Valerie Peoples is my eyebrow guru. She can take the most basic untamed brows, and turn them into…read moresleek, sophisticated works of art. I've been coming to Valerie for at least 6 years now, and there's no one else I would trust my eyebrows to. Valerie was trained by Anastasia Beverly Hills, which is why I began going to her (I was previously driving over an hour just to get my brows done at an Anastasia salon), and I've continued coming to her for the last few years because of the amazing job she does. She used to be located at a high end local tanning salon, but since Fall 2016 has been operating independently in her own spot in downtown Center City Philadelphia. It is a bit pricer ($30) than just getting your eyebrows done at your local nail salon, but I promise you it is so worth it! Your eyebrows are shaped in proportion to your eyes & nose, all while relaxing on a salon table. Valerie even uses a magnifier to ensure she does a precise job. You can pay via cash or credit. She also does eyebrow tinting ($30), which I plan on trying my next visit! My recommendation is to give her a try, and if you've never had your brows actually 'shaped' before, grow them out for a month or two before coming. You will thank me later!

I can't even begin to express how grateful I am that I connected with such a talented, beautiful,…read moreand kind soul. I had been growing my eyebrows out for 2+ months after I had a terrible wax experience. It is literally the most arduous task, waiting for your eyebrow hair to grow back. I felt like Chewbacca. This is why I researched and researched and read various reviews before deciding to reach out to Valerie. Let me say this, I normally don't write reviews; however, Valerie's talent, accommodation, beautiful craftsmanship, and overall energy absolutely warrant it! I was in Philly for the weekend for a Monday interview and I reached out to Valerie pretty late. Not only did she respond to me quickly, she accommodated me for a day outside of her normal hours. I am so appreciative of the time she took to do my eyebrows and the individual attention I received. Her studio is set up so that it is a truly a individualized and private experience. And a world-class eyebrow experience it was! She crafts your eyebrows specific to your face. It is amazing to be around individuals who are great but also passionate about what they do. It is a contagious and inspiring energy. Needless to say, I got the job. Looking great translates to feeling great. Feeling great leads to a huge confidence booster. Well ladies and gentlemen I have Valerie to thank for giving me confidence to kick but during my interview. Chewbacca who? Amazing eyebrows like what!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Literally that's how I felt after I left Valerie's, and that's the energy that got me the job). Thanks Valerie!!

Extremely frustrating experience with Thread Bar's Washington Square location and their handling of…read moreClassPass. I went in person to schedule a lash lift and tint and specifically told the employee I wanted to use my ClassPass credits. When I asked how to book it through ClassPass, she told me, "Don't worry about it. You don't need to book it on there since we made the appointment here." On the day of my appointment, only one hour beforehand, I received a call saying they couldn't honor it because the Washington Square location doesn't use ClassPass. Five minutes later, they called back and said they would accommodate me. I again made it very clear that I wanted to use ClassPass and was willing to go to whichever location accepted it. They specifically told me to go to Washington Square. After my service, I was then told I couldn't use ClassPass because I hadn't booked through the app--even though the same employee who performed my service was the person who originally told me I didn't need to. Their explanation was that they're "fairly new on ClassPass and still figuring it out." I understand being new to the platform, but their mistake and repeated misinformation should not cost the customer money. I paid for the service, but I won't be returning and will be reporting the experience to ClassPass. If you're going to participate in ClassPass, your staff should understand how it works and honor what customers are told.

Tran was so warm and made sure i was comfortable the whole time. i didn't experience any discomfort during my lash lift (vs at my old place i often experienced burning/tearing) and i even fell asleep for most of the appointment. i rebooked for 6 weeks and can't wait to be back!

I usually have someone else, but I don't recognize this person, I wonder if she's new. I've never been so upset with how my eye eyebrows look at my life. And I am not a picky person. All I asked was for a cleanup. And she took off half of my eyebrow to the point where I look like. I'm raising one eye eyebrow at all times. I made a comment to her that they were extremely uneven and that she took off a lot more than I asked for. And she kept denying that it was fine the way it was. I probably won't come back ever again.

I used their online system to book and pay for the service in advance. The tip was taken via venmo. I booked for any available tech & my tech assigned was Liliya (or Lily). I arrived 15 minutes early and she was already there ready to take me. We talked about a desired color as well as any other specifics. Liliya knew what she was doing, I can tell she has experience. I trusted her with the color choice and shaping & she did an amazing job. Due to pregnancy, my eyebrows thinned out but she was able to return me my original pre-pregnancy shape. She took her time & did not rush. I would come back to see her again. However...without taking any stars off because I did enjoy my first time here. I noticed that one of the techs who was not attending to any client at the time of the arrival was not particularly friendly. I just would like to make a note to the management to pls explain to the employees to be friendly and greet a person when we come in the door. I would take one star off for this, but because everything else was great, I'll leave all 5 stars on!
