The beauty industry has the opportunity to create a supportive community where everyone can uplift and learn from each other. There is a need for more education and events specifically focused on brows in the US. The new formulation of the Bronson tint has received mixed reviews, and some artists miss the previous formula and its unique color options. Color matching in brow tinting is an art that can be enhanced through color theory education. Eyebrow tinting offers flexibility and artistry in creating different looks. Color theory and color correcting are important aspects of eyebrow tinting. Different tinting brands have different benefits and features. Hydration and aftercare are crucial for maintaining the results of eyebrow tinting. Being an educator requires finding a balance between teaching techniques and allowing students to develop their own style. The popularity of hybrid and skin stain techniques is growing in the industry. Different percentages of oxidants in brow tinting provide flexibility and diversity in results. Interchanging oxidants within brands may have unknown effects on the effectiveness and compatibility of the products. Brow mapping using mapping products, such as concealer, helps create a visual outline for shaping brows. Pigmented solutions can have a halo effect and may stain the skin.

16: You're NOT an Imposter. You're Awesome, Mean it.
In this solo episode, Megs, the host of Browducation, discusses imposter syndrome and how it affects her as a brow artist and educator. She shares her accomplishments and success in the industry, but also reveals that she still experiences imposter syndrome regularly. Megs provides insights into the thoughts and feelings associated with imposter syndrome and offers strategies to cope with it, such as using an app to limit social media usage, creating a folder of positive feedback and favorite work, and focusing on personal growth rather than comparing oneself to others. Takeaways: Imposter syndrome can affect even successful individuals in their respective fields. Accomplishments and external validation do not necessarily eliminate imposter syndrome. Thoughts associated with imposter syndrome are not always true or reflective of reality. Using an app to limit social media usage can help reduce comparison and negative self-perception. Creating a folder of positive feedback and favorite work can serve as a reminder of one's skills and achievements. Focusing on personal growth and comparing oneself to past achievements is more productive than comparing to others.

BONUS: Cysteamine HCL & Ammonia Thioglycolate Walk Into a Bar…
In this bonus episode of Brow Education, Megs discusses the chemicals used in brow lamination and their effects on the hair. She explains the different types of chemicals, their active ingredients, and how they work to soften and open the cuticle of the hair shaft. Megs also talks about delivery systems, irritants, and the importance of choosing the right solution based on the client's hair type and skin sensitivity. She then goes into detail about the pH level adjustment in step two and the nourishing effects of step three. Finally, Megs addresses the issue of hair lightening during lamination and offers tips for fixing any unwanted color changes. Takeaways: There are different types of chemicals used in brow lamination, including Cysteamine HCL (hydrochloride) and ATG (ammonium thioglycolate). The choice of solution depends on the client's hair type and skin sensitivity, with ATG being more suitable for coarse or thick hair and cysteamine HCL being gentler and better for thinner hair types. Delivery systems, such as Aloe Vera, can be used to provide hydration and minimize the drying effects of the chemicals. Step two of the lamination process involves adjusting the pH level of the hair to bring it back to the acidic side, which is healthier for the hair and skin. After the lamination process, it is important to nourish the hair with keratin treatments or vitamin treatments to restore moisture and strengthen the hair. Hair lightening can occur during the lamination process due to the alkaline nature of the chemicals used. This can be fixed by applying tint or using caution when tinting the hair. Overall, brow lamination is a versatile treatment that can be customized based on the client's needs and desired results.
