Forehead threading at Kurves takes about 5 minutes and costs $5. It clears the fine hair across the forehead and can tidy a fuzzy hairline edge, so the skin looks smoother and foundation goes on evenly.

What does forehead threading cover?

The fine, soft hair on the forehead itself, and stray hairs at the edge of the hairline if you want them gone. It is separate from the area between the brows, which is part of eyebrow threading.

Who books it?

People who see a soft fuzz on the forehead under bright light, people whose foundation or powder clings to fine hair, and people with a few stray hairs that blur the hairline. It is also popular before an event or photos, when you want the face to look even from every angle.

Will it change my hairline?

Only if you ask. I clean the fine hair in front of the hairline and leave the hairline itself in place. Show me where you want the edge to sit. If in doubt, we take less; it is easy to do more next visit.

Does forehead threading hurt?

For many people the forehead is one of the easier areas, because the skin is firm and the hair is fine. You feel a light pull for a few minutes. Everyone is different, so tell me if a spot feels tender.

Is it OK for sensitive skin?

Threading puts only cotton thread on your skin, and the American Academy of Dermatology notes it causes little irritation. If you use isotretinoin or a prescription retinoid like tretinoin, ask your doctor before any facial hair removal. If you have a sunburn on your forehead, book once it has healed.
