Threading
 

Threading hair is an ancient method commonly practiced in Eastern countries, like Egypt and India, but is becoming very popular in the West. Threading removes the entire hair follicle, lasting up to 6 weeks.

How Does it Work?
A cotton thread is pulled along unwanted hair in a twisting motion, to trap and lift the hair right out of the follicle.

It is difficult to find an experienced technician and isn’t something you can easily learn in a couple classes- especially to do brow shaping. Here at Jeunesse Manjit has had over 20 years experience.

The Pros

  •   1)It’s very fast and can take between 2-5 minutes to have your eyebrows shaped.

  •   2)It’s hygienic. Nothing but the thread touches the skin, and it’s thrown away after use.

  •   3)Threading has this amazing ability to be so concise in the hair that it removes. And can be used even by people who say they can never get their eyebrows even, despite tweezing, waxing or sugaring.

  •   4)Frequent threading can cause the hair follicle to become damaged, and stop growing hair.

The Cons

  •   •  If done incorrectly, the hairs can break. If hair is broken from an inexperienced threading professional, hair re-growth will show up much quicker.

  •   •  Some hair regrowth is necessary. 2mm of hair is needed for thread to wrap around.

  •   •  It is generally performed on smaller areas eg the face and not the body.

  •   •  Pain - The discomfort is similar to tweezing, but the process is much, much quicker. Some people say they have very little pain from threading. .
