What is Threading?
In threading, a thin cotton or thread is doubled, then twisted. It is then rolled over areas of unwanted hair, plucking the hair at the follicle level. Unlike tweezing, where single hairs are pulled out one at a time, threading can remove short rows of hair.
Threading allows for a more defined and precise shape and can create better definition for eyebrows. It is also used as a method of removing unwanted hair on the entire face and upper lip area.
Eyebrow Threading
Brow Threading was built on the idea that a beauty routine should be simple and inexpensive while producing gorgeous, quality results. Threading is the perfect temporary solution for hair removal of any facial hair, like your brows.
Lip Threading
Lip threading allows for a more painless, precise, less irritating, and chemical free, and lasting, hair removal experience compared with other hair removal techniques.
Chin Threading
There’s not much you can do to stop chin hairs from growing — they’re just a part of being human. You do, however, have many options for removing random chin hairs if they bother you and threading is the cheapest safest way to do that.
Side of Face Thread
Although people normally get their eyebrows threaded, it’s also a great solution for removing sideburns or other unwanted facial hair. This process uses a thin strand of cotton thread to pull hair and is a great alternative if your face is too sensitive for waxing. Over time, your hair may grow back finer and less noticeable. Plus, it lasts anywhere from two to six weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
By knotting the thread and creating a trap, hairs are caught and forced out by the root. The rapid back and forth movements remove the hair quite efficiently. It takes only minutes to have clean and hair free skin.
You may feel a pinching or light scraping sensation. Most customers agree that it’s no more uncomfortable than tweezing or waxing.
Although hair can be threaded as soon as it grows just above the surface of the skin, we recommend waiting for about two weeks if you want a new or different shape to your brows. In the meantime, don’t tweeze your brows, even for a touch up.
