    I've had mine done once - never again! Not only was the pain too much to take but I had nothing but ingorwing hairs for months after. Ingrowing eyebrow hair is not a pretty sight. ?

    Yes - do you normally get them waxed or is it the first time for either?

    I found threading much less painful than waxing.

    I normally get them waxed. I am in the week before my period though and thats when its more painful isnt it?

    I wonder whether its no more painful just longer lasting.

    It does get better if you have them done regularly. Does anyone else sneeze when they have it done, or am I freaky?

    I don't know anything about threading (I'm addicted to my Tweezermans ? but from bikini waxing experience, your skin just before your period is definitely far more sensitive. The last time I had mine done was about five times more painful than normal - yowch!

    I've had it done a couple of times and it's horrendous whatever time of the month! I usually have them waxed and although that's painful, at least it's quick. |

    I don't find the threading maked me sneeze but if I use the tweezers I always sneeze and it makes my eyes water too.

    Yep definitely gets better and is, in my opinion well worth the pain! After first 4 times my eyes don't even water and I'm a wimp!

    I had it done once and it made me bleed! I will go back to plucking/waxing.

    I do as well and thought i was a bit weird as any time it is mentioned on here it's always about how painful it is. I only get it done when I'm visiting Manchester as there is nowhere around here that does it

    I've never found it painful at all. Maybe its all down to the person that does it?

    I don't think it lasts any longer than having them waxed though.
