I get my eyebrows threaded in the UK, I don't think it's anymore painful than waxing but the advantages with threading over waxing are that:
*You don't have hot wax put on your face, which tends to be more sensitive than other parts of your body and therefore the plucked skin recovers quicker.
*Threading is really precise and the beautician uses the thread as a way to measure and angle the eyebrows so that you end up with as symmetrical eyebrows as possible.
*Threading picks up the shortest of hair which may not always happen with waxing.
Having said, I do get my eyebrows waxed as well but my preference is threading. Go on ladies, give a go, you'll be pleasantly surprised. If you can bea waxing, threading won't be painful at all.
Coming out to Fethiye tomorrow, I cannot wait as I've just checked the temperature out there and it's scorching fabulous!
