Anyone else get their brows threaded?

I was just wondering if anyone else got their eyebrows threaded at those brow bar places they have? I've been using the same girl at Superdrug every two weeks for about a year, and I suddenly started freaking out that maybe I shouldn't be getting them done whilst pregnant (am 25 weeks)?

Cant think of any reason why you should not get them done.

Enjoy having the time to get them done while you still can.

I've had mine waxed the whole way through, can't think why there would be any problems with having them done? I think some people find their skin is more sensitive but not found that personally.

Are you serious? So I guess I shouldn't be plucking my eyebrows in case the baby feels it?! Why in the name of God should you not get eyebrows threaded during pregnancy, I mean really. I'm interested in what possible reason you could come up with.

Ah, just saw your other thread, that explains it. Anxiety is making you question this, as there is no rational reason there would be a problem with it.
