    I think I have a high tolerance for pain and I found threading painful the very first time. It does get more bearable after that, IMO. My eyes do always water, though.

    I don't do much as far as upkeep. I have little eyebrow razors that I might use to clean up the arch if it's really noticeable to me.
    This post sums up my experience perfectly. I will add that for me the first time REALLY hurt and if you allow the hair to grow too much (space your appts too far apart) it will hurt b/c there is alot more hair.
  • I've just re-discovered this thread - last time I looked there were no answers, and now look!
    Apologies for not saying thankyou sooner.

    I'm still about half a pound away from that mid point (sigh) but I think I'll give the threading a go - once anyway!

    Thanks again for all the input.
  • Update! I weighed after I posted above, and discovered I'd got to the half way point, so took myself off to be threaded.
    Hm. It was the kind of discomfort that I wouldn't do for fun but I could put up with.

    Happy enough with the effect although, tbh, I'd expected it to look more radical. Well, done it once anyway.
  • Congratulations on reaching your goal!!!
