How to use L curl lash extensions
What are L curl lash extensions?
L curl lash extensions have a lot of unique characteristics that distinguish them distinct from other lash curls. It starts flat but swiftly morphs into a C curl lift from the center of the extension to the tips, giving a very sophisticated L shape. This curl may be applied to every lash style, from classic to colossal volume, and it can be as natural-looking or extravagant as you desire.
L shape lash extensions are ideal for:
- People that have mono-lid eyes.
- People who have downward-pointing natural lashes.
- Mature people since it has a beautiful lifting look.
What eye shapes are suitable for L curl?
The very fact is that these are unique lashes with a flat base and a dramatic curl that shows from under the lid. It raises the lash line and gives the eyes a bright, vibrant appearance, perfect for small, hooded, almond, or mono-lid eye shapes.
L curl lash extensions are ideal for clients with hooded eyes, and those with eyelid folds that do not compliment their eye shape well (i.e., need to be disguised behind the lashes). The L curl is ideal for hooded eyes since the flat base extends out farther away from the upper lid so that the curl doesn't contact their brow bone as a D curl might.
The idea is to create as many contact points as possible between the natural lash base and the extensions. It will be easier to add the roots if the extension is extremely curly, but the natural lash is straight, leading to poor retention. L curl lashes have a unique curl, making them perfect for individuals with hooded lids for whom D curl isn't adequate.
- The application of volume lashes is perfect for monolid eyes. You can/should use the thickness of 0.05 and 0.07.
- L curl lash extensions are fantastic for lifting lashes and on clients with hooded eyes and creating an extreme cat-eye effect.
Curls in the L and L+ range are C or D curls with a flat foundation. L and L+ curls were created to provide people with hooded eyes, deep-set eyes, and mature people with drooping eyelids a wide-eyed look. L+ has a little bit more curvature than L curl lash extensions.
