What is eyelash lamination?

It is a natural curling of the eyelashes, not only will


we lift them but we will also provide nutrients and
regenerate them.

The change in shape is permanent and lasts until the


eyelash is renewed. The eyelash renewal cycle lasts
between 45-60 days. During these days the hair
goes through three different phases:

-Anagen is the hair growth phase.

-Catagena is the resting phase.

-Telogen, is the phase in which the hair is detached from its root.

Therefore, when we are asked about the duration of the laminate, it will depend on the time of
renovation of each person.

What is the chemical hair perming process like?

Hair is chemically composed of 28% proteins, 2% lipids, 70% water and other substances. Of
the proteins, almost 90% are keratin. This keratin is held together by three types of bonds. The
"weakest" bonds are hydrogen bonds and salt bonds. When they come into contact with water,
they break (temporarily) and that is why wet hair is easier to comb. The strongest bonds are
disulfide bonds, but if heat is applied, they can break, which is why blow-drying or flat ironing
can change the shape of the hair.

The permanent change is made by modifying the disulfide bridges. This is achieved in two
steps:

- Step 1 or REDUCTION PHASE. The active principle of the reductant has the task of breaking
the disulfide bonds or disulfide bridges. The opening of the scales that form the outer cuticle of
the hair is facilitated as the change of shape takes place in the cortex.

This phase is a chemical-physical process since with the molds or curlers we stretch the hair to
give it the new shape.
- Step 2 NEUTRALIZING. In this phase there is only a chemical process whose function is to fix
the new form. The active ingredient is responsible for fixing new disulfide bridges thus fixing the
new hair structure.

What care should we take?


Care is limited to the first 24 hours, during which they should not be wet or made up, nor should
they be used in saunas or steam baths, and they should not be rubbed to prevent the shape
from changing.

If we would like to apply eyelash extensions we should wait a minimum of 72 hours.

If we would like to repeat the treatment we should allow 6 weeks for eyelashes and 5 weeks for
eyebrows to avoid damaging the hair excessively.

What is the procedure?


First we will use an eyelash cleaner to remove makeup residue and balance the pH, so that the
products adhere better to the eyelash. Rinse the foam very well with water.

We place patches to separate the bottom tabs.

We choose the appropriate mold and for this we must look at the length of the eyelash we are
going to work on and the elevation we wish to achieve, from a more natural effect to a more
extreme one. Glue the mold to the eyelid by slightly lifting the eyelid with your fingers so that it is
glued just above the lash line.

Hold the mold from the ends with your fingers and glue the tabs in sections, this is important to
prevent the glue from drying quickly. Lift the eyelashes making sure they are well directed.

We apply step 1 which is the one that will change the shape of the eyelash, we do it respecting
a millimeter without reaching the water line to avoid irritating the eye, we apply the product in
small touches so that it covers the entire eyelash without applying it to the tips.

We have to analyze what type of eyelash we have in front of us to determine the exposure time
of the product. In the case of a very thin eyelash, leave it on for 8 minutes and a very thick
eyelash for 12 minutes.

Remove with a completely dry cotton swab.

Apply step 2 or neutralizer. Here the product should be applied to the tips of the hair to ensure
that the entire area where step 1 was applied is neutralized. The exposure time is half the time
of step 1 plus two minutes.

Remove with a dry cotton pad and apply the dye. Mix one part of dye to two parts of diluent and
mix very well. Apply the color respecting 1 millimeter and let it act for 7 min. We remove.

We can apply a vitamin or botox product to regenerate the eyelashes.

We start cleaning the eyelashes with a lateral movement to detach the eyelashes from the mold
and also the mold from the eyelid.
What designs can we produce?

-Classic design. We direct all the eyelashes at a 90 degree angle.

-Cat eye. The lashes from the tear trough and the center of the eye would be directed at a 90-
degree angle and the lashes from the end of the eye outward to achieve an eye lengthening
effect.

What is eyebrow lamination?


It is a process with which we achieve a combed eyebrow effect by smoothing and directing the
most stubborn hair and fixing the shape of the eyebrow.

They must be eyebrow specific products as eyelash laminating products are stronger and can
irritate the skin.

What is the procedure?


First clean with foam and rinse with water to avoid makeup residues. The area to be worked on
must be dry so we go over the area with a completely dry cotton pad.

We make the eyebrow design with thread and trim the excess hair.

We can perform the lamination in two different ways depending on how unruly or curly the hair
we are going to work with is:

On the one hand we can apply the product and when it takes 2 minutes for the hair to soften we
can start shaping with a brush.

We can also use glue to fix always in sections so that the glue does not dry out and is easy to
work with.

Apply the product by dabbing it on the skin and leave it on for 12 minutes, covering it with cling
film to keep it warm. After this time, remove with a completely dry cotton swab and apply step 2
or neutralizer and let it act for half of step 1 plus two minutes.

We apply the dye, this step gives a makeup effect if we lightly dye the skin and we get an even
bushier eyebrow. To do this we must be very careful to draw a nice, straight line.

What designs can we make?


-Natural

-Lion mane, or lion mane, is thick and tousled eyebrows.
