Eyebrow threading has become a popular beauty trend. Many women prefer to thread their eyebrows, despite all the concerns about eyebrow threading. It is less painful and gentler on your skin, removes finer hairs faster, and it's quicker. It is also less expensive or even free if done by yourself. You can also hire beauticians for salon services at home for ease. This step-by-step guide will teach you how to thread your eyebrows.
Preparing Your Face
First, eyebrow threading at home can be painful and uncomfortable. To ease the pain, there are three things that you can do. Before you can do that, clean your face the same way you would for your beauty routine.
Prepare The Threads
Cut the thread by measuring it to approximately 15 to 20 inches. To make a loop, tie the ends of the thread together. To strengthen the knot and to make a loop, do this at least three more times. For a clean loop, you can trim any extra thread that isn't tied to the knot.
Test The Loop Thread
To check the strength of the thread, hold it in your hands. You can pull on either side by holding each end of the loop with both your fingers. To learn how to pull the thread, you can also run it through your fingers.
Shape A X
Turn the thread with one hand to create an X at the center. Twist the thread again once you have made the X. How do you choose which hand to turn? This is the hand that will perform the threading, which is typically your dominant hand.
Practice manipulating the thread against your skin before you start. You can practice by holding the loop in one hand and opening the other. This will allow the twist at its center to move. This is where you will remove the hair strands.
Prepare Eyebrows
Keep in mind that eyebrows can take up to 2 to 3 weeks to grow back so be cautious. You will need to prepare your eyebrows in order to remove them flawlessly. An eyebrow pencil can be used to mark the shape of your eyebrows. Begin by drawing outwards from the inner part of your eyebrows. Be sure to outline both your eyebrows evenly.
Start Threading
Once you feel confident and have completed your practice, you can begin threading your eyebrows. The twisted portion of the loop should be placed over the area you want to thread. Find the hair that you wish to remove, and place the twist of your loop against it. To prevent ingrown hairs, you will need to turn the hair against the direction it is growing.
Close your hands and slide the twisted thread along the hair strands that you wish to remove. Pulling at the thread and running your fingers against the hair strands will cause the thread to pick up the hair strands. To avoid irritation, glide gently across your skin.
Clean And Spply Astringent
After you have finished threading your eyebrows, use an astringent to clean up the area. Aloe Vera gel can be used to soothe the area. To ease the pain, you can also apply ice packs and baby oral gel. Although it may sound unlikely, eyebrow-tweeting enthusiasts swear by baby oral gel.
