Hi,

My Asian friend who stays in London suggested to me to try out eyebrow threading rather than waxing.

I hear that it is not that painful and the shape also comes out to be good.

I was wondering if anyone can help me find a salon which provides eyebrow threading near city centre in Sheffield.

Thanks in advance.

What do they do? I've never heard of it before?

Is it that where they use cotton thread?

Wouldn't want it doing myself, unless they'd had a good few years under their belt:suspect:

I think instead of using tweezers, it uses thread to shape the eyebrows and its much faster than tweezers.

Here's what I found on the internet about threading.

Threading is a hair removal technique that uses a cotton thread. The 100% cotton thread is twisted and rolled along the surface of the skin entwining the hairs in the thread, which are then lifted out from the follicle. It is said to be more precise than waxing.

There is a salon on Abbeydale road and a lady called Nageena owns it. I'm sure that she does is. I think it is called essential beauty. Across form the Italian deli.

Thanks, will definitely try it out and see how it goes.

Thanks again

She's lying to you, she wants you to suffer!

A friend of mine has it done and it's good but makes her eyes water.
The wife of the owner of the papershop on Wostenholme Road does it. I'm under the impressions he's open to do it for anyone but charges of course.

Ive had this threading method on my eyebrows done a few years ago and I must say it gave excellent results much better then waxing plus it never left you looking like you had been smacked in the head, the other best thing about threading was it didnt leave those little black dots which correct me if Im wrong is the hair folicle that you usually get left with after waxing, it was fast as well, as for the pain it wasnt that bad, just slight pinching.

I havent been able to find another asian beautician since to repeat this method so I have to resort to plucking my own.

Hi i was wondering wether anyone knows were i can get me eyebrows threaded within the city centre iv been told its really good alot better than waxing and plucking :)

Is she still there ?? She used to do my nails ages ago - she is very good.
Oh and she is a top girl too !

the address is

555 ATTERCLIFFE ROAD
SHEFFIELD
S9 3QP

NEAR THE BOTTOM OF STANIFORTH ROAD

and yes, she is first class

I thought someone else would have already asked this but ..... what on earth is eyebrow threading???? sounds painful!

its a process of using thread to shape eyebrows to a defined shape.

more precise than wax or plucking

quicker and a lot less painfull

Bet it would cost a bomb to have mine (http://perso.orange.fr/rigby/images/1healy.jpg) done :hihi:

thank you so much ill av a look into it and see when i get there

Oooh it sounds interesting... let me know if you find anywhere that does it and let us have a before and after pic :P I love neat eyebrows. Greybeard THEY would put me off my dinner :gag: lol

I have had mine done before, it is so much better than anything else. I don't think the lady still does it that did mine though, was on abbeydale road, she got pregnant and stopped working, don't think she started again.

ooh this sounds interesting..think i will try having mine done there.

I had my eyebrows threaded at illusionz..it was right good..lady that did them was so down to earth too..doubt i will ever have them waxed again now ive had this done!!

Hi sorry to bring this thread up from months ago!

But with threading, do you have to grow the hairs, like you do with waxing?

I saw a lady having this done once at a barbers/hairdressers in town by a turkish looking man (didn't know what it was called though at the time). It was bout 6 months ago at that barbers at the top of the moor opposite Debenhams, can't remember what the shop is called sorry.....

There is a similar thread today in Sheffield Discussion with some more contacts for threading. I've used Illusions in Attercliffe and found her very good if a little overenthusiastic (maybe I should have specified how neat I wanted my eyebrows to be. I don't like to look too well preened ;)

my friend is a beautician, she said its quite popular with asian women and there isn't much difference in results between tweezers and threading, its just something novel and faddy that has caught on with western women

hiya all.

im a fully qualified beautician based in city centre, just off division st
i charge 5 pounds for eyebrows, and 3.50 for upper lip.

if u would like more info or to book an appointment pls call
sharan 07731 333211.anytime!

And you do threading ?

I had my eyebrows threaded in India, it just seemed to take seconds and I was really pleased with the result. I didn't feel any pain I think I was so in awe of the technique being used.

[QUOTE=Lindseyw;2394353]And you do threading ?[/QUO

thanks

I'm glad this thread (sorry for the pun!) has been resurrected as I would like to get my eyebrows done too. I've taken your details Miss S so expect a call soon!

Does anyone get there eyebrows threaded, if so where? I can't seem to find anywhere.

:o Whats that Jess?

Erm, how do I explain. It is where someone has a piece of cotton and twists it around the hairs you don't want, a bit like waxing but a lot more acurate and can get smaller hairs. Also doesn't hurt the skin like waxing does. I used to have an Asian lady do it for me but I've lost touch. Hope this explains Moonbird :D

Merged threads

Try the "Brow Lounge" in Debenhams Meadowhall, Ive had a taster from one of the girls and they are excellent!! It opens at the end of August, or "Benito Brow Bar" (also in Meadowhall and opening in September 2008 I think).

They take out all the ingrown hair too if done correctly.

I think Mint in Meadowhall do it.

I also saw it advertised in another salon, but I cant remember where!!!:loopy:

I've tried plucking my eyebrows before, but I can't handle the pain and stall. I think the most I've ever got out in 2 hairs. :| I'm terrified of trying anything like waxing, but threading sounds painful too! Anyone got any advice?

Just had my eyebrows threaded by Vaneesha. They look absolutely brilliant, and she is lovely.

