Eyebrow threading is a very old and traditional technique that involves removing hair using a thread. It is unknown where this traditional technique originated as some say its origin is in India while some say Middle east.
However, this is a simple hair removal technique to remove hair from the upper lip, chin and other facial areas. The main advantage of this technique is that hair removal takes place with accuracy.

Steps how to thread eyebrows are –
- Get the necessary materials- In order to start threading, we need to get the materials to be used i.e. high cotton sewing thread. This thread needs to be measured and we need to make sure that this is as long as our forearm, plus three inches. It is recommended to use a 35 cm long thread. It is beneficial to use a high cotton sewing thread as it ensures that eyebrow hairs do not snap off between the thread.
- Draw an outline & prepare your eyebrows- With the help of a soft lead brow pencil, we need to outline the brows starting from inside, draw an outline in an outward sweeping motion. Now with the help of brush and scissors we need to prepare our brows. Using a brush, sweep hair upwards and then trim hair with scissors.
- Prepare and twist the thread- Tie the two ends of a piece of threading thread in order to form a loop. Use your thumb and forefinger to hold one side of the loop and place your other thumb and forefinger in between the thread on the other side. Twist the thread with one hand and about 4-5 times while keeping your other hand still.
- Positioning the thread and start threading- We should start with the twisted center of the thread in order for precision. Start positioning the thread over the eyebrow and start removing the hair. After this, we need to close the hand that is in control of the twisted center and gently open the other hand. Then in a firm motion, move smoothly across your skin. Your hair will be removed by the corners of the twist.
- Shaping brows and after care- After we are done, relocate the twist into the new section of hair we want to remove. This process needs to be continuously repeated until we have achieved our desired shape of eyebrows.
After threading, one will notice that the skin has turned red and sore. We then need to apply some aloe vera on the skin in order to avoid infection.
At Luxe Eyebrows & spa, this process of smooth threading is followed. One can easily find this salon just by searching Eyebrow threading near me and book an appointment with the therapist.
