Had my eyebrows threaded today

Recommended Posts

I'm used to having my eyebrows waxed, but until today, I'd never tried having them threaded. I was at the mall after work tonight and was walking an noticed a new shop where they do threading. My eyebrows are about 6 weeks out and loooking as horrible as could be expected, so I poked my nose i and checked on prices. $12 to do my eyebrows sounded pretty good to me, so I went in. Wow, it sure has waxing beat and this lady was done in about 15 minutes. My outbrows have never looked so good.

The lady was definitely good. I'm planning on returning in 3 to 4 weeks. Threading was much less painful and looks as good as waxing. Kathryn.

Thanks Kathryn, I will have to give that a try. I've been plucking and a pro job may be much easier and probably better than i can do.

Hugs,

Welcome to the threading club Kathryn. I started doing it about 10 years ago pre transition while overseas, and loved the ease and relative painlessness of it. Now that I'm in my RLE I have been progressively shaping my arches a little bit more each month. Once you find a good technician, stick with them, as the price really can't be beat.

Okay. I guess I'm not understanding. I thought it was extremely painful for everyone the first time. I've had laser and it was not as painful as threading was. I must have been an absolute hairy beast. Because ladies I was almost crying in the chair.I will say that My eyebrows have never looked better and the second time was relatively painless. Lacey

I tried threading before I started getting mine waxed. I found it more painful than waxing, and I didn't like the outcome as much. But hey, everyone's different, and I'm glad its working out for you, Kathryn.

The woman who did my eyebrows was very good. I was really needing them done, My eyebrows was beginning to get to the point where they would have looked good on Groucho Marx, just kidding. I can see where threading could be pretty painful. The lady who did my eyebrows was Middle Eastern and very experienced. My eyebrows look really professional and she was a whole lot less painful than what waxing felt like so I think I'll keep going to her. Kathryn

      @KymmieL do they have you on anti depressants?  Are they certain they are the right ones for you?  Has a psychiatrist been involved?  My physician first put me on an anti depressant and when things got worse for me he added one that was the initial cause of my cancer.  My therapist recommended I had a different need changed things. My psychiatrist agreed with the particular underlying condition and the choice of medications.   everyone is different but if one medication isn’t working there are many different types and different underlying conditions that require different treatments.  No meds mentioned because what didn’t work and what did all depends on your case, not mine.   Willow

      To me loving myself means having the courage to live the way I want and to be me.     I hardly ever really like how I look but I feel good knowing I am trying to be the best version of myself that I can be. It is definitely a struggle sometimes though.  💗Cynthia

      I had a five hour road trip today.  I’m trying to grow my hair out so I just pushed it back with a pink hair band, lipstick and gloss, no makeup.    White spaghetti strap top, short black skirt, white sandals with pink toenails!  A couple of rings and bracelets, necklace and hoop earrings.   I felt like a hot mess but it’s my favorite way to travel!

      Glad you had a good day, @Willow Mine on the other hand sucked. I have been screwing up again, I even got written up. I may have to educate them on major depression and disability. not that it will work.    OH, well. May be another job I lost because of me. Yes, my depression is about down at the magma level   Kym

      This bag is really working out for me.  I had worn out the back on my yin-yang bag so I picked this one up.  It wasn't long before I cut off the flap on it and braided a hemp strap for it.  The zipper is the best feature.  I can spin the bag around and I'm not afraid of losing anything.  I've taught myself to keep all the essential things in it and nothing more.  Here is what made the cut:   Notepad Sharpie Ballpoint Pen Teaspoon Glasses Phone (most of the time) Wired Headphones and/or Bluetooth Carmex and/or Lipstick Flash Drive Current Braiding Project Wallet Hair Clip   And on my keys I have my one inch Swiss Army Knife with scissors and a bottle opener that I like using with mason jar lids.   I don't miss pockets at all now.  The bag is fun and practical.  I can set it on the ground to get everything off my body.  If I need something, I'm looking for a fairly large object.  I always have something to work on with the braiding project.

      Mine was Hatshepsut, an Egyptian pharaoh who had to carry herself as a male in order to rule. I was completely facinated by her as a student.

      Well it was a good day at work I got everything done I needed to do. My audits came out right and everything.  I had to fix the printer on one pump. It wouldn’t cut the paper and needed two parts replaced.  The District Manager left us Thank you bags,  Murphy Bucks and candy.  We can use Murphy bucks to buy things in the store, or pay for gas.  I guess next week the Area Manager will be around to check on things.  He would be the next layer higher.  Well my eyelids are starting to get heavy, time for a nap.thats the only thing about opening the store it definitely causes me to need a nap.

      Interesting point. I was raised Catholic and was intensely intrigued by the lives of saints. Similar to your obsession with Mulan, I was particularly drawn to Joan of Arc, a 15th century saint who took on the guise of a man to lead the French army to victory over the English in the Hundred Years' War. Later, she was sold out by the Burgundians to the English who brought multiple charges against her as a heretic, including claiming she could communicate directly with God (which undermined the church's authority), and wearing men's clothes. At one point, while imprisoned, she was made to dress in women's clothes, which she did, but was later found again in men's attire which she said she preferred. She was eventually burnt at the stake at age 19. Rather gruesome tale, but not atypical of the stories of Catholic martyrs.

      I just read something a FB friend posted about guilt.  I am changing it somewhat for here.   There are things you should not feel guilty about because they are not wrong.  Being transgender is one. People like to send us on guilt-trips about it, intentionally or unintentionally.   There are things you have actual guilt about whether you feel guilty or not.  If you murder someone, you may not feel any guilt.   The FEELING of guilt can be widely separated from objective guilt. All of us need to train ourselves to not feel guilty about things we are not guilty of,, and to feel guilty about the things we are guilty of.  It is not easy.
