Three lash extension techniques at You Rêve Paris: classic (€90) — natural, discreet look; mixed (€110) — structured, defined effect; 3D volume (€130) — intense, glamorous gaze. Lasts 2-4 weeks, infills recommended every 2-3 weeks.
Classic (1-on-1): the elegance of natural
The classic technique involves applying one single extension per natural lash. It's the lightest and most respectful method for your natural lashes.
The look: visibly longer, fuller and more curled lashes — without any artificial effect. Our classic-lash clients are often told they look "rested" or "different" without anyone being able to pinpoint what changed. Ideal for:
- Daily wear: wake up ready, no mascara needed.
- Fragile lashes: the light application doesn't overload the natural lash.
- Understated looks: the ultimate "no-makeup makeup" effect.
Mixed (Hybrid): the perfect middle ground
The mixed technique (also called "hybrid") alternates individual lashes with small fans of 2-3 ultra-fine lashes. It's our most versatile technique.
The look: a more defined and structured gaze than classic, without reaching the intensity of volume. The fans create texture and dimension, while individual lashes provide a natural, even base. Perfect for:
- Special occasions: dressed up enough for photos, not too much for the office.
- Looks with character without tipping into spectacular.
3D Volume (Russian Volume): glamorous intensity
3D volume (or "Russian volume") involves applying handmade fans of 3 ultra-fine lashes (0.07mm) to a single natural lash. Each fan is crafted by hand by the esthetician during the session.
The look: a dense, deep, dramatic gaze. This is the queen technique for clients who want a "permanent false lash" effect. Ideal for:
- Looks that leave a mark: evenings, events, wedding photos.
- Sparse natural lashes: the volume compensates for missing density.
- Unapologetic glamour: you know your lashes are extraordinary — and everyone can see it.

Maintenance and lifespan
All lash extension techniques follow the same natural lash renewal cycle: you lose 2 to 5 natural lashes per day, and the extensions fall with them. This is a normal process, not a sign of poor quality.
To maintain an impeccable result, we recommend an infill every 2 to 3 weeks. The infill replaces fallen extensions — it's faster and more economical than a full new set.
💡 Our experts' tip: Avoid mascara on your extensions (especially waterproof), don't rub your eyes, and cleanse your lashes daily with a gentle cleanser. These 3 habits significantly extend longevity.
