The best brow lamination kits are my secret to bold, lifted brows—no salon appointment required. Every time someone says, “You’ve got beautiful brows,” I give myself a silent pat on the back. In reality—my natural brows grow straight down—thick, stubborn, and fondly nicknamed my little mustaches. I’ve worked hard to recover from spot alopecia (thank you, brow serums), but no amount of brushing with a spoolie keeps them up for long. What I really needed was a lash lift, but for eyebrows instead—but lets circle back for a moment on what laminated brows even are—and no, it’s not your in-office supplies laminator for plastic coated pages.
Brow lamination is a process of restructuring the brow hairs to keep them in a desired shape (and appear slightly fuller),” Natalie Piper, international trainer at the Eyelash Design Company, previously told Vogue, of the brow lifting treatment. “It’s the perfect treatment for anyone whose eyebrow hairs are irregular in direction, who has any gaps in between said hairs, or who wants that groomed, brushed-up look.” The result? Feathered, Cara Delevigne-ish brows.

As someone who’s shelled out $150+ for salon laminations more times than I care to admit, I adore the results of “I woke up like this” combed up brows—but my wallet and calendar are considerably less enthusiastic. Enter the at-home solution: brow lamination kits that lift, fluff, and shape with nearly salon-level results, all from the comfort of your couch.
While there aren’t one-size-fits-all directions for brow lamination kits, per se, generally the steps tend to be pretty similar across products—cleanse the brows, apply the treatment, wait, wipe off, repeat. The key is in paying attention to each product’s recommended processing time to keep your hairs lifted sans over-processed crunch. Think of it as “similar to a keratin treatment for your brows,” esthetician Liz McKay, previously told Vogue.
As with other semi-permanent hair treatments, experts generally recommend getting them done by a professional, however, if you have a penchant for DIY (and the common sense to follow an instructional manual while playing with chemicals), then look no further that our top five favorite eyebrow lamination kits. In an effort to make your “add to cart” experience easier, we scrolled through countless options to round up the top rated picks.

Everything You Need to Know
Is it safe to use at-home brow lamination kits?
While at-home brow lamination kits aren’t inherently bad, celebrity brow artist René de la Garza, advises proceeding with caution and following the product directions closely. Why? If you leave a brow lamination treatment on for too long, you risk overprocessing your hair—it’s the same concept as over bleaching your hair, for example.
Meanwhile, leaving the treatment on for too short of a time, can result in a “well, that didn’t do anything” experience. The pros also advise doing a patch test before applying any brow lamination products—especially if you have sensitive skin. If you have no itchy irritation post-patch test, carry on!
How to Use At-Home Brow Lamination Kits
At-home brow lamination products generally follow a similar process (even when the beauty professionals are applying them): cleanse, apply, wait, wipe off, repeat. For general, apply the solution, set the hairs in the position you want them, and then fix them in place–always referencing the step-by-step instructions of your specific throughout. Its especially important to be mindful of recommended processing times. “Results typically last from four to six weeks when brows are processed at the correct time for your hair texture,” says De la Garza.
How Long Do Brow Lamination Results Last
It’s important to never over-do it with brow lamination—the experts recommend waiting at least six weeks before repeating treatments. Much like overly bleached hair, anything sooner can risk causing breakage or brittle texture. “Brow lamination lasts longest when incorporating proper after-care. A nightly castor-oil routine to hydrate and moisturize the brow hair,” says De La Garza adds.
