Promade fans consist of 2 to 20 eyelash extensions, each 0.03 mm to 0.07mm in thickness. These are used to create a volume lash sets. Traditionally, volume lash sets were only created using a specific technique called ‘Russian volume’. However, this advanced technique is very hard to learn and master, and takes a long time to perform during appointments. And so, premade fans (also known as promade fans) were born.

Promade fans come perfectly fanned out on a tray, so all you need to do is pick them up and apply them to your client’s natural lashes, just as you would with classic lashes.

They are very easy to use, so are great for lash artists who want to offer volume lashes, but haven’t completed a handmade Russian volume training yet. They’re also great for artists who simply want to cut down their lashing time so they can service more clients.

At Lash Jungle, we currently stock high-quality 3D to 14D promade fans in diameters of 0.03 to 0.07mm, in both single and mixed length trays. We offer a huge range, so that you can create absolutely ANY lash volume set your clients want – from hybrid, natural volume, and mega volume to Kim K wispy sets!

Promade fans have so many benefits!

They are great for clients who:

- Do not have the time to spend 2-3 hours on an eyelash extension appointment
- Have a bad back, are pregnant, or have another medical condition that means they cannot lie down for a long time

They’re also great for lash artists who:

- Are not trained in Russian volume lashes yet, but want to offer volume lashes to their clients
- Are trained in Russian volume lashes, but find these take too long during lash application
- Want to have perfect symmetrical fans and clean results
- Want to cut down their lashing time
- Want to attract more clients and increase their income
- Want to create different lash looks, ranging from hybrid to mega volume
- Want to offer more luxurious services, and be able to charge more per client

Promade fans are the newer generation of premade fans. Lash artists started calling them “Promade” because they resemble a handmade volume fan.

Compared to premade fans, promade fans are wider in appearance, have a thinner base and semi-shiny finish, and create a more natural, fluffier volume effect.

Best of all, promade fans come in variety of packaging options, such as Loose, Instant Setup, and XXL Eco Boxes, so you can find the most convenient and affordable option for you.

At Lash Jungle, we have promade fans available in many different types, such as Loose Promade fans, Instant Setup, and Promade fans XXL Eco Boxes. Essentially though, the fans inside are the same. They’re just in a different packaging and setup.

- Loose promade fans are our most economical option, though you will need a silicone pad to use them as they don’t come pre-lined for you.
- XXL Eco Boxes are the easiest to use, as the fans come perfectly laid out in a mega tray.
- With Instant Setup promade fans, the lash fans come attached to a clear fan strip. However, they are stacked on top of each other to save space. They are more affordable compared to XXL Eco Boxes, though you still need a silicone pad to use them.

Still not sure which one is the best for you? Read our blog to learn more.

Promade Fans do not damage natural lashes if applied correctly. As a lash artist, it’s important that you know how to distinguish natural lashes that are weak (short or fine), average (mid-thickness and length), and strong (thick or long) natural lashes. And choose the correct weight of volume fans that will not be too heavy for them. Please note Promade Fans weigh differently depending on their length, dimensions, and diameter.

Then how do you choose the right Promade Fans for your clients?
In terms of length, a general rule of thumb is to not apply extensions that are 30% longer than the natural lash. For this reason, we do not recommend using 14 or 15mm extensions on thin or short natural lashes.
Promade Fans at Lash Jungle come in so many different styles, 3D to 14D (or even higher), and when the dimensions are higher, such as with 10D fans (meaning 10 extensions stick together at the bottom), of course, they will weigh more than lower dimension fans.
However, the diameter is actually more important than the number of extensions. Promade Fans are made of diverse diameter from 0.03 (the thinnest) to 0.10 (the thickest). As you can expect, the lower the diameter, the lash will be lighter. So even if we make 14D with 0.03, it will still be lighter than one 0.15 classic lash. On the other hand, 0.10 lashes are thick (for Promade Fans), so the maximum dimensions you can use without damaging natural lashes would be 3D. If you're still unsure, you can refer to our safe lashing guide. We have provided a table so you can understand the weight of each style. But luckily for you, at Lash Jungle, we only stock Promade Fans that don’t exceed the weight of 0.18 classic lash, so you don’t need to worry!

If your clients are very concerned about their lash health, we recommend that you go for lower dimensions such as 3D or 4D, with lighter diameters, and short or mid-length extensions up to 12mm. Also, avoid lashing on baby (anagen) lashes and give them time to grow out. It’s also a good idea to suggest that your clients use a lash growth serum every night. This way, their lashes will stay healthy, and they will be able to continuously get lash extensions.

When applied correctly with the right lash adhesive for your environment and speed, Promade fans offer great retention and will last as long as normal classic lashes would last. Our Promade fans have a slim, tiny base that makes it easy to apply on any natural lashes without weighing them down.
Promade fans can be applied from anywhere on natural lashes, including the top, bottom, or side, it comes down to your preference. However, if a client has naturally curly lashes, attaching from the bottom would be ideal.
For better retention, we suggest you take time isolating each natural lash properly instead of attaching a fan to multiple lashes. As the natural lashes that were clumped together may cause poor retention as well as severe discomfort.
Another tip would be to not overuse lash adhesive at the base, especially when applying mega volume (10D and above) Promade fans. If you are a beginner, take your time and try to hold the lashes enough so that the adhesive would cure completely. We suggest you read our blog articles to get an idea of how to maximise lash retention.

No. It's a misconception that premade fans are exclusively for beginners or those not skilled enough to make their own fans. In fact, many experienced lash artists use premade fans to save time or achieve a consistent look that may be challenging to replicate by hand.

Some argue that promade fans offer less customisation than handmade fans. While it was once true, it's not anymore. Handmade fans do provide infinite customisation, but now, premade fans come in a vast variety of dimensions from 3D lashes to 14D lashes, curls, fan widths, wispy and spike lashes, and even coloured lashes. The sky's the limit! They can be mixed and matched to create a tailored look for each client. It’s important to consult with your client to find out which lash style suits them best.

Some believe promade fans look too fake or plasticky, resulting in an unnatural appearance and discomfort. However, this largely depends on the quality of the PBT material used in creating the fans. With a variety of materials available for eyelash extensions, low-quality ones may appear hard, stiff, and heavy. It’s important to choose promade fans from reputable brands with ample product reviews.

The standard method for creating hybrid lash sets is to mix half classic lashes or flat lashes with Promade fans. Start by applying thicker diameter lashes, such as 0.15 or 0.20 classic lashes, evenly spaced out. When about half of the natural lashes are covered, start applying volume fans to the remaining lashes. It's that simple! During infills, maintain the ratio by replacing the fallen-out lashes accordingly.

0.03: For mega volume sets (10D-14D or above)

0.03 diameter lashes are the thinnest lashes you can get. They’re so fine that we recommend you handle them really gently to prevent them from being bent or damaged. They’re best used to create mega volume sets, as they are super lightweight. In fact, 14D 0.03 lashes are lighter than one 0.15 classic lash!

0.05: For full volume sets (5D-10D)
0.05mm thickness lashes are perfect to create a full volume set. They are a bit thicker than 0.03, so are easier to handle, but still very lightweight. So, feel free to use these for 5D, 8D, or 10D volume lashes. 0.05 lashes result in a very full look that is soft and fluffy at the same time.

0.07 For light volume sets (3D-6D)
0.07 is the diameter most commonly used for creating light volume sets. Lash artists love 0.07 lashes, like 3D, 5D and 6D, as they’re very easy to use. Clients also love this diameter, because it creates a natural effect that is not too ‘out there’.
