I'm not going to tell what you size you should give your customers, you should 
determine that for yourself.  But others on this thread have suggested /48, 
/56, and /60, those all seem reasonable to me depending on the situation.  What 
I will beg you, do not limit your customers to a single /64 subnet in there 
homes.  There are many valid reason to have more than one subnet in a home, 
easiest example is a separate Guest WiFi subnet.

See the following for way more details;

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7368
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6177

Hope that helps.
