Coloring, toning, highlighting eyebrows and eyelashes is one of the most obvious beauty trends not only in America, but also among girls around the world. It turns out that in many US states this procedure is prohibited because it can cause serious harm to health.
The procedure involves applying a coloring pigment directly on the hairs around the eye area, which will make the eyelashes or eyebrows darker for up to six months, tells The Daily Mail. But the US Food and Drug Administration did not approve of this procedure due to the risks.
The FDA website states that permanent staining of eyebrows and eyelashes is associated with the development of serious eye damage. Sabah Feroz, eyebrow expert at Blink Brow Bar London, explains why the procedure can actually be controversial in terms of health. But also notes that if a specialist you trust, is careful, the staining should be safe.
“The procedure involves chemicals that can come in contact with the skin in the same way as using hair dyes. Coloring products for this area are much more gentle than hair dye, they are specially designed for eyebrows and eyelashes, but care is still required. If there are any signs of an allergic reaction, the procedure should not be carried out. ”
Sahab recommends that potential customers first examine information about the salon, where they want to undergo staining, and only then sign up to the master. A reputable salon is obliged not only to inform the client about the ingredients in the dye, but also to make a test test to make sure that an allergic reaction does not occur.
Currently, showrooms in California are not eligible to perform this procedure due to a law that prohibits the use of products not approved by the FDA. But staining is permitted in New York: here the masters use non-permanent dyes on a plant or food basis, as well as coal tar.
Although herbal dyes are the most natural, they are still not FDA approved for toning eyebrows and eyelashes.
The procedure has become popular, despite the warnings of experts, as wide and bright eyebrows are a trend in the beauty community. Some famous models - for example, Cara Delevingne and Lily Collins - contributed to the spread of this trend, showing just such eyebrows, in contrast to the previously fashionable "strings". Since then, many women of fashion have actively used pencils, brushes and special eyebrow lipsticks to add richness.
Sabah says that the shade of eyebrows and eyelashes creates the kind that customers want, without using daily makeup.
“If you have blond hair, the desired shade will instantly create the illusion of thicker eyebrows. It is also a great time saver for those who color their eyebrows and use mascara every day, giving the eyes depth. ”
For those who do not want to paint eyebrows in the salon, the expert recommends investing money in a good make-up for every day.
“Brows not only shape your face, but also complement the entire look. Eyebrow grooming doesn't have to be difficult, ”says the expert.
