Eyebrow threading

Chantel14, on September 17, 2016 at 11:35 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 17

How soon before the wedding should I get this done? Im three weeks away... but if I do it now will I have to get it done again before? Not sure how long inbetween is the norm! Thanks Smiley smile

    Depends how long your hair grows. I go anywhere between 14-20 days.

    If I'm going to a special event, I get them done the day before. I also have been having my eyebrows thread 7+ years, and experience no redness.

    I went the weekend before to have mine done. It worked well and it was a nice to have a girls day with my sister.

    I find with threading my eyebrows stay "clean" much longer. For me I would go maybe a week and a half or week before. Depends on if you experience a lot of redness or not really.

    I went a day or two before. I've been getting them threaded for years so I knew I didn't have to worry about a reaction.

    You shouldn't really get a reaction i guess it depends on your skin but there could be redness. I would go at the beginning of the week or a few days before. Even the day before would be fine

    I have very sensitive skin so even with threading my skin is red the next day. 3-5 days out you should be fine.

    ETA: I'm a very pale redhead.

    You would probably be okay doing it a few days before. If you've never done it before I wouldn't suggest doing it too close. But a few days is a decent amount of time..like 4-5. Also, milk is very helpful for reducing redness! Sounds weird but I do it all the time.

    I would do it about 2-3 days before. My hair normally begins growing back after a week.

    I get mine done every couple of months, when I notice lots of strays have grown back in.

    I would wait and get it done about 4-5 days before the wedding. In fact, I'm getting a full-face threading (they HURT but are totally worth it).

    I get my eyebrows threaded every three weeks. For my wedding I plan on doing it 2 days before. I don't get very red afterwards.

    I'm doing mine a day to 2 days before but I usually get mine done every 2 weeks so I don't have any kind of redness.

    First time I got them threaded they were amazing. Second time they were red, awful looking, and bleeding. If you've never done it before, do it three weeks before and the week of if you liked it. I'm having mine waxed the week of, I infinitely prefer waxing.
