Keratin biolamination

Even when carrying out the procedure in a domestic environment, it will not be possible to save significantly. The necessary components for the improvement of eyelashes that meet all the requirements of professionals will cost 1500-1800 rubles.

The low price of biolamination in a beauty salon indicates the use of materials of dubious quality by the masters... Perhaps the specialist works recently, did not have time to work out the technique. An attempt to save money may result in an unsuccessful procedure.

No special care is required after the procedure. It is allowed to sleep on your stomach. This will not affect the shape of the eyelashes. Despite the usefulness of biolamination, you need to take a responsible attitude to the choice of a master. It is important to analyze the experience, reviews, ask what materials the specialist works with.

Recommendations and precautions

The first thing to do before lamination is to check the body for possible allergic reactions. Apply a small amount to the wrist or the inside of the bend of the elbow. If within 15 min. the skin remains unchanged - the procedure can be carried out.

When redness, itching, burning, rashes appear, lamination must be abandoned. When performing the procedure at home, the dye composition is allowed to be applied to the ends of the hairs.

They are distinguished by a lighter shade, in contrast to the root part. This will keep pigment out of your eyes. After a cosmetic event, you need to give up washing for a day.

Reasons for prohibiting lamination:

• Inflammation of the organs of vision.
• Wounds, pimples on the upper, lower eyelids.
• Recently performed operations.
• Allergy to the components of the product.
• Lachrymation.

Analysis of the state of health will protect against possible unpleasant consequences.

Is it possible to paint after lamination

After the procedure, the eyelashes look expressive, but some girls tend to give them more volume with the help of mascara. This can be done, but only in a day. Straight after lamination, the hairs are vulnerable. Cosmetics will minimize the medical and cosmetic effect.

Within 24 hours after the session, you cannot use:

• decorative cosmetics;
• make-up remover;
• scrub,
• soap,
• foam for washing,
• services of a bath, sauna, swimming pool, solarium.

This will strip the lashes of a significant portion of the keratin. On the second day after lamination, all restrictions are removed. However, it is not recommended to use waterproof, fortified mascaras. They should be applied with light, non-pressing movements, avoiding a thick layer. Excess makeup will weigh down the hair.

Better to use mascara with a wide, long bristle brush... They will gently color your laminated lashes. The composition should not contain alcohol, acid. It is allowed to wash off cosmetics with a special foam, in which there are no aggressive substances.

Comparison of lamination with botox for eyelashes

Botox serum is based on:

• Keratin strengthens the hair structure.
• Collagen gives elasticity, eliminates fragility.
• Hyaluronic acid accelerates cell regeneration.
• Natural oils give shine.
• Panthenol eliminates irritation.
• Tocopherol acts as an antioxidant.
• B vitamins fill the structure with moisture.

When exposed to the components, eyelashes become healthy, better resist external factors.

Cosmetic effect of botox:

• graceful bend;
• visual lengthening;
• increase in volume;
• increased color intensity;
• no tangled hair.

This creates the appearance of eyelash extensions. Botox, in contrast to lamination, is also suitable for owners of short eyelashes. Disadvantages of Botox lashes: price 2000 rubles, duration 2-3 hours.

Botox is contraindicated for:

• individual intolerance to the components of the composition;
• recent eye surgeries;
• inflammation of the eyes;
• pregnancy, breastfeeding;
• taking hormonal drugs;
• long-term use of antibiotics;
• critical days.

With all the advantages of Botox, it loses to lamination only in one thing - the duration of the procedure. Otherwise, the result of the techniques is similar.

Possible consequences

When deciding on lamination, you need to be aware of the possible consequences. Masters do not recommend the procedure for pregnant, lactating women. Keratin is useful, but its excess for an embryo, an infant, is dangerous. It is not recommended to do the procedure in case of illness, increased sensitivity of the organs of vision.

It is important to make sure there are no allergies.

Otherwise, in addition to expressive eyelashes, there will be redness on the skin, tearing of the eyes. In the first days, a feeling of oily eyelashes is possible. Owners of short eyelashes should not expect a good result. The hairs are saturated with vitamins, but they will not look presentable.

It is important to know! Keratin is a protein essential for hair and nails. Eyelash lamination is a useful and effective procedure. According to statistics, 70% of girls prefer to do the procedure in beauty salons, despite the fact that with some skill, it can be done efficiently and at home.
