What is better to choose - lamination or extension? This question is often asked girls that dream of long and dense eyelashes. Our today's material is devoted to the comparison of these two procedures: their characteristics, advantages and disadvantages are given the selection criteria, review reviews.
Features of procedures
In order to start a comparison, you should know what the features of each procedure and whether one alternative is different. Let's start with lamination.
- Eyelashes are stacked on a special roller, which forms their bending. Next, they are processed with a means, this bending is fixed, after which the composition with keratin is applied into the hairs. With it, the cilia becomes thicker, the eyelash row is visually thick. The last stage of lamination is staining and processing of hairs with nutritious vitamin composition on an oil basis.
- As you already understood, this procedure is aimed at making natural eyelashes more lush and noticeable. That is why it is best suited to those who have pretty thick and long eyelashes from nature. On rare and short hairs, the effect will not be so pronounced.
- By time, lamination takes about 1.5 hours.
Now let's talk about increasing.
- The essence of the eyelash extension procedure is in lengthening and increasing their volume By gluing artificial hairs to natural using a special adhesive substance. This is the main difference between lamination extension, which implies work exclusively with natural eyelashes.
- With the help of extension, you can visually change the shape of the eyes. , "Raise" the hung of the eyelid, make a look deeper and expressive. It is only necessary to choose the appropriate effect and the length of synthetic cilia, as well as to determine the volume.
- Extension is suitable for almost all However, the owners of thin and weakened eyelashes must first strengthen them, springing the course of vitamins for hair and nails. Nutritional masks from ragners of therapeutic herbs (chamomile, calendula), oils (castor, olive, grape seeds, coconut) do not prevent.
- The duration of the procedure is from 2 to 4 hours.
Criteria comparison
And now we will go on points and see what one procedure is different from the other.the effect
After lamination:
- Eyelashes will become thicker, dark and twisted, however, they will remain "their", will not seem artificial, doll;
- You can forget about the carcasses about 1.5-2 months - it is so much the effect of this procedure lasts;
- When the cilia is started to grow, it will not get into the eye: the laminating composition gradually mesters, the paint will sweep up, the curl straightened, and the seeling row is leveled.
But if a very good or inexperienced master was chosen, which also worked with not high-quality materials, something could go wrong. And the effect will be the next.
- The eyelashes will become hard and brittle, will begin to fall out.
- The violation of the procedure algorithm is able to lead to the fact that the entire fishing row will be disturbed, individual hairs will be stitching to the sides. Level this error will not work - it will have to wait for the revealation of new eyelashes.
If the hairs were originally short, after lamination they can be screwed into the ring, which looks strange and not particularly aesthetic. Thin and rare cilia will not be visually thick and more noticeable, they still have to tint.
What can we offer good extensions? Let's find out:
- Eyelashes will become magnificent, the look - expressive, will disappear the need for the use of a decorative carcass;
- Regardless of the time of year, day and weather conditions, your eyes will look equally well;
- The successfully selected effect and the volume will help you create the desired image, eliminate eye disadvantages and emphasize their advantages.
Of course, now we are talking about the quality work of a professional losheker. Inexperienced master can only spoil everything:
- Incorrectly selected leaf of artificial eyelashes and an inappropriate effect can make eyes visually less;
- Due to the use of poor-quality materials, cilia can be twisted, the integrity of the ciliary series will disturb, which will look ridiculous and cheap.
What can be concluded from the foregoing? The visual effect is more pronounced after extension, but if you are satisfied with the way your natural eyelashes look and just want to make them more noticeable, choose lamination.
Security
One of the main issues that are set by the clients to their masters-lossekers is how harmful is the procedure or another? We clarify this situation for you. Lamination of eyelashes is aimed at restoring their structure and improving the state. It is almost harmless, however, and he has contraindications:
- detection of an allergic reaction to the ingredients of the products used;
- Any surgical interventions in the eye, held shortly before the procedure;
- the presence of eye diseases, inflammatory processes;
- You should not laminate the eyelashes in the period of tooling the child and breastfeeding - this is not a direct contraindication, but it is desirable to refrain from the procedure.
Now let's talk about who can not build eyelashes:
- all of the above person, who is not allowed to do, and lamination;
- owners of weak and thin cilia - they simply will not withstand the weight of the artificial hairs and broken off or fall out altogether.
The rest of the ladies do, you can build and it is safe. Of course, provided good master selection and quality materials.
So what is more harmful? If we talk about quality procedures carried out, the none of them is able to cause a person harm. Should not believe those who say that because of the build-up starts to fall, natural lashes and so they fall out, because the life of a single hair - about 1.5-2 months, which coincides with the term of socks artificial elements. Eyelashes are not adhered to vellus hairs, and they quietly grow.
Lamination is also no need to be afraid. In the absence of the above contraindications, it will only make your natural lashes thicker and stronger, strengthen hair follicles and rods.
Price
The cost of lamination in a beauty salon ranges from 1,500 to 3,500 rubles. The total amount depends on the brand of the materials used, as well as the professionalism of the master. Eyelashes natural volume will cost about 1,000 rubles. The larger the volume, the higher the price. On it will also affect the presence / absence of additional elements: "Ray", rhinestones, poryshek, colored hairs. The largest amount - 6D - will cost you 3000-4000 rubles.
If we consider that the correction naraschonnyh eyelashes have to do more often (about once every 4 weeks), we can conclude that it ultimately be much more expensive lamination.
Subsequent care
Caring for eyelashes laminate in the first 24 hours after the procedure will be as follows:
- Although hair will look slightly sticky and oily, they can not wash - no water or by whatever other means, otherwise you will just wash away the laminating composition, and your money and time will be wasted;
- it is not necessary also to sleep, burying his face in the pillow, you can disrupt not quite fix the bend;
- refrain from visiting baths, saunas, solarium, beach, pool.
All these restrictions are only one day to be observed - in all the days that followed no special care is required! You can safely wash, swim and sunbathe, relax in the sauna and solarium, to sleep in whatever position you.
And how to care for naraschonnymi hairs? Here's a little more complicated:
- As in the previous case, in the first day following the procedure cilia wet forbidden to avoid dissolving the adhesive;
- week visit to exclude baths, saunas, do not sunbathe on the beach and in the solarium, do not swim in the sea and the pool;
- Learn to sleep either on your back, or on my side, otherwise synthetic hairs can deform;
- Stop using an eye cream around the eye containing any oily components: they dissolve the adhesive and may cause premature loss of cilia;
- Daily in the morning and in the evening, quench the hairs with silicone microcker, moving strictly bottom up the curls from their reverse side;
- Washing, use either baby soap, or micellar foam;
- Use a lounge towel, do not try your eyes, but do not waste.

Review reviews
If you read the reviews of those who tried both lamination and extension, you can make sure that Basically, those whose natural cilia and so good are expressed in favor of the first option. That is, there is a good length, and sufficient density. Their preference is clear: after lamination, after lamination become thicker, darker, seductive bending appears, plus they become stronger and stronger. The decorative decoration is not required by such eyelashes.
But the ladies who have in nature are inexpressible cilia choose the extension, which is very natural: There is no need to apply carcasses, eyelashes look great at any time of the day. With the help of extensive hairs, you can beautifully "pull out" the eye, giving it a almond-shaped form, "lift" the hanging eyelid, make a look more open. All visible difficulties of care cease to be such after wearing such cilias at least a couple of months.
