I will never wax again. A few years ago I got a waxing down at a nail spa and I contracted flat warts. It started at my eyebrows then spread to my whole face. Cleanliness is def the most important thing

Wax probably hurts more due to the contact it comes in with your skin. Threading is basically the same amount of pain as tweezing. As Rebecca said, you REALLY have to be careful about cleanliness with waxing, but threading, I would think, is much safer. You can also do it yourself- I have, pretty easy once you get the hang of it. It's also muuuuch cheaper if you do it yourself. All you really need is thread haha. I would go with threading if I were you

ive been getting my brows threaded for a long time and i think waxing doesnt even hurt in comparison. however, threading is more precise.

Threading hurts more than waxing. My friends that have done both refuse to get threaded again. If waxing is a concern for you regarding cleanliness at a salongl, sally Hansen and a few other brands sell wax strips for face and body at wal mart, target etc. ive heard only positive things about the wax strips. I tweeze my upper lip because its the most precise for me. Lol.

Threading is a lot more painful in my opinion but the results are better :) I'm getting my eyebrows threaded every few weeks and it actually makes me cry lol. But so worth it!!

Threading.... Hands down never felt pain quite like that. 

Threading is terrible! I much prefer waxing and have never had a problem with hygiene.

I've done both but threading is much better! The lines are cleaner and you won't get wrinkles! Waxing pulls your skin

Threading I used to get spots from waxing but now I get threaded and I don't get none plus waxing weaken your muscles

Do both! Wax first to get all the hairs around and then thread to upkeep, it gets more precise.

Rebecca F. -nail salons don't have a license to wax. They do it anyway because they can get away with it. They are known for "double dipping" into the wax- so what goes on your face has other people's face germs. Gross!!!

Threading hurts way worse than waxing, but threading lasts about 6-8 weeks and looks so much cleaner.
