Quel est le style de cils le plus courant ? Styles d'extension de cils par forme d'yeux

You want a simple answer: which lash suits most clients. Yet there are so many lash extension styles, curls, maps, and terms. Here’s a clear, friendly guide to pick the right lash every time.

The most common lash style worldwide is Classic—one extension applied to each natural lash—for a clean, natural look that suits most eye shapes. Close runners-up: Hybrid (a mix of classic and volume) and Œil de chat (longer at the outer corner) for subtle lift and elongation.

what is the most common lash style: eyelash extension styles by eye shape

As a high-quality cil products manufacturer and exporter based in China, we work with beauty supply wholesalers, DTC brands, salons, and training academies every day. This article blends that first-hand view with simple, science-backed tips so you can choose the cils style that fits your client’s forme des yeux and brand look—without guesswork.

“A perfect extension de cils isn’t only long or bold. It balances the cils naturels line, curl, and map so the les yeux apparaissent brighter and more awake.”

Why is Classic still the most popular lash extension style?

Classic is a extension de cils method where you apply one extension per natural lash (often called 1:1, or “one of our lashes to one natural lash”). It’s fast to explain, easy to wear, and fits most work and school dress codes. A Classic cils set leaves the ligne des cils neat and defined—think “mascara, but better.”

Classic is also forgiving across forme des yeux. On yeux en amande ou un natural eye shape, the look blends seamlessly. On yeux ronds, a lash stylist can fine-tune length placement at the center of the eye ou coin externe to refine the shape. For buyers, Classic is the safest starter SKU because it meets the broadest demand and is often called the best lash extensions for everyday natural beauty.

Pro tip from our factory floor: the “longer lash only at the end” myth can drag the eye down. Keep some mid-section length so you open up the eye gently.

How do eye shape and lash curl work together to enhance your eyes?

Two things matter most: forme des yeux et curl. The lash curl controls lift; mapping controls where you put length. Match curl to lid anatomy to enhance your eyes comfortably.

Soft curls (J/B) lie closer to the natural lash line and suit a strict office cils policy.
C/CC are everyday favorites: enough lift to make your eyes brighter without looking harsh.
D/L deliver drama or help lift the eye on yeux baissés ou yeux cagoulés.

Think of curl like tailoring: the right curl types help eyes appear more open; the wrong one can “flip” under a heavy lid. If you’re choosing the right lash, start with C/CC for flexible retail stock, then add D and L to solve specific shapes.

Cat Eye vs Doll Eye vs Open Eye: which extension style suits different eye shapes?

Œil de chat places the longest lash near the coin externe/coins externes des yeux to create an elongated eye shape. It’s one of the most popular lash maps for yeux tournés vers le haut et yeux en amande, and the most pinned cils look on mood boards. Use a gentle curl at the end to avoid a droop.
Doll Eye / Baby Doll Eye / Open Eye style concentrates length at the middle of the eye/center of the eye, making eyes appear bigger. Great on hooded lids or yeux ronds that need lift. It’s a friendly, cute cils that clients call “awake.”
Natural Eye balances length across the cils map, following a textbook natural eye shape for work-friendly polish.

These eyelash extension styles are not one-size fits all. A skilled lash artist ou technicienne des cils will tweak extension style et curl à suit different eye shapes.

Mapping 101: where to place length—center of the eye or outer corner?

Outer corner of the eye emphasis creates Œil de chat. It can make an eye to make a sleek, lifted wing—if you keep mid-lengths balanced. Too much length only at the end makes the eye tilt down.

Center of the eye emphasis creates Open Eye ou Doll Eye. This brightens and can open up the eye on hooded lids. On yeux baissés, lift from the mid-section, then taper softly at the very coin externe.

Use short lengths (e.g., 7–9 mm) at inner corners to protect cils naturels comfort.
Increase 1–2 mm steps toward the chosen focal point.
Respect the natural lash line et natural lash health: where a hair is weak, go lighter.

Natural look vs glam: choosing the right lash for your personal style

A perfect lash style reflects personal style. For a soft cils day, pair Classic with brown eyelash options or lighter lash color mixes. For shoots, hybrid lashes with cils volumineux fans deliver texture the camera loves.

Retailers: stock both eyelash styles—“weekday” naturals and “weekend” glam—so shoppers can switch. Salons: show a simple menu with photos of Classic, Hybrid, and Volume, plus types of lash extensions by curl. This lets clients point and choose.

“We keep C and CC curls ready for Classic, plus D for glam. Those three cover 90% of requests.”

Hooded eyes, round eyes, almond eyes, downturned eyes: pro tips that lift the eye

Hooded / hooded eyes: pick L or D curls; keep heavy length off the deepest fold so the eyes appear more open.
Yeux ronds: soften the whites with Œil de chat (gentle flare) or Open Eye style (center lift).
Almond eyes / upturned eyes / upturned eye shape: can wear most extension de cils maps; avoid over-flaring the tail.
Yeux baissés: raise the bulk of length just before the coin externe; taper fast at the edge.

In all cases, balance curl and weight. Lighter diameters protect natural lash health and reduce torque on follicles.

Retention, lash glue, and natural lash health (for pros and DIY lash extensions users)

Good retention starts with good chemistry. Pair humidity-matched colle pour cils with correct pickup and placement. For pros, use fresh bottles every 4–6 weeks; for retail, add aftercare cards.

For pro kits, see meilleure colle à cils; for sensitive users, offer a slow-drying option.
Teach gentle cleansing to protect cils naturels health.
Pour DIY lash extensions, advise patch tests and careful removal with approved removers. Avoid oil-heavy formulas before fills.

Average wear time varies by sebum levels and daily routine, but Classic often wears 2–3 weeks between fills, Hybrid/Volume about the same when weight is right. Use flexible fans and correct bases to reduce breakage.
