Frequently asked brow questions.
How do I prepare for my brows?
Before your treatment, avoid applying any lotions or creams to the treatment area. Bring examples of what you would like for the end brow result and share those with your esthetician.
Should I stop taking any medications before my treatment?
You should inform your practitioner of any medications or supplements you are taking before your treatment. In some cases, it may be necessary to stop taking certain medications, like retinols, prior to your treatment.
What are the potential side effects from solutions or brow services?
Temporary redness or swelling can occur, please let your esthetician know if you have had reactions to brow or lash perm solutions in the past.
How long does the brow lamination procedure take?
A typical brow lamination appointment takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes. This includes the application of the lamination solution, setting solution, and optional tinting if desired.
Is there anything I should avoid before my lash lift appointment?
Yes, avoid using waterproof mascara and oil-based eye makeup removers in the days leading up to your appointment. These products can affect the adherence of the lifting solution.
How should I care for my brows post-brow lamination?
After the treatment, avoid getting your brows wet for the first 24 hours. Also, refrain from using oil-based products around your brows, as they can weaken the lamination. Regularly brushing your brows with a clean spoolie helps maintain the desired shape.
