10.) Explain the process of threading.
Process of eyebrow threading
Step 1: Knot the ends of the thread together forming a loop.
Step 2: Place forefinger, middle finger and thumbs through each end of the loop in a “cat’s cradle”.
Step 3: Twist the loop at one end approximately a dozen times.
Step 4: Coax the twist into the centre of the loop making sure the knot is at one end near the finger so it doesn’t interfere with the twisting.
Step 5: To start threading, place the upper end of the twist under the unwanted hair, so that they hang over the twisted thread. Spread the lower finger to manipulate the twist in an upward direction, thus entrapping and snagging the unwanted hair and plucking them out.
Step 6: Move the twist towards the lower finger by spreading the upper finger and dropping some of the plucked hair. Shift your focus to another area of unwanted hair. The fingers of an Assistant Beauty Therapist must move quickly, at the rate of one movement every 1/4 seconds.
As the twist becomes congested with hair, the rapid movement of the twisting is inhibited. So twist a new part of the loop or use a new thread.
Step 7: Once the service complete, apply a soothing solution to the skin.
