Eyebrow Threading Stafford VA
The shape of your eyebrows has a big impact on the way you look. An expertly manicured brow has the power to lift your features, make your eyes appear larger, and can even contour the shape of your face for dreamy definition.
At DMV Salon, our professional stylists bring years of experience to provide a precise and polished result, drawing on the ancient art of eyebrow threading.
What is Eyebrow Threading?
Used since the days of Cleopatra, eyebrow threading is a time-honored beauty technique. It involves tidying the shape of the brow and improving its overall shape by removing unwanted hairs with a piece of thread.
By twisting a thread around each hair and pulling it swiftly from the root, we can achieve a highly accurate brow design without pulling on the delicate skin around your eyes. Quick, precise, and with minimal pain, our expert technicians can contour your fuzzy caterpillars into the elegant arching wings of a butterfly.

​
How it Works
​
Step One
The brow threading experience starts with a consultation, where we will assess the shape of your face and talk about your brow goals. Experts in putting your mind at ease, our professional technicians can answer any questions you might have at this stage.
​
Step Two
Once we have decided on a brow plan of action, your experienced artist will gently cleanse away any residual makeup from the area and mark out the new silhouette of your brows. This process is known as mapping.
​
Step Three
Taking a long piece of cotton thread, your technician will now work swiftly and quickly to remove any hairs outside the mapped lines, taking time to regularly assess the new shape as it forms.
​
Step Four
To perfect the final brow design, your stylist might carefully trim and brush the remaining hair into place. Your brows will then be wiped with a gentle cleanser before the finished look is revealed to you. Get ready to enjoy beautiful, shapely brows!

Frequently Asked Questions
​
How Does Eyebrow Threading Work?
A bit like waxing or epilation, eyebrow threading pulls each strand of hair away from the root. A thin piece of thread is looped around and twisted back on itself. With a swift pulling motion, the hair is trapped between the twisted thread and pulled from the skin in its entirety, limiting the rate of regrowth. The thin thread and highly trained technicians allow for a surgical level of precision right down to the very last bristle.
​
How Long Does Eyebrow Threading Last?
Eyebrow threading removes hairs right from the root, which means it has long-lasting effects. Most clients find the shape lasts for at least two to three weeks, with some reporting up to four weeks of elegant shape before regrowth begins to appear.
​
How Often Should You Get Your Eyebrows Threaded?
How often to get your eyebrows threaded depends on the rate of your hair growth and your overall brow goals. Most clients visit us every two to three weeks to keep their brows in an expertly contoured condition. Others leave longer between full-scale shaping appointments but pop in for touch-ups to take care of any stubborn hairs or re-growth.
​
Does Brow Threading Hurt?
Brow threading pulls each hair away from the root, so some pain is to be expected. However, many people feel threading is much less painful than waxing. This is because the thread makes little or no contact with the skin and only pulls at the hair. When you wax your eyebrows, a lot of the pain comes from the tape pulling at the delicate skin around your eyes.
​
Is Eyebrow Threading Safe?
Using just a piece of cotton thread, eyebrow threading is considered one of the safest methods of hair removal. Unlike waxing and hair removal cream, no harsh toxic chemicals are applied to skin, making it a great choice for those with sensitivity or acne. It also doesn’t require the use of dangerous lasers around your precious eye area.
Used for hundreds of centuries to enhance the beauty and sophistication of ancient civilizations, this non-invasive technique has been thoroughly tried and tested.
​
What Are the Side Effects?
Side effects are minimal, with any residual redness subsiding within an hour or two of your appointment. If you are prone to breakouts, avoid touching the area afterward and prevent the open pores from becoming clogged by avoiding swimming pools, saunas, spray tans, and makeup for 24 hours.
​
How Much Does Eyebrow Threading Cost?
At DMV Salon, eyebrow threading with a full consultation and facial mapping costs $12-$15, while a touch-up session is as little as $12. This makes maintaining beautiful brows great value for money. With a friendly and caring approach, we believe expert beauty shouldn’t have to break the bank!
