In Arabic this method is called khite whereas in Egypt it is called fatlah. In some western countries also there are beauty saloons that use threading hair removal method. Threading is used to remove hair from entire face including eyebrows, upper lip, chin, sideburns and cheeks. Sometimes it is also used to remove hair from belly button to pubic bone and toes.

While doing this the middle part of the cotton is looped through the index and middle fingers of the right hand and the loop is used to trap unwanted hair and pull them from the skin. In some cases some devices can be used to hold the thread during the procedure. Eyebrow threading is a delicate process and requires a professional to perform it.
