My Favourite Way to Create a Volume Fan!

There are many ways in which you can create volume fans for lash extensions! In this blog, I will discuss my favourite way to create a volume fan! My advice to every new and upcoming extension artist is to find the technique that works best for you! The key in creating consistent fans is PRACTICE! This method is known for many names, including but not limited to, The Lonely Fan, The Lash Strip Method, Isolated Fan Method, etc.

Steps to Creating a Volume Fan

Step 1: Using your tweezers, grab a hold of the desired amount of lashes you want to make a fan with. If you want to make a 2D fan, grab and isolate 2 lashes from the strip. If you want to make a 3D fan, grab and isolate 3 lashes from the strip, and so on.

Step 2: Grab the lashes and place the lashes on the lash stripe. For this technique to work efficiently, you need the strip to have some tackiness! If the strip is too sticky or not sticky enough, it will be harder to create your fan.

Step 3: Use the tip of your tweezer to slowly separate the lashes at the base of the strip. Adjust the pressure of your tweezers accordingly.

Step 4: Once you have created a fan with even spacing between the lashes, slowly grab the whole fan near the middle to lower part of the fan.

Step 5: Dip the base of the fan into your desired adhesive, and VOILA, you have created a fan!

Keep in mind, this is only ONE technique to create your volume fan. I found this the easiest for me, and it's the technique I use to create all my volume fans!
