EYEBROW TREADING TREATMENT
Alternative treatment to minimise recovery time.
Brows are red for a much shorter time.
Please ensure you are well hydrated the day before and the day of your treatment.
This will reduce discomfort during your treatment. You may find pain relief tablets 20 minutes prior to treatment and anti-histamines for a couple of days before your treatment will reduce discomfort and minimise any reactions.
We ask that you refrain from swimming, sunbathing and use of sunbeds, steam rooms and saunas for 24 hours before and after any hair removal treatment.
Please avoid applying any products to the area including moisturiser, creams, or oils.
All clients are required to complete a skin analysis consultation card.
This will help your therapist investigate your skin concerns and ensure suitability for treatment.
STEP 1 - CONSULTATION
Your therapist will assess your skin to ensure suitability for the treatment. There are some conditions that are not suitable for waxing treatments

STEP 2 - PRE-TREATMENT SKIN STERILISATION
Your pores will be opened during the treatment. Surgical spirit is applied to the area to remove impurities and reduce risk of follicle infection.
STEP 3 - TREADING HAIR REMOVAL
We aim for you to retain your slugs, we just ensure they are tidy and presentable slugs!
Your brows are brushed, all excess hair above the brow line is removed with scissors. Working in small sections, hair is professionally removed using the ancient technique of threading. Professional cotton is twisted catching unwanted hair. You will be asked to assist in stretching your skin to minimise discomfort. To complete your treatment any remaining random hairs are removed with tweezers.
STEP 4 - AFTER-WAX
Cooling tea-tree and chamomile lotion is applied to the area, this will help to remove any residual wax, guard against infection and soothe the newly waxed area.
Your therapist will take you through your aftercare.
