However, to apply your one-of-a-kind artistic interpretation, you must first have a solid foundation of eyelash extension knowledge.


In this article, we’ll discuss the difference between D vs J curl eyelash extensions! In addition, we’ll help you determine how to choose the lash the best fits your client’s eye shape and needs.

Grab your eyelash extension kit because it’s time to lash!

D vs J Curl: Which is Better for Your Client?

D Curl

This eyelash extension puts the ‘D’ in Diva! These sassy lashes create a dramatic, open-eyed appearance that is sought after by many clients. The D curl eyelash extension provides the most lift and curl for a striking eyelash. Even more, these lashes are perfect for clients with downturned eyes! Place a few at the outer corner of the eye to create the allusion of an alert and vibrant eye. You can opt for a Classic D curl or a Volume D curl lash for a bit more drama!

Quick and Dirty: Get the most bang for your buck! These lashes don’t disappoint in the lift or curl department.

J Curl

Lash artists, do you have a client who wants volume without the extra curl? J curl lash extensions are the perfect alternative! J Curl lashes add length and volume without the curliness of a D curl lash. Overall, this lash is a beautiful and distinctive shape for clients that want a natural set of lashes. However, be wary of clients with downward facing lashes. The J Curl may overexaggerate this feature creating the appearance of closed, sleepy morning eyes. In this case, it may be appropriate to consider B or C curl eyelash extension.

Quick and Dirty: The J Curl eyelash extension provides the least amount of curl of all of the lash shapes. Add volume and length without an intense curl!
