Easy fan lashes help trained lash artists create customized Volume and Mega Volume fans more efficiently. Their layered construction allows multiple lashes to spread into a fan as they are lifted from the strip, reducing the manual manipulation required during fan creation while leaving you in control of the width and base.
Our easy fanning lash trays are available in mixed lengths, 0.03, 0.05 and 0.07 diameters, and C, CC and D curls. Choose the combination that suits your technique and the density, texture and finish you want to create for your client.
Easy fan lashes—also known as easy fanning or blooming lashes—are individual lash extensions arranged in layered rows. A small amount of adhesive at the base helps keep the selected lashes together when they are lifted from the strip, while the tips spread to form a fan.
Unlike a finished premade fan, an easy fan is created at the point of pickup. This gives the lash artist more control over the number of extensions selected, the width of the fan and the shape of its base. The finished fan should always be appropriate for the strength and condition of the client’s natural lash.
Both options can help reduce the time required to create a Volume set, but they work differently. Easy fanning lashes remain as layered rows until the artist selects and lifts them. Premade fans arrive in a finished shape with a fixed number of lashes and a predetermined fan width.
| Lash type | How the fan is created | Level of customization | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Handmade Volume | The artist creates the entire fan manually | Highest | Artists confident in advanced fanning techniques |
| Easy fanning lashes | Layered lashes bloom during pickup | Flexible fan width and lash count | Artists who want a balance of speed and control |
| Premade fans | The fan arrives ready to apply | Fixed shape and lash count | Artists prioritizing consistent, ready-made fans |
If you prefer a ready-made option, explore our premade Volume lash fans and compare the available curls, lengths and fan sizes.
Mixed-length trays provide several popular lengths in one box, making it easier to build a complete lash map without purchasing a separate tray for every length. When selecting an easy fan lash mix, consider the style you create most often and the lengths you regularly use across the inner, middle and outer sections of the lash line.
The number of extensions used in each fan must be adjusted according to the chosen diameter and the condition of the natural lash. Lash artists should use their professional training to select a safe and appropriate weight for every client.

Tweezer shape and grip can affect how easily the lashes bloom during pickup. Explore our Volume and fanning tweezers to find a style suited to your preferred technique.
Retention depends on correct preparation, isolation, attachment and adhesive control as well as the lash extensions themselves. Your adhesive should match your working speed and the temperature and humidity in your treatment area. Use the London Lash glue chart to compare professional adhesives and their recommended working conditions.
No. Easy fan lashes spread into a fan when the artist picks them up from the layered strip, allowing the width and number of lashes to be adjusted. Premade fans are manufactured in a finished shape and are ready to apply.
They can make fan creation more accessible, but they must still be used by trained lash artists. Correct isolation, weight selection, adhesive control and attachment remain essential for a safe professional treatment.
Choose the diameter according to the desired fan size and the strength of the client’s natural lashes. A 0.07 diameter is generally used for fans containing fewer extensions, while 0.05 and 0.03 lashes can be used to create progressively fuller Volume effects. Always calculate and select an appropriate total fan weight.
Mixed trays contain several lash lengths in one box. They are a practical choice for artists who want to create complete lash maps or test different lengths before purchasing individual-length trays.
Yes. Ultra-fine diameters such as 0.03 and, depending on the fan size and natural lash, 0.05 can be used for Mega Volume styling. The final fan weight must always be suitable for the individual natural lash.
A smooth Volume or fanning tweezer with a reliable grip and comfortable tension is usually the most suitable choice. Because tweezer preference is personal, test the pickup and blooming action to find the tip shape that works best with your technique.
