What Are Mega Volume Lashes?
Unlike classic or even volume lashes, mega volume extensions use extremely fine lash extensions (typically 0.03-0.05mm in diameter) to create large, fluffy fans. These fans can contain anywhere from 6 to 16 individual extensions per natural lash, resulting in an ultra-full, dense, and dramatic appearance.
- Key Features of Mega Volume Lashes:
- Fullness: Mega volume lashes offer the densest lash line, perfect for clients who want an ultra-glamorous look.
- Lightweight Fans: The lightweight nature of the extensions ensures your natural lashes aren’t damaged despite the density.
- Customization: Lash artists can tailor the look to your preferences, whether you want a bold, dramatic effect or a softer glam vibe.
Mega volume lashes are ideal for special occasions, photoshoots, or anyone who loves a high-impact, attention-grabbing look.
How Do Mega Lashes Differ From Other Styles?
- Classic Lashes:
- Classic lashes involve a 1:1 ratio—one lash extension is applied to each natural lash. The result is natural and subtle compared to mega volume.
- Volume Lashes:
- Volume lashes use 2-6 lash extensions per natural lash, creating a fuller appearance but still less dramatic than mega volume.
- Mega Volume Lashes:
- These take volume to the next level with 6-16 lash extensions per natural lash, offering the ultimate bold look.

How to Keep Them Mega Looking Flawless?
Proper aftercare is essential to maintaining the longevity and appearance of your mega volume lashes. Here’s what you need to know:
The First 24-48 Hours:
- Avoid Water and Steam: The adhesive needs time to fully cure. Avoid washing your face, swimming, or exposing your lashes to steam from saunas or hot showers.
Daily Maintenance:
- Clean Your Lashes Regularly:
- Use an oil-free lash cleanser to remove dirt, oil, and makeup. Dirty lashes can lead to poor retention or even eye infections.
- Brush Them Daily:
- Use a clean spoolie brush to gently comb through your lashes. This helps to keep them fluffy and prevents fans from clumping together.
- Avoid Oil-Based Products:
- Oil-based makeup or skincare products can break down the lash adhesive, causing extensions to fall out faster.
What to Avoid Completely:
- Mascara and Eyeliner on Extensions: Using mascara on mega volume lashes is unnecessary and can ruin the fans. Instead, opt for eyeliner designed specifically for lash extensions.
- DIY Lash Removal: Always have your lash extensions professionally removed to avoid damaging your natural lashes.
