What is another name for strip lashes?

  1. Fringe lashes

  2. Band lashes

  3. Block lashes

  4. Faux lashes

The correct answer is: Band lashes

Strip lashes are commonly referred to as band lashes. This term highlights the design of the lashes, which are typically made of a strip of material that the individual lashes are attached to, creating a full and dramatic look when applied to the eyelid along the natural lash line. The term emphasizes the application method as well. These lashes feature a flexible band that allows for easier handling and application compared to individual lashes, which require a more intricate placement process. Band lashes are favored for their ability to enhance the eyes quickly and dramatically without the time investment required for individual lash application. Other options, such as fringe lashes and faux lashes, often refer to different styles or types of lashes but do not specifically denote the strip format that band lashes represent. Understanding the correct terminology helps in both communication with clients and during the application process, ensuring clarity in service and product offerings.
