Threading

Threading is a method of hair removal originating in India and Central Asia. The hair is removed from the root by a twisted thin cotton thread. It is rolled over the areas of unwanted hair, plucking at follicle level. Unlike tweezing where single hairs are pulled out one at a time, threading can remove short rows of hair at once.

The advantages of threading are that it provides more precise control in shaping eyebrows and is gentler on the skin. It can be uncomfortable as several hairs are removed at once, however this can be minimised when done properly.

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.

Threading can last between 2 and 6 weeks but does vary on each client depending on how fast the hair grows.
