What to expect

Before & after

Before you come

Come with a clean face around the brows — no heavy foundation, brow gel or pomade
Let the hair grow for 2–3 weeks if you've been tweezing, so there's something to shape
Skip exfoliating acids, scrubs and retinol on the area the night before
Bring a photo if you want a particular brow shape

Aftercare

Don't touch or pick the area for a few hours — fingers carry bacteria into open follicles
Skip makeup, steam rooms, saunas and hot yoga for 12–24 hours
No exfoliants, retinol or acids on the area for 24 hours
Apply SPF the next morning; freshly threaded skin is a little more sun-sensitive

I’m coming from the University of Waterloo — does threading suit sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Usually yes — nothing is applied to the skin and nothing is pulled across it, so threading causes less redness than wax; active spots are worked around, never over. Getting here from the University of Waterloo takes two ION stops away, about 6 minutes on the train, and most University of Waterloo clients keep to the usual rhythm: every 3–4 weeks.
