The Benefits of Threading & Waxing Your Eyebrows

When it comes to eyebrow grooming, threading and waxing are two popular methods. Both have unique advantages, but which one is right for you? Here’s a comparison to help you decide.

Precision and Definition.

1. 🌟Threading:

   Threading offers unmatched precision by removing several hairs simultaneously using twisted, sterile threading cotton creating clean, defined brows. Ultimately creating the perfect foray for your face and shape. Threading is at its best when carried out by a trained professional or a specialist in this field.

2. ✨Waxing:

   Waxing removes larger sections of hair at once, which is efficient but also has disadvantages depending on the wax and how the service is delivered.

Skin Sensitivity.

1. 🌿Threading:

   Threading is gentle on the skin, targeting only the hair and avoiding pulling on the delicate skin around the eyes. Ideal for sensitive skin, it also gently exfoliates.

2. 🌞Waxing:

   Waxing can sometimes cause irritation, redness, and even heat burns, especially on sensitive skin. It also removes a layer of dead skin cells. Always patch test first and consult a professional before taking the plunge.

Pain and Discomfort.

1. 😊Threading:

   Threading is generally less painful when performed correctly with the specific threading cotton and a practised experienced hand. The discomfort is brief and results are subliminal over time.

   
2. 😖Waxing:

   Waxing can sometimes be sensitive as it pulls hair from the root and the skin, sometimes the hairs can break but in the hands of a professional this should happen less frequently.

   

Bear in mind if you are feeling under the weather, on medication, are naturally sensitive or are pregnant or hormonal, you may feel super sensitive in either method of hair removal.

Risk of Ingrown Hairs.

1. 🌸Threading:

   Threading has a lower risk of ingrown hairs since it removes hair directly from the follicle.

2. 🌺Waxing:

   Waxing can sometimes lead to ingrown hairs if the hair breaks off instead of being removed entirely.

Duration of Results.

1. 📅Threading:

   Results last 2 to 4 weeks, with slow and fine regrowth. This of course is also dependant on your hair growth patterns and hair type.

2. 📆Waxing:

   Results last 3 to 4 weeks, but regrowth can be quicker if hair breaks off. Again this can depend on your hair type and growth patterns.

Convenience and Speed.

1. ⏰Threading:

   Threading is quick, easy and efficient and can take around 10-15 minutes for a pair of brows. Special threading cotton and a high standard of the Threading art is imperative.

2. 🚀Waxing:

   Waxing can be equally and requires much more preparation, such as heating the wax and using several utensils.

Hygiene and Safety.

1. 💧Threading:

   Threading uses a single piece of sterile threading cotton, which is then discarded hygienically after use. Since 2020 the Art of Threading and its practise at Binni's has been altered to comply with Covid 19 guidelines and remains compliant today.

2. 🧼Waxing:

   Waxing involves multiple tools, increasing the risk of cross-contamination if not handled correctly.

Environmental Impact.

1. 🌍Threading:

   Threading is eco-friendly, using only a biodegradable cotton thread.

2. ♻️Waxing:

   Waxing generates more waste and some waxes contain non-environmentally friendly chemicals. Choose wisely.

Conclusion.

Threading stands out for its precision, gentleness on the skin, and lower risk of ingrown hairs. If you desire beautiful naturally defined brows with minimal discomfort, threading is your ideal choice. For a quicker process with more preparation, waxing is a good option.

That all said, it is a personal preference, whichever method you choose. So we ask you to carry own due diligence and make an informed decision. Call to make a complimentary appointment for a FREE consultation to discuss your brow and tint needs and requirements with confidence.
