Brow shaping with thread and wax

With thread or with wax, depending on the area and on your skin. A quarter of an hour either way, and if you also want the upper lip, there is a package of the two.

Brow waxing and threading prices

  • Brow threading

    €12.90

    15 min

    Threading lets us draw the brow hair by hair and correct the line without taking too much, which is the hardest mistake to fix. It does not drag the eyelid. Fifteen minutes. Holds three to four weeks. This is what we recommend if you are changing the shape.

  • Brow waxing

    €9.90

    15 min

    Brows waxed along the shape you already have, clearing between and around them. Fifteen minutes. Holds three to four weeks. If you want to redesign the shape, or the skin on your lids is thin, threading gives more precision and does not drag.

  • Brow and lip threading

    €19.90

    20 min

    Brows and upper lip in one session, the combination most people ask for. Twenty minutes. Holds three to four weeks. You save close to three euros against booking the two areas apart, and the whole upper third of the face is settled at once.

Brow waxing and threading FAQs

Which is better for brows, threading or wax?

Threading if you want to change the shape or have thin skin on the eyelid: it works hair by hair and does not drag. Wax if you are just keeping the shape you already have and want to be done in 15 min. €12.90 for threading, €9.90 for wax.

Does brow threading hurt more?

It is a different kind of discomfort, more spread out and shorter. Wax pulls the skin all at once; threading goes hair by hair. People with reactive skin usually find threading easier.

How often should I have my brows done?

Every three to four weeks with either method. Coming sooner leaves little to work with.

Can you fix over-plucked or badly shaped brows?

Almost always. Sometimes the first appointment means removing almost nothing and marking the line we are aiming for, so what is missing can grow back with a shape to follow.

Can I have my brows done if I use retinol or acids?

Not with wax: it is not recommended because the skin can lift. With threading, yes, because nothing is applied to the skin. Mention it when you book and we will use threading.

How long does it take?

15 min, with threading or wax. The brows and upper lip threading combo takes 20 min and is €19.90.

Can I have my brows shaped and tinted in the same appointment?

Yes, that is brow design: €25.90 and 30 min, waxing and tint included.

Does the area go red afterwards?

With wax there may be some redness for twenty or thirty minutes, and we apply a soothing product at the end. With threading the redness is milder and goes sooner.
