The threading of eyebrows aswell as other facial hair is an ancient technique that began in Eastern culture and has only recently began to get popular in western society. The actual practice of threading is quite artistic in its action, where the practitioner uses cotton thread to
remove hair at the follicle level in one fluid motion.
To remove your unwanted facial hair in the past, you may have tried waxing. However, what you may not realise is that waxing can be very harsh, especially on sensitive skin. The chemicals found in most waxing could cause chemical burns, some skin damage and is potentially dangerous to your health. When removing facial hair using threading there are no chemicals involved and only cotton thread comes into contact with the skin.
When you have sensitive skin, it is sometimes a problem when it comes to hair removal because of the reactions to chemicals. Even using hair removal creams and tweezers can leave the skin inflamed. As threading involves only a small amount of contact with the skin, it means there is not much skin damage. It is especially useful if you are prone to acne or on any type of medication for it.
If you have tried plucking your eyebrows then you know how long it can take to do and do correctly. Rather than plucking every single hair, threading will take a line of hair all at once. As a line is removed
in one go, it is faster than plucking and faster than waxing as there is no time required to prepare any wax.
The other great advantage of threading versus waxing is that it lasts much longer. When you have your eyebrows threaded the hair will be gone for around 3 – 4 weeks and sometimes longer.
When you choose threading, you are choosing a process that is quicker, less painful than waxing and better for your skin. If you are having your eyebrows threaded, you will also see the shape and arch is better.
One final question that people often ask is does threading hurt? The answer would be, about as much as plucking but it is quicker so you spend less time feeling it. It will usually take only 1 or 2 sessions
before you are used to threading and over time as the hairs get finer any pain is even further lessened.
