My SO threw an after-party two weekends ago, in which I did not participate as I needed to work Monday. Monday evening as I returned from an exhausting day of work and classes, I was welcomed home by my beautiful dog and a somewhat semi-cleaned, in the terms of male cleanliness, house.

Our upstairs bathroom and bedroom are attached and during parties, this bathroom is usually trashed. This time I thought I tricked the party-goers by locking the bathroom door from inside but an exceptional smart (insert sarcasm) was able to enter our unlocked bedroom and get to the bathroom. Sure, bathrooms are used for various events in a woman’s and man’s life. Sure, you’ve been partying for a long time now and your eye makeup probably doesn’t look as fresh as it did twenty hours ago. We’ve all been there. Sure, go ahead - use my eye makeup remover and leave the used cotton balls on the sink and the cotton ball container on the toilet. Oh hey, why don’t you also rummage through my makeup and see if you like anything? Smelling bad? Use some of my perfume and as a parting gift: Take my Tweezers. I don’t need them, shit, I am not even there!

Maybe I sound a little bitter but I am now going on the second week without tweezers. My overgrown eyebrows are flowing down over my almond shaped eyes and I am finding it hard to see. I could go on to tell you what I’d like to do with the person who misplaced my tweezers but when a girl is found with tweezers sticking out of her eyeball I don’t want the evidence to come back to me.
                
I guess I have to justify the above rant with some substance. Personally, I tweeze touch-up my eyebrows a couple times a week. Otherwise, I get waxed at my nail salon: Moon Nails. (See old post) Although once in a while I will get threaded!

Threading is an ancient method of hair removal practiced in many Asian countries. Practitioners use a pure, thin, twisted cotton thread which is rolled over untidy hairlines, mustaches and so on, plucking the hair at the follicle level. Unlike tweezing where a single hair is pulled out each time, threading can remove an entire row of hair, resulting in a straighter line.


Vinita’s Threading Studio has several locations in the Los Angeles area. I have only been to the Westwood location but was always happy. I just tend to gravitate towards getting multiple things done at one place which is why I mostly wax my eyebrows now. http://www.threadingstudio.com/  If you have never been threaded, give it a try and if you have my tweezers or know where they are please contact me.
