Brow Lamination and Tint.
A brow lamination and tint is a process that creates the illusion of thicker brows with minimal effort. While these procedures work well independently, a brow tint after the lamination can help create a puffier and fuller look. Tinting can last between four and six weeks so you’ll maintain the treatment for as long as your brow lamination. To truly transform your look, talk to your aesthetician about laminating and tinting your eyebrows.
What Is Brow Lamination?
Eyebrow lamination is a brow enhancement process that works to shape and lift your eyebrows while creating a shiny and smooth style. Laminated brows are relaxed, straightened and lifted to offer a longer, fuller look, creating a beautiful shape and style.
This beauty technique requires a keratin-based chemical solution that relaxes the hairs, giving your aesthetician the flexibility to lift your brows and create tall, straight hairs.
After your natural brow hairs are styled to your desired shape, a setting lotion is used to maintain the look, resulting in fuller-looking eyebrows. To enhance color and further define your shape, ask your professional makeup artist for a brow lamination and tint.
Eyebrow lamination is sometimes called an “eyebrow perm” since the procedure can make your brows look brushed up, lifted and gelled for about six weeks. Although microblading and eyebrow tattoos use dye strokes to create lines and depth, the brow lamination process is simple, pain-free and doesn’t require needles or dye.
Benefits of Brow Lamination.
The main benefits of brow lamination are natural, fuller-looking brows and reduced patchiness. If you’re struggling with thinning hair, gaps from overplucking or unruly eyebrows that grow in different directions, laminated brows can help you create an even shape that looks effortlessly chic without makeup.
How Long Does Brow Lamination Last?
Generally, brow lamination lasts between six and eight weeks. If you take care of your brows and follow aftercare instructions, your laminated eyebrows will last two months. Your hair type can play a role since finer brows require longer gaps between appointments to avoid damage to the follicles while anyone with thicker hair may need a touch-up before the 6 week time period.
How Long Does Brow Lamination Take?
The brow lamination process doesn’t take long and can be completed in 30 to 45 minutes. If you want to get your brows tinted or waxed, the procedure may take between 45 and 60 minutes so make sure to schedule extra time for your appointment. Some places may schedule a patch test to ensure your skin isn’t too sensitive. This test typically takes place 48 hours before your procedure. Once you have received the go-ahead, you can book your brow lamination.
Brow Lamination Process.
If you’re curious about what to expect, the brow lamination process is easy, quick and painless. When you arrive at your appointment, you will be guided to a reclining chair or beauty bed. Most beauty professionals follow a similar process:
1. The lamination starts with an assessment. Your professional will mark the shape of your brows and establish the proper styling to create a beautiful look. Be sure to discuss your ideal outcome with your aesthetician to make sure you are on the same page.
2. You’ll want to arrive with a clean and washed face, but make sure to moisturize your skin with a high-quality and organic skincare product. Before treatment, you may be asked to wash off all cosmetics. This enables the chemical solution to penetrate deeply and work properly, giving your therapist a full view of your natural brows.
3. Your aesthetician may thread or cut your brows to remove unruly stray hairs that are out of place.
4. The professional will then apply a brow lift cream containing keratin. The chemical solution will be gently brushed onto your brows with a spoolie brush to break down the bonds in your hair and help your therapist manipulate the brows into your desired shape.
5. When styling, your brow will be brushed up and straightened to create long hairs.
6. Next, the hairs will be covered with cling film. You will be asked to relax for 5 to 10 minutes as the solution takes hold.
7. A neutralizer will then be applied to seal your brows in place and maintain the new shape.
8. A restorative nourishing oil will be applied to the skin and hair around your brow area. The chemicals can be quite drying, and the oil helps prevent irritation or redness after the treatment process. A quality moisturizing product is an important part of hydrating your skin.
At the end, you should be left with sleek and polished brows that are locked in place. After 24, the wet look will disappear and you will have fluffy and full eyebrows.
