If a client wants dramatic looking eyelashes and currently has 6 mm long lashes, what lash length should be selected?

For a client seeking dramatic eyelashes, it's essential to select a lash length that significantly enhances their existing lashes while maintaining a balanced and natural appearance. Starting with the client's current 6 mm long lashes, selecting a length that is visibly longer will achieve the desired effect of drama and elevation.

Choosing a lash length in the range of 8 to 9 mm creates a noticeable contrast to the client’s natural 6 mm lashes. This length strikes a balance between the dramatic look they want and ensuring that the extensions do not compromise the health of their natural lashes. Longer lashes can emphasize the eyes beautifully without overwhelming them.

Going for lengths such as 10 to 12 mm could produce a more extreme effect, which might be too dramatic for some clients, especially if their natural lashes are comparatively shorter. Therefore, 8 to 9 mm is an ideal recommendation for achieving the requested dramatic look while still being mindful of the overall aesthetic. This choice also helps prevent issues like discomfort or potential damage to the natural lashes that can happen with excessively long extensions.
