Eyebrow threading is a depilation
technique which originated in India, although it is widely practiced
in the Middle East. Salons in Western nations offered the
service to Middle Eastern clients for decades before European and
American women became interested and the popularity of eyebrow
threading skyrocketed. The hair removal technique is not just
for the eyebrows: threading can be used to remove other facial hair.
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.
Eyebrow threading is the technique preferred by Indian movie stars,
who are often distinguished by their crisp brow lines.
Eyebrow threading
can be used to eliminate a unibrow, raise the arch of the eyebrow,
or add shape and definition to the brow. Because it removes
hair by the follicle, it is a
reasonably long lasting hair removal technique as well.
Repeat visits after three to four weeks are standard. The technique
is also not terribly expensive, because it is easy to do quickly and
does not require costly chemical ingredients. For women who would
like to pursue a more natural beauty regimen, eyebrow threading is a
good choice, since it does not use harmful products.
Eyebrow threading
is a preferred hair removal technique for a number of reasons.
Unlike tweezing or plucking, eyebrow threading removes one clean
line of hair all at once, making it much quicker and easier to shape
the brows. If done correctly, the skin should not be red or
irritated for more than a few minutes after the eyebrow threading
session. Some aestheticians also find it easier to shape eyebrows
using this technique than other methods available.
Pricing for threading is the same for
other depilation services.
