If you love the look of full, lifted, and well-groomed brows, chances are you’ve already heard of brow lamination. Often described as a “perm for your eyebrows,” this beauty treatment has skyrocketed in popularity due to its ability to create a sleek, uniform shape that lasts for weeks.
But one question clients ask us time and again at Signature Brows Downey is:
“How often should I get brow lamination done?”
Let’s break it down with expert advice, science-backed timing, and a bit of guidance to help you maintain brows that always look polished.
What Is Brow Lamination? A Quick Refresher
Brow lamination is a semi-permanent procedure that restructures your eyebrow hairs to keep them in a desired shape. Using a chemical solution, your brow hairs are lifted upward and set into place, giving you that brushed-up, fuller appearance—no gel, no pomade, and no daily hassle.
It’s ideal for:
- Gaps or sparse areas
- Unruly or downward-growing brows
- Thin brows needing volume
- Clients who want low-maintenance beauty
So, How Often Should You Get Brow Lamination?
Every 6 to 8 Weeks
According to brow professionals and skin care experts, the ideal time between brow lamination sessions is 6 to 8 weeks. This window allows:
- Your natural brow hair to complete its growth cycle
- Your skin and follicles to recover from the previous treatment
- Enough time for the lamination effects to fade naturally, so you avoid over-processing
Going in too soon can lead to:
- Over-treated brow hairs that become brittle
- Potential skin irritation
- Loss of natural texture or pigment
Factors That May Affect Brow Lamination Frequency
Your Hair Type
If you have coarse or unruly brows, you might see results fade a little faster and may prefer touch-ups around 6 weeks. Fine or thinner brow hairs often retain the effect longer—up to 8–9 weeks.
Your Aftercare Routine
Proper aftercare extends the life of your lamination. Avoiding oil-based products, heavy makeup, or constant brushing will keep your brows intact longer.
Your Skin Type
Those with oily skin may notice the results don’t last quite as long due to faster product breakdown. In such cases, clients may return closer to the 6-week mark.
Signs It’s Time to Book Your Next Brow Lamination
Here are some clear signs your brows are ready for their next lift:
- Your brow hairs have started to drop or curl downward again
- The laminated shape has lost hold or symmetry
- You’re seeing natural brow gaps reappear
- It’s been 8 weeks or longer since your last session
If you’re unsure, book a consultation with our brow experts at Signature Brows Downey. We’ll assess your brow condition and recommend the perfect timeline for you.
How to Extend the Life of Your Brow Lamination
Want your brow lamination to last longer? Follow these aftercare tips from our licensed estheticians:
Avoid water and steam for at least 24 hours post-treatment
Skip oil-based cleansers and serums near the brow area
Don’t sleep on your face to avoid disrupting hair direction
Use a brow conditioner or serum recommended by your brow tech
Gently brush your brows daily to maintain the laminated shape
Is Brow Lamination Safe Long-Term?
Yes—when done professionally and with the right timing. Overdoing brow lamination can stress your hair follicles, but properly spaced treatments every 6–8 weeks pose no risk.
