For me, it hurts more on longer hair. When I first met my honey, he told me about this whole "threading" nonsense, and I thought he was crazy, but then he attacked my arm
oooooohhhh, the pain...I think you have to get used to it, just like waxing.
He got a tattoo on his arm a few months ago, he asks me to thread the area once in a while to keep it looking nice...I feel like we're two apes grooming each other sometimes.
I've never seen how other threaders do it (besides the ones posted here), but he holds the thread in his mouth and does the cats cradle thing, then moves his hands and head in this khaliji dance sort of way. Is that typical?
