1920s vs. 2024 😲 #shorts

I'm going to need a demonstration... I can't figure out how that works

[Gabi]

For anyone wondering, she already explained how it worked in another video

[lilyreid]

Sounds like threading but with a fancy tool involved

[OreoWithTeeth]

It also hurts like hell, but yk thats okay

[thelonelyarchon]

This is like threading but with a metal contraption. In the salon I go to usually it's just a type of thin thread. IT HURTS LIKE HELL

"If it is applied on the armpits and bikini line then it will be done for ur deth 💀💀💀

[OfflineMe-Yt]

My grandma still has one from when she was younger

Oh and it HURTS. It hurts more than tweezers or waxing, imo. In my country, some people still do the rubber band trick. Tweezers pull hair one or two at a time. The rubber band trick rolls up multiple hairs caught in between, kinda like waxing but more agonizing because it works slower and does not always pull all the hairs in one pass. It takes skill and mastery to do it with less pain.

But anyway, if you pluck your eyebrows or any facial hair with it, it will be even more painful.

My great grandmother used to burn her arm hair off with matches 😅

[bisexufail]

we still have these in 2024 tho...

edit: to clarify, threading (and other similar hair removal practices) has been a thing for a _long_ time.

[lilacheart_]

it absolutely does leave bumps, but they should go down after a day. it’s just pulling each hair out

[elleelleelleelle_______]

The pain our ancestors had to go through breaks my heart. Thank god we don t have to shave our fucking arms anymore

[kerenbrecia]

I feel that 1920s razor looks so hurt .. haha

[lordbob]

I was raised by my great grandmother. I remember when I first asked her for a razor once I was old enough to shave, and she brought be home an epilator. I had never heard of one before. Tried to shave my legs. Screamed. Told her it wasripping out my hair. She's just like, "yeah. Duh."

[Nora-nfnp]

rather use a razor burn and bumps then that thing bcuz it is extremely painful

[AmosOnions]

Success is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.

[tracimetcalf]

There is a reason we are not commonly doing this today, ladies.

[kittenface]

OMG, the purple pink leopard print dress is so cute! You look SO pretty!

[Nintendo]

Actually, women during the roaring 20s did use razors but they were safety razors

[benitalevesque]

I actually notice in a bunch of period animes they wrap a string and pull. It's really smart
