Lash mapping is the process of applying eyelash extensions in a symmetrical, customized way according to an individual's eye shape. This ensures that the final outcome is aesthetically pleasing and looks natural. Lash mapping requires planning and precision, and involves drawing out a 'lash map' on the under-eye pad according to the individual's desired style and length. The most common lash map styles are Spiky Eye and Baby Doll.

To start, the lash artist should carefully examine the client’s eye shape and discuss the desired look with them. Then the practitioner should select the best lash map style which suits the individual’s eye shape and preference. Once the map is selected, the practitioner should draw it onto the under-eye pad. After that, the practitioner can start to apply the extensions one by one, according to the planned map. It is important to keep an eye on the progress throughout the application to ensure that the extensions are being placed in the right place.
