In a nutshell, Hybrid Lashes combine Classic Lashes with Volume Lashes. Typically, a Hybrid lash set is thought of as a 50/50 mix of Classic lash extensions and Volume lash fans, but there are endless ways to customise them based on your client’s desired look and their natural lash condition. If you’re curious about the ins and outs of hybrid lashes before diving into which products to stock up on, check out these blog posts first:

Applying Hybrid lashes can be as simple or as intricate as you want. We’re here to break it down without overwhelming you. Start with the basics: go for 0.15 Classic eyelashes and 0.07 Volume lashes to create eyelash fans up to 5D. If you're aiming for a lighter look, use 0.10 lashes for both your Classic lashes and 2D Volume lash fans. For a bolder effect, try Mega Volume lash extensions in 0.05 by creating fans up to 9D, paired with 0.20 Flat Lashes.
DID YOU KNOW? Flat Lashes are made by fusing two finer lashes, giving them the appearance of a thicker Classic lash but with half the weight. This allows you to create striking lash looks without risking the health of your clients' lashes!
If you’ve already found a Eyelash Extension Glue that you love, stick with it for your Hybrid lashes. Just keep in mind that if you're new to Volume lashes, applying them can take a bit longer than Classic lashes. If you’re still mastering Volume lashes, consider using a slower-curing lash adhesive for the Volume fans or tweaking your humidity settings—raise it while applying classic lashes and lower it when working with volume fans.
TOP TIP: When applying a Hybrid set, start with your Classic lashes. Then, use a piece of tape to hold them back while you apply the Volume fans. This helps you achieve full coverage and prevents your extensions from sticking together.
If you’re working on Hybrid lashes, you probably already have Tweezers you prefer for Classic and Volume lashes. If not, you can explore our Classic lash tweezers here and Volume lash tweezers here.

They’re great for both classic lashes and quick 2D fans, and they’re ideal for working with easy fan lashes, pre-made fans, or even very short lashes due to their fine tips.