I didn't know you could get it done here now, I've had mine done before in Egypt, they do always it to the mens eyebrows too when they have a haircut

Oh glad one in Meadowhall is opening up i will deffo be going there!

My sister has it done in Greater Manchester and swears by it! and she wouldnt have her eyebrows done at all before!

I've found that my eyes stream uncontrollably when I have mine done, but that seems to be inevitable.

thereis a hairdressers in sheffield opposit debenhams next to where h samuels used to be,a gentlemen (turkish i think )does threading at £6 per time and damn good he is too.

Thankyou

my friend had hers done in turkey this year, she said it was painful and made her eyes water but she said that she has not had to pluck her eyebrows for 10 weeks :) let me know how much it costs if you find some where as i might give it a go

Hey...
Threading is actually not a painful procedure if the skin is held taut and done by a killed specialist. But then everyone has a different pain threshold.Usually during or right before ones period is the time when it may hurt but otherwise threading is one of the safest,long lasting,chemical free and relatively painless amongst other temporary hair removal procedures. Threading is performed by by a technician by wrapping a cotton thread around her fingers to catch a significant amount of hair by the thread.I would suggest that if one is a bit scared with the thought of it is to ask the technician to try it on your hand.

Hi all

I also do threading (have 8 years experience). You can PM me for more details!

I've just found this new salon which does threading at the amazing price of £3 for eyebrows.

Shezza, the beautician did a fantastic job on mine and I'll be returning soon.

She also charges £1.50 for upper lip and £5 for full face which quite frankly sound about as appealing as a Brazilian (there's some hair I can live with!)

The haircuts look pretty reasonable in price too.

The telephone number is 07882 476996 and it's just hear Highfields Playground/Mount Pleasant Park

The Lash & Brow Lounge at Toni & Guy on Ecclesall Road does Threading treatments. Please call 07588289753 for an appointment.

It is great I last had mine done whil visiting friends in essex.
I went to blue water wow they are fast at it and it leaves your eyebrows looking great.

i love threading it's so tidy and really frames the face

Hi - what is the best place in town to get threading - don't want to go in Debenhams. Cheers

Go to Illusionz beauty salon, ask for Vinisha she does eyebrow threading and has been in the business 10 years. The address is 555 Attercliffe Rd Sheffield s9 3rn tel no 0114 2618000

It is the Purple shop at the junction of Staniforth Rd & Attercliffe Rd

There is a salon on Abbeydale road and a lady called Nageena owns it. I'm sure that she does is. I think it is called essential beauty. Across form the Italian deli.

The lady you are on about has moved down Attercliffe but I would'nt go there as she is a bit of a dogdy operater using laser equipment while unlicenced, check out the link to the storey=

http://www.thestar.co.uk/action/Salon-probe-over-licence.5843040.jp

I certainly wouldn’t go to either salon on Attercliffe Road - bad experience with both.:rant:

there is a place on Superdrug meadowhall who does threading and is very good and professional.:)

I have been having threading done for years, its definatley less painful than waxing. I would recommend a place, however its in Mexbrough sorry

This sounds like quite a bargain, I usually pay £10 for them done at debenhams... I have had them done at Debenhams a few times and they're really good... Mint can be a bit hit or miss. They seem to have a problem with my eyebrows being blonde... Just because they are light doesnt mean that I can get away with them being messy! :nono:

Why don't you complain at the time, my mrs has hers done here and has no problems.

I do complain at the time, hence why im looking somwhere else! Well lucky for your mrs

I have been having my eyebrows done at Illusionz for 5 years and have never had the issues you mention!!! I've always found Vinisha listens to my input and is brilliantly down to earth! I obviously am a regular customer at Vinisha's and have felt the need to respond to your unreasonable comment as I have years of experience dealing with her and seeing her deal with her customers. When any one has raised any objections or concerns over any treatments she has addressed them directly. I have been looking through your posts and noticed that you have only been commenting on threads associated with health/beauty, and are a very new user. I am also well aware that many people come on forums to slander other people's businesses. Not that I'm saying you are. Also previous comments by others who get their eyebrows done by Vinisha and are happy with them kind of speak for themselves!

I know the owner of Illusionz very well and can put money on it that you are lying. When my mrs has hers done she is given a mirror to check they are alright and if they weren't then she would correct them if pointed out.

I never said anything bad about vinisha infact i completly agree with she is down 2 earth and a nice lass. My comment is not unrasonable, i have a right to my opinions and that is what i am doing airing my opinion! Yes i am a new user and have been commenting on threads relating to health/beauty because i have questions regarding them subjects so im posting comments hoping someone will help me out with their replies and yes ur right i am not slandering anyone or their businesses. I am merely airing my opinions i dont mean to sound rude but i havent joined this forum to have debates or arguments with anyone.

you know the owner of illusionz very well maybe thats why your getting defensive. And no you cant put money on me lying because im not! She does show you a mirror at the end but she cant correct over threaded eyebrows. You dont need to get all defensive because all im doing is airing my opinion as i have right to my own opinions! And like i have said in the previous post i havent joined this forum to debate or argue you with anyone!

Nobodys getting defensive,if someone gives you a mirror after to check for yourself than they are doing that for you to check all is well so can't really do a rush job and get away with it.
By over threaded eyebrows i take it you mean thinner than you wanted them, if this is the case i don't think you can say they have been rushed or done with lack of concentration and therefore slag a person off.
