Aman was the one who did my eyebrows. While leaning back on the chair, I was quite nervous since my previous threading experience was less than pleasant. As she worked on my eyebrows, I kept waiting to feel the pain but before I knew it she was done. Pain free! She was fast and efficient. My eyebrows ended up a little thinner than I like, but I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem if I let her know next time. The only negative thing I have to say is that she left the hairs that were pulled off all over my face instead of brushing them off. Thanks yelp for helping me find my new eyebrow place!

Wow!!! Came here to get my brows threaded by Preet and it wasn't so bad. She was very nice, friendly, quick and pleasant. My brows look cleaner and nicely shaped. I really like my "after" brows. It opens up my eyes. Btw, I heard she's very "popular," so call and make an appointment. The sign does say walk-ins welcome, but she's pretty booked. Oh, getting my brows threaded only cost $8+tip and it took a few minutes.. read more

See all

I get my hair colored at a different salon but sometimes I need to get a quick inexpensive trim. I found this place through yelp and after some positive reviews decided to take a chance. I was confused at first because I called in and made my appt but when I arrived at the location it was an eyebrow threading salon. I called to make sure and it turns out that Tina cuts hair inside that salon. She took care of me very quickly and did a great job. I am always terrified when someone new cuts my hair but my hair felt so much healthier and was nicely styled afterwards. Thanks Tina! read more

Stay away from this place! I was in desperate need of an eyebrow threading I had planned to go to Beauty by Thread at Arden but I was in the EG area this place had 4 stars... When I walked in the salon was full. A wedding party was getting made up. Nobody greeted me. I was not acknowledged at all. That was a hint. I asked a fellow patron if we sign in or anything and she said no. I sat and waited my turn. After about 30 minutes I was up. I have been growing my brows because they seemed to be getting on the thin side. I explained this to the young lady and sat back. I have been getting threaded exclusively for about 5 years now and it only hurt the very 1st time until today. She was so rough it was very painful I was bleeding when she was done! It was so fast and my face was swollen. When she was done there was no thank yous. No acknowledgment that I was bleeding or swollen. This may have been the unfriendliest group of people I have encountered. Because my face was so swollen I didn't notice until I got home my eyebrows were seriously jacked up! One is significantly thicker and the arches are way off. I wanted twins but ended up with sisters and I'm livid! There were also random stray hairs left too. Now I have to regrow my brows again. And the worst part worse than the jacked eyebrows was the rude people that work there. I'm kicking myself for even staying when I wasn't acknowledged to begin with and living a decent tip for a crappy job and service. I went to Beauty by Thread a few days later to see if they could fix my brows. They asked me what happened and I said Preet in EG. All 3 ladies gave a knowing glance said "ooh I see" and started speaking in their language. I could tell it wasn't good. Seriously STAY AWAY from this place unless you want to be treated like you're beneath them, leave with battle wounds, and jacked up uneven brows! They deserve negative stars. I could not fathom how they have 4 1/2 stars! read more

I've never been interested in threading due to the fact that they do not have to be licensed to thread so I've always gotten my brows waxed instead. I ran into a girl at a party with perfect brows and she mentioned that she got them threaded here so of course I HAD to check it out. I walked in with no appointment and did not have to wait. Aman took me right away and began threading. She cleaned them up and did not leave a single stray! I was very happy with the outcome aside from the fact that my eyebrows are a bit thinner than I would like them to be. I have a low pain tolerance but the threading did not bother me too much...it felt more like a pinch in sensitive areas. I was in and out in no more than 10 minutes and it only costs $9. I'm sold! read more

This review is for the threading lady in the back, not the salon. Went there for full face threading. The girl that does it locates in the back of the salon. When I got there, she was helping another customer. When I was leaving, there was a line waiting for her! She did a great job. Note: she only take cash or check. No credit card read more

I used to get my eyebrows waxed from a nearby nail salon, and one day I went and the lady made my eyebrows so thin I wanted to cry my eyes out! So I was recommended this place and I have to say Preet and her sister, Aman, are fabulous! They are so kind! I always leave the place feeling confident of my eyebrows! They listen to you on how you want them, I tell them i'm growing them out and to keep them as thick as possible, and they do! I get so many compliments on them! I love this place, and refuse to go anywhere else to get my eyebrows done! read more

