Essential Tips for Perfectly Laminated Brows!

Eyebrows are one of the most important features on your face. They draw attention to your eyes and create a frame for your face. It can be a challenge to keep your eyebrows looking perfect, but with the right techniques and products, you can have perfectly laminated brows every time.

What is Brow Lamination?

Brow lamination is a semi-permanent process that helps you achieve the perfect brow shape and keep your brows looking full and beautiful. The process involves using a special formula to reshape and coat the hairs, which helps to keep them in place and adds a glossy finish. The process is relatively quick, taking only about 30 to 45 minutes, and the results can last anywhere from 6 - 8 weeks. It's a great way to take care of your eyebrows without having to constantly fill them in every morning. For the best results, We recommend working with a professional lash and brow specialist to achieve the best results. 

Benefits of Brow Lamination

There are many benefits to brow lamination. First, it helps to give your brows a more polished look. The process helps to define the shape of your eyebrows, making them look fuller and more symmetrical.

It also helps to keep your brows in place for a longer period of time. The lamination process coats the hairs, which helps to keep them in their place and prevents them from becoming frizzy or unruly. This means that you don't have to worry about constantly filling them in or brushing them into place with an eyebrow makeup gel.

Lastly, a brow lamination can help to fill in sparse areas in your brows. The process helps to make the hairs stand out, giving the illusion of a fuller brow.

What can go wrong with a brow lamination?

While a brow lamination is a great way to take care of your brows, it's important to keep in mind that it can also go wrong. If you're not careful, you can end up with over-processed brows, which can be damaging and difficult to fix. That’s why it’s so important to work with a licensed professional. 

When you over-process your brows, the lamination can cause the hairs to become brittle and break off. This can lead to bald patches and uneven brows, which can be difficult to fix.

It's also important to remember that the lamination process can cause irritation to the skin. If you have sensitive skin, it's important to be careful and use a product with a milder formula.

How to avoid over-processing your clients brows

The best way to avoid over-processing your eyebrows is to be careful and take your time. Always start with a patch test on the skin to make sure that the product won't cause any irritation for your clients.

Once you're ready to start laminating, be sure to follow the best practices and directions very carefully. Many lamination products have different instructions depending on the type of hair you have. For example, if you have thick brows, you may need to use a stronger formula or longer processing times.

It's also important to wait the full 6 to 8 weeks between lamination sessions. Going too soon for a treatment can cause the hairs to become dry and brittle.

Preparing for brow lamination

Before you start the lamination process, it's important to make sure that your brows are properly prepared. First, you should make sure that the brows are clean and free of any makeup or dirt.

You should then assess the density of the brow hairs you will be laminating. In doing this you will be able to determine the proper timings each step should be left on to avoid any over-processing.

It's also important to make sure that you have the right tools ready for the job. You'll need a pair of tweezers, waxing supplies if needed, a brow brush, and a lamination product.

Aftercare tips for brow lamination

Once you've finished the lamination process, it's important to take care of your brows. It's best to avoid any makeup or products on the brows for at least 24 hours. This will help to ensure that the lamination process has had enough time to set. After the first 24 hours have passed, a moisturizing or nourishing product should be applied to the brows daily. A couple of great options are our 100% Natural Castor Oil or DUO Brow & Lash InTOXXification. 

It's also important to avoid any activities for the first 24 hours that can cause the brows to become too wet, such as swimming or steam rooms. This can cause the lamination process to become undone.
