Everything You Need to Know About Your First Brow Lamination

10/2/2023

Hey friends! Hope here from Salon Society to chat about brow laminations, and what you should know before your first service. Let's get right into it!!

WHAT IS A BROW LAMINATION?

A brow lamination is a brow texture treatment to reshape & style the brows. It uses a chemical solution to break down the bonds in the hair, making them mouldable. After the hairs are brushed into the desirable position, a second solution rebuilds the bonds and locks in our new gorgeous shape!

HOW DO I PREPARE FOR A BROW LAMINATION?

Brow Lamination is a chemical process, meaning there are a couple of things we need to do & avoid to prepare for our appointment!

Avoid retinol, AHAs, and other exfoliants for at least 48 hours before your appointment.
Avoid tweezing or waxing for at least a week prior so we have lots of hair to work with!
If you have ultra-sensitive skin, an allergy to hair colour, or other allergies, I always highly recommend booking a complimentary patch test 48 hours in advance where we can check for sensitivity or reactions.
Let your brow artist know of any skin conditions you may have!

BENEFITS OF BROW LAMINATIONS

There is a reason brown laminations are so popular! They are non-invasive, not permanent and great for people who struggle to commit to brow services.

They are also completely customizable to your personal brow goals! From lifting & lowering arches to smoothing & reshaping - we can adjust to your personal desires!

HOW DO I TAKE CARE OF MY LAMINATED BROWS?

Aftercare is the most crucial part of a lasting, gorgeous brow lamination. It is essential to avoid water for 24 hours after. This includes avoiding steam rooms, saunas, hot showers, & excessive sweating.

After 24 hours, those brows need HYDRATION. This means applying oil regularly! Think of a lamination like lightening your hair. Because it has gone through a chemical process, it needs a little extra TLC.
