Precise, ancient technique — no redness, all shape.
An ancient Middle Eastern and Indian hair-removal technique using twisted cotton thread — precise, gentle on sensitive skin, and unbeatable for shape.
Why we do it this way.
Threading is ideal for sensitive skin — it's less irritating than wax and leaves no redness. Because the thread picks up hair at any length, it's also perfect for shorter or coarser hair.
For eyebrows especially, threading creates a precise, clean line and defined arch — nothing else quite matches it.
What sets this treatment apart.
Kind to sensitive skin
No wax, no chemicals, no redness — just a clean line of hair lifted from the follicle.
Unmatched precision
Best-in-class for brow shape and short or coarse hair the wax can't grip.
Fast and hygienic
Single-use cotton thread every time. Most treatments in under 10 minutes.
Available in 8 salons
Offered at every Leah's location except Cronulla.
A calm, considered threading experience.
Shape consult
Your therapist maps the ideal brow shape to your face before starting.
Prep
The area is cleansed and lightly powdered so the thread glides.
The thread
A twisted double strand of cotton lifts hair in a clean, straight line — precise and fast.
Finish
A soothing gel calms the skin; foundation is available on request.
Prep like a pro.
- Avoid retinol on the treatment area for 48 hours.
- Skip fake tan on the day — the thread may lift some pigment.
- Let brows grow out a few weeks between reshapes so we have something to work with.
Care that lasts.
- Avoid heavy moisturisers on the threaded area for a few hours.
- Skip makeup on the area for 4–6 hours if possible.
- Rebook brows every 3–4 weeks to maintain shape.

Does threading hurt?＋
There's a small, quick sensation as the hair lifts — most clients find it milder than waxing, especially on the upper lip and cheeks.
Which is better — wax or thread?＋
Wax is faster on larger areas. Thread is unbeatable on brow shape and on skin that reacts to wax. Many clients thread the brows and wax the rest.
