Went to Athena's for a brow tint and threading with Shanti and very happy with results. The process was quick and efficient. Would recommend! read more

Ok- I waited until I got my nails redone at another salon before I decided to write this review. This review is not for the salon as a whole, but for the nail tech (Nicole) who did my gel mani pedi and ruined my beautiful natural nail because she didn't want to soak off the builder gel from my previous set. I have been getting russian manicures, but my tech moved so I decided to get a gel set while scouting a new manicurist who can reliably do a russian gel mani. I asked for her to soak off my last set and she said it wasn't the kind of gel you can soak off and proceeded to drill and said she couldnt remove all the gel from my last set (which is fine if what she said about the gel was true). She filed my almond shape too narrow-. Anyway I had to pay for a removal anyway so why not give me the soak off i requested- she acted like she was pressed for time (I had an appointment made days in advance)... I wont ever let them touch my nails again. Eventually I soaked off her manicure and I guess the last product was also soak off because I was able to remove it ALL from home on my own. My nails were cracked from over filing. I was so upset because I take pride in the beauty and strength of my natural nail. She may be fine if you aren't particular about your nail health, the skill level of the tech, or customer service. My nails looked OK at generous best. read more

Shanti is my go to girl for wax & brow threading always. She always makes me feel safe with waxing, and gets the job done quick & painlessly as possible. Shanti knows exactly how I like my brows every time & has been so helpful in my brow growing journey! Love this salon & Shanti! read more

To be honest, that was a hot mess. I am usually not so picky but the nail polish was literally at its end and instead of offering a different color or grabbing another bottle of that one, she went for it. It took longer because of this and anyone who paints nails (even just for fun) knows that it will be too thick and dry poorly when it's old nail polish. Two of my nails even though they are dry are already melting off as expected. It would have looked better if I had done it myself and sadly that's not quality at all. I subscribe to Licensed to Glow and went once before for gel, and that was fine (not great or bad, but okay). I would just avoid this one, sorry to say! Wish I had better news read more

There is honestly no one more talented and meticulous than Sweety. I have been going to her for 4 years and she's been godsend. She is so precise, so gentle, and such a perfectionist with her work. Also not to mention we've had such interesting conversations about life while she works. My experience is great and keeps me coming back! I would highly recommend you to try out this place. read more

Shanti does the best job with lash lift and tint. She puts you in a quiet room and I nap every time I get it done. Nowhere else I'll get my eyebrows or lashes done. The place is very clean & relaxing! Can't recommend enough. read more

Shanti is so amazing!!! I've gone to her for years for my waxing and not only is her work impeccable, her sunny and joyful nature makes the experience unforgettable! I recently moved to Florida but come back to the city for the service because no one can compare read more

Only place I trust with my eyebrows! And i feel like they are happy to see me when i come back. I literally live in Brooklyn and still make time to get my brows threaded there. They know what they're doing :) read more

Lashes look great! Andrea was professional and completed the set quickly. Enjoyed my experience at Athena's. My brows were also done there by a different tech! Highly recommended. read more

Go to one of the zillions of places that offer the same services - this place Is awful. I've been here 2x and will never go again. The first time, there was one other customer and several people "working" by chit chatting together. I was told to wait in the waxing room. Every time I checked in timing, I was told "just a few minutes." 20 minutes later, I left. Today, there were no other customers, but again was told to wait. Ten minutes later, I asked how much longer I needed to wait and was told another 15 minutes. I crossed the street and got the services completed before Athena's would have even started. Athena's can't get the fundamentals of customer service right - I can't imagine how incompetent they are at actually doing the services! read more

Best Brazilian Wax I've had thus far in New York. You can't beat their prices, quality of service and availability for walk ins. I don't care where I move in this city I will always make my way to Athena's for threading and waxing. Highly recommended, clean modern environment, friendly staff and great services!! read more

If you need your lashes done pleaseeee go here!!! I love Andrea I've been going here to get my lashes done for about a year now. I have an appointment today lol. From the extreme hospitality to the amazing quality I couldn't love this place anymore than I already do. I also get my waxes done here. Shanti, the lady who does my waxes, is the sweetest person ever and I commend her for dealing with my gut wrenching screams the first time I got a Brazilian. I really love this cozy salon, and it's so cute on the inside as well. And I just wanna give a big thank you to Andre for boosting my confidence. Not only does she do an amazing job (these lashes be lastinggggg) but thank you, Andrea, for providing me a service while giving me your best self :) she also gives me exactly what I want. I'm not too into makeup so I want my lashes to look rather natural and Andrea delivers every time read more

Shanti did an amazing job on my brows!! She was so precise and made them look exactly as I described! Will definitely be back

I've been coming to Athena's for eyebrow threading, facials and massages for several years. Always a pleasure and wonderful service!

