What does ';thread your eyebrows 'mean? is that plucking them or waxing, or what? and where does that term come

Threading is an ancient method of hair removal which originated in parts of India, the Middle and Far East, and is now gaining popularity in Western countries. It is as popular with men in Arabic countries as it is with women, though they still shave the beard part of their face with a traditional safety or straight razor, doing their ears and eyebrows with thread.





Thin, twisted cotton threads are rolled over untidy hairlines, mustaches and so on, plucking the offending hair.





Practitioners use a pure cotton thread. They generally twist the hair and threading pulls out a whole row of hair, as opposed to tweezing where only one single hair is pulled out. Threading is often preferred to tweezing because of the naturally straight lines of hair removed by the thread. It is pulled out from the follicle. Some women focus particularly on the area between the eyebrows, thus interrupting so-called ';unibrows';.





Like other methods of hair removal such as plucking or waxing, threading can result in skin irritation and ingrown hairs, however, threading is more effective and less painful than tweezing; hair re-growth becomes finer and more sparse after regular treatments; and the top layers of skin are not peeled or traumatized in the process. For this reason, threading is highly recommended and an excellent option for those who use Retin-A, Accutane, and similar productsWhat does ';thread your eyebrows 'mean? is that plucking them or waxing, or what? and where does that term come
Its basically plucking them out, but they use this special string to pluck them out instead of tweezers or waxing. They say its more precise than other techniques, its very interesting to watch :D I think it originated in India.What does ';thread your eyebrows 'mean? is that plucking them or waxing, or what? and where does that term come
Yeah- using thread twisted in a special way- the result is a more precise eyebrow and it hurts about as much as waxing. Orginated in the middle east/India
