Interested to learn how to work on this case? Here we tell you everything you need to know about a lash lift for straight lashes!

What Are Straight Lashes?

A lot of Asian clients experience straight and more downward lashes than other ethnicities. They also tend to be poker straight and often point straight down, which makes them difficult to curl.

A 2006 study found that these lashes typically have lower curl-up and lift-up angles, fewer numbers, and thicker transverse diameters. These features make Asian clients’ lashes quite unique in terms of both texture and appearance. 

Does Lash Lift Work on Straight Lashes?

A lash lift on straight lashes is a great way to accentuate the natural eyelashes and get that coveted open-eyed look. But it is important to do it right to achieve the best results.

It is a common misconception among many Asians that their lashes can’t be long at all due to the way they grow. But lengthening and lifting their lashes can help them achieve longer, fuller, natural-looking lashes.

Besides thinner, shorter, and sparser eyelashes, Asians also generally have monolid eyes, which is a single eyelid lacking a crease or folds. So, when doing a lash lift on straight lashes, you must factor in your client’s unique eye structure and choose the mapping accordingly. This will help you balance out your clients’ eyes and create a more natural-looking, bright-eyed look with voluminous lashes.

When providing a lash lift service for straight eyes, you also need to lift the lashes from the eye line. Your clients cannot normally do this with an eyelash curler as it curls the eyelashes from further down the hair shaft. When using an eyelash curler, people are often afraid of going too near the eye line. This makes them crimp their eyelashes slightly into a V shape. 

A lash lift on straight lashes service lifts your clients’ lashes evenly and gives them a pretty C-shape.

The best part about a lash lift for Asians is that they usually don’t shed hair as quickly as other ethnicities. So, compared to the usual four to six weeks, your Asian clients can go eight weeks or more without getting a lash lift again. This helps them save more time and money and increases their satisfaction and value for money!

Should You Combine Lash Lift and Tint on Straight Lashes?

If you wish to make your Asian clients’ lashes appear darker and longer, you should combine a lash lift and tint straight lashes service.

Although a lash tint delivers better results and looks more dramatic with lighter eyelashes, straight lashes can still go for this beauty treatment. It has a beautiful effect on eyelashes that are naturally brown or lighter rather than black.
