Threading has more than one meaning and I was curious why the neighbourhood manicurists advertise ‘threading’.
My new hairstylist informed me that threading refers to an eyebrow treatment. I envisioned a steady hand painlessly sewing threads to the skin. A sparse brow nicely filled. Oh no, she corrected. Threading trims the brow by removing a row at a time. According to her client with the best-looking brows the technique involves a flying thread, strong teeth, and head/hand coordination. Now I wanted threading and everything I wanted to know was answered quite thoroughly in this online guide.
