What Is Brow Lamination?

What is brow lamination?

Eyebrow lamination — sometimes referred to as a brow sculpt or lift — is a two-step, semi-permanent treatment that involves setting the eyebrow hairs with a chemical solution to reshape the brows:

• In the first step of the brow lamination process, a cream is applied to break down the bonds in the eyebrow hairs, allowing them to be reshaped. 

• In the second step, another cream is used to rebuild these bonds and secure the brows in their new, more uniform position.

The result: Fuller, bolder, and lifted brows that last for up to 8 weeks.

Advantages of Brow Lamination

Brow lamination has rapidly gained popularity, and it's clear why. It's fast, painless, and very affordable. It also offers these fantastic benefits:

• Fuller Brows: One of the main reasons people choose brow lamination is the desired full-brow appearance. If your brows are a bit thin, lamination can enhance them in just one session.

• Controlled and Defined Brows: Struggling with unruly brow hairs? We've all been there. Brow lamination smooths them out, providing more refined brows that make you feel instantly polished. 

• Personalized Results: Whether you want a bold, brushed-up style or a subtle, sleek enhancement, brow lamination is completely customizable. Our specialists adjust the treatment to suit your specific brow needs. No request is too large or small when it comes to perfecting those stunning brows.

Brow lamination is suitable for most eyebrow hair types and styles, from full to thin, and every beautiful brow shape in between.  

How should I get ready for a brow lamination treatment?

Preparing for a brow lamination involves taking some basic precautions similar to those for other brow services. These precautions include avoiding:

• Using retinol or AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids) at least two days prior to your appointment, as these skincare products can sometimes react with the lamination cream and cause an unwanted skin reaction. 

• Waxing, threading, or tweezing your brows right before your lamination appointment. 

• Extended sun exposure that could result in a sunburn before your appointment.

What should I anticipate from the eyebrow lamination process?

If you’re unfamiliar with brow lamination, here’s what you can expect, from the duration of the procedure to how long the results usually last.

How long does brow lamination take?

The eyebrow lamination process usually takes under an hour—ideal for ticking something off your beauty list during your lunch break.

How long do the results from brow lamination last?

The improved shape of your brows after an eyebrow lamination treatment generally lasts 6 weeks. With proper care, the results can extend up to 8 weeks.

Is brow lamination safe?

Eyebrow lamination is safe when performed by a trained and certified professional. Your artist will ask pertinent questions and may use a skin patch test if necessary to ensure the treatment and products are appropriate for you. Always inform your artist if you have skin conditions like psoriasis or eczema, or if you are sensitive to any specific skincare products or chemicals.

Brow lamination aftercare tips

To keep that freshly laminated look flawless, follow these simple aftercare tips:

• Avoid getting brows wet for 24 hours
