Bare-Bones Must Have:
- Baby Powder
- Mirror
- Thread (preferably 100% cotton)
How To:
- Measure out around 24” of thread (around two forearms length).
- Take the two ends of the string tie it into a knot.
- Once you’ve formed a circle with the thread, twist the center 8-10 times.
- Make sure you’ve prepped your skin with baby powder. Begin moving the thread along your skin against your natural hair growth. If you donÂ’t get it right the first time, be sure to practice on your leg. This will give you a good sense of how threading works and will make it easier to thread your face.
- Have fun and throw lots of threading parties.
