I was introduced to waxing by my college roommate. She was from Philadelphia and took me to her parents for a weekend visit. As a guest, her mother included me in the traditional beauty regimens which included waxing and eyebrow threading. My first experience was a little rocky, but one look in the mirror at the finished product and I have never looked back. Waxing was history my friend.
If you are one of those people who endlessly dotes over the smallest of details and cannot handle anything less than perfect, grooming and shaping your eyebrows must be an ordeal. The simple solution is always going for eyebrow threading because that's the closest thing to perfection. Although waxing may be able to give fancy shapes but the shapes are available as stencils. The stencils are uniform and standard and the same for everyone. In a word: one size and shape has to fit all and in a land where individuality rules, who would settle for that limitation? So there's limited choice with waxing. What your face and eyebrows need may be quite unique owing to your different taste or unique face shape etc. So whether you want the foxy thin lined eyebrows or the natural yet clean ones you can get them with eye brow threading. Eyebrow has the potential to frame your face. If the eyes are the window to the soul, why not put your best face forward?
Eyebrow threading originates from India and is probably the only way that eyebrows are shaped there. It involves the beautician or whoever is performing the threading to make a loop with a thread and twirl it a couple of times. The loop with the twirls at the center and the sides held by the beautician when applied with light pressure on the area of unwanted hair growth removes hair efficiently. The best thing about threading is that hair can be removed from the exact spot where unwanted and any possible desired shape can be achieved.
At Shanti Medspa in Philadelphia, eyebrow threading begins with the removal of unwanted hair in the middle of two eyebrows and then go on to remove extra growth from the top and bottom. Any desired shape, length and thickness could be given. If the eyebrow arch is very high fill the lower area with eyebrow pencil strokes and remove a few hair from the upper section of the brow. When the eyebrow arch is low, hair should be removed from under the eyebrows and the upper area should be outlined with the eyebrow pencil. Those who are proficient in the process only should perform threading. If you are a self-learner a lot of practice is required before you can start performing it on yourself. Threading gives best results when performed by a beautician you trust and knows exactly how you want them. Eyebrows threading is done in usually every 2-3 weeks.
The only minor drawback could be the discomfort. Which is by most accounts, less than that with tweezing or waxing. Few quick and small home remedies to alleviate the pain are to rub ice on the spot to numb it. Application of astringent or toner is important after the process because open pores are present after the procedure. Post application a moisturizer works as well to soothe the area. With all this information in hand eyebrow threading could be a reason for double celebration; one because of the perfect shape and two because of the little pain caused.
