How does threading work?
Threading is an ancient hair removal technique that uses a fine cotton thread to remove unwanted facial hair directly from the root, making it especially effective for shaping eyebrows and achieving clean, defined results.
During the treatment, the skin is first cleansed to remove makeup and oils so the thread can grip the hair properly. A loop of 100% cotton thread is then twisted to create a controlled lasso, which your therapist moves across the skin in a precise, scissor-like motion. As the twisted thread rolls over the surface, it captures and lifts rows of hair from the follicle in one smooth action.
After the treatment is finished we will add some soothing gel to calm the skin and reduce any temporary redness.

Threading FAQs
Is threading better than waxing
«This depends on the body area. Threading can only really be used on the face, so other methods are more suited to e.g. underarms or the bikini line.
When it comes to facial hair, threading is often considered gentler than waxing because it does not involve chemicals or heat. It is ideal for sensitive skin and provides more precise results, especially for shaping eyebrows.
How long do threading results last?
«Results typically last up to 3–4 weeks, depending on your individual hair growth cycle.
Does threading hurt?
«Pain levels vary from person to person, but most clients find threading very tolerable. Any discomfort is brief and usually less intense than waxing. You may experience some redness after your treatment but this will subside quickly.
What areas of the face can be threaded?
«Threading can be performed on eyebrows, upper lip, chin, jawline, neck, sides of the face and forehead.
Is threading safe for acne-prone skin?
«Yes, threading is generally safe for acne-prone and sensitive skin and is often preferred over waxing because it does not use chemicals, heat or adhesive, which helps reduce irritation.
While threading is a gentler hair removal option, it may still carry a small risk of minor irritation, such as temporary redness or tiny bumps (folliculitis). To protect your skin, threading should be avoided directly over active, inflamed, or pustular acne, as this can spread bacteria or worsen the breakout.
To minimise post-treatment breakouts, keep the area clean, avoid applying makeup for 24 hours, and use a gentle cleanser.
Will threading cause redness?
«Some mild redness may occur immediately after treatment, but it usually subsides quickly, often within an hour.
