Threading is an ancient method of hair removal and is very popular in India, some eastern countries and now in western countries also. We use a pure, thin, twisted cotton thread which is rolled over usually untidy hairlines, moustaches and other areas of unwanted hair, plucking the hair at the follicle level.

Unlike tweezing, where single hairs are pulled out one at a time, threading can remove an entire row of hair, resulting in a straight line.
