One of the most popular procedures this year, eyelash lamination, can be called an alternative to eyelash extensions. We will try to present the most important nuances of this procedure asked among clients, but also to show the difference between gene lamination techniques, botox or microwave.
What does eyelash lamination mean?
Eyelash lamination is the extension, curvature and thickening of natural eyelashes with the help of special compositions, which allow beauty lovers to save time for makeup, because the lamination effect gives the feeling of applying a layer of mascara on the eyelashes. Eyelashes become longer, more flexible, with an ideal color and, at the same time, absolutely natural, subtly shaping the shape of the eyes.
How to do the eyelash lamination procedure
Eyelash lamination is a complex cosmetic procedure, which is performed in several stages.
- First of all , the eyelashes must be cleaned of cosmetics and degreased with a special solution.
This will allow the preparations to penetrate better into the hair. A special cream should be applied to the skin around the eyes to soften it and prepare it for the procedure.
Then, the shape is selected, which depends on the type of curvature we will have in the end. In this case, you need to be guided not only by your own preferences, but also by the natural length of your eyelashes.
- The most important step – positioning and fixing the eyelashes.
The lashes should be well stretched, separated from the roots to the tips, parallel to each other. Only in this case the result will be a beautiful one, and the eyelashes will look like millions.
- In the third stage, the master applies the chemical compounds consecutively.
The first composition acts on the keratin in the structure of the eyelashes in order to form the desired curvature.
The second composition neutralizes the action of the first, fixing the curvature. Between the first and second composition, care components can be applied.
- The next step is to color the eyelashes.
Depending on the type of procedure, the third chemical compound is applied at this stage – botox, keratin or nourishing oil.
- At the end of the procedure, the master must thoroughly clean the eyelid and the space between the eyelashes, to avoid allergic reactions.
The whole procedure takes about an hour.
Pros and cons. It is the lamination of harmful eyelashes
If eyelash lamination is performed by a qualified master, the procedure may not be harmful. On the contrary, lamination is safe and even useful to some extent.
Laminating the eyelashes nourishes the eyelashes, makes them healthier, and after this procedure the hairs do not fall out and do not change their shape after sleep.
Keratin and the oils in the composition strengthen the strands, the hair being covered with a thin film that protects it from the external influences of the environment.
However, before doing the rolling procedure, it is a good idea to consult a specialist. Even if they are few, there are still contraindications. If you have eye problems or are allergic to some components of rolling products, you may want to skip this method. Lamination is also contraindicated in pregnancy and lactation, when the effect of lamination may be unpredictable due to changes in the mother’s hormones.

Which procedure is more effective – laminar or eyelash extension

Consequently, by lamination you get a natural effect, “my eyelashes, only more beautiful”, and by extension you can “add a little drama”.
