Threading (also called fatlah
or khite) is a form of hair removal long practiced in India, Pakistan and the Middle East. In the hands of a skilled technician,
threading results in clean lines to the eyebrows, and can be used
to remove hair from the upper lip and the face. New York City
women have recently discovered this practice and it’s become the method of choice for stylish eyebrow shaping.
The technician
uses a piece of 100% cotton thread which is twisted and pulled along the area of unwanted hair, lifting hair directly from the follicle.
The pain experienced during threading is no worse than that
experienced during tweezing or waxing.
Unlike waxing, threading
will not cause irritation or rashes. Unlike tweezing, threading is more efficient because it removes several hairs at
once
