Whether a newbie or a seasoned lash artist, you must have known Kim K eyelash extensions. They are considered one of the most popular lash extension techniques among lash enthusiasts. Therefore, if your clients want to add volume, length, and definition to the lash set but can’t make up their minds on a particular lash style, Kim K Lashes is the top recommendation.
1. What are Kim K eyelash extensions?
Kim Kardashian is a famous American public figure who is also known for her strikingly beautiful and dramatic lashes. Kim’s outstanding lashes have set the trend in the lash world, creating a unique lash style called Kim Kardashian lashes – or Kim K lashes for short.
Kim K eyelash extensions are characterized by spiky lashes that are perfectly spaced apart with volume lashes in between. In other words, Kim K lash set is a mixture of classic lashes and Russian volume lashes and often appears thicker and longer than others, voluminous but still soft, which really makes your eyes pop. Therefore, Kim K lashes are also known as wispy hybrid eyelash extensions.
Kim K style is applied in a “V” shape – features longer lash strands in the inner corners that gradually become shorter toward the outer corners. This is similar to a cat eye lash look that enhances the shape and definition of the eyes.
2. Who should get Kim K lashes?
Thanks to the full and fluffy effect they bring to your face, anyone who wants to enhance their eyes with more length and volume can apply Kim K lashes. Especially for those who have small eyes or high-set eyebrows, this would be a perfect choice.
In contrast, if your eyes are naturally round and big, downturned, and asymmetric, Kim K lashes might make your eyes look heavy and overdramatic.
3. How to apply Kim K eyelash extensions?
In fact, creating a Kim K lash set requires a higher level of skill than usual volume lashes. Just like any lash style, it’s better to start with a lash map. Mark the areas where you will apply the spikes with suitable lengths. Remember that the spikes should be distanced equally to ensure the lash set looks even, and the number of spikes should range from 7 to 10 strands in order not to overdo your lashes.
After having the spike stay on your lashes, it’s time to fill in the gaps! The volume lashes between spikes should be 1-3 mm shorter. For example, if the spikes you choose are 9 to 12 mm, the volume fans should be 7 to 11mm.
4. Caring for Kim K eyelash extensions
Like any lash extension style, Kim K eyelash extensions require a careful maintenance routine. Put all your effort into creating a perfect lash extension set, and then your clients keep coming back due to poor retention!
Therefore, it’s important to remind your clients to keep the lash set dry for 24-48 hours after application to let the adhesive cure completely. Keep in mind that whenever you wear extensions, be as gentle as possible. avoid excessive rubbing, water-proof mascara, oil-based products, and heat exposure. In addition, you can use a silk pillow and an eyelash extension protective mask while sleeping. Daily cleansing and regular touch-up appointments are highly recommended for right lash set upkeep.
