Brow Lamination FAQ

 Brow lamination is essentially a "brow hair texturizing treatment".  It refers to a process in which a brow specialist "softens the hair follicle" using a chemical solution and then re-shapes, or sets, it into a more refined, lifted, smoother shape.

 If properly maintained, brow lamination can last anywhere from 3-5 weeks. 

For a quick overview of the cons, an Eyebrow Lamination shouldn't be done at home, works best with fuller brows, and may irritate already sensitive skin.

 You should avoid your brows coming into contact with water or steam for 24 hours after your treatment.
