It's 2020 and we have *arrived*
I was recently out with my Beauty BFF Amanda when she asked if I had heard about brow lamination. As the queen of looking (and acting) like I'm "low maintenance" I had to hear more. Basically it's a lash lift for your brows, and it's the best thing since sliced bread. Stay tuned for a *lot* of photos of my brows and an in depth explanation of the process.
The technique was developed in Russia, and is quickly making a name for itself in early-adopting salons across the US. Lamination is a great first step or alternative to Microblading-- I have big brows, but Lamination is a solid option for any gapping, overplucked or thinning brows.
Back story: I have loong eyebrows. I'm not complaining, but without my trusty 3-layer brow-gel sculpting technique they are curling & flying all over the place like Nosferatu. To add some excitement & danger, I have never had anyone touch my brows. I don't pluck them, haven't had them waxed, and they are in their full natural bushy curly glory. I put it all on the line for brow lamination and I now have perfect brows for EIGHT beautiful carefree weeks.
Thank you Amanda for helping us put this together: her team at Iris + West Lash Co. is Los Angeles' best-kept secret for all things lashes & brows. Definitely pay them a visit if you're in LA. <3 Pro tip: if you want to do a bit of brow rehab before your lamination, try rubbing Lil Prick Cacts Seed Dry Serum over your brows during your skincare routine. I get DMs every week praising the natural oils in LP for their hair regrowth effects :)
Step 1: Clean & Shape Your lil pups need to be squeaky clean to accept the product as effectively as possible. With her spoolie, Amanda is combing the brows in place to see what the best look is for my face shape & brow density.
Step 2: Flatten & Fine Comb Here, Amanda is using a spoolie to apply a water-based adhesive to set my brows into the desired shape. From there, she's using a fine pic to make sure each of my curly bbs is perfectly straight. This isn't normally in the process, but Amanda is a perfectionist and my brows have a mind of their own :)
Step 3: Apply Lifting Solution Maybe the most fun part. She's essentially applying a perming solution that not only straightens my brow hairs, but lifts them in a vertical direction. It's semi-permanent soapbrows and I'm here for it. Then Amanda covers my brows in saran wrap to keep them straight, flat, and unjostled.
Step 4: Neutralize with Lamination Solution After the brows have been lifted for 5 minutes, laminate for another 5 minutes. Look how crisp these babies are starting to look.
Step 5: Remove Product You're almost done..
Step 6: Final Touches If you don't have huge caterpillars, you'll likely already be done. But if your brows need any extra juujing, Amanda goes in to point trim your brows. For a natural look, make sure your technician does not cut your brow hairs straight across the top.
Ahh, the wonders of brow lamination. I've had mine for about two weeks and am in LOVE. They are a little less vertical from the first day when these photos were taken, and still very much large and in charge. I actually like them more and more each day as they settle in. The hairs are still totally moveable so you can brush & style them however you please.
Here I am, today, two weeks into my new beauty addiction that I'll never go without.
And since I know you want it, here's a before & after. Oddly satisfying, isn't it?

All you need is to hire an expert to help you accomplish that. If there’s any need to spy on your partner’s phone. From my experience I lacked evidence to confront my husband on my suspicion on his infidelity, until I came across ETHICALAHCKERS which many commend him of assisting them in their spying mission. So I contacted him and he provided me with access into his phone to view all text messages, call logs, WhatsApp messages and even her location. This evidence helped me move him off my life . I recommend you consult ETHICALHACKERS009 @ gmail.com OR CALL/TEXT +1(716) 318-5536 or whatsapp +14106350697 if you need access to your partner’s phone
BEST AGENCY TO RECOVER LOST OR STOLEN CRYPTOCURRENCY
I recommend Hack Recovery KEVIN M HACKER to anyone who needs this service. I decided to get into crypto investing and lost my crypto to an investor late last year. The guy who was supposed to manage my account was a fraud the whole time. I invested $180,000 and at first my read and profit margins looked good. I got worried when I couldn’t make withdrawals and realized I had been tricked. I found some testimonials that people had to say about Hack Recovery KEVIN M HACKER and how helpful it was in getting their money back. I immediately contacted him via. Email: kevinmitnick100@hackermail.com, Telegram @Kelvinmhacker or WhatsApp via: +1-256-956-4498, and I’m sure you will be happy you did.
I made an initial investment of roughly $380,000 on a Coastal Trading Options. After several transactions, I chose to withdraw my money because according to the website I had made a lot of profits, however the withdrawal was unsuccessful. I made several attempts in contacting them but it all failed. I made every effort and filed a report to recover my money by contacting the police department in charge of investigating fraudulent situations, but nothing was successful. Since my attempt with the police failed, I tried other possible means to make sure I recovered my scammed bitcoin. I reached out to a hacker whose reviews I had read online; Recovery Nerds, I contacted him via his email on: mailus @ recoverynerds . com, Website: https: // recoverynerds . com/ Whatsapp: +15143122803 He came in handy and at the right time. He rescued me from these shady investment schemes with the help of their top-notch services. I got my funds back as well as my peace of mind.
