STAGES OF EYEBROW LAMINATION PROCEDURE
1) Diagnosis of Client's Eyebrow Hair Condition
Determine the exposure time for KeraSoft Eyelash and Eyebrow Lifting Serum Step 1 according to the following criteria:
1st group: thick, stiff, coarse eyebrow hairs, untreated with chemical compounds (tinting, bleaching) — exposure time: 8–10 minutes;
2nd group: medium thickness, natural, healthy eyebrow hairs or previously treated with chemical compounds (tinting, bleaching) — exposure time: 5–7 minutes;
NOTE! For eyebrow lamination, it is necessary to exclusively use KeraSoft Eyelash and Eyebrow Lifting Serum Step 1.
NOTE! The maximum exposure time for KeraSoft Eyelash and Eyebrow Lifting Serum Step 1 is 10 minutes.
NOTE! The room temperature directly affects the product's activity — the higher the temperature, the faster the reaction rate.
The exposure time for KeraBoost Eyelash and Eyebrow Fixing Serum Step 2 is 7 minutes and is independent of the client's eyebrow hair condition and the exposure time for KeraSoft Eyelash and Eyebrow Lifting Serum Step 1.
2) Preparation for Eyebrow Lamination Procedure
Use ELAN DETOX FOAM to cleanse the eyebrow hairs and skin before the eyebrow lamination procedure. Remove the foam with a cotton pad moistened with water.
3) Brow Shaping - KeraSoft Eyelash and Eyebrow Lifting Serum Step 1
NOTE! If the client has thin and sensitive skin, it is necessary to apply ELAN SKIN PROTECTOR protective cream with argan cream oil to the eyebrows (thin layer) and the areas of skin around the eyebrows (thick layer).
NOTE! If the client has sensitive skin and thin eyebrow hairs, in addition to applying the protective cream ELAN SKIN PROTECTOR, add 1 drop of KeraCare Eyelash and Eyebrow Care Serum Step 3 to KeraSoft Eyelash and Eyebrow Lifting Serum Step 1 and mix thoroughly before applying to the eyebrows.
3.1 Apply KeraSoft Eyelash and Eyebrow Lifting Serum Step 1 to the eyebrows. Exposure time: 5–10 minutes.
NOTE! The maximum exposure time should not exceed the exposure time for the selected hair group.
3.2 After the exposure time has elapsed, remove the remaining product using a cotton pad moistened with water.
NOTE! During the eyebrow shaping stage, it is essential to consider the direction of the client's hair growth. Changes should be gradual to avoid bends.
4) Eyebrow Hair Direction Fixation - KeraBoost Eyelash and Eyebrow Fixing Serum Step 2
NOTE! If the client has thin and sensitive skin, it is necessary to apply ELAN SKIN PROTECTOR protective cream with argan cream oil to the eyebrows (thin layer) and the areas of skin around the eyebrows (thick layer).
4.1 Apply KeraBoost Eyelash and Eyebrow Fixing Serum Step 2 to the eyebrows and distribute it evenly over the entire surface, carefully laying the hairs in the desired direction. Exposure time: 7 minutes.
4.2 After the exposure time has elapsed, remove the remaining product using a cotton pad moistened with water or ELAN DETOX FOAM. If using foam, remove the foam with a cotton pad moistened with water.
5) Eyebrow Hair Care - KeraCare Eyelash and Eyebrow Care Serum Step 3
After applying KeraBoost Eyelash and Eyebrow Fixing Serum Step 2 or undergoing an eyebrow tinting procedure, apply KeraCare Eyelash and Eyebrow Care Serum Step 3 to the pre-cleansed eyebrow area and distribute it evenly. Leave it on until fully absorbed. The product does not require rinsing.
NOTE! If an eyebrow tinting procedure is planned after completing the lamination procedure, apply KeraCare Eyelash and Eyebrow Care Serum Step 3 after applying the ELAN COLOUR FIX colour fixing fluid.
NOTE! If an eyebrow tinting procedure is planned after completing the lamination procedure, apply KeraCare Eyelash and Eyebrow Care Serum Step 3 as a care product after the tinting procedure.
NOTE! If an eyebrow tinting procedure is planned after completing the lamination procedure, apply KeraCare Eyelash and Eyebrow Care Serum Step 3 as a product that minimizes the darkening of the eyebrow hairs before the tinting procedure.
NOTE! Eyebrow correction should be performed exclusively after the lamination procedure. It is recommended to use tweezers for correction to minimize skin damage.

RECOMMENDATIONS AFTER EYELASH LIFTING AND EYEBROW LAMINATION
! It is not recommended to tint eyebrows with henna or undergo eyebrow bleaching procedures, as the result can be extremely unpredictable: the hair structure may be disrupted (dry, dull hair), which can lead to breakage and hair loss.
! For 24 hours after the procedure, avoid visiting the sauna, steam room, or tanning bed, do not allow mechanical disruption of the eyebrow shape or eyelash curl (sleeping face down on a pillow), and do not comb eyebrows and eyelashes.
! For 48 hours after the procedure, avoid using aggressive cosmetic products and procedures on eyebrows and eyelashes (scrubs, peels, alcohol-containing lotions, laser procedures).
RESTRICTIONS ON LASH LIFTING AND EYEBROW LAMINATION PROCEDURES
Absolute restrictions include individual sensitivity to the components in the products used, any skin damage in the eyebrow and eye area, redness, eruptions of any origin, allergic reactions, as well as tanning bed usage, and laser procedures within 24 hours before lash lifting and/or eyebrow lamination.
PRECAUTIONS
KeraSoft contains thioglycolates and ammonia, KeraBoost contains hydrogen peroxide, and KeraTint contains phenylenediamines, toluene-2,5-diamines, and resorcinol. These products may cause an allergic reaction. Before use, it is necessary to perform an allergy test: apply 2 drops of each product to a small area of skin on the inner elbow 48 hours before use. If no redness, swelling, or irritation occurs, you may proceed with the procedure.
For professional use only. Read and follow the application instructions. Use protective gloves. For external use only. Do not use metal objects while working with the products. Avoid contact with eyes. If the product comes into contact with the eyes, rinse immediately with water. In case of an allergic reaction, consult a dermatologist.
KeraTint is not intended for use by persons under 16 years of age. Temporary black henna tattoos may increase the risk of allergy. Do not use the tint if you have:
– a rash on the face or sensitive, irritated, or damaged scalp skin;
– experienced any reaction after hair or eyelash coloring;
– had a reaction to a temporary black henna tattoo in the past.
