Hi Helena! I am interested in booking threading, but do not have much control over how it works and what the difference in the result is compared to e.g. shaving or waxing. What do you look like right after, and the days after? Is there anything you need to think about? Hug!"<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

What fun that you want to book threading! Here is a post with lots of info that I hope answers all your questions and a little more :)<\/p>\n

What is threading?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

A hair removal method that removes the hair strands with the root and therefore gives a long-lasting result (unlike, for example, hair removal cream and shaving where the hair grows out after only a few days). You twist a thread and pull it in a special way over the skin so that all the straws follow, even small thin scabs. The method is several thousand years old and has been widely used in the Middle East and Asia.<\/p>\n

Why do you thread your face?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Some do it because they have coarser hair growth they want to get rid of, for example dark hair on the upper lip is extremely common even on women. But even people with lighter hair growth can have a lot of facial hair, which is often very long as well. Some people are bothered by the fact that it is visible, for example in sunlight, and some (including me) are bothered by the fact that the make-up does not apply as well in the areas where you have a lot of hair.<\/p>\n

I have gotten quite long straws under the cheekbones that bother me, have felt a bit like fur haha even though others probably have not seen it at all. In addition, I would like to remove the scalp around the mouth, partly because I often put on make-up (and am tattooed) outside my actual lip contour, which means that I have straws on my lips otherwise, but also because when I take close-ups of lip make-up, I think the hairs are highlighted so much that it disturbs the images.<\/p>\n

How much can you thread?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

You can either thread small areas such as the upper lip, lower lip and chin, but you can also thread the entire face, neck and neck. Threading eyebrows is also common!<\/p>\n

How does it happen?<\/strong><\/h4>\n
