    no-one in the town where I live now does threading that I've been able to find. I think i"ll practice with my upper lip first. once I get the technique down on my lips, I may try just overall shaping of my brows. I've waxed my brows and lips for a while but not entirely thrilled with my results every time. Thank you for sharing this.

  • @Schoolgirl325
    @Schoolgirl325 3 года назад +1

    I’m 25 going on 26. I’ve spent more time waxing, but I recently switched to threading, and I actually like it more, even if it’s a bit of an adjustment. This is a nice tutorial, but I can’t use my right hand well due to a disability, so I just went to my local salon to get my brows, chin, and upper lip threaded. There’s no such thing as painless threading. You get used to it a bit more, but it still hurts because they’re pulling hair from the root. My eyes started watering when the esthetician at the salon threaded my upper lip because the skin is sensitive there. I haven’t noticed any bleeding or bumps from it, so I think they did a good job. It is a really good result, though, and it’s less red afterwards.
    BTW, you’re skin looks amazing for 38!

      There is an easy threading tool you can find it in webshops if you search by threading tool.
      However I tried it and it worked pretty well very easy but..the tool works by two nylon threads rolling against eachother so your skin being squeezed and I think I got bumps on my skin, my forehead so I won't use it again I don't want to create loose skin or wrinkles there. I guess I will have to go to the hairdresser again to let them do it perfectly.

  • @stellabright6325
    @stellabright6325 Год назад +1

    The pulling is the same regardless of how you rip the hair from the follicle. It's the pulling the skin taught that does it, not the actual removal. For instance, the facial movements you made were stretching the skin......hence the tightening. Skin care, genetics, health, hydration, and technique play a role too. I'd be more worried about scar tissue and infection if you're cutting yourself than I would be about waxing wrinkles. I have no doubt an esthetician told you otherwise but that wasn't a comment based on science. I liked the video overall, it just seems like you'd want to provide accurate information. Otherwise I would have remained silent.
