What is Brow Lamination?
Eyebrow Lamination is done using a gentle perm solution, neutralizing lotion, and moisturizing treatment to temporarily relax and redirect your brow hairs upwards and into place. Because the hairs are relaxed, they appear longer, giving the effect of a larger brow shape. The hairs also become more pliable after lamination, making this a great service if you are looking for a ‘fluffy’ brow without the need for a brow gel, or if your natural brow hairs are curly, unruly, or point downwards.
Which brow types benefit most from Brow Lamination?
All hair types and face shapes can get in on the fluffy brow trend via lamination, though you do need to have natural brow hair. If you’re sparse in that department, another service such as eyebrow microblading would be a better fit.
The beauty of this service is that it can be customized to each person’s face shape, eye shape, and desired brow shape. Although the brushed-up, bold and fluffy brow tends to be quite popular at our studio, brows can be laminated in a variety of different ways. If you prefer a more neat and tidy look, you can request for your brow hairs to be styled by being brushed to the side and tapered together at the ends. Laminating the brow hairs upwards can create a nice lift to the eye, especially when the natural hairs tend to grow downwards.
How Do You Care For Your Brows After a Brow Lamination Treatment?
Following the steps below will ensure your brows are healthy, hydrated and strong after a brow lamination treatment. If you do not follow good aftercare post treatment, it may result in brittle, damaged brow hairs.
- Do not get your brows wet within the first 24 hours. This includes but is not limited to excessive moisture and steam from saunas and baths.
- Do not apply makeup or receive any treatments around the brow area within the first 24 hours.
- Use a brow conditioner daily.
- Avoid rubbing or excessive touching of the brows.
- Avoid sleeping on your front within the first 24-48 hours.
After the first 24 hours you can resume your normal daily life with your fabulous brows! However, we recommend you continue to use a Brow Conditioner, which will brush your brows up into place and aids in nourishing, strengthening and protecting your brow. Brow lamination is a low maintenance not a no maintenance treatment which means you will need to brush your lashes into place each morning.
