Brow lamination is like a “perm” for your eyebrows that gives them a fuller, fluffier appearance. In this treatment, we apply a gentle lifting solution to your brow hairs to straighten and set them in an upward direction. This makes the brows look instantly thicker and neatly groomed, as all the hairs lie in the desired shape. The process also includes shaping the brows, and often we tint them for extra definition, giving you a bold yet natural look. The results are brushed-up, face-framing brows that can be styled easily each day (hairs stay in place better). Brow lamination effects last up to 6–8 weeks . During that time, your brows will stay looking fuller – you just comb them into place each morning. It’s great for taming unruly or sparse brows because it can cover gaps and make the most of the hairs you have. We finish the service with a nourishing serum to keep your brow hairs healthy. At Lashes & Lipstick, brow lamination has become a client favorite because it delivers Instagram-worthy brows without the commitment of microblading. You can learn more about our Brow Lamination service (which includes shaping and tint) on our site – it’s a fantastic way to get a bold brow look that lasts for weeks.

Eyebrow tinting is a quick, painless way to darken and define your brows using semi-permanent dye. We apply a gentle vegetable-based tint (available in various shades to match your hair or desired color) to your brow hairs, let it sit for a few minutes, and then wipe it off to reveal deeper, more pronounced brows. Tinting instantly makes lighter or sparse brows look fuller by catching all those tiny, fair hairs you can’t see, and even slightly staining the skin in the brow area for a more filled-in effect. The results typically last about 2 to 3 weeks on the brow hairs. The color will gradually fade as your brow hairs naturally shed or from cleansing routines. It’s a fantastic add-on if you’re already getting a brow wax or lamination – in fact, at Lashes & Lipstick we often include a tint with our brow lamination service for the best transformation. With tinted brows, you likely won’t feel the need to use brow pencil or powder every day, which is a time-saver. Just remember to avoid harsh exfoliants or oil-based cleansers around the brows to prolong your tint. If you’re curious, come by our Markham beauty bar – in just one 15-minute tint session, you’ll have bolder brows that frame your face beautifully. It’s one of those small treatments that delivers big impact!

It depends on your needs and comfort level. Brow lamination and microblading both aim to enhance the brows, but they’re totally different procedures. Lamination is non-invasive and temporary – we’re just styling your existing brow hairs to look fuller (lasting ~2 months). Microblading, on the other hand, is a form of cosmetic tattooing where tiny pigment strokes are added to the skin to mimic hairs, and results last 1–2 years. If you’re nervous about the commitment or want to avoid any tattooing, brow lamination is a fantastic option. It’s essentially like a blowout for your brows – quick, painless, and washes out over time. It’s especially good if you have a decent amount of brow hair to work with, even if it’s a bit thin or patchy. Microblading might be better if you have very little natural brow hair or want to reconstruct an entirely new brow shape. However, many of our clients find lamination gives them enough of a boost that they don’t feel the need for microblading. It’s also more affordable and lets you change your look as trends evolve. We actually wrote a whole blog post on alternatives to permanent makeup for brows – including why lamination can be a great substitute for microblading – so be sure to read that on our site for a deeper comparison. In short, if you want a fuller brow look without needles or permanence, lamination is likely your best bet. If you’re looking for a long-term fill-in and don’t mind the tattoo process, microblading could be considered. We’re happy to consult with you in Markham to help decide which brow route will achieve your dream look.
