Preparation before your Brow Lamination treatment begins:

Before your brow lamination, you will have a quick consultation with our brow expert to determine the brow style and shape that you want.

Very little preparation is needed for your brow lamination appointment with us, although the process will be quicker if you arrive without makeup or products on your eyebrows. Avoid plucking your eyebrows or using any exfoliating acids or retinol on the area for a week prior to your treatment.

If you have rosacea, eczema, very sensitive skin, or a history of contact dermatitis, we will discuss the best way to approach the treatment and assess if it’s right for you.

If you like, your brow lamination can be applied at the same time as a lash lift, for double the beauty benefits in one treatment session. For more details, see our brow lamination and lash lift treatment page.

To start, our brow artist will apply a cream solution all over your eyebrows to relax the brow hairs. This solution will allow the hairs to be straightened and manipulated into a uniform shape.

Our brow artist will brush your brow hairs upwards and into the desired shape, fixing any gaps in the brows and managing those unruly hairs. The brows are then covered with plastic wrap and left to set in place for 10 minutes.

Once the first cream has been removed, we will apply a neutraliser to keep brows in place, leaving it to set again for another 10 minutes. At this stage, we can add brow tinting if desired, and tweeze or wax any stray hairs.

The brow treatment will finish with a nourishing oil, which will smooth your brows, prevent skin irritation and combat any dryness that may be caused by the chemical solutions used.

After this, you’re ready to leave our clinic with beautiful, feathery brows!

Eyebrow Lamination Aftercare:

After your brow lamination, it’s very important that you avoid getting your brows wet for 24 hours, as water can ruin the effectiveness of the chemical treatment. You should also avoid hot or steamy environments, sweaty workouts, makeup, facial/eyebrow oils, and sleeping on your eyebrows for 24–48 hours after the treatment.

You may see some slight redness around your eyebrows directly after the treatment, but this should subside within a few hours.

To maintain your eyebrows, apply a brow conditioner or some castor oil every day and brush your brows into place with a spoolie. You can also use a brow gel and/or pencil to perfect their shape as you see fit. If your brows get wet in the shower, brush them upwards after you’ve dried off to encourage them to maintain their shape. Your laminated brows should last around 6–8 weeks if maintained properly!

Brow lamination is an excellent beauty treatment for anyone who wants to make their brows fuller and thicker, without the needles or permanent tinting that come with microblading treatments.

Laminated brows are semi-permanent, and people love the long-term results they get from such a quick and non-invasive treatment process.

Eyebrow lamination can give a fuller brow to even sparse brows, as your own hair can be manipulated and tinted to fill out gaps – the results may surprise you! It’s a great way to combat thinning brows that have been over-plucked or are suffering from age-related hair loss.

The best news is that the resulting laminated brows are very low maintenance, and you’ll wake up with naturally full brows that makes your makeup routine a whole lot easier.

Thorough Aftercare Guidance for Eyebrow Lamination at Araya Beauty:

Immediate Post-Lamination Care (First 24 Hours):

• Avoid Water Exposure: Refrain from water exposure, including showers and swimming, for the first 24 hours after eyebrow lamination. This allows the lamination solution to fully set and ensures optimal results.
• Gentle Touch: Avoid touching or rubbing your eyebrows to prevent disruption of the lamination process. This helps maintain the shape and hold.
• No Makeup: Avoid applying makeup or skincare products to the eyebrow area during the initial 24 hours to allow the lamination to set without interference.
• 
  

Daily Care (After the First 24 Hours):

• Gentle Cleansing: Cleanse your eyebrows with a mild, sulfate-free cleanser daily. Gently pat the area dry to avoid disturbing the laminated shape.
• Avoid Oil-Based Products: Refrain from using oil-based products on the eyebrows, as they can break down the lamination solution and compromise the hold.
• Brush Regularly: Use a clean spoolie to brush through your laminated eyebrows daily. This helps maintain the desired shape and ensures even distribution of the lamination.
• 
  

Long-Term Care (Beyond the First Week):

• Avoid Harsh Ingredients: Refrain from using skincare products containing retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), or other harsh ingredients on the laminated eyebrows, as they can weaken the lamination.
• Eyebrow Oil or Serum: Consider using a nourishing eyebrow oil or serum on the brow hairs, avoiding the laminated area. This can promote overall eyebrow health without affecting the lamination.
• Limit Sun Exposure: Protect your laminated eyebrows from excessive sun exposure. If sun exposure is unavoidable, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to prevent fading.
• Professional Maintenance: Schedule regular appointments for eyebrow lamination touch-ups as recommended by your technician. This helps maintain the shape and ensures consistent results.
• 
  

Additional Brow Lamination aftercare Tips:

• Watch for Allergic Reactions: If you experience redness, itching, or discomfort, contact your technician promptly. It could indicate an allergic reaction or sensitivity to the lamination products.
• Avoid DIY Removal: Do not attempt to remove the lamination at home. If you wish to reverse the lamination, consult your technician for professional removal.
• 
  

Further Post-lamination Cautions:

• No DIY Removal: Do not attempt to remove your eyebrow lamination(s) at home, as this can lead to damage to your eyebrow hairs.
• Avoid Harsh Treatments: Refrain from undergoing harsh facial treatments, chemical peels, or laser procedures on the laminated eyebrows, as these can compromise the lamination.
