Threading
Eyebrow threading is a method of hair removal that originated in Asia and the Middle East. It involves using a thin, twisted cotton or polyester thread to pluck out unwanted hairs. The thread is doubled and then twisted, allowing it to catch and pull out hairs in a straight line. This technique provides precise control, making it ideal for shaping eyebrows.