I can't believe I've never visited here before. I'm sad I don't live closer so that I can come here every month. I had my brows and lip threaded. At first I thought she said it was $15, but she charged me $9, because my brows were pretty much shaped already. I only really wanted my lip done, but I wanted to see what all the Yelp hype was about. I don't know who did me, but she did a great job. My one brow is rounded and I use pencil/wax, etc. to try and arch it, but always fail. She managed to give me a nice point! (And I didn't even ask!) Anyways, can I say $9 for lip and brow??? Or even $15 is not a bad price. Two weeks before I was at Roseville Galleria and paid like $35 for a brow/lip thread there and didn't leave impressed. I was impressed with this place and would definitely go back. read more

First time there and the threading lady was really nice and generous to ask what I would like to do with my eyebrows. Came out satisfied! I'm the kind of person that really cares for my eyebrows and hair, and I've been trying to find a place to love. This is my new place for my eyebrows. No more waxing! :) read more

If you're looking for Vickey, she moved to a new location, Neat Cuts down the ways (other side of 24-Hr Fitness). Business hours Mon-Sat 9AM-7PM, she's there Mon-Sat 9AM-6:30PM, off Sundays. Reach her directly at (916) 230-2129. read more

13 minutes to a hairless face - Wow! This was my first threading ever. I relied on my fellow yelpers to give me good recommendations and boy did you ever. Preet was sweet (!!); fast, and fairly pain free. I will admit there was "sensation" like a soft snapping rubber band rolling over my skin. But it sure beats the ripping and burning from a wax and the resulting terrible breakouts. The price was spot on at $15 for brows and lipI'll follow up in a few days to let you know about regrowth.\ Will give 5 stars when I see the results of their just begun remodel. read more

I have to say that ever since I got started with eyebrow threading I vowed to never return to getting my eyebrows waxed ever again. It's so much better for your skin and you don't have to worry about getting burned, especially if you're on any kind of acne medication. It's so nice to finally find a good eyebrow threading lady here in the Sac/Elk Grove area. Preet is very nice & great at what she does. She rents out a space from the Hair Obsession salon. She only takes cash or check ... and you can't beat her price ... for eyebrow & upper lip threading ... it only cost me $ 15 ... that's a great deal :) Anyways, she's open 6 days a week except on Tuesdays. Oh and here's her direct number in case any of you are interested in trying her out ... 916-583-0501. She takes walk ins also but when I went there she was pretty busy ... I waited about 15 minutes ... but it was well worth it! read more

Back in November, my older brother got married. I was one of the Bride's maids and had gone with them and the bride to get our hair and make-up done at a salon up in Galt. I was looking for the classic Audrey Hepburn up-do. After the woman spent quite a bit of time teasing and hair spraying, I ended up with with something reminiscent of Amy Winehouse beehive. I was devastated, but felt too guilty to make the woman do it over agin. I went to Hair Obsession to meet up with my mother and grandmother who were getting their hair done. I was in tears at what my hair looked like and I knew there was nothing I could do to fix it. Kathy readily offered to fix my hair for me. I didn't care what it looked like at this point, I just wanted it to look good. Not only did Kathy fix my hair, but it come out looking BEAUTIFUL. She even went to the point of styling my fringe perfectly when the other woman refused to touch it. I couldn't thank Kathy enough for everything that she had done for me. I won't see another stylist as long as I can help it. read more

I called in for an appointment and the woman told me an appointment wasn't needed. I requested for my brows and forehead to be threaded. She did a pretty decent job on my brows, but pulled on some of my baby hairs along my hair line. My eyebrows could've been trimmed shorter. 2 stars because I'm keen on sanitation and nothing was placed on the neck area before I laid back on the chair. She didn't wash or sanitize her hands before starting on me. read more

I'm a guy, and usually pretty easy to please when it comes to haircuts. Came in on a Friday afternoon. They seemed really busy, but I was seated immediately. Told the stylist I wanted to trim the sides, but preserve overall length. Maybe I should have made myself a little more clear because that is not what I got... about 2 inches taken off the top! Anyways, I think it came out looking good, just not exactly what I was looking for... The staff was friendly, the price was decent ($12 for men), and service was fast. read more

Been getting my eye brows threaded here since 2009. I really love lOVE PREET! She does an amazing job with my brows,,,Perfect, and she's sooo nice! why 4 stars, well i went to someone else and not up to par ;/ read more

This review applies to Preet, who did my eyebrows Service: friendly, well-mannered, quick Quality of work: perfect, I haven't seen better work for the price Price: excellent prices, it cost me only 9$ to get my eyebrows threaded read more

