Eyelash Extensions FAQ | Classic, Hybrid & Volume Lashes in Clapham

Welcome to London Volume Lash, a private lash studio in Clapham specialising in Classic, Hybrid and Volume eyelash extensions. With over 17 years of experience, I create personalised lash styles designed to suit your eye shape, natural lashes and desired look.

What are eyelash extensions?

Eyelash extensions are individual lightweight fibres applied to your natural lashes to enhance length, thickness and definition without the need for daily mascara. Each set is customissHOULD I HAVE THE fed depending on your natural lashes and the style you want to achieve.

What is the difference between Classic, Hybrid and Volume lashes?

Classic eyelash extensions
Classic lashes create the most natural mascara-like effect. One individual lash extension is applied to one natural lash, making them perfect for clients who want elegant definition while keeping a soft, natural appearance.

Hybrid eyelash extensions
Hybrid lashes combine Classic and Volume techniques to create a textured, fuller look. They are ideal for clients who want more volume than Classic lashes but still prefer a soft and balanced finish.

Volume lash extensions
Volume lashes create a fuller, darker and more glamorous effect by applying lightweight handmade fans to individual natural lashes. They can range from soft natural volume to a more dramatic look depending on your preference.

Are Volume lashes the same as Russian Volume lashes?

Russian Volume lashes are a popular technique used to create fuller lash looks using lightweight fans. Many clients search for “Russian Volume lashes” when looking for a fuller Volume eyelash extension style.

At London Volume Lash, your Volume set is customised to suit your natural lashes, eye shape and the final look you want — from soft volume to a more dramatic finish.

How long do eyelash extensions last?

Eyelash extensions usually last around 4–6 weeks with your natural lash growth cycle. To keep your lashes looking full and beautiful, regular infills are recommended approximately every 2–3 weeks.

How long does a lash appointment take?

Appointment times depend on the style you choose. A full set of eyelash extensions usually takes around 1.5–2.5 hours, allowing time for careful application and a personalised finish.

Are eyelash extensions safe for my natural lashes?

When applied correctly by an experienced lash technician, eyelash extensions should not damage your natural lashes. The correct length and weight are always chosen based on the condition of your own lashes.

Can I have eyelash extensions if I have sensitive eyes?

Many clients with sensitive eyes can still enjoy eyelash extensions, but it is important to discuss any previous reactions, allergies or concerns before your appointment.

During your consultation, we can talk through your needs and choose the most suitable lash style and products for you. If you have experienced sensitivity to lash products in the past, a patch test can be arranged before your full treatment.

Your comfort and safety are always a priority at London Volume Lash.

Are eyelash extension adhesives safe?

Professional eyelash extension adhesives are designed specifically for lash applications and are used by trained lash technicians following correct application techniques.

At London Volume Lash, I use professional-quality lash products and carefully select the appropriate adhesive based on each client’s needs. Your comfort and safety are always my priority.

How do I look after my lash extensions?

To help your lashes last longer:

• Keep lashes clean with a suitable lash cleanser
• Avoid oil-based products around the eyes
• Brush your lashes gently with a clean brush
• Avoid pulling or rubbing your extensions

Good aftercare helps maintain beautiful retention and keeps your lash extensions looking fresh.
