One type that has gained traction in the industry is fanning lashes, which offer a fuller, more voluminous look compared to classic lashes or normal lashes. So, what exactly are fanning lashes and how do they differ from traditional extensions? In this blog, we will delve into the key differences between fanning lashes and classic lashes, exploring their benefits, application methods, aftercare, cost, and even training requirements. From fanning lashes vs normal lashes to hybrid vs fanning lashes, we will provide comprehensive information about fuller lashes that will help you make an informed decision when selecting your next set of lash extensions.

What are Easy Fanning Lashes?

Easy Fanning lashes are designed differently on the lash strip in the pack allowing easier multiple lash pickup.

There are three elements that are important

• Symmetry
• Space
• Body of fan
• Glue ZONE

Let’s get further details on what it really means:

Symmetry: The first element to think about is SYMMETRY. In this process the difference in each lash is equal. It is important to acknowledge that dependent on the size.

The SPACE: the space between the fuller lashes in a fan indicates if the fan is narrow, normal, or wide. Most importantly, if the opening of the fan is not symmetrical this can create a closed fan look. Moreover, Like a wonky appearance. For instance, If you were creating a 5d lash look, 3 lashes on the fan were closed. It will result in a gappy finish, rather than that gorgeous fluff we all aspire to.

BODY OF THE FAN. This should make up 2 thirds of your fan whereas the BASE OF THE FAN should form up to around 1 third.  Remember, the base of your fan should ALWAYS be tapered

GLUE ZONE: It is definitely an important element to give a fuller beautiful look. This is situated right at the base of the fan. It represents the 2mm section of the base that should be dipped into your glue!  Anything less than 2mm can cause retention problems.

There are different methods to get it done :

Lonely Fan Method

It’s one of the most commonly seen techniques and is ideal for beginners. The lonely fan method is about pulling the number of lashes that you want to make into a fan from the rest of the bunch. Moreover, You will further re-glue them along the strip. You then use the tip of your volume tweezers to roll the lashes outwards. It creates a beautiful fan.

Pick up the fan with control and a strong grip, dip it into the glue, and affix it to the natural lash.

Rainbow Method

The other name for this technique is the rolling technique. It is similar to the Lonely Fan method.

But in this technique instead of taking your selected lashes away from the group, You leave them there.

This method will create more of a ‘stacked’ base.

It is so great for attaching the fan to the side of the natural lash or classic lashes.

It is advised to use your tweezers to roll the lashes to the side and create a fan.

Pinching Method

All shiny things are not gold. Now, this method seems to be simple but it is very technical. One has to get the right shape. It requires specific attention to not end up with twisted bases. It is called the pinching method for a reason.

Start by taking the lashes that one wants from the strips.

place them between your thumb and index finger at the first knuckle in each by maintaining grip with your tweezers.

When the lash base is safely between your fingers.

It gently loosens your grip with the tweezers and at the same time pinch the base together with your thumb.

It is so important not to roll the base here.

This will twist the base and make your fan useless.
