Wow. You are brave. I've ripped my skin with those so threading is a picnic by comparison.
Op, sadly I get my full face done every ~6 weeks.
Ahh! Now I'm scared! The ones I've bought (some from SAlly Beauty or something) haven't been all that strong/sticky. Now I know there is some brand floating around out there that will rip my skin off.

Buy a Tria. Money well spent.

OP here. What do you use on your lips? Yeah the threading hurt worse than the waxing but I got better and longer lasting results for the threading...
I use the strips that already have wax on them. You cut to size, rub between your palms, and then just stick and rip. For me, they don't work on coarse areas (like eyebrows), but they work nicely on the fine peach fuzz on my lip or under sideburns, those kind of areas. I do threading on my eyebrows.
For my lip, I will put threading off forever because I dread the pain so much, so even though the wax may not get it quite as well, I'm much more likely to do it frequently (and easy since it is at home vs going to the threading shop), so it works out better for me. Nothing wrong with threading if you can handle the pain though, I just found it very extreme (and my brows don't bother me a bit to get threaded).
+1. I buy Nad's strips for bikini and cut them down to size. Quick & easy.

I just shave it once per week or so. No stubble and it's painless.

Consider electrolysis.

I'm of a hairier persuasion and do it once a month. I could do it bimonthly but there's not quite enough regrowth to justify it. Now brows...those could be done weekly. Sigh.
