Beautiful eyebrows are an important part of our image. We always try to maintain the beauty of our eyebrows, but sometimes you have to make drastic changes in your eyebrow care routine, because their condition no longer suits us. You can go to the salon and get yourself beautiful eyebrows, but there is not always time and money for this. A little earlier, we talked in detail about eyelash lamination . Now let's see how to do eyebrow lamination (or as this procedure is also called - LONG-TERM EYEBROW STYLING) at home using professional materials.
You can often hear from some "Internet specialists" that eyebrow lamination and long-term eyebrow styling are different things, that after lamination you can no longer comb your eyebrows, etc. ... However, in fact, these are just different names for one and the same procedure. For example, when laminating eyelashes , almost the same technology and almost the same materials are used as for long-term styling of eyebrows. It's just that some people like one name, and some another.
So, long-term eyebrow styling, step-by-step:
HOW THE PROCEDURE OF LONG-TERM EYEBROW STYLING WORKS
This procedure gives your eyebrows not only a caring effect, but also has a healing effect. In our turbulent times, with the constant adverse effects of the environment, a therapeutic effect is simply necessary.
With all this, the whole technology is quite simple: several products are applied alternately to the eyebrows, which simultaneously fix the hairs, strengthen them, and saturate them with useful substances. All this helps to accelerate the growth of hairs in the direction we need, which naturally corrects the shape of the eyebrow. The procedure is absolutely painless and does not take too much time, but the effect of its use is impressive.
These goals are achieved thanks to the keratin contained in one of the formulations, so this procedure is sometimes called keratin eyebrow lamination. The rest of the formulations contain vitamins and oils that are very useful for hair.
In the process, you can use pigment and give the eyebrows the color you need. Moreover, you can change the color by several tones at once and it will last at least one month, and the shape of the eyebrows itself will be even longer.
The procedure will take about an hour (everything will depend on the "obedience" of the hairs in your eyebrows). After that, you can safely go and do your daily business. However, there is a recommendation - try not to let water get on your eyebrows for 24 hours.
WHAT COMPOSITIONS FOR LAMINATION TO BUY
You can, of course, use gelatin. There are plenty of such “gelatin” recommendations on the net, but we want to get the maximum benefit for our eyebrows and do everything “like in the Salon”. Therefore, below I will list those drugs that are used in salons and which you can safely use at home. So you will need:
- Silicone brush for combing eyebrows
- A degreaser (Primer) can be purchased, for example, the same as used in eyelash extensions, for example THIS one , inexpensive and of high quality.
- Glue for fixing hairs, 5ml
- Special formulations (the same as for eyelash lamination) - Composition No. 1, Composition No. 2, Composition No. 3. (firms Barbara, LVL, Vivienne, etc.). Some compositions are sold in sachets at the rate of 4 eyelash lamination sessions, the consumption on the eyebrows will be approximately 2-2.5 times more, consider this point.
- Botox for eyelashes (Lash Botox), which strengthens, restores and heals hairs (purchased optional)
- Cleanser, Cleanser
- Special paint (pigment) for eyebrows and a special brush for this
- Cotton buds
PROCEDURE FOR LAMINATION (LONG-TERM STYLING) OF EYEBROWS, STEP-BY-STEP
- Eyebrows are prepared for the session, clean them from the remaining makeup, dirt and excess oil with the usual means. Then, with a degreaser and a microbrush, clean the eyebrow hairs. This is necessary so that most of the beneficial trace elements contained in the compositions used in lamination are completely absorbed by the hairs.
- After that, you need to apply a small layer of glue to the eyebrows to fix the hairs. Then slowly and carefully distribute the hairs in the desired direction and give them the desired shape with a silicone brush.
- The next step is to apply COMPOSITION No. 1 on the hairs with a thin layer (opens the scales on the hairs, and prepares them for saturation with the necessary trace elements from other compounds). Try to do this closer to the roots so that the hairs after this procedure "look" in the right direction, and then distribute the composition along the entire length of the hairs to soften coarse hairs and straighten those that are curly. Leave the composition for 8 - 12 minutes (depending on the thickness and density of the hairs).
To enhance the effect of this composition, after application, you can carefully cover the brows with cling film, and put cotton pads on top of the film, moistening them with warm water. Then cover with a towel to keep warm.
- After the required time, completely remove Composition No. 1 with a dry cotton swab. Do this strictly in the direction of hair growth.
- After that, we apply COMPOSITION No. 2 (vitamin composition). We also leave it to "work" for 4 - 6 minutes (depending on how long you set Composition No. 1).
- After the required time, completely remove Composition No. 2 with a dry cotton swab. Do this strictly in the direction of hair growth.
- Before you apply the paint on the eyebrows, you need to clean the hairs from the remnants of the fixing glue. Carefully remove all glue from the eyebrows using a Q-tip soaked in the Cleanser.
- We start coloring the eyebrows using a special eyebrow paint and a brush. Important(!): Eyebrow coloring with henna should be carried out 24 hours after you have carried out the procedure for fixing the eyebrows. In this case, dyeing eyebrows with chemical dyes is not required.
- Then, after the required time has passed, we remove the paint, first with a dry cotton swab, and then with the Cleanser.
- After that (if desired), Botox (Lash Botox) is applied, which is used in the lamination of eyelashes, which strengthens, restores and heals the hairs, making them brighter and stronger over time.
- Then we apply COMPOSITION No. 3 - the final composition (Moisturizing and Nutrition), envelops and closes the scales of hairs, fixes their direction and increases volume. This product does not wash off. Eyebrow lamination completed.
Remember(!) : Try not to wet your eyebrows during the first 24 hours (do not take baths or showers, do not engage in active physical exercises, do not get caught in the rain😄, and also visit baths or saunas).
IMPORTANT(!) : Eyebrow correction is carried out only after the procedure of long-term eyebrow styling. Before the procedure, do not peel or use scrubs in the eyebrow area. If you want to lighten your eyebrows, then do it BEFORE the lamination procedure.
