What we do...

Making it possible for independent threading salons to open up, without fear of being fined by the state (since there was no regulation or rules on this Indian method of hair removal in America).

What we do:

Sona Threading specializes in an ancient method of hair removal originating in India. In more recent times it has gained popularity in Western countries. 

How it works:

In threading, a thin (cotton or polyester) thread is doubled, then twisted. It is then rolled over 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 short lines of hair.

Advantages cited for eyebrow threading, as opposed to eyebrow waxing, are that it provides more precise control in shaping eyebrows and is more gentle on the skin. It can be painful as several hairs are removed at once: however this can be minimised if it is done professionally.

There are a few different techniques for threading. These include the hand method, mouth method and neck. Each technique has advantages and disadvantages; however, the mouth holding method is the fastest and most precise.
