What are YY Lashes?
YY lashes the newly designed volume lash extensions, these are YY-shaped lash extensions. With the development of the lash industry, YY lashes are becoming more and more popular, and nowadays YY lash extensions are the trendy lashes for clients to do lash extension applications.
YY lashes are ideal for your eyelash extension application, which can bridge the gap of classic lashes and volume lashes, and YY lashes are also premade fans, with a special YY shape.YY lashes are applied like a classic but create a volume effect which is wispy and spiky.
Each fan is made up of 4 lash strands which have a long base and fan out into two halves to create two Y shapes -
hence the name YY.
How do you apply YY Lashes?
When removing the lashes from the strip, grip the lash about half way (where the base splits into the YY shape). This should then keep the 4D fan intact and together before applying as you would a regular classic lash.
A 4D 0.07 YY Lash is approximately the equivalent weight to a 0.15 classic lash.
0.07 thickness = 0.04mg, 4D x 0.04mg = 0.16mg
0.15 thickness = 0.17mg

and now available in individual length boxes from 8-16mm.
APPLICATION:

intact is grabbing just before the base splits into the YY which you will see is about half way on the extension, then apply
as you would a classic extension.
Here are some tips to help you enjoy the YY lashes happily.
Use the right lash glue: And choose the right lash glue (special lash glue adhesive for lash extension application, rather than the regular lash glue), to lower the risk of allergies. It is necessary to do an allergy test before using the lash adhesive. And also don’t use too much lash glue, to avoid the clumpy lash look.
Not too heavy: Don’t apply too many YY lashes on your lashes, and YY lashes designed with different diameters can result in different thicknesses. Don’t apply too heavy YY lashes on your thin natural lashes, this will result in being overweight to add extra pressure to your lashes. The lighter the better.
Not too long: Please be serious about the lash length selection. Don’t expect too long YY lashes, that will result in some potential issues because too long YY lash fans will add extra weight. We recommend that you’d better choose the regular lengths, from 8mm to 10mm. Not too long, only 2-3mm longer than your real lashes.
Lash extensions aren’t the real lashes, so you’d better attach the YY lashes away from your skin, to avoid some
eyelash extension side effects, such as itching, redness, puffiness, etc.
