Threading Over Waxing

Eyebrow threading is one of the most popular methods for safe hair removal which is why I love it. Who wouldn't want a 100% cotton thread removing their eyebrow or lip hair? It's believable that waxing isn't the best choice to remove facial hair because it is harsh on sensitive skin and can cause chemical burns and skin damage. One of the benefits of threading is that there is little contact to the skin so there is no skin damage. The process of eyebrow threading is quick, less painful and lasts longer. For a girl who has the lightest eyebrows growing up, waxing wasn't the best choice. Instead of crying while plucking each hair out one by one, threading grabs one line of hair removing it instantly. If you want that 'eyebrows on fleek caption,' you can count on threading to create that attractive arch and shape. Eyebrows can change the entire way your face looks.

There are no dangerous chemicals while getting brows threaded. Waxing can cause reactions and irritations. Threading will protect your skin from being raw, red or even inflamed. For people with sensitive skin or those who suffer from acne, believe it is a better alternative. Threading is also more sanitary, and you can be sure that your thread has not been used on anyone else. For waxing, there is a high chance of double dipping which can lead to a skin infection. Threading is much kinder to the skin and is less painful than other methods of hair removal.

Threading lifts the hair from the follicle and weakens the follicle so hair growth becomes less dense over time and new hair will grow finer and sparser. Threading is free of any chemicals. All it needs is a pure 100%, strong, and good quality, cotton thread. It removes facial hair effectively. It is especially preferred for eyebrows, lip, sideburns, chin, neck and fingers. Unlike the waxing or sugaring method, threading is simple and is not messy. There is no wax or sugar syrup to melt and apply and no pain while pulling out the hair.

With waxing, you must wait until hair is a certain length before you can remove it, which for many clients means an unruly brow between treatments. In the case of facial hair, threading is once more precise with longer lasting results. You must let the hair grow to a certain length because it often means unwanted hair growth between treatments. Threading is definitely better than waxing and saves you from discomfort.

Threading is an inexpensive method which takes no more than 15 minutes. I feel like a new person whenever I get them done and I love the arch. You might not be able to get them done in all nail salons, but definitely at the mall or somewhere nearby.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
