Eyebrows -- thread one's eyebrows

Hi

Do these collocations work fine?

Her perfectly-threaded eyebrows
Do you thread your eyebrows?
She has her eyebrows threaded every week.
His eyebrows were rough and unthreaded??

Thanks,

Tom

PS: I know unthreaded doesn't exist. What would be the right choice.

In my country, "thread on'e eyebrows" or "have threaded eyebrows" is a very common collocation. But then, we are no native speakers.

Like MrM, I had never heard of this until I read your post.

The two sentences I have coloured red appear to be OK. You'll have to wait for a threader to comment on t

I don't thread my eyebrows; I knit them.
