Lash mapping is an important and useful tool when used during an eyelash extension treatment
With the use of lash mapping you are able to offer your clients a range of different styles and make the style bespoke to their eye shapes and preferences
A lash map is a bespoke template which guides the technician where to place the length of each lash across the lash line to achieve different looks, whether your client has requested a natural or more glamorous look. Lash mapping is also important to use when you are working with different eye shapes to enhance and balance
All you need to be able to map your sets is a pen and some gel lash pads! You simply draw different sections of lengths and curls on the pads and off you lash! Ensure that you draw your map after cleansing and priming, or else this could smudge your markings. Some lash technicians prefer to use a coloured pen, rather than black so it can be seen clearer amongst the lashes
2 Some ‘ready-made’ lash map templates are available to buy online, we wouldn’t advise using these as there is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to eyes. You will achieve a much better look when you hand draw your own map on the gel lash pads
POPULAR LASHMAPPING STYLES: Natural: This style is the most traditional for eyelash mapping. It follows contours of your original length but just longer. This is the right style to choose for someone who wants a natural look, if they want something a bit more glamorous, this isn’t the one to choose! Open Eye: This style accentuates the centre of the eye by adding length toward the centre of the lash line, tapering down at each end creating a symmetrical graduation. The perfect choice to open up narrow shaped eyes
3 Cat eye: This is a great choice for a more glam look. The lashesbegin at the inner corner at their shortest length and gradually getlonger toward the outer corner. The difference in length is around50% more by the time we reach the outer corner, this gives theappearance of a flick at the ends
Baby Doll: This style is a cross between the natural and an openeye style The Doll Eye is a full look which is created by length rightacross the eyeline with the longest lashes being focused on themiddle of the eye
Squirrel: This look is created by starting short and gradually get-ting longer with the halfway point being the longest length andthen gradually getting shorter again
Kim-K: This is one of the most popular lash styles. The Kim K lookinvolves placing ‘spikes’ (longer lengths) in different sections of theeye to create a wispy set
4 EYE SHAPES ANDBEST SUITEDMAPPING Being a lash technician, you will know that every client has different shaped eyes and we need to create a look that best suits them
Here are some eye shapes that you may come across and what lash mapping you can do to best enhance and balance that shape: Almond eyes This eye shape is considered the most proportionate eye shape
Almond eyes can support nearly any lash map styling
Hooded eyelids When working with hooded eyelids you will need a map to open the eye. The most flattering is to have longer lengths in the middle of the eye. Be mindful of which curl you use, so that it doesn’t curl back into the lid. Suggestion - Open eye, squirrel eye or doll eye Rounded eyes When working with eyes that are a round shape, going for a less curl on the lash is better and placing the longer lengths towards the outer edge of the eye can create more of an almond shape
If the wrong map was used, it could give your clients a surprised expression!. Suggestion - Cat eye, Kim K eye or squirrel eye Downturned eyes This eye shape points downwards at the outer edges and need volume on the outside to create a lift and flick appearance, this will help to balance the shape of the eye. Suggestion - Cat eye or squirrel Close set eyes This is where the spacing between these are eyes is less than one eye space apart. Attention needs to be drawn towards the outer corners of this style to help balance the look. Suggestion - Cat eye or squirrel eye Deep set eyes These are eyes that are set back in the eye sockets, so these eyes require a styling that will bring the eye out. You will need to again be mindful of the lengths and curls that you use so that they don’t irritate the clients eyelids, this will be different form client to client
Suggestion - Open eye or Doll eye5 Single lid eyes This eye shape is most common in Asian women. Generally the natural lashes are straighter so going for a lash curl that has flare will be more dramatic. Try to match the curl as closely as you can to enhance retention whilst still giving drama. Suggestion - Cat eye, squirrel eye or Doll eye Protruding eyes You should try and maintain shorter length lashes when working on protruding eyes, avoid long lengths. Suggestion – Shorter lengths and assess the general shape as well as the protrusionCHOOSING THECORRECT LASHES The length of the eyelash extensions that you choose will deter- mine what kind of look you want to achieve
You will need to be mindful of the clients eye shape and length of their natural lashes. Never apply lashes that are 50% longer than the clients natural lashes
Also take a look at the thickness of the clients natural lash, clients with very fine lashes would need to have extensions applied that are closer to the natural length. The thickness of the extension should also be altered for fine lashes, using a 0.15mm thickness is more preferred over a 0.2mm thickness for example
Follow the mapping guide to see where the lengths go, your maps will differ from client to client in lengths but they will be ascending and descending at the same points
Remember, you length you choose, may not always be a longer length extension that the clients natural lash when you are creat- ing a new lash line style. More volume can be added with shorter length lashes and longer length may not always look better on your client
One more thing to bear in mind is if your client wears glasses, it will drive them crazy if they brush against the lens on every blink! The curl of the lash will determine the look. Take into consideration the look you are trying to achieve and the shape and size of the eye, eyelid and brow
6 DIFFERENT LASH CURLS DIFFERENT LASH THICKNESS DIFFERENT LASH LENGTHSMAPPINGPROCEDURE 1. Carry out a consultation with your client to find out what type of look they want to achieve. Educating your clients on the names and looks of styles can be helpful to both your client and yourself. Look at the clients eye shape and size to help you choose your mapping style
2. Cleanse your clients eye area and apply the gel lash pads, ensuring all bottom lashes are held down out of the way
Always apply pads a little way away from the waterline. Use a little bit of tape over the top of your pad if needed to better fit the eye and cover bottom lashes
3. If you need to apply a primer, do this before marking your map as it could smudge your markings
4. With a pen (coloured is preferable) mark your sections and write your lengths using your chosen map style. Sections and lengths may differ slightly in size due to your clients eye shape and size
5. Isolate and start applying your lashes, giving enough space and time for drying and to avoid clumping
7 6. Fill the lash line until your set is complete
7. Ensure your glue is dry before asking the client to open their eyes, using a fan or similar
8. Show your client their wonderful bespoke set
9. Fill out record card. Note down which lash map style you used and the length, thickness and curl, so you are ready for infills
AFTER-CARE 1. Don’t let lashes get wet for at least 24 hours 2. Brush and cleanse lashes daily 3. Avoid oily products on or around the eye area 4. Do not pick or pull at your lashes 5. Have regular infills every 2-3 weeks
