All About Brow Laminations

Why Would I Want a Brow Lamination?

If you have these goals for your eyebrows:

  • to look fuller
  • to tame hairs that grow in different directions
  • to darken brow color and/or enhance their shape and structure

You can get these results with a brow lamination and tint.

How Does it Work?

  • A brow lamination is like a perm.
    • For a perm, the hair is wrapped around a rod and solutions are applied to the hair so that the hair keeps the curl pattern of the rod.
    • For a brow lamination, the brows are brushed upwards and into the desired shape.
      • Then they are secured using a using a water soluble adhesive.
      • Solutions are added to the brows to keep them in that shape. It is like using a brow gel to hold your brows in the desired shape, but it lasts 5-6 weeks.

How do I Prepare for my Appointment?

Before Your Appointment

  • Come to your appointment makeup free.
  • Be prepared to lie flat on your back for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

After Your Appointment

  • For the next 24-48 hours:
    • Avoid water, oils, makeup/products on your brows.
    • Avoid heat/steam.
      • Be careful when cooking on a stovetop or the oven- the steam can alter the shape of your brow lamination.
    • Do not sleep on face/brows- this can alter the shape.
  • General Aftercare
    • After you wash your face, you may notice that the brows will fall back into their typical shape.
      • Don’t worry the lamination is still there. Simply brush through your brows with a spoolie to arrange them as desired.
    • Rebook in 5-6 weeks.
