Do your clients want wispy Angel lashes, and are you dying to create them? Well… the time is now! A trend that is invading the eyelash extensions world is Angel lashes, and rightly so – who wouldn’t want gorgeous, wispy volume lashes?
What are Angel Lashes?
The term “angel lashes” evokes an image of feathery, voluminous, and fluttery lashes that seem to embody the celestial grace of heavenly beings. This trend encapsulates the very essence of angelic beings—airy, resplendent, and imbued with grace—who have long fascinated humans with their beauty and elegance.
The trend of angel lashes has gained prominence in the world of fashion and beauty in recent years, championed by makeup artists, beauty influencers, and celebrities. The goal is to enhance the eyes with lashes that appear longer, fuller, and lighter, akin to the wings of an angel. This trend celebrates the idea that lashes are like your personal canvas for self-expression, allowing you to change your look and ooze that glowing, otherworldly charm.
Angel lash extensions are often textured volume lash extensions with spikes. The angel set lashes can be customized to give you that delicate, natural look that feels as light as a feather. To achieve a gorgeous, airy, “angelic” finish, several (usually 4-5) incredibly light lash extension fibers are attached to each natural lash during the application procedure.
Who Are Angel Lashes Suitable For?
Angel lashes typically give a subtle cat-eye effect, and is extremely versatile. If your client has round, narrow, or almond eyes then angel lashes will most likely suit their eye shape. As these heavenly lashes can be customizable depending on what the client clients, this style will suit most clients.
Like squirrel lash sets, Angel eyelash extensions are quite versatile. We would suggest avoiding this styling on clients with wide-set eyes as these wispy eyelash extensions may give the appearance that their eyes are even further apart – stick with close-set or proportional eyes.
Angel lashes are perfect for clients who want a more lash set but with a bold finish. It’s the perfect happy medium between classic lash extensions and volume lashes. It caters to many clients as it gives the illusion of a classic set but with an extra oomph as we are adding more lashes per natural lash. This way of lash mapping also includes spikes – more commonly associated with the famous Kim K style.
How To Achieve Angel Lashes
To create a gorgeous set of Angel lashes you’ll need to build them up by creating an uneven top layer of lashes. We know this may seem a bit unconventional and goes against all of your Lash Tech instincts to try to keep everything looking even, but you’ll need to trust us because the end results will be worth it! For this heavenly set of lashes, we recommend that you use lash extensions like amorellelash volume lashes in lengths of 7 mm up to 10 mm, with eye-catching spikes for a textured wispy look. In order to create the texture required for the bottom and middle layers of lashes, we would suggest that you use 8 mm lashes for the bottom layer, 9 mm lashes for the middle layer, and for a wispy top layer, to use 10 mm lashes.
To create the lash spikes you need to complete this lash look, you should use lashes in a diameter of 0.05 – 0.07 to form wispy 2D lash fans. Apply some lash Primer to a microfibre eyelash brush and make sure you are dabbing away any excess. Brush through the tops of your lash extensions whilst they are still on the lash strip to keep the tips together and create the closed fans (spikes) we’re aiming for. One thing to keep in mind when you are applying the Primer to the tips of the eyelash extensions is if you over saturate the lash strip all the way to the base, it will have an impact on the drying time of your lash glue. This can throw your timings off during the treatment with the possibility of retention issues for the lash extensions.
A Special Technique
Angel lash set tend to stick around longer than your regular classic set. Why, you ask? Well, it’s all about this nifty technique called “wrapping.” Let us break it down for you.
You see, with your run-of-the-mill lashes, you’ve got one extension for each natural lash, it’s like a 1:1 match. There is no wrapping involved there; they just stick on one point of your lash. But with angel lashes, it’s a whole different story. They can kinda hug your natural lashes from all sides, thanks to this wrapping magic.
This, along with the fact that angel lashes are super lightweight, means they don’t bail out prematurely. They stick with your natural lashes throughout their growth cycle, so you don’t have to worry about them falling out too soon.
In conclusion, the angel lash trend has taken the beauty world by storm, offering a breathtakingly ethereal and graceful look that captivates admirers. With its delicate, fluttery appearance and the promise of a heavenly gaze, it’s no wonder that this trend has become a favorite among beauty enthusiasts.
Whether you opt for a natural everyday look or a bold statement, angel lash extensions have transformed the way we define beauty in the modern age. As you embark on your journey to achieve this celestial allure, remember to choose a skilled professional who can bring your vision to life and maintain the health of your natural lashes.
