Why are MINK eyelashes—made from mink—considered such high-quality eyelashes and so highly valued?

        

You've surely heard of animals like minks.Even if you already know a lot about them, maybe we can shed some more light on them, which will help you get to know these animals better.

Minks live in the wild in small groups.Their habitat consists mainly of rivers, ponds, and lakes in the high mountains of Canada or in cold Scandinavia.It was in these regions that they were domesticated a very long time ago.The people there began raising them for their meat and warm fur.Wild minks are currently protected and may not be captured.

After many years of continuous research and crossbreeding, farmed minks provided good living conditions for the local population.Over the years, mink farming has expanded to other parts of the world.Today, there are very few such breeding facilities left, and the ones that do exist are located in Scandinavia or Canada.

Mink fur is highly prized among industry experts.In addition to Russian sables, it ranks very high—in second place, in fact—in terms of fur value.Mink fur, which comes in both soft and coarser varieties, is extremely durable.Mink fur consists of several layers, ranging from down to intermediate and guard hairs.Each one has its own length and distinctive shade.Only the Dark (black) variety has a uniform color throughout all sections of the hair.Eyelashes are also made from this very same hair, but more on that in a moment.

If anyone thinks that the hair is plucked from minks kept in cages, they are, of course, mistaken.
Tanned fur undergoes a depilation process in which a special patch is applied to the beautifully combed mink fur and then pulled off.These operations are performed by specially adapted machines.The spiny hair (the longest) and the intermediate hair (the medium-length hair) remain on the strips.These, in turn, are separated from one another, then sorted, and finally sent on for further processing. High temperatures are used to disinfect the hair.The right amount and temperature of steam cause the hair to take on a rounded shape similar to that of a natural human eyelash.

Due to the unique characteristics of mink fur—which develops as a result of the harsh living conditions in its naturally cold habitat—it becomes sufficiently water-resistant, durable, and hypoallergenic.Mink hair is very soft and durable.They have an undyed, naturally black color with a beautiful sheen.They are highly valued by both furriers and eyelash extension stylists. Many celebrities have already discovered the value of this hair—not only do they wear beautiful furs, but they also have eyelash extensions or enhancements..

Mink eyelashes look very natural.They can be used to extend natural eyelashes using a 2:1 or even a 3:1 ratio.
This natural hair is simply one-of-a-kind.This makes it a very valuable and fine type of hair.Does it therefore have the right to be an expensive product??Taking into account the unique characteristics of hair, its treatment, and its natural beauty—yes.Remember, though, that you're the one who decides what you want to wear.You always have a choice, so the decision is up to you.
