Waxing or Threading

threading!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been doing it for a few years now and i don't find it as painful as waxing was....the lip, that is a different story just because it is so sensitive....

I find that threading lasts longer and gives your eyebrows a much nicer shape than waxing. I got burned a few times waxing and was left with a little mark under my eyebrow from the burn - STINKS!!

I must really be out of the loop...can someone please explain what 'threading' is??

Eyebrow threading involves twisting a piece of thread, usually cotton, into a double strand. This double stranded thread is used to pick up a line of hair and then remove it, creating a very clean, precise hairline.

I copied this from a website because even though I get my eyebrows threaded all of the time I could not for the life of me figure out how to explain it.

I find its much better than waxing because its more precise and because I have had problems with the wax irritating my skin.

Thank you so much for explaining this! I guess I am lucky where I am not at the point of having to do my eyebrows yet - but good to know about this when the time DOES arise! Thanks again!
