Brow lamination is a beauty treatment that involves the "perming" of eyebrow hairs to provide a fuller, more even look. The procedure typically takes about an hour and involves coating the brows with two different chemicals: a relaxing cream and a setting solution. The chemicals allow the brow technician to brush the brows upward and "set" the hairs in this new direction. Laminated brows tend to have a fuller appearance without bare or thin spots. Here are some details about brow lamination:
Positive aspects:
- Brow lamination can make brows look thicker and fuller.
- It can also help keep them in place after washing off any cosmetics you may wear.
- The main benefit of laminated brows is the look of them. When done correctly, the brow will lay in a more aesthetically pleasing shape, with the brows looking fuller and more lifted.
- You can also re-shape the brows a little during lamination; for example, raising the arch or lowering the tail to get your desired shape.
Negative aspects:
- If not done correctly, the result of damaged brows can cause dry, unruly, frazzled-looking brows.
- While brow lamination is not invasive compared to brow surgery, tattooing, or other related procedures, there are still risks involved.
Ingredients or materials:
- Brow lamination involves the use of chemicals to semi-permanently set the eyebrow hairs in a vertical direction.
- The procedure typically involves the use of a relaxing cream, a setting solution, and a nourishing oil to help prevent skin irritation and hair dryness that may be caused by the chemicals used during the perm.
- The solutions used for brow lamination require strong, high-grade ingredients, so it is important that the procedure be performed by a professional.
