Brow Lamination Aftercare: Help your Clients Keep their Brows Healthy, Full & Styled
Table of contents
The results of a brow lamination can be stunning — fuller-looking, perfectly placed brows that stay in shape without effort. But without the right brow lamination aftercare, those results can fade quickly — and in worse cases, brow hairs can become dry, frazzled, or even break.
This guide explains:
- What actually happens during a brow lamination
- How to assess your client’s needs after brow lamination
- Which home care products to recommend based on their goals
- What to avoid (and why)
What Happens During Brow Lamination?
Brow lamination uses the same chemical process as lash lifting: it softens and resets the disulfide bonds inside each brow hair to redirect their position. But with brow lamination, it’s not just the hair that’s affected — the skin underneath is also exposed to lifting and fixing lotions.
The result? Most clients leave the treatment with skin that’s slightly dehydrated and brow hairs that are soft, flexible, and vulnerable.

Without proper brow lamination aftercare, this can lead to:
- Flaky or irritated skin under the brows
- Patchiness or shedding
- Laminated brows losing shape too quickly
Step 2: Match the Product to the Goal
✅ Goal: Soothe the skin + support brow hair health
Recommend: Lash & Brow Filler
After brow lamination the EGF-based formula of Lash & Brow Filler helps repair the skin barrier while stimulating brow follicles to promote stronger, fuller, darker hair over time. It’s ideal for:
- Clients with irritated skin after lamination
- Anyone wanting denser, healthier brows
- Long-term regrowth and recovery
It’s also free from irritating ingredients, vegan, and safe during pregnancy.
✅ Goal: Styling and gloss without stiffness
Recommend: Lami Juice
Lami Juice was developed for both lashes and brows — and it works beautifully on both. It gives a hydrated, flexible hold that keeps brows in place without crunch or stiffness — unlike most brow gels.
Perfect for:
- Brow lamination customers who want softness and shape
- Makeup-free days when they still want to look polished
It’s important to note that no lash or brow serums should be applied to the eyebrow area for the first 48 hours after brow lamination. During this time, the skin is more vulnerable, and applying concentrated actives — even gentle ones — can cause unnecessary irritation. Let the skin settle before beginning any active growth or conditioning treatments.
What to Avoid
- Prostaglandin serums: Not designed for brows — they only help lengthen existing hair, not grow new ones. Plus, they can cause irritation.
- Heavy brow gels post-lamination: These can be too drying or stiff for freshly treated brows.
- Face creams over brows: Many clients use rich moisturizers on the entire face, but these aren’t targeted for brow health and may interfere with lamination results.