Loved how clean and bright this studio is. They always have someone available for threading and the prices are very fair. I'm new to NYC and so glad I found this place in my neighborhood :) read more

Gotten my eyebrows threaded here multiple times, they've always done a great job! I've been able to do walk ins and be seen relatively quickly. The service is quick and always Looks good! Definitely a gem in the area! read more

BEST place for lash lift and threading!!! so happy with everything! shanti was the best so nice and gentle. can't wait to come back!

Clean space with fair prices, and fast, quality service. Appointments are organized and I didn't have to wait

First time getting a full body wax. Shawti carried me through what could've been a life-threatening experience. Game-changing service. Wouldn't do it with anyone else but her. Earned a forever customer. read more

Loved my experience here!! Great service and calm vibe. Went to Athena to have lash lift and ended up deciding to come back for a bunch of other services read more

Thank you for being open during the pandemic! This place is so great and so convenient from where I work. The past few times I was here, Sweetie did my eyebrows. She knows exactly what to do with my eyebrows even if all I say is 'clean up'. She keeps my eyebrows neat and thick! Also an amazing, calming ambiance and they provide tons of other services like facials and wax. I will definitely come back! read more

I got my 3 services done yesterday: eyebrow and lip threading and then underarm wax and I really enjoyed my experience here. The atmosphere was calming and clean. Sweetie was the name of the employee that helped me out and she lives up to the name. Not only was the service personable and friendly, she did exactly what I asked. If you're like me, the pandemic got you thinking "eh who's going to see me anyway?", but don't let the pandemic stop you from doing things for yourself. I highly recommend this business to anyone looking for trustworthy excellent service and for self care! read more

Loved my experience! Mayra was so sweet and did an amazing job on my nails. I've gotten so many compliments already! read more

A friend of mine got her lashes done here and convinced me to try it. Now, I cannot stop getting compliments on my lashes!!! People are always asking me if these are my lashes, because they really look so natural. I don't do the overfilled caterpillar look, so if that what you're into, then I can't tell you how those work out from Athena's team. But if you like a natural look, THIS is the place. And can I talk about how calm and relaxing it is. Laying down on their table always puts me to sleep. I wake up an hour later and voila! It's like I've had a facelift. I look forward to my appt every 3 weeks. Lemme go book now read more

Shanti always takes the best care of me!! She has been doing my lift & tint for a while now & my lashes always come out looking perfect & literally last almost 8 weeks. (That includes multiple beach trips!) She is so sweet & always remembers to ask about my sisters too, which is just so thoughtful. You can tell she truly values loyalty in her customers & always gives me such good advice about what services would be best for my skin/lashes/brows & that's why I keep going back to her. She will never steer me wrong! And that's why I highly recommend requesting Shanti for your next service. read more

I walked in since I was in the neighborhood. The cleanliness of the shop right away caught my attention. I was very impressed with how my eyebrows turned out. I am always hesitant when it comes to grooming my brows because I like to do them myself. But Sweety did a wonderful job. I asked for a very full and natural cleaned up look and it was perfectly delivered. Sweety informed me where she would take off hair next to ensure I liked the outcome. I like to use the word perfect lightly, but they were just that, exactly how I expected and wanted. I've done threading before and in my past experiences it has always been quite painful but Sweety was very delicate and the threading was almost painless compared to other times from other establishments. I will totally recommend them and they were absolutely worth the trip from Brooklyn. Customer service was also great. Very kind and attentive. I also saw they had a great price for a Brazilian! $45. Next time. read more

Mayra is AMAZING. Not only is she very polite, but does the best gel nails. They last a while too! Highly recommend. read more

