Brow lamination is becoming increasingly popular – it gives the eyebrows a well-groomed, fuller, and more defined look. However, one step is especially crucial before applying the fixative: correctly distributing the brow hairs. At MONLIS School in Munich, we teach future brow professionals how to execute this process properly – for symmetrical and lasting results.
Why Is Proper Distribution So Important?
Before fixation, the hairs are shaped into the desired direction. This phase determines how the final brows will look: natural or artificial, symmetrical or uneven. Incorrect distribution can result in gaps, asymmetrical arches, or a messy finish. At MONLIS, our students learn to analyze individual hair growth and execute each step deliberately.
Step-by-Step: How to Properly Distribute Eyebrow Hairs
1. Preparing the Brows
The brows must first be thoroughly cleaned and degreased. Residual makeup, oils, or skincare products can negatively impact the outcome. A gentle cleansing foam and alcohol-free toner prepare the skin optimally.
2. Analyzing Natural Hair Growth
Each brow is unique – that’s why understanding natural growth patterns is essential. Some hairs grow upward, others sideways or slightly downward. These directions must be considered to create a balanced shape.
3. Brushing with the Right Tool
A fine lash or brow brush is ideal for precise hair positioning. Work gently in the direction of growth – for gaps, individual hairs can be shifted slightly to create a fuller appearance.
4. Following Facial Structure and Brow Mapping
At MONLIS School, we place great importance on facial proportions. The ideal brow shape follows the golden ratio: the start point, arch, and tail must align with the facial features. This ensures a harmonious and aesthetic overall result.
5. Applying the Fixing Gel
Only after all hairs are correctly positioned is the fixing gel applied. It’s important not to move the brush afterward – any adjustment after the fixative is applied can result in uneven results.
Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
Using too much pressure when brushing: This can cause breakage. MONLIS recommends gentle, precise movements.
Ignoring hair whorls or sparse areas: These areas require individual attention – usually by adjusting nearby hairs slightly.
Lack of proper training: Without knowledge of brow architecture theory and practice, optimal results are unlikely. That’s why proper education at MONLIS is essential.
