Here's how it works. A strand of pure cotton thread is doubled over, looped, and twisted by the eyebrow artist. Then, with quick flicks of the fingers, the esthetician rolls the thread over the surface of the skin. This scissoring motion snares unwanted hair, removing them in a controlled and exacting way.
Shaggy eyebrows become refined, turning them into shapely, eye-enhancing features. The stragglers are gone. No more unibrow. No more tadpole look. Instead you get gracefully arched brows that have well-defined lines, which refresh the face’s appearance. These sculpted eyebrows give expression to the face and a well-polished look that is admired in today’s fashion-conscious age.
Women are packing away their tweezers and giving the cold shoulder to waxing too, now that there is a viable alternative. While some might choose laser treatment, its cost can be an obstacle. Eyebrow threading offers many benefits over these conventional methods, including the affordable price and minimal pinkness around the brow following the procedure. In threading, a row of hairs is removed, giving a cleaner line than tweezing can. The precision allows you to avoid those occasional bare spots that occur after a lapse in attention or an overly aggressive plucking session.
From your skin’s vantage point, threading is superior to waxing, too. Cosmetic wax clings not only to eyebrow hairs, but also to the skin underneath. With the jarring “r-r-r-i-p” of the waxing fabric, underlying skin can be left red and irritated. Some waxes contain chemicals, an irritant to those with acne or sensitive skin. The last thing you want is to have someone look at your face knowingly, aware of where you had spent your hour lunch break! Hot wax isn’t always the best secret-keeper.
Threading is not just for brows either. If you have an uneven hairline or have a few unwanted guests on your chin or upper lip, this technique quickly takes care of the problem. Threading can be applied to other untidy body hair as well. Just ask a well-groomed man in India. He would not blink an eye at managing pesky ear hair with this same effective method!
