Threading is a hair removal technique that utilizes a thin, doubled cotton or polyester thread to remove hair from the follicle. The results of this method typically last between 3 to 8 weeks. This timeframe can vary based on individual hair growth cycles and the area being treated, but generally, threading is considered effective at removing hair and delaying regrowth for several weeks.

During the threading process, multiple hairs are removed simultaneously, which can lead to a longer-lasting result compared to other hair removal techniques, such as shaving. Factors like hair type, thickness, and individual skin types may influence how long the results last, but on average, clients can expect their skin to remain smooth for about 3 to 8 weeks following a threading session.
