THE RESIDENCESERVICES
Lashes & Brows
Ask around about lash extensions in Dubai this September and one style keeps coming up: wispy hybrid lashes. Inside the Lash and Brow Atelier at March14 Beauty Residence, it has become the set clients ask for by name, booked out further in advance than almost anything else on the menu.

Hybrid lashes sit between two older techniques. Classic extensions apply one fibre to one natural lash, giving a soft, mostly natural line. Volume extensions apply several fine fibres per natural lash for maximum density and drama. A hybrid set mixes both across the same eye. Wispy is the finishing detail on top: a handful of longer, more defined spikes placed through the outer corner and centre of the lash line, the kind of texture that photographs well without reading as an obvious extension.
The result looks full without looking heavy, which is likely why it has overtaken both classic and full volume as March14's most requested signature lash extensions set this month. It suits the shift from summer's low maintenance, no makeup look toward the more defined, event ready eye that autumn in Dubai tends to bring, weddings, launches and the return of the social calendar after the summer break. Clients who want definition without any extensions at all often choose the wet look lash lift instead, the lower maintenance technique Vogue Arabia asked March14 to explain earlier this year. The two sit at opposite ends of the same Atelier, extensions for maximum definition, a lift and tint for something that grows out with the client's own lashes.

March14 Beauty Residence is not a single treatment room attached to a reception desk. It is a two floor, 3,500 square foot beauty residence in Al Quoz 3, Goshi City 2, Dubai, where Hair, Nails, Lashes and Brows, Spray Tan and advanced Body services all sit under one roof and one standard. The Lash and Brow Atelier is one department inside that larger residence, staffed by specialists trained to work to the same level as every other room in the building.
That standard is formalised through what March14 calls its Chart of Excellence. Rather than building the Atelier around a single lash brand, the team works across carefully selected lash systems and adhesives chosen for safety, comfort and how well a set actually holds up against Dubai's heat and humidity, not only how it looks on the day it is applied.
March14 was not built as a neighbourhood beauty salon that happens to also do lashes. It was built by founder Ruby Barreau out of years spent backstage, inside the ateliers, private suites and fashion environments surrounding some of the world's most recognised celebrities, where a lash set has to survive a full day of flashes, quick changes and close up cameras without a single fibre lifting. That standard, not occasional celebrity visits, is what the Lash and Brow Atelier was built from.
It sits alongside the brand's French heritage: expertise without unnecessary excess, an obsession with technique, and the understanding that a result should hold up under real scrutiny, not only in the mirror on the way out of the chair.

Most clients booking wispy hybrid lashes at March14 are now pairing the set with eyebrow lamination in the same appointment. Lamination restructures the brow hair to sit brushed up and in one direction, filling gaps and giving a fuller, more groomed shape without any pigment or tint. Paired with a fresh set of lashes, it finishes the eye area the way a full glam look would, minus the daily upkeep of brow gel and lash serum.
It is a small addition with a disproportionate effect, the kind of detail the Lash and Brow Atelier was designed around rather than an afterthought tacked onto a lash appointment.
Wispy hybrid lash extensions and eyebrow lamination are both available inside the Lash and Brow Atelier at March14 Beauty Residence, a two floor beauty destination in Al Quoz 3, Goshi City 2, Dubai. Appointments can be made here or on +971 58 554 6222.
