Eyebrow Threading

Eyebrow threading is a practice of shaping the eyebrows using a thread. It is commonly practised by women in India and the Middle East . They use a pure cotton thread. They generally twist the hair and threading pulls out a whole row of hair, as opposed to tweezing where only one single hair is pulled out. Threading is often preferred to tweezing because of the naturally straight lines of hair removed by the thread. It is pulled out from the follicle. Some women focus particularly on the joint between the eyebrow, thus interrupting so-called "unibrows" Threading is also used on the upper lip and face.
