Question 1

How is threading different from other hair removal methods?

Accepted Answer

Unlike other hair removal methods, threading uses a single twisted strand of cotton to remove unwanted hair. Both threading and tweezing are chemical-free and work by targeting single hairs, but waxing and epilating can remove multiple hairs in one go. Threading, waxing, tweezing, and epilating all remove hair from the root, but it will regrow in 2-4 weeks. Laser hair removal is the only permanent hair removal method.

Question 2

Is threading painful?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It’s fast and, unlike waxing, it doesn’t tug on your skin; however threading does pluck hair out from the root, so it will hurt. Rest assured, though: the pain is quick and bearable.

Question 3

Are there any risks associated with threading?

Accepted Answer

Side effects are rare, but may include redness, infection, hyper-pigmentation, and ingrown hair. To minimise the risk of side effects, always book in with an experienced professional.

Question 4

What is threading and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Threading is a hair removal technique that’s mostly used to remove unwanted eyebrow hair. It is chemical free and sees your therapist use twisted strands of thread to pluck single hairs from the root.

Question 5

How often should I get threading done?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your hair’s regrowth rate: most people get their legs done every 4 weeks, and their eyebrows done every 2-4 weeks.

Question 6

How long does threading last?

Accepted Answer

Between 2 to 4 weeks, depending on your natural hair growth rate.
