You get a much better shape with threading. It's quite easy to learn so once you get a shape done professionally you can just clean them up yourselves!
I haven't got my eyebrows done professionally in over 2 years and they look good still lol.
I got mine threaded once, but, I'm too flippin uncoordinated to do it myself....grrr, I watched about a dozen you tube videos trying to get the technique down. So, I just wax my own brows. I've been doing waxing since I was about 14 so it takes me about 5 minutes and...it's what works for me. I have much appreciation for all you über coordinated ladies though...seriously.
YMMV, but threading for me was horribly painful. Then again, tweezing is painful for me as well. My eyebrows seem to be horribly sensitive when it comes to those sorts of things, but I wax them myself and have no problem with pain at all.
Or I just had an inexperienced threader, who knows.
A friend of mine who is originally from Pakistan, she does it herself since it is a common thing where she is from and she says it HURT more than tweezing and plucking but a lot easier since it does get the small and fine hairs. Though she has never gotten hers waxed before so she cannot make that comparison.
I am going to get them threaded when I hit my goal of 166 as a "reward" to myself.
I finally did the eyebrow threading and I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! It looks 100% better than waxing. It looks so neat and clean. It HURT LIKE HECK!!! But it was all worth it. The Indian lady told me to keep saying, "Pain Is Beautiful". LOL. So, I kept saying it. LOL. It took about 5 minutes and she was done. It was only $11.00. She said that it should last about 3 - 4 weeks depending on how fast my eyebrows grow. I will be going back. I will try for a more thinner eyebrow. I think they are still too thick. But all and all, I LOVE EYEBROW THREADING!!
