Threading is a form of hair removal practiced with a simple piece of twisted thread, which moves against the unwanted hair, pulling each hair out by the root. Threading is a hair removal method practiced on the face in place of waxing, as it has been proven that waxing can be harmful to the face.

The skin on the face is very delicate and different from other parts of the body. In addition, as you remove wax off the face, the muscles are being pulled which may result in premature wrinkling and may cause the skin to peel.

Even though threading takes a little extra time, there are many advantages to it. Threading causes only a little redness, as it grabs the shortest hair along with any peach fuzz making the threaded area very clean. Threading also prevents broken capillaries and other types of blemishing.
