Brow lamination aftercare

What are the aftercare rules after brow lamination?

Brands typically ask you to protect the set hairs during the first day and then to treat the brows gently.

The usual advice, to be confirmed by your specialist for the product used:

• Keep the brows dry and do not rub or touch them in the first day.
• Skip makeup, oils and heavy creams on the brows at first.
• Avoid steam, saunas and heavy sweating early on.
• Brush the hairs into place gently with a clean spoolie once you are told you can.

How long after a brow lamination can I shower or wash my face?

Brands typically ask you to keep the brows dry for the first day, so you can shower while keeping the water and the face cleanser off them.

Your specialist gives the exact wait for the products used. After that, wash the face as usual and pat the brows dry without rubbing.

Can I sleep on my side after brow lamination?

In the first day, sleeping on your back is the safest way to keep the brows from pressing into the pillow.

If you are a side sleeper, keep the pillowcase clean and try not to press the brow into it. A brow pressed flat at the wrong moment can set out of shape.

Can I wear brow makeup after brow lamination?

Not at first: brands ask you to leave brow makeup off during the first day, and after that light brow products are fine.

Use a tinted gel or pencil lightly and remove it gently, because rubbing at the brow shortens the result.

Can you wax brows before or after lamination?

Shaping and lamination work together, and the order depends on how your specialist works, so say you want shaping when you book.

Do not wax or tweeze the brows yourself right after lamination: the skin is sensitive and the set hairs can be pulled out of line. At kruLA shaping is a separate service, $20 for 30 min, on the brow shaping and tint page.

Does trimming brows after lamination damage them?

Trimming does not damage laminated brows, and it is best done lightly with small scissors and after the first days.

Cut only the longest stray hairs. Heavy trimming changes the shape the lamination set.

How do you remove brow lamination?

There is no product to take it off at home: brow lamination fades as the hairs grow out and are replaced.

Do not try to reverse it with chemicals. If the brows feel too stiff or too high, talk to your specialist. The duration guide explains how the result fades.

How do I nourish brows after lamination?

Once your specialist says the first period is over, a light conditioning brow serum or a little oil keeps laminated hairs from feeling dry.

Use a small amount with a clean spoolie, and avoid anything you are sensitive to. Ask your specialist which products suit the one used on your brows.

How do I tint brows after lamination?

Tint after lamination is usually done at the salon, and the timing depends on the products, so book it with your specialist and do not tint at home.

At kruLA tint is part of brow shaping and tint, $45 for 1 h. The tint and shaping guide covers the aftercare of a tint.

What ruins brow lamination?

Water, steam and rubbing in the first days, oil-based products, harsh skincare actives and picking or heavy trimming are what undo a laminated brow fastest.

Sleeping face down on a rough pillow and brushing the brows hard have the same effect. If something happens in the first days, call the salon and ask before you try to fix it yourself. See also the results guide.
