What is the best diameter for medium to thick natural lashes?

  1. .10

  2. .15

  3. .20

  4. .25

The correct answer is: .15

The best diameter for medium to thick natural lashes is .15 mm. This diameter strikes an optimal balance, providing enough volume and length while maintaining a natural appearance. Lashes that have a diameter of .15 mm are generally well-suited for enhancing the look of medium to thick natural lashes without overwhelming them. A thicker diameter, such as .20 mm or .25 mm, can create a more dramatic look but may not be ideal for clients with medium to thick eyelashes as they could lead to an unnatural appearance or potential damage to the natural lashes due to added weight. On the other hand, a thinner diameter like .10 mm would typically be more suitable for those with fine or delicate natural lashes, as it offers a lighter option that reduces the risk of stress on the natural lash. Choosing .15 mm for medium to thick lashes ensures clients achieve a fuller look while retaining a sense of realism and allowing for the health and longevity of their natural lashes.
