Eyebrow extension: features and technique of the procedure

An important role in the appearance of a woman is played by eyebrows. According to fashion trends, they vary in thickness, bending and color saturation. In order to help the fair sex in this matter, in modern cosmetology there is a special technology that allows you to build eyebrows.

It is no secret that eyebrows, as well as eyelashes or hair, can fall out, get damaged, lose their beauty. Similar situations arise against the background of a general malaise due to serious illnesses or under the influence of external factors. As a result, the hairs become brittle, during the damage to the hair follicles, the eyebrows become thinner, bald spots form on them. Of course, you can try to solve this issue with decorative cosmetics, for example, tinting them with a pencil or eyeliner, but such events will need to be regularly and constantly monitored so that the cosmetics are not smeared from careless movement, precipitation or activities in the pool, bathing in a pond.

Modern cosmetology offers to solve this problem with the help of a procedure such as eyebrow extensions, which, in contrast to the above methods, will make it possible to preserve the natural appearance of this area on the face for a long time. In beauty salons, hair extensions as well as eyelashes have been actively and for a long time been used, so this technology is not innovative, however, according to reviews, it has a lot of positive characteristics.

Eyebrow extension is a process that allows you to give them the necessary density and shape by increasing the number of hairs, that is, in fact, it is the exact opposite of the method of eyebrow correction using plucking.

The extension is done without any unpleasant pain, the main thing is to determine exactly the color of the hairs and the bend of the eyebrows. The material for the procedure is implemented in a set with an adhesive composition for fixing, in addition, manufacturers presented catalogs of these products, allowing you to choose the color of hairs that are as identical as possible to women. In addition, you can not only increase eyebrows in the cabin, but also, with some skill, perform the procedure at home with your own hands.

Correction technology involves gluing individual hairs, a bundle or a whole strip to the skin on a special composition. Depending on each specific case, the quantity and type of material used are selected. In addition, there are several ways to perform building. Sometimes you can find erroneous information that tattooing or microblading is also a type of eyebrow extension, but this is a mistake, because such cosmetic procedures only color the skin, and do not add new hairs to this area.

The procedure for hair extensions eyebrows today is very popular. The essence of the method is to add artificial hairs to existing ones. This is done in two different ways.

It is worth noting several varieties of building.

• You can choose piece gluing, which creates the most natural effect. This procedure is quite painstaking, but in the end it will be almost impossible to distinguish between your own and glued hairs from each other. In addition, you do not need to remove your hair at all.
• The second technique is to build using special strips. To perform this work, the master uses pads made of silicone or latex, on which there is already glued hair. The material is completely invisible on the skin, the selected technique takes significantly less time to complete, in addition, it is this type that is more in demand for eyebrow correction at home. However, a significant drawback of using linings for modeling is the need to shave off the native eyebrows in order to eliminate problems during fixing the material to glue. In addition, as the growth of their hairs, the reliability of the fastening of the strip will decrease, which negatively affects the durability of the procedure.

Eyebrow modeling using extensions is recommended in the following cases:

• with uneven growth of hairs;
• with flaws in the appearance of the eyebrows that arose as a result of cosmetic procedures;
• in case of violation of the symmetry of arcs;
• with hair loss;
• in the presence of scars, as a result of which the hairs in this part do not grow.

Despite the fact that during the build-up, no injections of substances under the skin are performed and damage to the hair follicles does not occur, a number of contraindications to the correction of eyebrows with this method should be noted. Mostly they are associated with the adhesive, which is a chemical substance, or with the reaction of the epidermis to the synthetic material of the linings, since the hairs themselves are of natural origin. By the way, the latter are most often made of fur, although products from silk or kapron are found.

Contraindications to eyebrow extensions are the following situations:

• if the client is undergoing antibiotic treatment or chemotherapy;
• the presence of skin diseases in the area of ​​the eyebrows - eczema, ulcers, and so on;
• predisposition to allergic reactions;
• unhealed skin lesions;
• individual intolerance to any composition or material used.

The salon specialist is obliged to discuss such nuances with the client before the start of the procedure, as well as perform an initial examination of the epidermis in this area of ​​the face in order to eliminate the risk of adverse reactions. In general, all work is completed in 1.5-2 hours.

Most women who think about such a procedure have many questions and concerns, therefore, for an objective assessment of the effectiveness of building it is worth highlighting the positive and negative sides of the issue.

• safety procedures;

• The selection of material takes into account the color of the hairs. It is recommended to opt for a shade that will be darker than hair by a couple of tones. A similar nuance will add conciseness to the image.

• After choosing a shade, the master, together with the client, determines the shape of the eyebrows. For this, special stencils and rulers are used. With the help of a marker, the bending of arcs is outlined, and marks are placed at the places of fixation of artificial hairs.
• After this, preparatory procedures are carried out with skin and natural eyebrows - the hairs protruding beyond the contour are plucked out and the hairs cut too long. The skin is degreased.
• Eyebrows are increased by treating the hair with glue and sticking it to the skin. The material must be pressed and wait a few seconds. The work is carried out in the direction from the nose to the edges. For maximum resemblance to natural material, hairs of different lengths are used. If the extension is carried out by the patch method, the strips are fixed one by one on the skin.
• In conclusion, the specialist performs additional processing of the material with an adhesive composition.
