Threading?

Paparika

Threading being an ancient art of hair removal from India.

Well my eyebrows need a tidy up, and a store has just opened up just by me, is it ok, does it work.

Any one had this done?

Hi Paparika,

I've been threading my eyebrows for about 5 years now and it's sooo much better than waxing/plucking etc as it gives a much better and neater line.
The only thing is, it's quite painful depending on who does it! But still worth it and it's quick.

Thanks Lisaf

I pluck em myself and now and then go and have them reshapped as i am rubbish at it.

Just noticed threading yesterday and wanted to know was it the latest fad to be avoided or was it any good.

£8.99 for eyebrows good/bad?

I also love threading, as Lisaf said you get a neater line than waxing or plucking. My local salon charges £5 which is the cheapest I've seen, and the most expensive is Benitos in Selfridges which is £10.

I have my eyebrows threaded & love the final effect - so smooth & clean, I then pluck the stray ones myself when they come through & the odd trim.

It makes your eyes water but not too bad. I only know 1 place near me that does it & they charge £10, but keeping up with the stray hairs makes it last longer & therefore reduces the cost
