Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use V-Shape and YY in the same set?

Yes. A refined technique is using YY lashes as the base layer for organic texture, then placing V-Shape fans at key points (outer corners, mid-lash) for defined wispy spikes. The result is a highly textured, natural-looking hybrid set.

Which is better for a first-time client?

YY Lashes. The result looks the most natural and is the least intimidating for clients new to extensions. V-Shape 3D is a close second for clients who want a slightly more defined look.

Which is better for retention on fine lashes?

YY Lashes at 0.05mm place the least mechanical stress on fine natural lashes. V-Shape 3D at 0.07mm is also very safe, but YY 0.05mm is the lightest option in the entire Swaniya range.

What is the main difference between V-Shape and YY Lashes?

V-Shape lashes are pre-made fans with a symmetrical V-base that create a uniform, polished wispy finish. YY Lashes are single strands with a Y-fork split at the tip that mimic natural lash texture for an organic, “born with it” look. Both require no hand-fanning.
