Anyone I know who has done it, is obsessed. They claim they'll never pluck again.

My peeps in Jackson Heights are supposed to be the best.

threading is pretty awesome. A russian lady used to thread my eyebrows and I was amazed at her skill... She does it so fast!

I do threading and it hurts like bloody hell.
I would look like Trekkie Monster without threading.
HEH!

I've been getting waxed for years, but I decided to try threading today.

I went to this great Indian woman on Greenich Ave.

It didn't hurt at all, and there was absolutely no redness.

Men look better with natural eyebrows!
Backs are a different story!

Threading? I don't know what that is but it sounds really painful. Can someone explain?

I get 'em waxed...hurts like hell, but who said beauty was painless? At least for us women, hehe. In fact, I had them waxed yesterday. Freaky.

I found threading to be less painful and much more accurate than waxing.

I can't believe how good they look. They look much more natural, and I still have the top layer of my skin around my eyes.

I hate both. I have naturally thick eyebrows like Brooke Shields.
Weight lifting hurts less.
I HATE IT!

When I had my latest headshots, I went to Warren Tricomi to get my brows cleaned up, since they're thick. She used tweezers and wax, and there were involuntary tears streaming down my face.

I wish thick eyebrows were hot!

Lady, I'm bringing them back into style. I think mine ARE hot!

I get my eyebrows waxed every other week when I go in to get my nails done. It hurt when I first started getting them done, but I guess I'm used to it by now.

Google is your friend.

Um, I'm pretty sure that's not where he was even going with guys...

Edit: Oh, I had them threaded once and it hurt so. effing. badly. The result was gorgeous, but I'd never do it again. I was literally crying. I get them waxed occasionally, but I usually just get lazy and pluck them. Updated On: 1/12/06 at 04:40 PM

Great Indian Women on Greewich. (8th st. & 6th Ave.) I never had it done, and thought it was going to hurt, but it was not nearly as bad as having them waxed.

I'm a true believer. And, at $7 and 10 minutes, it is much cheaper and better than some little asian lady blowing on a stick (no happy ending) and shmearing my eyes. A couple times, it left little scabs up there. Don't need that.

Just got my first threading done last week and would never go back to plucking. (Never waxed because of the possible imprecision.) Even though she didn't tell me exactly what it entailed, and suddenly it felt like she was sawing off the skin around my eyes, the end result is truly fantastic. And you only need to get it redone every 2-3 weeks. CAD$5.
