The advantages of lamination
Do not assume that this procedure is completely safe. Like any cosmetic intervention, it can have disadvantages. How does the procedure for laminating eyelashes, we know. Now it is worth exploring the pros and cons. First, the positive. What is the procedure for laminating eyelashes?
Firstly, if there are no special allergic reactions, then the keratinization process is completely painless, without unpleasant reactions and sensations. What else girls like is that you can immediately return to your normal lifestyle, go out in the sun, work or walk with children. You can use cosmetics immediately even on top of the procedure. In addition, girls who have already tried all the charms of the procedure on themselves, say that even after the first procedure, the cilia become longer, fluffier, thicker and stronger, less often they fall out and break.
Cons of lamination
There are also disadvantages to this procedure. Insignificant, of course, in comparison with the result obtained, however, it is better not to violate these points. The essence of eyelash lamination is to strengthen and highlight the hairs. But do not expect miracles from her. If you have naturally sparse and short hairs, then miraculously they will not turn into thick and long “butterfly wings”. After the procedure, experts strongly recommend avoiding water on the eyes and eyelashes. The composition that was applied should be completely absorbed and fixed in each hair, and water helps to wash it off. It is recommended that girls with very short hairs refuse the process of lamination of eyelashes , as they can begin to bend in different directions.
If you have a cold like barley or conjunctivitis in your eyes, refuse the beauty offer. Visit a doctor, solve a health problem, and then boldly sign up for cosmetic procedures.
Which are there?
The types of eyelash lamination procedures are divided into three types: modeling, healing and dyeing.
The modeling type is suitable for owners of long and magnificent "wings". As a rule, long stiff ciliary hairs stick out in all directions. Such expensive brand mascara, which most often only aggravates the situation, adding volume or length, is not able to put such a long time. In this case, lamination is a salvation. After the procedure, eyelashes acquire a beautiful shape, a seductive bend appears, the eyes become more expressive and brighter.
The therapeutic type of procedure is also quite common. In this case, the product does not include keratin. Instead, the composition is saturated with a large number of vitamins, oils and various natural extracts. After the procedure, the eyelashes remain the same shape as they were, they are not added either length or volume. But thanks to the high concentration of nutrients, the cilia heal, look well-groomed, and gain luster. It is advisable to do this procedure after eyelash extension, when the eyelashes after long wearing artificial hard materials lose their elasticity, become brittle and are prone to severe loss due to a weakened bulb. For such eyelashes, lamination will be a salvation, however, at least three procedures must be performed to restore vitality and shine to them.
And staining. The process is the same as with conventional lamination. But coloring pigments are added to the active substances. The shade is chosen by the client from several possible, according to his color type and hair tone. When choosing a pigment color yourself, remember that eyelashes and eyebrows should be one tone darker than hair. This gives expressiveness to the eyes, and the eyes, as you know, are a mirror of the soul.
Pregnancy Lamination
Specialists will refuse to conduct the procedure for women who are expecting a baby. At first glance, it may seem that she is unable to do any harm, but doctors also recommend to abstain and go to the salon after a certain time after the birth of the baby.
The bottom line is that the process of eyelash lamination is directly related to the mucous membrane of the eye. And she, as you know, is an excellent conductor of viruses and all kinds of foreign chemicals. In this regard, absolutely any component can be transmitted to the whole body and the child.
In addition, during pregnancy, the hormonal background changes, body changes occur, as a result of which some of the components of the composition may simply not work. As a result, money will be thrown to the wind and spoiled mood. Yes, and it is not known how the eyelashes behave: they may not take a new shape: instead of twisting, stay straight. Or take the keratin composition unevenly and stain unevenly.
Botox for eyelashes
Another interesting eyelash treatment is Botox. It differs from lamination by the content of botulinum toxin and a number of additional components: collagen, panthenol, argan oil. This procedure makes eyelashes longer, more obedient, reduces hair loss. Eyelashes grow better, gain elasticity and shine. The procedure is a bit more complicated than lamination, and experts advise doing it only in the salon. One of the best qualities of lamination is that after the procedure you can immediately take a bath, shower, go for a swim in the pool or bask in the bath. Botox is not afraid of water.
Reviews
As for the reviews on the procedure for laminating eyelashes, then the women were divided into two camps. Satisfied with the procedure is much more, of course. Those to whom the beauty complex did not bring results are recognized that they made mistakes in the procedure.
The cost of the procedure in the salons
Lamination of eyelashes is an innovation in the field of cosmetology, therefore it refers to expensive services. The average cost varies from two thousand rubles in the middle class cabin. In luxury beauty salons, the price can be several times higher. Also, the cost of the procedures is strongly influenced by the quality of the materials used and the season.
As for the season. When planning a procedure, it is worth considering. The jump in prices is observed in the summer, when it is hot and the use of a large amount of cosmetics in some regions is not possible. Trips to the sea also do their job, where, firstly, the mascara does not last for a long time, is washed off, and secondly, in hot sunny weather, one does not want to paint his eyes at all. And I want to be beautiful. This is where the magic procedure for laminating eyelashes comes to the rescue. Winter is easier. However, in regions where frequent snowstorms and snowstorms are a common occurrence, the popularity of lamination is increasing, as snow gets on your eyes and spreads mascara.
