What the term means.
The J describes the profile, not the application technique. It can appear at different lengths and thicknesses, and does not by itself specify a classic attachment or a volume fan.
A small tip curve should be compared with the natural lash direction. The same fibre can project differently on an upward-pointing hair and a downward-pointing one. Record the curl alongside the selected length and diameter for a useful technical specification.
The technical details.
- Profile
- Subtle tip lift
- Lower section
- Relatively straight lower section
- Tip and bend
- Small, gentle upward curve
- Comparison
- B generally introduces a fuller curve within one range.
These are industry definitions. Product names, profiles and availability vary; your artist selects the actual system and construction for your appointment.
A common question.
Does J curl guarantee a natural-looking set?
No. Density, length, taper, colour and mapping also determine appearance. A gentle curl is one component of the design rather than a complete styling specification.
