension you have chosen and will insist on performing another technique.

In such cases, you should not argue, but you should agree. It will be easier for a specialist to professionally assess the condition of the cilia themselves, the direction of their growth and determine whether the chosen option is suitable for the shape of the eyes and their shape.

When choosing between classic and 2D, it is imperative to consider the following points.

  1. The time that you are willing to spend on your procedure, as well as the period for which it will be carried out. Of course, these indicators are very arbitrary, but they are the fundamental ones. They will allow you to determine not only the most suitable type of extension, but also to choose the right time for the procedure itself.
  2. The purpose of the procedure. If you just need to get rid of the daily use of mascara and just add a little expressiveness and volume, then the classic extension will be an excellent choice. If it is important to create a bright and unique image with additional effects, then it is better to perform 2D.
  3. Condition of own hairs. If they are thin and rare, then only the classics will do, otherwise, after removing the extended cilia, not a trace of your own may remain. But when your eyelashes are long and strong, then 2D volume will be the best choice.

It is also worth remembering that only classic eyelashes look natural. Therefore, supporters of naturalness should pay attention to this type of procedure.

Photo "before" and "after"

Photos of various options for the procedure will allow you to visually see the final version of the work and choose the most suitable one for you. Pay attention to how natural, natural and at the same time attractive classic build-up looks.... The look has become deeper and more expressive, and the cilia, like a fringe, beautifully envelop the eyelid.

Here you can clearly see the result of eyelash extension using 2D technology, without using any additional effects. Both volume and length are immediately visible, as well as a more saturated color of the hairs themselves. Ideal for blonde girls. That's how 2D build-up on hairs looks impressive and expressive, strong and quite long by nature. The look is very penetrating, with a slight "cunning".

Eyelash extensions are a great option for every girl who wants to always look great without using mascara.

The main thing is to choose the right extension technology together with the master.
