Hey there,
So recently I done a threading course in Portabello Institute in Dublin. It was a one day course and in it I learned both the mouth technique and the hands technique. I completely fell in love with threading from that day onwards. It’s so easy and leaves the area perfect!!
You can even use any kind of string you have lying around the house, although my advice would be to use the professional string used for threading which would be ‘Vanity threading thread’. You can buy this from your local Sally’s for as cheap as £2.69. Can you imagine what an amazing benefit this price would be to you in comparison to the price of wax, wax strips and spatulas? It literally doesn’t even compare.
The technique is so-so. It’s all about the practice. I mean I felt confident enough to take the scruff of someone’s eyebrows after the course but I wasn’t ready for a re-shape there and then. Like everything it takes lots and lots of practice.I did however take a whirl at doing my own eyebrows and they turned out pretty good.
I’ll also attach a photo of my arm which was practised on for most of the day. There’s a noticeable difference let me just say that haha.
Look at how different the amount of hair on my arm is . It’s crazy. And yes it is somewhat embarrassing to have an arm half bald and the other gorilla like – I’ve waxed them since. My favourite technique to use was the mouth technique, I just prefer it as I’m one of those people who can’t move both hands at the same time haha. So overall I’m extremely happy with threading. It’s definitely a skill worth looking into if your in the beauty world already and extremely beneficial!!
