Threading 101

Q: What is threading and how does it compare to waxing?

A: Threading is an alternative to waxing or tweezing and is a form of facial hair removal. A Middle Eastern technique, hair is quickly pulled from the skin using thread, leaving a clean and smooth finish. One of the many benefits of threading is that it is anti-aging in that it does not pull and therefore age the fine skin on the face like waxing sometimes can.
