The Ultimate Lash Curl Guide: B, C, CC, D, L+, and M – How to Choose the Best Curl for Your Clients

Understanding Lash Curls: What Sets Them Apart?

Choosing the right lash curl is essential for achieving a flattering, customized lash look for each client. With so many curl types available, it can be challenging to decide which one to use. At EBL, we offer B, C, CC, D, L+, and M curls, each designed to enhance different eye shapes and styles. This guide will break down the differences and help you select the perfect curl for every client.

B Curl: The Softest, Most Natural Curl

B Curl offers the least amount of lift, making it ideal for clients who want the most subtle lash enhancement.

Best For:

• Clients with naturally curled lashes who want a slight boost

• Achieving an ultra-natural look

• Blending with C Curl for a soft, barely-there effect

C Curl: The Natural Lift

C Curl is perfect for clients who want a subtle enhancement, as it mimics the look of natural lashes that have been gently curled with an eyelash curler.

Best For:

• Clients who prefer a more natural lash appearance

• Those with slightly curled or straight natural lashes

• Everyday, effortless lash looks

Pro Tip:

C Curl blends beautifully with CC Curl to create a natural but slightly enhanced lash line.

CC Curl: The Go-To, Most Popular Curl

CC Curl is the most popular and versatile lash curl, making it the go-to choice for many lash artists. It offers more lift than C Curl but isn’t as dramatic as D Curl, making it an ideal middle-ground curl that works for a variety of clients. CC Curl blends effortlessly with C, D, M, and L+ Curls, allowing for customized lash designs.

Best For:

• Clients who want a noticeable curl without too much drama

• Those with straight or slightly downward-growing natural lashes

• Blending seamlessly with C, D, M, and L+ Curls to create a customized lash look

D Curl: The Dramatic, Eye-Opening Curl

D Curl is one of the most dramatic curls, offering a bold, lifted effect that enhances the eyes significantly. It works well for clients who love a glamorous, high-impact look.

Best For:

• Clients who desire a noticeable, dramatic lash look

• Deep-set or hooded eyes that need an extra lift

• Special occasions and dramatic makeup styles

Important Consideration:

When using D Curl, avoid applying it on clients with larger or very open eyes, as it can make their eyes appear even more exaggerated. Instead, use CC Curl on the inner corners to create a more balanced effect.

L+ Curl: The Ultimate Lift for Straight Lashes

L+ Curl features a straight base that transitions into a sharp upward lift, making it perfect for clients with straight or downward-growing lashes.

Best For:

• Clients with straight or downward-pointing natural lashes

• Creating a lifting effect without excessive curl

• Lash artists looking for a unique, eye-enhancing shape

M Curl: The Unique, Flattering Lift

EBL’s M Curl is different from most M curls on the market. It features a straight base that curves upward into a beautiful lifting curl, creating a stunning open-eye effect without excessive drama.

Best For:

• Clients with straight or downward-growing natural lashes

• Those who want a lifted look without the extreme curl of a D Curl

• Custom lash maps that mix M Curl with C and CC Curls for added depth

Why Lash Artists Love It:

Unlike traditional M Curls, EBL’s version offers a seamless blend with C and CC Curls, allowing for a more natural transition while still providing noticeable lift.

How to Mix Curls for the Best Results

To create a well-balanced lash set, consider blending different curls for depth and dimension:

• B + C Curl: A soft enhancement for natural-looking volume

• C + CC Curl: A natural-to-lifted transition for a balanced look

• D + CC Curl: A bold, dramatic look with a more natural inner corner transition

• L+ + CC Curl: A striking lift with a natural transition for clients with straight lashes

• M + C Curl: A lifted yet balanced effect that flatters most eye shapes

Final Thoughts: Choosing the Right Curl for Your Clients

Selecting the right lash curl is essential for customizing each set to your client’s eye shape and preferences. Whether you want a subtle lift with B Curl, a natural enhancement with C Curl, an ultra-glamorous effect with D Curl, a beautifully lifting shape with M Curl, or a unique lift with L+ Curl, EBL has the perfect lash curl for you.
