Brow Lamination: Everything You Need to Know Before You Start

Brow lamination is the beauty treatment that has conquered the world in a short time. Whether you want sleek, lifted eyebrows or a fuller, more natural look – with brow lamination you get those perfect 'catwalk brows' without the daily hassle of gels or pencils.

But before you get started, it's important to know exactly what it is, how it works, and what to look out for to achieve the best and safest result.

What is brow lamination?

Brow lamination is a semi-permanent treatment in which you place and fix the natural eyebrow hairs in a new, desired direction with a special lotion.
The result? Full, neat and perfectly shaped eyebrows that stay in place for up to 6-8 weeks.
It is an ideal alternative to microblading or eyebrow tattoos because it is completely painless and does not cause a permanent change to your eyebrows.

The benefits of brow lamination

• Full, defined look – even with thin or asymmetrical eyebrows.

• Time saver – no more daily styling with eyebrow gel or powder.

• Painless & safe – no needles or pigment, only gentle formulas.

• Long-lasting results – perfectly in shape for up to 8 weeks.

• Adjustable – from tightly defined to fluffy natural.

How does brow lamination work step-by-step?

Although the exact method may vary by salon or product, the process usually proceeds as follows:

1. Cleaning
   The eyebrows are thoroughly cleansed to remove oil, makeup, and skincare products.

2. Apply lifting lotion
   This lotion temporarily makes the hairs flexible, allowing them to be styled into the new shape.

3. Shaping & Fixing
   The eyebrows are combed in the desired direction and fixed with a second lotion.

4. Optional: Paint
   Often, a brow tint is added for extra color and definition.

5. Nourishing care
   A keratin or oil treatment nourishes the hair and restores its shine.

Is brow lamination suitable for everyone?

In most cases, yes, but there are exceptions.
Not suitable for:

• Sores or skin irritation around the eyebrows

• Severe allergies to cosmetics

• Very thin or damaged eyebrow hairs

Tip: Always do a patch test 24 hours before treatment, even when using at home.

Aftercare: how to keep your eyebrows looking perfect for longer

• Avoid water, steam, and makeup on your eyebrows for the first 24 hours.

• Do not use oil-based cleaners during the first week.

• Gently brush your eyebrows into shape daily.

• Regularly nourish your eyebrow hairs with an eyebrow serum or oil.
