When it comes to brow trends, we've seen it all—the thin, over-plucked arches of the '90s, the full, bold brows made famous by Cara Delevingne, and now, the latest obsession: brow lamination. This treatment promises to give you perfectly shaped, fuller-looking brows without the hassle of daily grooming. But what exactly is brow lamination, and is it the right choice for you? Here’s everything you need to know.
Does Brow Lamination Hurt?
Everyone’s favorite question when a new cosmetic treatment comes out. Brow lamination is a non-invasive treatment, so no, it doesn’t hurt. You might feel a flight tingling when the chemical solution is applied to your brows, but there are no needles or waxes involved. Our clients generally don’t find brow lamination to be an uncomfortable experience at all.
Does It Work for Sparse Brows?
Brow lamination works by lifting and setting each individual brow hair in an upward direction, creating the illusion of fuller, more voluminous brows. While it won’t create new brow hairs where there are none, it can make the most of what you’ve got. So if you’ve got sparse brows, we highly suggest giving it a try. Depending on how much you’re working with, you might still want to do a little filling in as part of your makeup routine. But plenty of our clients have sparse brows and love their brow lamination results.
Does It Include Tinting or Shaping?
The choice is yours! We offer brow lamination by itself or packaged with tinting, shaping, or all three. Brow lamination is focused on the positioning and setting of your brows. So if you’re like most of us and you’re not born with perfect Lady Gaga-esque arches, we do recommend combining your lamination with a brow wax. Tinting works wonders in enhancing the fullness and definition of your brows, so this is a great add-on for those who usually give their brow pencil a workout.
Is Lamination Bad for Your Brows?
One of the biggest concerns with any beauty treatment is whether it will cause long-term damage. Brow lamination, when done correctly, is generally safe. The key is to go to an experienced esthetician at a salon you can trust. Over-lamination or incorrect application can potentially weaken the brow hairs and cause breakage. It’s important to follow post-treatment care instructions, like avoiding excessive rubbing or applying nourishing brow serums to keep your brows healthy and strong.
