LAMINATION

Want to wake up with polished eyebrows every morning?

Want to wake up with polished eyebrows every morning? Do you have unruly eyebrows that won’t stay in place? Bobbie Charles has your solution! Elleebana Elleeplex Profusion Eyebrow Lamination. Eyebrow lamination, also known as brow lift or brow taming, is an amazing new technique used on the brows to create voluminous, full, feathery eyebrows that are manipulated using only your natural eyebrow hair.  This treatment realigns the direction of your natural eyebrow hair growth and enhances the overall eyebrow shape. Our brow lamination delivers a similar effect to that of an eyebrow gel, adding fullness and volume by combing the eyebrow hairs over sparse areas and taming unruly hairs.

Results:

Eyebrow lamination results are GORGEOUS and visible right away, providing you instant gratification. Whether you prefer groomed, sleek eyebrows or brows that are fluffy, full and lifted; Bobbie Charles eyebrow lamination can help you achieve your dream eyebrows that are a breeze to maintain.

The Elleebana Elleeplex Profusion Eyebrow Lamination system we use is a 3-step process. When Step 1 is applied to the eyebrow hair, the chemical process breaks down the bonds within each hair follicle, allowing them to morph and move into a new shape. Following this, Step 2 is applied to the hair bond, remodelling it into the new shape. In step 3 we add a nourishing treatment into your tint as we finish the final look with an eyebrow sculpt and tint. Elleebana Elleeplex Advanced aftercare serum is then applied at the end of the treatment to restore moisture back into the eyebrows. Lastly is your ‘at home’ care for your stunning new laminated eyebrows! Your new eyebrow design and shape takes up to 48 hours to cure completely, this is why following the strict aftercare given to you for 48 hours post treatment is crucial.

Your eyebrows will look very sleek and appear slightly wet for approximately 24 hours after your treatment. Once washed your eyebrows will appear fluffier– if you prefer a wet look, this can be recreated using a brow gel.

The Elleebana Elleeplex Profusion Eyebrow Lamination system used in our Brisbane Brow Clinic has been custom formulated to be gentle on the eyebrow hair and delicate skin underneath. When performed correctly by a trained professional, Eyebrow Lamination does not cause any long-term damage to the eyebrow hair. 

It’s important to remember that as with any beauty or cosmetic service, there are potential risks involved. While Eyebrow Lamination has been found to cause very little damage, be sure to chat with your Bobbie Charles Brow Expert if you have sensitive skin, as chemicals can be irritating when used on such a delicate area. It is normal for the eyebrows to feel slightly dry post-procedure as we are chemically treating the brow hair. This is why we highly recommend the Elleebana Elleeplex Serum for aftercare, available to purchase in clinic.

We have safely performed many brow laminations on expectant or breast-feeding mothers, but as a precaution, please always check with your GP or Obstetrician.

Due to the hormonal fluctuations whilst pregnant or breastfeeding your hair cortex can change, making them more porous than normal.

This in fact means the product has difficulty processing and may lead to an underwhelming result – but with our knowledge and consultation, we can manage all expectations.

The Elleebana Elleeplex Profusion Eyebrow Lamination system we use in clinic uses customised ingredients that have been specifically formulated and balanced for use on brows. It is designed to perfectly shape and set brow hair, maintaining an appropriate PH level on delicate facial skin and not over processing the eyebrow hair.

Many technicians are using Lash Lift Solutions to perm the eyebrow hair. Lash Lift formulations vary greatly in terms of ingredients and PH levels. Many Lash Lift serums are much too harsh to be used on delicate eyebrow hair and sensitive facial skin. This often results in inconsistent results, damage to eyebrow hair, irritation of the skin and unsatisfactory results.
