All over the world, people associate hair removal with pain. While that can be hailed true for waxing, there's one method that is 100% pain-free. And that is eyebrow threading.
Eyebrow threading is cheap, highly effective, and a painless hair removal method. It helps you eliminate unwanted hair on your brows and get a polished shape in no time.
But how long does it last? Does it produce results that last longer than waxing?
In this blog, we answer that question and many more.
Eyebrow threading is a traditional hair removal technique that dates back to the era of ancient Egyptians. Prevalent in the Middle East and Asia, threading is considered the best alternative to waxing and shaving, also being suitable for people with sensitive skin.
Brow threading is a non-invasive method and doesn't involve the removal of the skin layer like waxing does. It includes plucking individual strands of hair from the brows for a well-defined and sharp look.
Eyebrow threading is a form of epilation. It requires a certain degree of skill, so getting it done at the salon is advisable. The technician at the salon will take a thin cotton thread and twist it into a double strand. This double strand is then swept across the brow in a rhythmic motion to pluck out unwanted hair directly from the follicles.
Threading is completely non-invasive, painless, and safe, and a hygienic form of hair removal. However, the accuracy and finesse required in threading necessitates the need for a skilled threading specialist.
Eyebrow threading is a versatile hair removal method suitable for all skin and hair types. That means everyone is qualified for eyebrow threading, regardless of your hair type, growth cycle, or skin sensitivity. Whether you reside in a temperate zone or a tropical part of the world, threading remains the most effective, painless, and non-invasive hair removal method.
Women of all age groups can opt for this procedure, especially those with sensitive skin. Eyebrow threading is recommended for people who don't want to feel the pain of waxing or skin irritation due to shaving.
For individuals with super sensitive skin, the threading technician applies ice cubes on the treated area to reduce redness with a soothing effect.
No pain or swelling, minimal downtime, highly effective and long-lasting results are just some of the many benefits of eyebrow threading. Let's take a closer look at them:
Anyone with a prior threading experience will tell you how they prefer it more than waxing. That has something to do with the various disadvantages associated with waxing, shaving, and tweezing.
Let's start with tweezing. Tweezing is inadvertently disqualified for brow shaping because it leaves gaping holes between hair, making it very difficult to attain the desired shape.
The second is waxing. The thing with waxing is that it's a painful method, with the potential to even peel off a layer of your skin in the treatment area. Aside from pain, waxing can also result in premature wrinkles on the skin. This results in aging signs appearing near your eye area faster than they should.
Lastly, shaving involves the use of razors, which isn't ideal for those with sensitive skin. It often results in skin irritation and redness. Moreover, shaving simply removes the surface hair, so hair regrowth is much faster than threading.
So, putting all these crude hair removal techniques together, threading emerges as the winner by far.
In a nutshell, with threading, you get:
As discussed earlier, eyebrow threading has longer-lasting results than waxing and shaving. Complete hair regrowth after threading can take up to 36 weeks, depending on your skin, hair type, and genetics. Moreover, as pressure is applied to the roots, your hair regrowth is sparse and finer after each threading session. You can opt for re-threading when you start seeing regrowth on the surface of your skin.
Thus, eyebrow threading remains one of the most effective hair removal methods and one that has prevailed for centuries.
Threading is a straightforward process without the need for any special preparations beforehand. However, it's best to take some precautions under certain conditions, which are as follows:
For the fast-paced and modern women who prefer a quick, effective, painless hair removal technique, eyebrow threading is a savior. It's also cheaper than waxing and suitable for everyone.
