Have U Ever?

Though eyebrow threading has been popular in India and the Middle East for thousands of years, it has only been commonplace stateside for the past few years. Have you ever had your eyebrows threaded? I wonder if it is as painful as waxing? Eyebrow threading is distinct from plucking or waxing because it removes one clean line of hair all at once, making it much quicker and easier to shape the brows. The procedure involves little more than a piece of 100% cotton string. The thread is held between the teeth or is anchored around the neck of the beautician, while the other end is held firmly with the left (or non-dominant) hand. The index and middle fingers of the right (or dominant) hand then form a loop in the center of the string, and the thread is rolled over the surface of the skin, collecting the hairs as it moves. (For a video, the Eyebrow Threading NBC 10 Special (courtesy YouTube) is excellent.)

I think Skylar and I are going to have our eyebrows threaded this next week sometime. If you have had yours done please leave me a comment and let me know what you think about threading thanks so much.
