Frequently Asked Questions
What is eyebrow lamination?
Eyebrow lamination, also known as a "brow lift," is a process that uses unique solutions or lotions to set your eyebrows into place. This non-surgical option is a "brow perm" process similar to a lash lift. Instead of curling or creating waves in the brow, the semi-permanent brow lamination process straightens the hairs and shapes your brows into a particular style.
What is the process?
A laminating solution is applied to the existing brow to start the eyebrow transformation process. This solution relaxes the hair follicles, making them easier to shape or manipulate in the desired direction. Next, a second solution or lotion is applied by the technician after which they then comb or brush the eyebrows and align the hairs. This locks in your new look. The last step of the eyebrow laminating process is the application of a nourishing serum that helps hydrate the eyebrows.
Who is the ideal candidate?
Anyone looking to enhance their eyebrows can benefit from lamination. This process works best on clients with medium-length brows and thicker hair strands, but those with shorter or longer hairs can benefit as well. No matter if you have sparse, thin, unruly brows, eyebrow lamination can create a thicker and fuller look. Clients who have over-tweezed their eyebrows in the past can also benefit from this treatment as it helps reshape and realign the hairs.
​
What are the benefits of this service?
The primary benefit of eyebrow lamination is that it gives individuals who have over-plucked their eyebrows or naturally thin brows an opportunity to achieve fuller-looking brows without having to undergo permanent treatments like tattoos or microblading. The brow laminating process also allows clients to experience a reshaped eyebrow. We can raise the brow arch or lower the tail depending on the client's desired look.​
This is not a permanent process and is non-invasive. It's a low-maintenance approach makes it an excellent option for people who don't want to commit but still want the look of fuller eyebrows. Since eyebrow lamination does not involve invasive procedures, no downtime is required after your appointment—which means you can get right back to enjoying your beautiful new brows!
