The Lash Style That Changes Your Whole Look



When most people think about lash extensions, they think Classic, Hybrid, or Volume. But that only tells us how full your lashes will be.

One of the biggest things that determines how your finished lashes actually look is your lash style or lash mapping.


The placement of different lash lengths across the eye can make your eyes look more open, lifted, elongated, soft, dramatic, or wispy. And the same lash style can look completely different from one person to another depending on your natural lashes and eye shape. At My Little Beautique, we don’t believe lashes should be one size fits all. Your lash artist can customize your set to complement your eyes and the look you’re going for.


Doll Eye

A Doll Eye style uses the longest lashes toward the center of the eye, with shorter lengths toward the inner and outer corners.

This creates a more open, bright and rounded appearance.

Doll Eye can be a great choice if you want your eyes to look bigger and more awake rather than elongated.

The vibe: Open • Bright • Feminine • Doll like


Cat Eye

A Cat Eye gradually increases the lash length toward the outer corner of the eye.

The result is a more elongated, lifted and sultry look.

But here’s something important: Cat Eye isn't automatically the best choice for everyone. Depending on your natural eye shape, putting too much length on the very outer corners can sometimes make the eyes appear more downturned rather than lifted.

Your lash artist may adjust the placement to give you that cat-eye effect while still flattering your natural eye shape.

The vibe: Elongated • Defined • Dramatic


Natural Eye

If you love that “my lashes, just better” look, a Natural Eye may be perfect.

Instead of dramatically changing the shape of the eye, the lengths follow the natural growth and shape of your lash line.

This creates a soft, balanced enhancement that works beautifully for everyday wear. And natural doesn't have to mean barely noticeable! You can still choose Classic, Hybrid or Volume depending on how much fullness you want.

The vibe: Soft • Effortless • Balanced • Everyday


Wispy

Wispy lashes are all about texture and dimension.

Instead of keeping every lash at a similar length, your lash artist incorporates strategically placed longer pieces often called spikes throughout the set.

This creates that fluffy, textured look that's become so popular.

Wispy styling can also be combined with other maps. You can have a Wispy Cat Eye, Wispy Doll Eye or Wispy Natural Eye.

The vibe: Fluffy • Textured • Trendy • Effortless


But Which Lash Style Is Best for You?

This is where customization matters.

The inspiration picture you bring in is a great starting point, but your lash artist will also consider:

  • Your natural eye shape

  • The direction your natural lashes grow

  • Your natural lash length and strength

  • Whether your eyes are hooded, almond, round, upturned or downturned

  • How much fullness you want

  • Whether you prefer a natural or dramatic result

  • The curl that will best complement your eyes

Two clients can ask for the exact same lash map and end up with completely different results and that's completely normal.


Don't Forget About Curl

Style and curl work together.

A softer curl can create a more relaxed, natural effect, while a stronger curl can make the lashes appear more lifted and dramatic.

At My Little Beautique, we offer different curls so your artist can choose what works best with your natural lashes, eye shape and desired result.

The goal isn't simply to give everyone the curliest or longest lashes possible.

It's to create lashes that look beautiful on YOU.


Classic, Hybrid or Volume?

Once you've chosen the overall style, we can customize the fullness.

Classic gives you a clean, natural mascara like effect.

Hybrid combines Classic lashes with Volume fans for a little more fullness and texture.

Volume creates a fuller, fluffier look using lightweight handmade fans.

And any of these can be customized into a Doll, Cat, Natural or Wispy style.


Your Lashes, Customized.

Not sure what to book? That's okay!

Bring us inspiration pictures and tell your lash artist what you love and even what you don't love. We'll help customize your lash length, curl, fullness and style to create a set that works with your natural lashes and complements your eyes.

Because the best lash set isn't the one that looks good on everyone. It's the one that looks good on you.
