Upper lip threading

[oldbeforem]

I think I need to take action...

Is threading the way to go?

Does is grow back thicker? And do you have to live with stubble whilst you wait for it be long enough to thread?

Or is using a 'no no' better?

Thank you!

Definitely doesn’t come back thicker. I find that in time it has made my hair finer.

I get it done every 6 weeks. It hasn’t made the hair thicker or finer - no change. Possibly grows back slightly more slowly than with waxing. It’s been the most effective method I’ve tried (hot wax in a salon and the home wax strips both give me spots).

The pain is worse than childbirth, though

It’s very good (and cheap). And captures the finer hairs that waxing doesn’t

It's good - doesn't grow back any thicker, same texture not stubble and as others have said, maybe a bit slower. Its quick but it bloody hurts!

Threading is the way to go.

Do not bother with a no-no, very aptly named device. Unless of course you like the smell of singed facial hair and the look of tough, burned stubble...

It's food but buy it smarts. My eyes water when they do the middle bit.
