Sculpted brows make us look instantly put together, even without a stitch of makeup. They define our faces, enhance our expressions, and make our eyes pop. Getting brows into shape on your own can be tricky, especially if you get a little tweezer crazy. Instead, leave your brows to the pros, letting them define, shape, and set them into place with one of today’s hottest new brow treatments – eyebrow lamination.
What Is Eyebrow Lamination?
Brow lamination is a way to whip brows into shape and keep them that way for up to 6 weeks. It’s become a hot topic – mainly because it makes dreaded eyebrow-shaping routines a breeze. Brow artists can bring out the best of your brows, allowing you to rock bare brows or lightly shade them in for a more dramatic look. Our process involves a gentle keratin formula that’s brushed into brows to sculpt the most flattering shape. Post-treatment, you’ll wake up to fuller, thicker, and shapelier brows than you’ve never seen before.
The Process of Eyebrow Lamination
Eyebrow lamination takes about one hour, during which time brow artists lift, shape, and set brows into place. At The Brow Fixx, our artists consult with clients first, answering questions and getting an idea of expectations. After that, it’s as simple as laying back and relaxing while artists work their magic. Your first time trying out eyebrow lamination, here’s what you can expect.
Step 1 – Lift
Using a keratin-rich lifting formula, brow artist coat brow hairs to lift them up. They make sure to get every single strand, allowing them to relax for easier shaping and molding along the way.
Step 2 – Shape
Once brow hairs are lifted and malleable, brow artists gently brush hairs upward, pushing them into the most flattering shape for your face and eyes.
Step 3 – Set
After the desired shape is reached, another solution is applied that sets the shape into place. Brow artists will set them, clean you up, and give your brows a final comb and trim before showing off the results.
On top of perfectly shaped brows, brow artists can also add in an eyebrow tint for added definition. Eyebrow tinting makes brows appear fuller and thicker and results lasting up to 6 weeks.
Brow Lamination Aftercare
Brow lamination aftercare is one of the most effective ways to extend your results. To keep brows looking groomed and shaped, here are a few tips.
Avoid H2O and Moisture
Post-treatment, your brow hairs are still pretty relaxed. Getting them wet or exposing them to moisture can undo results, so it’s best to steer clear. That means no steamy showers, no saunas, and no sweating for the rest of the day.
Keep Brows Hydrated
After day one is done, top brow artists recommend keeping brows hydrated with a moisturizer or oil. It’s best to add it in the evening, waking up and brushing brow hairs out before starting your day.
Avoid Touching or Rubbing
If you’ve got a habit of rubbing your brows, it’s better to break it. Excess rubbing and touching can bring brows back to their pre-treatment state.
Skip Exfoliation
Exfoliation is a crucial part of skincare – though it’s best kept far away from brows, and it can cause results to fade quickly. You can exfoliate around the brows but avoid rubbing products into the brows as much as possible.
The Fuss Over Eyebrow Lamination & Tint
Since hitting the scene, eyebrow lamination has become one of the most in-demand treatments. Clients love that they can have a good brow day every day without having to commit to results. On top of that, eyebrow lamination treatments are gentle on the skin and eyes and pose very few risks. Below, we’ve got more on why eyebrow lamination is a trending topic.
Brow Lamination = Perfectly Shaped Brows
Keeping brows shaped with eyebrow waxing is just one part of the brow-perfecting process. Most of us still have to fill them in and comb them into place – a timely task that can wear off throughout the day. With eyebrow lamination, one of the biggest perks is that brows stay in place and appear fuller, helping us ditch the daily brow routine.
It’s Commitment Free
Brow shapes and trends come and go, as do our preferences. More permanent methods like microblading leave little room for change and, if done incorrectly, can be disastrous. Eyebrow lamination reigns over microblading, producing similar lifted results without commitment. If results are not as expected, brows will be back to normal in 6 weeks – though we promise you’ll love them from day one!
It’s Safe & Healthy
Our brow lamination formula is infused with keratin, silk peptides, and vitamins A and E. These goodies along with a mix of nourishing ingredients actually result in healthier brows. Eyebrow lamination can quickly become your secret to great brows from here on out, safe to treat brows as results fade to keep them looking fresh and on fleek.
How Long Does Eyebrow Lamination Last?
Waking up to beautiful brows is definitely “goals”. Part of the appeal is that there’s zero commitment but, if you love results, you’ll likely want to keep them up. Fortunately, eyebrow lamination tends to last from 4 to 6 weeks. Because our formula is gentle on brow hairs, you can schedule an appointment once results have faded, keeping your brows looking their best all year round.
Your Best Brows Every Day, All Day Brows are a big part of one’s look. Shaping and defining them can take makeup looks from drab to fab – but it’s truly an art form. Pencils, powders, pomades, and gels can help us achieve good brows, though it takes time and patience. With eyebrow lamination, you can wake up each day with beautiful brows, giving them a quick brush and starting your day knowing you look your best. Once you’re ready to hop on the bandwagon, give one of our brow artists a shout to schedule your first life-changing (and new favorite!) brow-shaping routine.
