| Classic Lash Styling Guide
A quick, practical guide for choosing lash type, curl, thickness and mapping for Classic sets. Use this when selecting Silk, Flat, or Dark Chocolate trays.
|
1 — Pick your lash type
| Silk Lashes |
Soft, natural finish — perfect for everyday classic sets and natural clients. |
| Flat Lashes |
Darker, fuller look with less weight — ideal for clients who want a mascara-like effect. |
| Dark Chocolate Brown |
Warm, natural tone — great for fair-haired clients or a softer daylight look. |
2 — Choose the curl
C Curl
Natural lift — go-to for most eye shapes.
D Curl
Dramatic lift — best for downturned or deep-set eyes.
L Curl
Lift + length — hooded eyes & monolids.
M Curl
Modern lift — great for cat-eye or fox-eye shapes.
3 — Match the thickness
-
0.07mm — Feathery, flexible; use for very natural or lightweight classic sets.
-
0.10mm — Soft definition; good for fine natural lashes.
-
0.12–0.15mm — Most popular for Classic sets — balanced fullness and comfort.

FAQs
Which curl should I stock most?
C Curl — best-sellers and versatile for most clients. Keep a mix of 0.10–0.15mm thicknesses.
What thickness do beginners prefer?
Many beginners start with 0.12–0.15mm for easier pickup and visible results. 0.07mm is great for ultra-natural looks or volume techniques.
