In fact, the majority of us are not! Eyebrows tend to be either thin or bushy, and there is always stray hair that just doesn<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">t seem to fit the desired shape. While plucking is a great way of getting rid of the occasional stray hair, both regular maintenance and resilient eyebrow hair may require other methods such as <\/span>eyebrow threading.<\/p>\n<h2><b>What Is Eyebrow Threading?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Eyebrow threading <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is an ancient hair removal method that first started in India. This technique uses thread to capture and remove unwanted eyebrow hairs in an easy and efficient manner.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Pros and Cons<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many pros and cons to <\/span>threaded eyebrows<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

At most salons, you should make sure to indicate your desired eyebrow shape if you have a preference.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b>It doesn<\/b><b>\u2019<\/b><b>t hurt that much: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Threading is a lot less painful than most people think! While you may still experience some mild pain and irritation, most people report that threading isn<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">t as painful as waxing or tweezing.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0<\/span><b>Funny side-effects: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your face is home to a lot of nerves, which may be irritated during the threading process.

This provides a cooling sensation and feels amazing, so unless you are allergic, you definitely want to say yes. You can also stock up on soothing aloe blend for other skincare needs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Check out other options: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some places offer additional options, including head massage, <a href=\"https:\/\/womensrealm.co\/best-diy-oatmeal-face-mask\/\">face masks<\/a> or eyebrow fill-in after threading. These are definitely worth exploring- especially the head massage.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Redness is normal: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the procedure is gentle, having cotton thread against your skin may cause redness for a short period of time.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Follow post-care directions: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good salon will give you tips about caring for your eyebrows after the threading. One common tip is no makeup, such as concealer or foundation, for several hours after the threading- this is an important one to follow because makeup can clog your pores, which are sensitive after threading.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Set your timeline: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After your first threading appointment, keep an eye on how quickly your hair tends to regrow. Once you start feeling the need to pluck your brows, it<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s time to set another appointment.