I came here for the eyebrow threading. Preet did it she is the only one that does it here she rents her own little room. She is very good and fast, I love my eyebrows I will definitely come back. Only $9 give her a try. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND read more

From the previous time I have been here, I think they remodeled or rearranged the place a bit but I like it! It looks new and improved and spacious for stylists and customers to walk in and out of. I usually come here for my eyebrows and I've experience 3 different stylists. Preet is my usual now. She is AMAZING beyond words. Her technique and quickness is all I need for a quick eyebrow and stache threading. read more

okay okay okay i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this place i always waxed growing up but then i met preet and i fell in love with threading and the comfort/convenience. I've been going to her for more than 3 years. preet is an amazing business owner and knows exactly what she is doing :) first off she has a very well put staff and knows how to treat her clients. her place looks amazing and worked very hard for what she has along with aman. they are both very talented in eyebrows and hair and are there to cater to your needs. making you feel comfortable and noticed from the very first second you enter the door. so please dont think twice about going ladies and men :) take care read more

My first time here, what a horrible place. I should have stuck with beauty by the thread at the mall. The bigger and taller Indian girl got done with her customer and then gets on her cell phone when she knows I'm the only customer waiting. There's no sign-in procedure so I'm thinking oh she'll probably make a quick call - no 10 mins later she's still on her phone. Her co-worker the petite, smaller Indian girl keeps looking up cause she knows her co-worker is being rude. And this is when I knew the bigger Indian girl was totally stalling as soon as a white lady enters she hangs up, looks at me with a fake smile and asks what am I here for? Wow, all it took was a white lady to come in geez! Asians go on yelp too ya know?! Anyways she did a horrible job with my brows. She missed several small hairs and then she blames me that I didnt pull my lids hard enough ahem, excuse you your too damn lazy to do your job. Lame, i made her fix it and after the 2nd time I just gave up, she was hopeless. I told myself to never return - unless I returned with a white friend. I totally regret giving her a tip. (sigh) read more

Preet is a terrible business woman. The store is never opened when it is meant to be nor is the ATM machine working. She's extremely unprofessional, dishing dirt left and right. I'm a mother of two, a business woman myself and have NO desire (nor the time) to hear her complain about her day-to-day clients. Another thing I don't understand, she has a sign up that says "Walk-ins are welcomed" but when you walk-in without an appointment she's awfully rude and almost annoyed that you didn't call ahead. She isn't the best at what she does, she's just convenient. Do not settle. read more

Preet is personable however is not professional. I have experienced long waits (despite making appointments a week in advance), her having conversations instead of focusing on my brows, as well as her taking sporadic breaks whenever she feels like it (notwithstanding a full waiting room). When she is in a hurry, she is not as attentive. My eyebrows have fallen victim to her sloppy work ethic. I have been a regular customer for the past four years, but after a litany of subpar experiences I decided to move on to Garara Palace, where I have received nothing but excellent service. I recommend you give Giri a chance. You won't regret it! read more

Now, I only go to this place for eyebrow threading. The girl the does it is the very best! I don't believe she's a hairstylist here because she works in her own little room and has her own business card. Anyway, I usually called the day of to make an appointment and she always had time for me. Not only was she fast but also very efficient. I wish I could have taken her with me when I moved to the Bay Area! I highly recommend her if you're looking for an awesome eyebrow threader! By the way, she doesn't work on Tuesdays. read more

I have been trying to find someone who does a good job threading/waxing, and I finally did! I have been to ALOT of salons for eyebrow threading and body waxing, and most dont meet my expectations. Preet, the lady who does the hair removal is great. The salon itself isnt anything to brag about ( a small, simple salon in the Raley's shopping center) but worth going into. Pricing is also great. I did my full face and am very satisfied. I will go back to her again to try body waxing. Edit: Preet has expanded her salon so that she is no longer in the back room. She now has the entire salon for threading and she has hired a few more ladies to help her. She also remodeled the salon and looks great! I really love this place and try and make the drive down to Elk Grove whenever I can. (btw, I still havent done body waxing there, but the facial threading is the best) Note of Advice: Make an appointment because she fills up fast read more

Took my little sister here for threading after reading all the positive reviews. One star because she came out disappointed. They were uneven, this is unacceptable. I would understand too thin or too thick, but you expect them to look symmetrical. By the way, not sure the name of the lady who helped her. She appeared to be of Indian descent and in her 20's (we made an appointment with Preet, but when we asked about our appointment she simply answered "I'll take care of you" and didn't bother introducing herself.) read more

