Threading

Threading is an ancient hair removal process that been used in India and the Middle East for thousands of years. Lately, threading has started to gain popularity in Western culture, mainly in the US. The practice has provided many people with a sustained alternative to waxing and plucking. However, there are still lots of people that do not know about threading and how it can improve their beauty routine.

What is so great about threading?

Chemicals Free
Dissimilar to other hair removal procedures, threading not including any chemicals. Only one thing that is used is a soft cotton thread. Nothing else is touching the skin and can irritate it. Someone with a sensitive skin that is prone to redness or itchiness would benefit significantly from an all-natural technique like threading.

Accuracy
Perhaps the most significant advantage that threading has over other techniques is the ability to form an eyebrow with spectacular precision. Separable hairs can be targeted, but multiple hairs can still be removed together. It is like having the tweezing accuracy combining it with waxing’s ability to remove an abundance of hairs instantaneously. Threading can remove one clean line of the hair simultaneously, allowing the threading artist to shape the eyebrows perfectly.

Less Pain
It is generally agreed threading is not as painful as other hair removal procedures. This may be because the thread is not touching the skin during the process. The skin under and around the eyebrow is thin and sensitive, which is why techniques that pull directly on this skin typically cause the pain.

Save Time
Tweezing your eyebrow hair one by one can take forever. Fortunately, the threading solves this problem by removing multiple hairs at once. The threading artist weaves the thread through all of the hairs that need to be removed then tugs at the thread. This fast process can be repeated until the desired eyebrow shape is achieved.

Long-Lasting
For most people, the results last anywhere between 2-5 weeks. Another thing to take into consideration that threading weakening the hair follicles, causing growth to be less dense over time. So the more you thread your eyebrows, the finer the hair will grow in and the less often you will have to thread.

Affordability
Since threading uses no chemicals and is a quick procedure to perform, it is incredibly affordable.