Athena's Beauty - Gel manicure - Eyelash Service Near Me - New York, New York

0 stars if I could give it. Gave my appointment away to someone else because I had a similar name with someone so they thought we were the same person without confirming with me even though they had my info. Will not be coming back especially when no one apologized for wasting my time & thought it was okay to be racist. read more

My first visit I was disappointed with the outcome of my full set. Because the place was beautiful clean and the customer service was impeccable, I decided to give it a second chance. My last technician was Andrea. Andrea was professional she gave me a consultation went over what exactly I was looking for the length and style and that is exactly what Andrea gave me. Andrea was also fast which I greatly appreciate it because my last experience it took way too long way too long. I will definitely come back and I will always request for Andrea. Andrea does beautiful work she is professional and she is fat and she is courteous. Thank you for making my second experience a pleasant one. read more

I never leave reviews, but I feel morally obligated to warn other women. Do not get your lashes done here. I came home with lashes glued to my eyelid skin and multiple lashes glued and clumped together. The worker also didn't wash my lashes before starting and did not isolate lashes. She also had me open my eyes for part of the process as she added lashes. This is dangerous and could blind someone. I told the woman they were stuck together and on my skin and she said that is how they do it and this is normal. This is a major red flag. Any professional lash technician would know. This is unhygienic, unprofessional, and unsafe. There is risk for legal and medical problem for the business. I really should have stopped in the middle and said something more. The lady working on me other than that was very nice and gentle, I just think they need better training. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Athena's. My lash extensions are always perfect and Prince always does his best to fit me into the schedule, even if it's last minute. Prices and quality can't be beat! Highly recommend! read more

I usually never write reviews, but I had to for the sake of other people. I give 1 star for them being able to schedule me within short notice. Other than that, it was the worst experience ever! I went in to get lash extension removal. The solution got in to my eye and she said it was because my eyes were open, but I let her know before that the solution was already in my eye. She had to physically take me to the sink to rinse off my lashes. I've gotten my lashes removed at other salons before and the process is so much different and less painful. read more

So I actually never made it to Athena's beauty but I still needed to write them an amazing review given the customer service. I am about to go to Costa Rica in a few days, and I cannot get to my regular lash technician. I sent out an inquiries to multiple salons and only Athena's got back to me promptly saying that they would be open to doing a lash fill. I find it interesting that a lot of places don't do lash fills if the Lashes weren't originally installed by them. Athena's had no issues moving around appointments in order to take me in. Athena's responded to me promptly and were polite and courteous. I will properly make my way to this place and circle back with a proper review. For now that get an A in my book. read more

Been hair for a herbal facial. I had a great time. Massage was excellent and I felt really pampered being here. The staff was so attentive and I felt comfortable here. Definitely a place to come back. read more

BEST eyebrow tint and thread I've ever had. Shanti is not only amazing but also very kind and makes every visit great. This is the go to spot for myself and now many of my friends. So lucky to have found Shanti! Every service has impressed me. read more

I love this place! I went for the first time to get a lash lift and tint and Shanti made me look so beautiful and did such a good job explaining aftercare, so it lasted almost 2 months. Shanti is also the only person I trust to thread my eyebrows in all of NYC. Athena's is super clean and everyone there is really friendly and professional. read more

I frequently receive facials at other New York salons but today's facial with Shanti in the East Village was the best facial I have ever experienced. She's amazing and the room was relaxing and comfortable -- just the right temperature. I will definitely be back and recommend to all my new neighbors in the my building. Thank you, read more

I went to have my eyelashes dyed and I had to walk to a sink with my eyes closed and wash off the dye myself. It went into my eyes and stung so much. Their is not normal practice, do not go to get this procedure done. read more

I got a 60 minute seaweed facial given by Kelly who was super sweet. She constantly made sure I was comfortable and that my needs were being met. I definitely will be visiting again soon. read more

I just have to start by saying WOW!! this place is absolutely amazing! Let's start with how clean it is, especially during a pandemic.. trying to get myself back to feeling like myself and wanting to get pampered, I was nervous about coming in not knowing what to expect but everything was immaculate! The service was even more amazing!! Sweety was so nice and kind! She was gentile and made sure to keep her mask on at all times. The nice young gentleman in the front named prince was very warming and inviting! Athena's beauty is absolutely a gem! Will definitely be back soon :) read more
