Lorraine Onorato's Profile
I qualified as a Beauty Therapist in 1995 gaining experience in
the industry before running my own business. From 2003 I
began to teach ITEC Diploma Courses at North East Surrey
College of Technology and during that time I have achieved
the Certificate in Education and further industry
qualifications. I write examination questions for CIBTAC and
more recently have been asked to become a Technical Officer
for Threading at the Asian Style Awards
(asianstyleawards.org.uk) assisting the regulation of South
Asian treatments and training as well as judging at their
awards. I will soon be writing a regular feature in their
trade journal.
I had my eyebrows Threaded many years ago
at an exhibition in London and was very impressed with the
result but I became aware that there was a need for trained
'Threaders' and Accredited Threading Courses available as it
was so new to the UK.
The Threading Course was
established in 2006 and is Approved by the CThA
(Complementary Therapists Association), BABTAC and GPBT
(Guild of Beauty Therapists) for Continuing Professional
Development and carries 10 CPD Credits. The course is
very professional and informative covering all related
theory, three practical techniques and assessments of both
at the end of the day. There is also the opportunity to
discuss marketing and advertising methods and networking
with other therapists on the training which past students
have found useful. Students leave at the end of the day
feeling well informed and having the confidence to practice
their new skill safely.
I am listed on the websites
for Approved Course Providers for all three associations so
please take a look. (www.complementary.assoc.org.uk,

Threading
What is Threading? Threading is a form of temporary hair removal,
an ancient manual technique similar to plucking. It involves
the use of a loop of twisted cotton thread which is passed
across the skin to trap the hairs and so 'pluck' them from
their follicles.
Where did it originate? Threading has
been used for many centuries. Is origin is a little
ambiguous but it is believed that it was first used in
Arabia, Turkey and India.
What are the benefits of
Threading? Threading is a simple, cheap and an efficient
way of removing unwanted hair with minimal pain and skin
irritation. The results are neat with approximate regrowth
between 2-4 weeks. Very short hair can be removed and there
is little irritation to the area making it possible to go
over the area more than once. Hair can be removed
individually or in 'lines' to create a perfect shape and can
be removed from both above and below giving the threaded
eyebrow its characteristic groomed appearance. Threading is
also good for individuals that have undergone strong acne
treatments e.g. roaccutane , retin A.
What type of Thread
is used for Threading ? A 100% anti-bacterial cotton
thread imported from India is used for Threading . This
thread allows strength but resilience during the technique
whilst reducing the risk of infection.
What areas can be
'Threaded'? Threading is mainly performed on the face
e.g. Eyebrows, upper lip, chin, sides of face, nose,
ears, neck and forehead but can be used all over the body
