Wet-look lashes are lashes that look…wet, I suppose! It’s where we use volume lashes but not fanned out – so we apply spikes of 4-6 very thin lashes per natural lashes. It gives a look similar to classic but darker and denser. A little more adhesive is used than in normal volume, to keep the fan closed – which means the adhesion part is longer. They are a specialist set and only suitable for some lash types.
These lashes are great for those with thicker or stronger natural lashes, particularly if you have had retention problems in the past. This method does work well at keeping the lashes on for as long a time as possible. Some of our clients find they they offer improved retention (particularly those with oily hair/lashes).
If you have finer/weaker natural lashes or gaps in your lash line, this set is not generally suitable for you and we really recommend against it. They may twist more as growing out and your lashes may look gappy (as we don’t fan the lashes out, therefore can’t cover gaps in the lash line). You need a good amount of reasonably strong natural lashes for this set. If you have finer or weaker lashes and want a more textured look, Hybrid Sets offer a similar result.
NOTE: Unlike all of our other sets, wet-look lashes sometimes can’t be infilled more than a few times – sometimes we need to remove and start afresh. This is due to the way they applied making it a bit more difficult to remove grown-out lashes.
