Can’t stop watching, won’t stop watching!

Some of us prefer waxing, others plucking and many threading. But do you actually know how the painful process of threading works?

Instead of taking one hair by one like tweezers do, threading removes multiples hairs at a time by twisting and rolling over them.

Check out the video, above.
