How to Explain the Value of PBT Fiber Lashes to Your Clients?

When it comes to lash extensions, the raw materials used for the lashes themselves play a vital role in the make or break of the final look, feel and durability of the lashes. The time of using real animal fur or human hair for lash is long gone and synthetic fibers have become the standard in the lash industry – and among them is PBT fibers. But what exactly are PBT fiber lashes? And why is it the go-to-choice for high quality lash extensions? Let’s find out in this article.

I. What are PBT Fibers?

PBT stands for Polybutylene Terephthalate, a type of thermoplastic polyester. Originally developed for industrial use due to its strength and flexibility, PBT fibers have been used in different industries such as textile and engineering. Because of their versatility, PBT fibers have currently found a standing in the beauty industry, especially in the world of eyelash extensions.

Due to their lightweight nature, durability as well as adaptability, PBT fibers are ideal for creating lash styles that mimic the natural look and softness of real eyelashes, especially without the ethical concerns tied to animal-based and human-based lash materials.

At CharmLash, our lashes are entirely made of PBT fibers including Korean PBT fiber lashes and German PBT fiber lashes to ensure they’re of high quality and are comfortable for long wear. 

What are Korean PBT Fiber Lashes?

Korean PBT fiber lashes are made from high quality PBT fibers with advanced Korean lash technology. These synthetic fibers ensure lashes to be lightweight, soft, durable and able to hold curls for a longer time period even in humid conditions or high temperature. They’re safe for the skins and eyes and would definitely feel more natural and comfortable for long wear compared to other plastic fibers. 

What are German PBT Fiber Lashes?

German PBT fiber lashes are lashes crafted with top-tier German PBT fiber lash technology to ensure lashes of high quality and lightweight. For example, using the advanced German Hollow Technology, we designed our Velvet Mink lashes so they are 30-40% lighter than regular lashes.

II. 6 Benefits of PBT Fiber Lashes

1. Lightweight and Comfortable to Wear

One of the greatest benefits of PBT fibers for lash extensions is that they’re ultra-lightweight and featherlight. Eyelash extensions made of high quality PBT fibers can be attached to natural lashes without causing discomfort or irritation, making them a comfort for long wear.

2. Excellent Curl and Shape Retention

During manufacturing, these PBT fibers are heat-treated and manipulated in ways that the curls are shaped and designed for different styles and preferences that fit the general public. And due to their synthetic nature, these PBT fibers can minimize the need for frequent touch-ups.

3. Natural Look and Feel

Because of their versatility, at CharmLash, PBT fibers can be tapered long or short to create different lash materials – glossy, semi-matte and matte. Hence, they can be used to create different looks and styles – from bold, dramatic to natural, fluffy lash looks tailored to each client’s preferences.

4. Hypoallergenic and Safe for Sensitive Eyes

Unlike eyelashes made from animal fur or human hair, PBT fiber lashes are completely synthetic, which reduces the risk of any allergic reactions or irrigations – making it a perfect option for clients with sensitive eyes or skin, or for those that are after cruelty-free, vegan-friendly lash products.

5. Consistent Quality and Durability

Since our PBT fiber lashes are manufactured under strict quality control, they’re consistent in thickness, curls and lengths to ensure an easy, even application and high-end finish that last.

6. Flexible and Versatile for Different Techniques

Due to their strength and flexibility, PBT fibers are ideal for a variety of lash techniques — from classic lash sets to advanced volume and mega-volume styles. Lash technicians and lash artists can easily create perfect fans without lashes losing their shape/form and softness.
