4D - 0.05mm	6D - 0.05mm	9D - 0.05mm	12D - 0.05mm	15D - 0.05mm
11D - 0.03mm	17D - 0.03mm	25D - 0.03mm	36D - 0.03mm**	44D - 0.03mm**

 

**Not recommended. Even though this is the fan's comparable weight, the fan's base gets really chunky and can be uncomfortable for the client and won't look as esthetically pleasing. 

Remember, the length of the fan can add lot of weight as well. You generally want to keep the length of the fan 2-3mm or less longer than the natural lash. Applying a fan or extension that is too heavy or long for the natural lash will cause the natural lash to twist and could cause damage and premature shedding.
