1. What are mega volume lash extensions?
Mega volume lash extensions are a more dramatic, thicker, and longer version of volume lashes. When compared to other types of lash extensions, mega volume lashes can provide you with an ultra-dramatic lash look. To achieve a stunningly dramatic lash style for your makeup look, you can get a full set of mega lash extensions.
The mega volume set is achieved by creating a fan with a large number of very light and thin extensions. To achieve maximum fullness, each mega volume fan contains 6 to 20 extensions with diameters ranging from 0.03 to 0.05 mm lashes. However, 0.03 mm lashes are highly recommended to ensure that natural lashes are not overly stressed by their weight.
Mega volume eyelash extensions are ideal for special occasions or as a complement to a dramatic makeup look. They are not, however, the most versatile type of eyelash extensions, so if you prefer a more natural-looking lash enhancement, choose classics or hybrids instead.
2. Mega volume lash extensions vs Volume lash extensions
May some of you be confused by the definition of Mega volume and Volume. If you still wonder what makes mega volume and volume different, whether to choose volume vs mega volume lashes, we are here to help.
Mega volume lashes are significantly darker, thicker, and more dramatic than volume eyelash extensions. A full set of mega volume lash extensions is the secret weapon for making your lashes appear fuller, fluffier, and thicker. While volume lashes are the answer for how to volumize eyelashes naturally. The number of lash extensions used to create the fan and the diameter of the extensions in the fan is what distinguishes mega volume from traditional volume.
So, what diameter is used for a volume set? Generally, lash artists will use 0.07 mm lashes to create a fan with up to 5 lash extensions in a set of volume lash extensions. Meanwhile, what diameter is used for a mega volume set? Mega volume eyelash extensions allow you to apply 6 to 20 lash extensions with the diameter of .05 mm and .03 mm, on one natural lash. Now, that is absolute MEGA.
3. Who would be suitable for mega volume lash extensions?
Mega volume lash extensions are ideal for clients who prefer a lash look with extra fluffiness than the supernatural lash effect. Inaddition, since not every single lash can support the mega volume lash extension, lash artists need to perform a test before applying the mega lash extensions to clients.
Strong and healthy natural lashes are much better for bonding with fluffy mega volume lashes, as they adhere well without gaps. Whereas, ones with fine or damaged natural lashes will suit light volume lash extensions better than mega volume.
4. How to create mega volume fan eyelash extensions?
Before applying mega volume full set lashes, lash artists need to calculate weight and length of a fan compared to natural lash. Mega volume lashing does not mean gluing 20 lashes to a natural lash. Even when the thickness is 0.03! Lash artists should choose carefully which lashes would suit clients the best.
For thin and brittle natural lashes, lash extensions with a diameter of 0.10mm (for Classic) are recommended. This is the recommended mega volume fan when translated into a safe weight for mega volume lash fans:
1 of 0.10mm = 10D fan of 0.03mm.
For clients with natural lashes that can withstand the weight of 0.15mm for classic extensions, we recommend the following fan thickness and dimension for the mega volume fan:
1 of 0.15mm = 8D fan of 0.05mm = 19-20D fan of 0.03mm.
Because some clients with thicker natural lashes can handle 0.20mm for classic extension, we recommend the following fan thickness and dimension for the mega volume fan:
1 of 0.20mm = 17D fan (0.05mm) = 20D fan (0.03mm).
When it comes to lash length for a mega volume set, the general mapping technique works similarly, but avoid using lashes that are too long as this will create an overly heavy look on top of the dramatic mega volume. As a result, it may appear overly exaggerated, droopy, or even sad.
Besides calculating weight and length, lash artists also need to know how to make a lash fan and which method would be ideal for clients. There are 2 methods in creating mega volume lashes that need to be paid attention to, including: Pinching and Flower Bouquet.
Pinching Method:
The pinching method is a common and efficient volume lash application technique used by lash artists of all skill levels. The pinching method, as the name suggests, requires lash technicians to create a volume fan by pinching the base of the lash extensions into a fan shape with their fingers.
Pinching is an excellent way for new lash technicians to master mega volume techniques. This method is quicker and easier to make a mega volume full set than other volume lashing methods.
Flower Bouquet Method:
Flower bouquet is a popular application technique and suitable for both beginners and advanced lash artists. To do this technique, lash artists need to grab a huge number of lash off the strip. Then dip the tips into adhesive to make a fan shape.
It can be tricky to create mega volume lashes sometimes. And if you’re not sure how to make a fan properly, you can consider using premade fan lashes. These lashes would save you both money and time.
With CharmLash’s Premade fans, not only do you not need any additional training to start volume lashing, but you can also complete a set of long volume lash extensions in the same amount of time you’d need for a classic set.
5. How long does it take to make a mega volume lash extension set?
A full set of mega-volume eyelash extensions can take between 2 and 3 hours to apply. The length of the procedure is determined primarily by the number of natural eyelashes you have, but also by the skills and experience of the lash technician.

6. What is the price of a mega volume lash extension set?
In most salons, your mega volume set will cost between $250 and $300, with an additional infill costing between $90-$95.Mega volume extensions are the most expensive type of extensions available. This is primarily due to the fact that applying a mega volume lash set demands hours of practice and training, as well as a high level of expertise.
7. Are mega volume lash extensions safe to wear?
Sure, if applied by a trained and licensed lash technician. Mega volume extensions are the most complex lash extension technique, requiring a high level of expertise to apply in a way that does not damage the natural lash or cause discomfort.
This technique requires a large number of lash applied to a natural eyelash, therefore, lash artists need to ensure that the weight of these extensions isn’t too heavy. It’s critical that a lash technician accurately assesses the state of your natural eyelashes.
8. Common mistake when applying mega volume set
One of the common mistakes made due to inexperience is applying the extensions in such a way that they completely fill all of the natural lashes, regardless of the growth stage they are in. Applying mega volume fans to baby lashes (fine and short new lash growth) is the most common cause of damage to the client’s natural lashes.
The second mistake is improper isolation. Mega volume lashes are the most difficult to isolate because the lash line at the base becomes very thick. It is critical to ensure that a fan is only applied to one natural eyelash and that the lashes do not stick together.
Mega volume lash extensions offer a stunning and dramatic enhancement to your eyelashes. By using this technique, you can achieve the bold and glamorous look you desire. We have explored the definition, main benefits, application process, and mistakes to avoid for mega volume lashes, providing you with all the essential information you need.
