Lash Fills vs Full Sets: How to Know What You Need Before You Book

Hey beauty — let’s talk booking 💕

One of the most common questions I get from new clients is:

“Do I need a full set or just a fill?”

And honestly — it’s a great question!

If you’re not sure what to book, don’t worry. I’ve got you covered.
Here’s exactly how to tell which service you need before scheduling your next lash appointment at GG Lash Co. in Oklahoma City.

💎 What’s a Full Set?

A full set is your starting point — it’s where I apply one extension (classic) or a fan of extensions (volume/hybrid) to every healthy natural lash.

Full sets are ideal for:

  • First-time lash clients

  • Clients returning after more than 4 weeks

  • Significant shedding or gaps

  • When you’re switching from another artist and need a clean slate

A full set usually takes 2–3 hours, depending on your desired look. It’s your foundation for those perfect, full, fluffy lashes.

💕 What’s a Fill?

A fill is a maintenance appointment where I remove grown-out extensions and replace shed lashes with new ones — keeping your set looking seamless and full.

Fills are ideal for:

  • Clients returning within 2–3 weeks

  • Sets that are at least 40–50% full

  • Maintaining shape, length, and style

At GG Lash Co., every fill includes:

  • Cleansing and prepping the lash line

  • Removing outgrown extensions

  • Perfecting direction and balance

  • Finishing with bonder + rinse for comfort

It’s like a mini refresh for your lashes — and it makes your investment last so much longer.

🌸 When You Might Need a Full Set Instead

If it’s been a while since your last appointment, or you’ve lost more than 50% of your lashes, it’s time for a new full set.
Here’s why:

Trying to fill a set that’s too grown out will never look (or feel) as flawless.
A fresh set ensures even weight distribution, balanced styling, and clean attachment for better retention.

I promise — you’ll notice the difference immediately.

🧖‍♀️ Lash Care Tip for Longer Fills

The cleaner your lashes, the longer your fills will last.
I recommend cleansing your lashes 2–3 times a week with a lash shampoo and using Ocusoft or Ocusoft Platinum if you prefer daily cleansing.

Clean lashes = better bonding + more even fills every time.

💬 Quick Reference Guide

First appointment ever - Full Set

It’s been 4+ weeks since your last fill - Most likely a Full Set

You’ve lost 50%+ of your extensions - Full Set

You just need a touch-up between 2–3 weeks - Fill

You want to switch from another artist - Some artists offer foreign fills or new client fills. Others you’ll need to book a removal and a full set.
