What Is Brow Lamination?

Brow lamination, also sometimes referred to as a brow perm, brow lift or even brow botox, is a popular cosmetic procedure that involves gently shaping and setting the individual hairs of the eyebrows. This creates a beautiful, fuller looking brow that highlights and frames the facial features, giving the wearer an instantly lifted and more youthful appearance. While there are many different ways to accomplish this effect using makeup or other brow treatments, the brow lamination remains one of the most popular and effective options for achieving this look. This blog goes a little more in depth into brow lamination, and more specifically, InLei®'s Brow Bomber.

How Long Does Brow Lamination Last?

Brow lamination typically lasts for around six to eight weeks. However, this timeframe can be extended by getting your brows re-laminated at your local salon. Remember that each hair is on its own growth cycle, so it’s best to book in with your brow stylist every 4-6 weeks to keep your brows looking flawless at all times!

How Much Does Brow Lamination Cost?

The cost of brow lamination can vary depending on a number of factors, including the type of products being used and the experience of the technician performing the procedure. However, in general, people can expect to pay anywhere from £30 to £90 for a full brow lamination treatment. 

How Long Does A Brow Lamination Treatment Take?

A brow lamination treatment varies in length, but takes around 30-50 minutes, depending on the thickness and complexity of your brows. Your brow artist will be able to give you a better idea of your exact treatment time after a consultation, based on how much shaping your brows will need and if you would also like your brows tinted during the lamination appointment.

Is Brow Lamination Dangerous?

There is a some debate about the safety of brow lamination. On the one hand, lamination helps to give you fuller and more defined eyebrows without having to rely on makeup or other products. On the other hand, if not done properly, lamination can damage your natural brow hairs and lead to itching and irritation. However, when performed by a licensed and experienced professional, brow lamination is completely safe. Just make sure your brow technician is fully qualified and insured beforehand to ensure that you are in good hands.

How Do I Prepare For A Brow Lamination?

There are a few different steps that you can take in order to prepare for a brow lamination, but the most important thing to do is to simply do nothing! Your brow artist will have a lot more brow to work with and perfect if you leave your brows unplucked as they are naturally. Then, it’s best if you can show up without makeup or skincare products on your brow area. While your brow artist will begin the treatment by cleansing your brows, it will make their job easier if you arrive free of makeup! Try to also avoid using any moisturisers or skincare products - especially oily ones - on your brow area prior to the procedure, as these may prevent the lamination from taking properly in the case that the ingredients wrap around the hairs and prohibit the lamination products from working. By following these tips, you can ensure that your brow lamination goes smoothly and gives you beautiful, defined eyebrows.

What Is The Brow Lamination Process Like? 

Your brow technician will begin by cleansing your brows and brow area to ensure there is no makeup residue or leftover skincare products on the hairs before brushing the hairs into place. Next they will brush some perming solution into the hairs to open up the bonds in the hairs. Depending on how thick your brow hairs are naturally, this can vary in how long it takes. They will then remove the first solution from the brows before brushing on the second solution, which forms new bonds in the hairs and sets them in their new, super neat shape. Once this is removed, your tint is applied to the hairs - note though that this step is optional, so if you are allergic to tints or you simply do not want your brows any darker you can skip this step and go right on to shaping the brows (this can involve using wax, threading, or tweezing techniques to shape and tidy the brows) before moving onto the final stage, which is to apply a nourishing brow butter which hydrates the hairs and skin.  

Overall, it's an intricate process but one that yields impressive results. Whether you're looking to enhance your natural eyebrows or repair damaged ones after years of over-plucking, brow lamination is definitely worth considering! Check out this article for a InLei® Brow Bomber step by step.

Is Brow Lamination Safe During Pregnancy? 

Brow lamination is a popular hair treatment that can leave your brows looking thicker and fuller, yet many people are unaware of the potential dangers associated with this procedure during pregnancy. The chemicals in the solutions used during a brow lamination treatment can be absorbed into the bloodstream via the follicles of the hairs, and could pose risks to the foetus. Additionally, due to the increased sensitivity and hormonal changes, brow salons warn against getting this treatment done during pregnancy or while still breastfeeding as it can produce very unpredictable results.

Given these concerns, it is important to think carefully before undergoing a brow lamination treatment while you are pregnant. Ultimately, the best choice is to simply seek out other ways of enhancing your eyebrows during this time, such as through eyebrow threading or other natural methods. 

The Verdict On Brow Lamination

If you're looking for a way to achieve perfectly shaped brows, brow lamination may be right for you. This treatment can help to tame unruly brows and give you the appearance of fuller, thicker brows. Just keep in mind that results typically last for six to eight weeks, and when performed by a licensed and experienced professional, brow lamination is safe.
