Threading involves twisting thread in a loop like a lasso and pulling the 'knots' across your brows. These knots catch each brow hair and pull it out by the root. Threading is tricky so it’s best to leave it to professionals, but if you want to try it yourself here’s what to do. Before you begin threading, watch a lot of threading tutorials on YouTube to learn the technique involved. To thread your brows you’ll need threading thread which can be bought online, and a spoolie brush to shape the brows. You’ll also need ice to numb the area and tweezers for stray hairs or hard to reach spots. When getting your brows threaded professionally they will always ask you to stretch the skin around the brows. This prevents the thread from catching or tugging on your skin which can be painful. To thread your own brows you’ll also need someone to stretch the skin around your brows while your thread. Go very slowly, and start by threading the obvious stray hairs. Avoid threading underneath your brow as the skin here is very sensitive so this area should be left to professionals. To avoid ruining your brow shape draw an outline around them to act as a guide for when you’re threading.
