Threading Over Waxing

Eyebrow threading is one of the most popular methods for safe hair removal which is why I love it. Who wouldn't want a 100% cotton thread removing their eyebrow or lip hair? It's believable that waxing isn't the best choice to remove facial hair because it is harsh on sensitive skin and can cause chemical burns and skin damage. One of the benefits of threading is that there is little contact to the skin so there is no skin damage. The process of eyebrow threading is quick, less painful and lasts longer. For a girl who has the lightest eyebrows growing up, waxing wasn't the best choice. Instead of crying while plucking each hair out one by one, threading grabs one line of hair removing it instantly. If you want that 'eyebrows on fleek caption,' you can count on threading to create that attractive arch and shape. Eyebrows can change the entire way your face looks.

There are no dangerous chemicals while getting brows threaded. Waxing can cause reactions and irritations. Threading will protect your skin from being raw, red or even inflamed. For people with sensitive skin or those who suffer from acne, believe it is a better alternative. Threading is also more sanitary, and you can be sure that your thread has not been used on anyone else. For waxing, there is a high chance of double dipping which can lead to a skin infection. Threading is much kinder to the skin and is less painful than other methods of hair removal.

Threading lifts the hair from the follicle and weakens the follicle so hair growth becomes less dense over time and new hair will grow finer and sparser. Threading is free of any chemicals. All it needs is a pure 100%, strong, and good quality, cotton thread. It removes facial hair effectively. It is especially preferred for eyebrows, lip, sideburns, chin, neck and fingers. Unlike the waxing or sugaring method, threading is simple and is not messy. There is no wax or sugar syrup to melt and apply and no pain while pulling out the hair.

With waxing, you must wait until hair is a certain length before you can remove it, which for many clients means an unruly brow between treatments. In the case of facial hair, threading is once more precise with longer lasting results. You must let the hair grow to a certain length because it often means unwanted hair growth between treatments. Threading is definitely better than waxing and saves you from discomfort.

Threading is an inexpensive method which takes no more than 15 minutes. I feel like a new person whenever I get them done and I love the arch. You might not be able to get them done in all nail salons, but definitely at the mall or somewhere nearby.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
