Threading your eyebrows at home can be tricky, but here's a guide based on the provided instructions to help you:
Preparing for Threading
Before you begin, make sure you have:
- A length of cotton thread (about 18-24 inches long).
- Clean hands.
- A mirror.
Step-by-Step Threading Guide
Here's how to use the thread:
- Hold the Thread: Tie the ends of the thread together to form a loop.
- Twist the Thread: Twist the loop several times in the middle to create a twisted section. This is the section you will be using to pluck hairs.
- Position your Hands:
- Place one hand above your brow and the other below.
- The hand below the brow will be used to move the twisted part of the thread.
- Isolate the Hair:
- Position the hair you want to remove within the 'V' created by the twisted thread.
- Pluck the Hair:
- Open the fingers on the hand below your brow. This action will move the twisted section over the hair.
- As the twist moves across the hair, it will pull the hair out.
- Repeat: Repeat the process until you have achieved the desired eyebrow shape.
Tips for Success
- Practice on an area like your arm first to get a feel for the technique.
- Work slowly and methodically.
- Be careful not to pull the thread too hard, as this can break the hair or cause skin irritation.
- Use an antiseptic after threading.
