What is Brow Lamination?

In Australia, laminated eyebrows started trending in September 2019 becoming instantly popular. This technique offered a much fuller brow look, perfect for clients who wanted a fuller brow and weren’t ready for brow feathering.

It’s a pain-free treatment using your own natural brow hair to create extra volume, fullness, and a feathery brow look. The treatment restructures the brow hair to give you a fuller desired shape, how ‘feathery’ each individual wants the brow is up to the individual. You can have a very structured, defined look, a slightly brushed up fluffy look, or let’s go extra for the gorgeous Cara Delevingne’s brow.

How Does it Work?

The two main stages of the treatment are lifting and setting – tinting is optional at your first eyebrow lamination. At Lux Brows & Lashes they begin by brushing the hairs and applying the lifting solution, once applied they make sure to position each hair perfectly in place. Time to remove the lifting lotion and secondly apply the setting solution. The setting solution is crucial for perfectly positioning each hair into its new restructured shape. Finishing up with the Keratin Nourishing Oil or a brow tint.

Who is Best Suited for Brow Lamination?

Most clients are suited to brow lamination, you don’t necessarily need to have a lot of natural hair to create the laminated look, however, you do need some hair on the baseline unless of course you are happy to powder this area daily. 

Those who have virtually non-existent brow hair, people with trimmed brow hair or with brow transplants are generally not suited for brow lamination.

How to Achieve the Look of Brow Lamination at Home?

For those who aren’t sure whether brow lamination is for them, there are a few ways you can create the same impact at home.

Brow Soap 100% gives you the desire look when applied daily at home, offering a strong hair hold that lasts all day while maintaining your brows in peak condition because it’s full of fabulously hydrating and nourishing oils and waxes. During COVID-19, small businesses like Lux Brows & Lashes, needed to diversify its offering as all the services provided were in-studio treatments, that’s when they created a brow lamination kit to sell online. The Brow Soap is an absolute must-have for those looking for brow lamination at home.

To achieve fuller, fluffier brows Kim also recommends using a brow powder and brow highlighter. Brow powder gives the brow a much softer look and by using a pencil there is simply no room for error.

General FAQS

How long does brow lamination last?

Like your eyelashes, your brow hairs have a hair renewal cycle during which old hairs fall out and new hairs come through. Most people will have a growth cycle of around 30 days, so your brow lamination can last anywhere from three to eight weeks.

Can you wash your eyebrows after lamination?

As with any perm, the most important thing to do post-lamination is to keep your brows away from water, steam and makeup for at least 24 hours.

What should not do after eyebrow lamination?

Try not to apply make-up or undertake further eye treatments 24 hours after your treatment. Avoid swimming/sauna/working out for 48 hours. And do not allow prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat for 48 hours.
