Wispy Lash Mapping Styles, Across Every Eye Shape

The wispy look in eyelash extensions, on all nine eye shapes. Same intent, nine different maps — because the same peak placed on a hooded lid and on a downturned lid does not read the same.

Also called spikes, wet set, kim k, manga. The same layout is meant in each case — the name changes, the geometry does not.

A wispy lash map alternates height along the line so the set reads as texture rather than as a wall. The rule is about contrast, not about length: spikes only read as spikes against a bed that is clearly shorter, and spikes placed evenly stop being texture and become a serration. Where along the line the spikes belong is decided by the eye shape underneath.

The nine maps below are this effect on every eye shape, in each technique. Read across them to see what the shape underneath changes — that comparison is the part a single tutorial cannot give you.
