Hey, I’m Kirsten, your trusted lash technician in Cape Town, souther suburbs… and I know that choosing the right eyelash extensions can sometimes feel a little overwhelming, but I’m here to help you learn how to choose the right lash extensions for you.
So lets jump in an get to know which set will be perfect for you!
Types of eyelash extensions to choose from
Whether you’re just looking for a slight natural enhancement, wanting to go full-on glamour or needing something in between… I’ll guide you through the differences between Classic, Hybrid, and Volume lash extensions so you can make the best choice for your style and lifestyle.
Classic Eyelash Extensions: The Natural Beauty
If you love the idea of not needing to wear mascara and simply enhancing your natural lashes, while keeping them subtle and elegant… Then Classic eyelash extensions are the way to go.
Classic lashes are applied on a one-to-one ratio, meaning one extension is attached to each natural lash.
This creates a beautifully natural yet defined look without being overly dramatic.
I specialize in Classic eyelash extensions in Cape Town, providing a lightweight and comfortable set that gives you just the right amount of lift and length without overpowering your natural beauty.
Classic eyelashes are best for:
- Clients who want a soft, everyday enhancement
- Those with naturally full lashes who just want added length
- A low-maintenance option that blends seamlessly
Pricing of Classic lashes.
Pricing may vary depending on where you go. See here for my lash extension prices.
Applying time for classic lash extensions:
Applying Classic lashes can also vary on who you go to and how long they have been doing lashes for… With me this usually takes around 1hr 15min.
Hybrid Eyelash Extensions: The Best of Both
For those who want a bit more volume than Classic lashes but not as dramatic as full Volume lashes, Hybrid is the perfect balance. Hybrid lashes are a mix of Classic and Volume techniques, offering both definition and a bit of fullness without looking too heavy.
With Hybrid eyelash extensions in Cape Town, I customize the perfect balance of Classic and Volume to enhance your eyes while keeping a soft, fluttery effect.
Hybrid eyelashes are best for:
- Clients who want a bit more volume but still prefer a natural look
- Those with sparse lashes who want to fill in gaps
- A versatile option suitable for both everyday wear and special occasions
Pricing of Hybrid lashes:
Again, this may vary depending on where you go. See here for my lash extension prices.
Applying time for Hybrid lash extensions:
Usually takes around 1hr 30min.
Volume Eyelash Extensions: A More Glam Effect
If you love a larger, fuller lashes look, then Volume lash extensions are for you! Instead of applying just one extension per natural lash, I use a technique where I fan out multiple ultra-lightweight extensions and attach them to a single natural lash.
This creates a more bold, eye-catching look.
Volume eyelashes are best for:
- Clients who love a bold, glamorous appearance
- Those with naturally sparse lashes who want extra fullness
- Brides, special events, or those who always want to stand out
My Volume eyelash extensions in Cape Town are customized to match your desired fullness while ensuring they remain comfortable and longer lasting.

Applying time for Volume lash extensions:
Applying Hybrid eyelash extensions in Cape Town usually takes around 1hr 30. I will apply a perfect balance of volume lashes to enhance your eyes with beautiful full lashes.
How to Choose the Right Lash Extensions
Now that you know the difference between Classic, Hybrid, and Volume lashes, how do you choose?
Here’s my advice:
- Go for Classic if you love a soft, natural look or if you’re new to lashes, try classic first and then go from there.
- Choose Hybrid if you want a mix of bold, beautiful lashes with a more natural look.
- Opt for Volume if you want full lashes that stand out beautifully.
