Threading Q&A

It's a hair removal treatment in which a tightly twisted thread is used to remove hair. The practice originated around central Asia.  

It's natural, quick, doesn't cause ingrowns, and works for all skin types and hair colors with minimal irritation. It also exfoliates skin in the process, leaving you with a beautiful glow.

It's mainly known for eyebrows; a quick threading session is a great way to get that perfect eyebrow shape. However, it can also be used to get rid of facial hairs and sideburns.

It's a very personal choice, but wax has chemicals in it that may cause breakouts. Threading won't irritate your skin as much.

Absolutely! Threading is all-natural and small-scale, causing far less irritation that other hair-removal methods.

You're in luck; threading is ridiculously quick, taking around 15 minutes an appointment. Great for a quick clean-up before a date!

Threading requires a lot more skill than tweezing or waxing, so it's not advisable to try it at home. However, Radhika Beauty Spa offers many threading services if it's something you're interested in trying. For more information and pricing, check our Services page.

If you have acne, threading can be done, but could irritate your skin further.

It's no big deal, so don't worry! It should go away on its own after a while. If it's annoying, put something cold on it, and then moisturize.

A lot longer than waxing or plucking with tweezers, that's for sure! After threading, hair grows back around two to three weeks later.
