Transform Your Clients' Brows with Lamination

Brow lamination is a "reverse perm" for the brows that restructures brow hair to give them a more uniform shape for an extended period. Instead of the typical curls, a setting lotion helps brow hair stay brushed up and lifted upward. The process straightens the hair of the brow from the roots. The application lasts up to 6 weeks depending on the life cycle of the hair, client lifestyle, and client care.

Brows should look groomed and brushed up. The brow lamination process may lighten or darken the eyebrows, so finishing the service with a brow tint is recommended to achieve the client's preferred color. Clients may have varying results because eyebrows have different textures, thicknesses, and integrity. Some may experience flawless results for up to 6 weeks, while others may see the lamination relax slightly over time between appointments. Maintenance is recommended every 4 to 6 weeks. Manage client expectations before the treatment to ensure understanding.

1. Before and after images are a must to show the transformation, and they're also great for social posts to advertise your services. Always request permission from clients to use their images.
2. Utilize mascara wand and Y-brush tools to design brow shape and set with a thin coat of bond based on the client’s preferences. Allow client to approve look prior to starting the lamination process.
3. Brow lamination may lighten or darken the color of the brows. I highly recommend tinting for a deep, consistent color.
• Important: The tint process will take less time to develop after a brow lamination since the eyebrow hair cuticle is still open. Review the manufacturer’s protocols.
• Important: Remove the tint using a dry cotton swab; do not use water to remove the tint. Review the manufacturer’s protocols.
4. Brow lamination can be used as a gateway to microblading services. Brow lamination allows the clients to experiment with different brow designs and determine which look they prefer for a 6-week period of time. Microblading lasts 18 months, so it's important that the client is satisfied with the new design.

Brow lamination allows a client to transform their brow look with a fuller and “fluffier" looking brow. The end results tend to have a very natural look. The semi-permanent treatment lasts up to 6 weeks.
