Ancient Arabic manual technique for hair removal. Involves the use of a long, twisted loop of thread rotated rapidly across the skin that traps hair within the tight entwined coils, and pulls or breaks it off.
Threading is an ancient method of hair removal that is still used in parts of the Middle and Far East. Thin, twisted cotton threads are rolled over untidy hairlines, mustaches and so on, plucking the offending hair. In Western countries, threading can still be found being performed in beauty salons.
