FAQs

Can I mix C and D curls in one set of extensions?

Yes. Mixing curls helps match natural lash directions and create a balanced, dimensional look across the lash line.

Which curl lasts longer, C or D?

There is no significant difference in retention between C and D curls; longevity depends more on application technique, adhesive, and aftercare.

Are C or D curls better for hooded eyes?

D curl is generally better for hooded eyes because its stronger lift helps open and enhance the eye area.
