WAXING

​

Threading is an ancient way to remove unwanted facial hair. 

 

A cotton thread is pulled along unwanted hair in a twisting motion, trapping hair in what can be described as a mini lasso that uplifts it right out of the follicle.  Because it removes hair from the follicle, it can last up to six weeks. 

​

No chemicals are used on the skin, so it’s great for anyone that has sensitive skin or allergies.

​

Temporary results can turn into permanent results over time, as frequent threading can cause the hair follicle to become damaged and this can eventually stop growing hair.

​

It's extremely sanitary. Only the thread touches the skin and it’s thrown away after each use, so there are no worries about double-dipping like with waxing, or other tools not being sanitised.

​

The discomfort has been compared to tweezing, but threading removes hair quickly, so it's over sooner than tweezing.

AFTER CARE ADVICE ​

​

• Threading is considered the best alternative to waxing and tweezing, and it is very gentle on your skin. Yet, those with sensitive skin may experience a little redness after a treatment that should not last long.

​

• If you experience a discomfort, it is advisable to apply a cold compress over the treated area followed by toner or cooling gel that contains aloe Vera or witch hazel.

ACTIVITIES TO AVOID

​

The hairs from the face are removed from the follicle, leaving the pores on the skin open for at least 2 to 3 hours. 

​

• Avoid touching the treated area for 2-4 hours.

​

• No make-up or perfumed products should be applied for 2-4 hours.

​

• Avoid steam treatment or heat source like sun bathing / tanning beds, hot baths or sauna for at least 24 hours.

​

• Avoid swimming or spray tanning 24-48 hours post threading.​
