Brow lift
What is a brow lift and how long does it last? Find out everything about the procedure, how long it lasts, aftercare and the benefits for naturally styled eyebrows.
What is it?
A brow lift, also known as brow lifting or eyebrow lift, is a cosmetic treatment in which the natural eyebrow hairs are shaped into a new form and set. This makes the eyebrows look fuller, more defined and more even – entirely without permanent make-up.
A brow lift is particularly suitable for eyebrows whose hairs grow downwards, are unruly or are difficult to shape.
What is a brow lift?
A brow lift uses only your own eyebrow hairs. Special lotions first make them pliable, then they are brushed in the desired direction and finally set.
This creates the typical brow lift look: the hairs look orderly and fuller and are easier to style.
The treatment is sometimes also called brow lamination.
How does a brow lift work?
First, the eyebrows are thoroughly cleansed of make-up, sebum and other residues.
The treatment then takes place in several steps:
- The eyebrow hairs are made pliable with a special lotion.
- The hairs are brushed in the desired direction.
- Another lotion sets the new shape.
- The brows are then cared for and styled.
Depending on the desired result, the eyebrows can also be tinted or shaped.
How long does a brow lift last?
A brow lift usually lasts several weeks. Exactly how long the effect remains visible depends, among other things, on the individual hair structure and the growth cycle of your eyebrows.
Over time, new hairs grow and the treated brows renew themselves naturally. As a result, the lift effect slowly fades.
How long does a brow lift take?
The exact treatment time depends on the desired result and any additional services.
If, for example, the eyebrows are also tinted or styled, the treatment can take correspondingly longer.
Before the treatment, the brows are analysed and the desired look is agreed together.
What does a brow lift do?
A brow lift is especially suitable for people who want to emphasise their natural eyebrows more.
The benefits include:
- fuller-looking eyebrows
- more defined brow shape
- natural look
- only your own hairs
- less daily styling effort
- unruly hairs are easier to shape
- effect visible for several weeks
Especially with longer eyebrow hairs, brushing them upwards can create more visual volume.
Who is a brow lift suitable for?
A brow lift can be interesting if your eyebrows:
- grow in different directions
- are difficult to style
- should look fuller
- should have a more defined shape
- should need less styling in the morning
Before the treatment, it should always be assessed individually whether a brow lift is suitable for your brows.
Brow lift for thin eyebrows
A brow lift does not create new eyebrow hairs. It only changes the shape and direction of the hairs that are already there.
For very thin or patchy eyebrows, microblading can therefore be an alternative, for example.
Which method is more suitable depends on whether you want to style your existing hairs or visually add extra hairs.
Brow lift or microblading – what is the difference?
In a brow lift, the existing eyebrow hairs are shaped and set. It is a temporary cosmetic treatment.
In microblading, on the other hand, fine hair-like lines are pigmented to fill in the eyebrows visually.
Put simply:
Brow lift: shape existing hairs and make them look fuller.
Microblading: visually fill in missing or thin areas.
What should you bear in mind after a brow lift?
Immediately after the treatment, you should treat your eyebrows particularly gently.
Depending on the products and treatment method used, your beauty therapist will give you individual aftercare advice.
In general, you should avoid rubbing your brows hard or putting unnecessary strain on them immediately after the treatment.
With the right care, the freshly styled look can last as long as possible.
