Eyebrow lamination: description and rules of the procedure

The dream of all girls and women is to look always well-groomed. This makes you feel more confident. A beautiful haircut and hairstyle, and the right makeup can work wonders for your appearance. Often you have to spend a lot of time applying makeup, especially if corrections require eyelashes and eyebrows, because they can often stick out to the sides and have an irregular shape. Recently, many beauty salons have a new eyelash and eyebrow lamination service.

If the services for lamination of hair and eyelashes are already familiar to the representatives of the fair half of humanity, then lamination of eyebrows is a fairly new procedure, which has already been used by a considerable number of beautiful ladies.

Although this cosmetic procedure appeared not so long ago, it has already gained considerable popularity among both young girls and older women. This is due to the fact that after this procedure, the face is immediately transformed, and the eyebrows look neat and well-groomed.

Let's try to figure out what lamination is and why the service was able to gain such popularity so quickly. The essence of the procedure is that a special composition is applied to the eyebrows, thanks to which the hairs become healthier, while they look beautiful, well-groomed, and have the correct shape.

The lamination process itself consists of three stages. At the initial stage, irregularities are eliminated. Keratins are applied to the eyebrows - these are peculiar molecules that make up the hair shaft. After applying keratins, damaged hairs are filled, as a result of which they are restored. Hair becomes bouncy, smooth and shiny.

At the second stage, pigmentation of the hairs occurs. If the eyebrow is damaged and thinned, it begins to lose its original color. During lamination, the master applies a coloring pigment to the hairs, which will give them brightness and saturation. When choosing a shade, you should give preference to more natural colors.

At the third and final stage, the eyebrows are protected. Special keratins are applied to the hair, due to which a very thin film forms on them, protecting them from adverse factors. This film allows moisture to get inside the rod, but will prevent it from evaporating from the inside. The film will protect the hairs from mechanical damage, which will have a beneficial effect on hair growth.

The composition of the funds for this procedure contains vitamin complexes, useful substances, essential amino acids, which contribute to a faster restoration of the appearance of the eyebrows.

After lamination:

• eyebrows stop sticking out in different directions and lie in the right direction;
• their shape is corrected, this is especially true with asymmetry;
• hairs become thicker and stop falling out;
• if desired, you can change the shade of the eyebrows, make the tone darker and the color saturated.

The master in the salon must choose the right shape, choose the desired shade. With the correct implementation of the technology for applying all the components, the eyebrows will become ideal and give the face more expressiveness.

Many clients, coming to the salon, ask questions about how safe such a procedure is, whether there are any contraindications in its implementation. Any cosmetic procedure can have its positive and negative sides. The advantages of this method are numerous:

• Painlessness of the procedure. Lamination should be chosen for those who want to maintain the color and shape of the eyebrows for a long time. If previously permanent makeup was used for this, which many clients do not tolerate well due to painful sensations, then this procedure takes place absolutely without pain and discomfort.
• Thanks to the protective film, the hairs are protected from mechanical damage and from exposure to sunlight, frosty air, and strong winds.

• dilute 15 g of dry gelatin in 50 g of heated water;
• stir the mass and hold over low heat for 5 minutes;
• let the mass cool and add vitamin E or a little hair balm (if you have olive, burdock or almond oil, you can add 5-6 drops of oils).

3. The gelatinous mixture should be kept on the sidelines for an hour.

For several days after the procedure, the eyebrows do not need to be wetted with water. This is necessary in order for the effect to take hold better. Also, on these days, you should refrain from applying cosmetics on them. The effect of the gelatin procedure can last for more than a month.

Although the hair lamination procedure is painless, you need to give your face a chance to get used to it, so you need to give it proper rest. Usually, after lamination, the result is enough for 2 months. For the result of the procedure to last longer, the eyebrows need proper care:

• do not apply masks on the face, use a scrub and peeling;
• in the early days, you do not need to sunbathe in a solarium or on the beach;
• during the week it is not recommended to visit the bathhouse.

Often, clients in the salon ask a question whether it is possible to apply henna to the eyebrows for coloring after this procedure. Experts recommend using henna 3-5 days after lamination. No other eyebrow care is required after the procedure.

Eyebrow lamination is a fairly new procedure, but it has already won a large number of fans, as evidenced by numerous positive reviews.

Most of the clients came to the salon for the procedure, since by nature they have eyebrows that need to be styled for a long time, besides, their shape was far from ideal. Thanks to lamination, they got the desired result: the eyebrows look much better, they appear thicker, they have a rich color. In addition, the hairs now adhere to each other and do not bristle in different directions.

Judging by the reviews, the effect after the procedure lasts for a long time. Even after a month, the eyebrows look well-groomed, although they require a slight correction in the form of combing and giving them the desired direction. The procedure is painless and lasts a little over an hour, which is very convenient in the face of constant lack of time for many women (work, household chores, classes with children).

The disadvantages of lamination, some clients refer to the unpleasant smell of the products applied to the eyebrows. It was also noted that after washing, sometimes hairs from the eyebrows can fall out. For some clients, the effect lasted for a short time, the eyebrows ceased to keep their shape and looked oily.

Often, negative reviews are received after the procedure is performed by an inexperienced master, so you should not save money - it is better to immediately go through the procedure in the salon, where experienced craftsmen work who use only high-quality and proven tools and work strictly according to technology.
