Alternatives To Waxing: Thread Away Your Facial Hair

If you lived in cities in Asia, you'll probably be aware of these strategies. Instead of buying expensive products like the Epicare bar which removes facial hair, it is also possible to thread at home without needing any professional help. Threading is a wonderful process of removing even the finest hair strands along with the root away from the face. Although I would recommend either purchasing one of the products like Epicare or getting it professionally done, you can also consider threading at home using the simplest technique.

First off, take a strand of string. Any sort of string will do although it has to be fairly fine, and easy to work with.

Using the thread, take the two ends, and tie them together. At the end you should get a circle shape. Cut off the ends if you like to ensure that it won't get in your way later although you can just as easily leave it on.

Then, wind the thread together for around 10 times depending on the hair strands, and the quality of the string. You can experiment what type of thread, and the amount of times winded will give your skin the best quality.

Next insert your hands at both end, and do the scissors motion; one hand will be opened while another closes. Try to move the center winded piece up and down along the string. Push the center piece in both directions on the skin with facial hair, and before long, you'll find all the facial hairs gone.

Threading can be a hard technique to master; thus, it is important to practice with time. Before threading on your face, it would be smart to practice on your thighs and legs; ensure that the hair is being pulled off - the tingly feeling is very noticeable when strands of hair are being pulled out.

Threading is a wonderful technique to master as you can get rid of the facial hair almost anywhere you go; it's really pretty handy! Although it may take a while before you can fully master the technique, threading will normally rid your face with hairs for about a month or two. Normally, the threading technique will be able to guarantee that the hair being grown out again is finer compared to the original ones; also, some of the hair will never grow back again.

If you're not exactly sure how threading should look like or feel like, I would suggest you get it done professionally before considering whether or not to use it for yourself. Also, one last warning: threading is a very hard technique to master, so don't give up, and keep on practicing until you get the basics all handled.
