Does threading cause ingrown hairs?

That said, over time, frequent threading can cause the hair follicle to stop growing hair (although, some might consider that an upside).

What are the cons of threading?

Cons – Like shaving, threading removes hair only from the surface which means it needs to be repeated regularly (usually monthly).
