Winter is one of the most challenging seasons for brows and lashes — especially after professional treatments such as brow lamination, eyebrow tinting, and lash lift. Cold air, wind, indoor heating, and sudden temperature changes can weaken hair structure, reduce elasticity, and cause dryness much faster than in warmer months.
That’s why winter care for brows and lashes requires a more thoughtful approach. In this article, we explain how cold weather affects laminated brows and lifted lashes, what winter-specific mistakes to avoid, and how professional care products help preserve results, shine, and flexibility throughout the season.
How Winter Weather Affects Brows and Lashes
During winter, hairs are exposed to multiple stress factors at once:
-
cold outdoor air dehydrates the hair shaft
-
indoor heating dries both skin and hair
-
scarves, hats, and collars increase friction
-
lack of humidity reduces elasticity
For laminated brows and lifted lashes, this means:
-
faster loss of shape and curl
-
increased dryness and brittleness
-
dull appearance
-
uneven fading of tint
Winter care focuses on moisture retention, barrier protection, and elasticity support.
The First 24–48 Hours After Winter Treatments
If brow lamination or lash lift is done during the winter season, the stabilisation period becomes even more important.
During the first 24–48 hours, avoid:
-
snow, rain, steam, and water exposure
-
saunas and hot showers
-
rubbing brows or lashes with scarves or gloves
-
oil-based skincare near treated areas
-
sleeping face-down
This allows the hair structure to fully stabilise before facing harsh winter conditions.
Step 1: Protecting Brows and Lashes from Cold and Dry Air
Immediately after winter procedures, protection becomes the foundation of care. Laminated hairs need support to prevent moisture loss and environmental damage.
A lightweight protective cream helps shield both hairs and skin. SKIN PROTECTOR 2.0 with argan oil is often used during and after brow and lash procedures to help protect against dryness, support the skin barrier, and maintain a healthy, glossy appearance — especially important when skin is exposed to cold air and heating.
This step is essential during the first days after treatment and throughout winter.
Step 2: Winter Recovery and Deep Nourishment
Cold weather amplifies the effects of chemical treatments on hair structure. Recovery products help maintain flexibility and prevent breakage.
For brows, BTX-BROW MASK supports intensive recovery after lamination, tinting, or bleaching. It helps brows remain soft, smooth, and manageable during the cold season.
To preserve color depth and prevent premature fading in winter, Colour Fixing Fluid 2.0 with keratin and sunflower seed oil supports elasticity and helps maintain pigment stability when hairs are exposed to temperature changes.
For lashes, LashPLEX Professional Eyelash Concentrate 2.0 is ideal after lash lift procedures, especially in winter. It helps seal the cuticle, restore internal structure, prevent dryness, and improve lash resistance to environmental stress.
Step 3: Daily Winter Care for Brows and Lashes
Consistency is key during winter. Lightweight daily serums help prevent dehydration without overloading hairs.
GOGO BROWS eyebrow and eyelash care serum provides deep hydration and nourishment while supporting natural growth — especially useful for clients who regularly undergo lamination or tinting.
For daily grooming and gentle fixation, GLOW DAILY Brow & Lash-Fixing Care Serum helps keep hairs styled in the desired direction while maintaining softness and flexibility, even in dry indoor environments.
Step 4: Winter Styling Without Damage
In winter, fixation should never come at the cost of dryness. Styling products must combine hold with care.
Depending on your needs:
-
BROW LOCK offers strong fixation for unruly brows under hats and scarves
-
FIX ELIXIR provides medium hold with moisturising support
-
BROW TOP Eyebrow Styling Wax creates natural definition with an ultra-light feel
These products help preserve shape without making hairs stiff or brittle.
Makeup in Winter: Soft Definition for Laminated Brows
Winter makeup should enhance, not overload. A gentle product like Powder Eyebrow Pencil Brow Liner Pro allows subtle definition and filling without disturbing the lamination effect or drying out hairs.
Advanced Winter Care for Long-Term Results
For added elasticity and protection during colder months, BROW ELIXIR 2.0 supports manageability and helps maintain brow shape while protecting the skin around the brows from dryness.
For lashes needing extra support between lift procedures, LashBOOST Peptide Lash Care Serum nourishes lashes with peptides, amino acids, and proteins, helping them stay strong and flexible throughout winter.
Common Winter Care Mistakes
Winter results often fade faster due to simple mistakes:
-
skipping daily hydration
-
overusing strong cleansers
-
excessive friction from scarves and hats
-
relying only on styling without repair
Professional winter care prevents these issues before they appear.
Winter doesn’t have to compromise your brow and lash results. With the right approach, laminated brows and lifted lashes can remain smooth, glossy, and well-defined even in the coldest months.
When winter care includes:
-
protection from environmental stress
-
deep nourishment and recovery
-
consistent daily hydration
-
gentle fixation without dryness
your brows and lashes stay healthy, flexible, and beautifully styled — regardless of the season.
