Then placethe thread around the fingers of both hands. Push the part thatis wound up towards one hand by widening the fingers of one handand at the same time closing the fingers of the other hand.

Keep pushing the wound upportion back and forth until you are able to push it back andforth easily. Once you have the hang of it, you might be readyto start practicing on a body part. Don’t use the upper lip as apractice point. Try the leg or some other body part that iseasily accessible.

Begin by placing the thread on the portion of your leg orelsewhere that you are going to first try. Place the wound parton one end of the hair, and the thread from the other side shouldbe on both sides of the hair you want to remove. Next, move thewound portion to the other side, making sure that it catches thehair while moving. It will then lift the hair from the root as itmoves back and forth.

After you’ve practiced this method and are fairly comfortablewith it, move onto your upper lip. It’ll be quick and easy,taking only a couple of minutes every other day. How wonderfulwill it be to always have a hairless lip!
