Straight Lash Styling

by | Mar 2, 2017 | Lash Education, Students

Just like natural hair types, there are so many different types of lashes. Often times, styling a pair of poker-straight lashes can be difficult for beginners. We’ve got a few tips that will help you transform a flat pair of lashes to fabulous in one appointment.

The key to applying lash extensions to naturally straight lashes is choosing an appropriate curl that will adhere to the natural lash well. You’ll want to use a loose curl like a C or an L+ curl. The C curl works great because it’s looser than a D curl and will adhere better to a naturally straight lash. As the name implies, the C curl is a great choice for adding a dramatic curl that creates a glamorous eye-opening look.

The L+ curl is another great choice because it isn’t as ridged as an original L curl and has a soft curve. It has a straight base that connects with the natural lash and makes for a long lasting hold. Stay away from a tight curl like a D because the base will not adhere to the natural lash very well. We highly recommend using Lash Affair’s luxury silk extensions for quality lashes that are cruelty free.
