While 90s-style eyebrows are making a comeback, not everyone is ready to embrace ultra-thin brows just yet. Fortunately, fluffy brows are just as trendy as their skinny counterparts. Eyebrows play a crucial role in framing the face and transforming your look, so giving them extra care is worth the effort. Brow lamination perms your hairs into place, saving you time and effort in your daily routine. If you’re hesitant to splurge on a professional treatment, you can achieve salon-quality results at home. For fuller, fluffy brows, scroll ahead to see how you can DIY your own brown lamination.
First things first, exercise patience and care as achieving flawless results may take practice, especially for first-timers. Begin by protecting the skin around your brows with a salve after removing all makeup and oils from your face. Using a spoolie, shape your brows with the ‘lifting’ treatment from your kit, following an upward and outward motion. Once dry, apply the perming solution, then cover with plastic wrap, following the instructions closely to avoid overprocessing.
After completing the perming step, apply the neutralizing formula for the same duration as the perm solution. Remove any residue with a dry cotton pad. To nourish and hydrate the area, consider using castor oil, which not only moisturizes but also strengthens the hairs and promotes growth.
Be sure to keep a 6 week break in between each DIY brow lamination session to avoid irritation. We know it seems intimidating but learning this process on your own is a game changer!