First of all, I read all the reviews and it said eyebrow threading does not hurt. Honestly, if it's your first time, it hurts! I went on my 21st birthday to get my eyebrows threaded for the first time of my life. I thought it was painless like how everyone said, but oh hell no. It pinches and it hurts. So first timers, beware of the pain! Overall she was nice and professional. I liked it and she did a good job. read more

I can't even remember how long I've been going here to get my brows threaded, but one thing for sure is that I'll never go anywhere else. I love love Aman. She's super sweet and is a talented person. Not only is she always on point with my brows, but she always advises and listen to what I have to say. I promise if you try this place you won't be disappointed! read more

I recently became a fan of eyebrow threading. It doesn't hurt and you don't get any red bumps after. It's best thing ever. It's only $9 and you're in and out of there within 5-10 mins. The only complaint I have is I wished they have a brush to wipe the hairs off your face after they are treaded. read more

I've seen a lot of threaders in a lot of cities (NY, Berkeley, Boston) the past 12 years I've been getting full face threading done, and after seeing Preet and Aman I won't go anywhere else. The prices are SO great for the quality of work they do. I worry about my brows getting thin as I'm getting a little older, but they never have thinned them out. I've been seeing Preet for the past couple years maybe, and her sister Aman sometimes takes care of me. Both do a great job, I just recommend making an appointment if it's a weekend day especially. They are popular for a reason. read more

I finally found the time to drag myself to the salon after months of overdue appointments. My hair was really damaged: dull, dry, and full of countless split-ends. Kathy worked her magic and I left with my hair flowing from side to side. My bangs became back to life again, and the layers framed my face perfectly! She was also very nice and made good conversation. read more

Went there for the 1st time today to get my eyebrows thread & I am actually impressed of the service. Preet really did an awesome job on my eyebrows. Will definitely come back here again. I highly recommend this place :) read more

Came here tonight with my fiancé to get our brows done last minute. Our engagement photo shoot is tomorrow, and when I informed the woman of this, she paid extra attention to my brows. It was cheap, fast, and I would come again. My fiancée's brows have never looked better. read more

Top notch! Excellent face threading and customer service. I have had face threading done in LA and been cut. At Hair Obsessions, nothing of the sort and I walked out without a mark. And, I am an older person and was treated with the utmost respect. Do give this salon a chance. They know their business and it is worth every penny. Mari Jo read more

I only come here to get my eyebrows threaded and sometimes it gets a bit crowded. But I never had to wait more then five minutes. I've had several different ladies do my eyebrows and they're all quick and good at what they do. And I always feel better when I leave and my eyebrows look AMAZING. So I'll leave it to the pro's or else I will mess them up and over tweeze and have to draw them in. Which is not pleasant at all... HAha read more

I only come in for facial/eyebrow threading and I love Preet!! She has a hectic schedule and the salon do not operate on Tuesday for whatever reason. I tried to squeeze in during prom season and she made it possible. She completes her job quickly with terrific results. Been there twice both for facial threading. It hurts like hell but she tries to be as gently as possible. She's very friendly and talks to you as if you've been her friend for years. I went there last time and thought that my eyebrow was done a little too thin, but i was still getting compliments. Great Job!! read more

This review is for Preet. She is amazing! I found out about her from these reviews and I am happy I did. She is a master of her work, I'm usually in and out in about 6-7 minutes. For less than $10, you get the best, and healthiest, eyebrows possible! Thank you Preet. read more

While it is wheelchair accessible (you can get through the front door) if you want to actually get something done bring an assistant to help hold your head or to put you on a chair. Very friendly staff and patrons (thanks Monica for holding my head!). Quick and eyebrows and upper lip is $ 15. I've been back 3 times already. I'm going back this week again. I love this place. Just have to remember my assistant to hold my head since I can't get into the chairs lol read more

I've been getting my hair cut by Tina for years and she always does such a great job! I get personalized treatment when I'm there. I have really thick and unruly hair which grows unevenly but she always does a good job with layering and thinning it out so that it looks great and is manageable!! She is very thorough in ensuring all of my layers are even and very attentive to the length I want to maintain! She's the best! She also cuts hair for my whole family - my brother used to get his hair cut Korean style which is not easy to do but now he's grown out of that and Tina still gets his cut perfect every time!! And she's great with my sister's short hair! She's very patient and attentive and extremely thorough!! read more

Had Tina cut my hair. She is the best stylist ever!! I will follow her where ever she works!!
