I have recently discovered threading to remove facial hair, even though some women have been doing it for years! The person uses simple thread and weaves it over the skin so it tugs all the hair out. No, its not painless but I was amazed by how fuzz free I was - I did my brow and top lip! It was £7 for both and I would definately do it again although my skin went very red. Anyone else tried this before?
From Wikepedia:
Practitioners use a pure, thin, twisted cotton thread which is rolled over untidy hairlines, moustaches and so on, plucking the hair at the follicle level. Unlike tweezing where a single hair is pulled out each time, threading can remove an entire row of hair, resulting in a straighter line.
As the top layers of skin are not peeled or traumatized, threading is an alternative for those with sensitive skin or who use Retin-A, Accutane, and similar product.
