Disappointed in this experience and am still in search for my go to threading place in SD! Upon walking in, there were incense burning which was nice. The couch I had a seat on to wait was dirty and uncomfortable. The lady who did my brows was very sweet, however, took a long while to get the job done. When she originally asked if my eyebrows looked OK I let her know the bottoms needed some cleaning up. I understand they want to leave your eyebrows thick, but to me the way mine were left just look sloppy. Pictures are attached so you can formulate your own opinion. If you want them to take off very little hair and leave them almost as they are naturally, this is your place. But don't expect a solid shape up.
Bad experience this time around. The tech left a cut in my brow. When the tech finished the job she directed my attention to the opposite brow and said "there was a problem" and that I could use castor oil to regrow the brow. The brow that she pointed out was fine to me so I disregarded her comment and went about away. The other brow was combed in a way that concealed her mistake so I didn't notice the chunk of hair missing until I got home. So not only did the tech make a mistake, she made an effort to hide her mistake. UPDATE: I went back to address the mistake made. The threader was apologetic however, I noticed the threader sanitized the chair before previous customers but did not clean the chair before it was my turn. I had to ask her if she was going to clean the chair for me as well. She obliged but there's definitely some differential/discriminatory treatment happening at this establishment.
Got my eyebrows done with Jaz and she was great and quick! Will definitely be coming back to get it done again.
I can say this place has talent. Really skilled staff helped me clean up my face. I wish I would have thought to get my ears done as well. There is a big parking it in the back so here is your heads up, if you do park in back watch out for the first step going in you may need to let your eyes adjust it's a drop. Other than that it's perfect this is my first time here but I would come back. Men should keep the face well groomed like hit up the barber once every two weeks and get your brows done, ears etc.
I asked for a cleanup and not only did I come out with this irritation in my skin but I also have the thinnest eyebrows I've ever had. I will never be visiting again. My eyebrow area physically hurts due to this inattention.
I'm new to the city and came here based on the five star reviews. I've been growing out my brows and asked her to keep them thick. What is this brick she shaped on my face?!?! I didn't trust her to fix it. I'll go back to the previous place Aaliyah's brows to have them fixed. Two stars only because the place was clean. It was empty and she was nice and fast.
I have been going here a couple times and was happy with the results. On 3/11 I went in the morning and there was a different employee who had never threaded me before, and my left eyebrow in the arch area was completely butchered. It's partly my fault because I didn't realize until I got home, or else I would have said something in the shop. I had teared up and there were other clients waiting, or else I would have taken a closer look, although only time will fix it when the hair on my arch grows back. I like this place but can't bring myself to go back after getting my eyebrow butchered up during a routine "clean up".
Loma never disappoints. All the girls here are great. Cash is preferred. $14 for eyebrow threading can't go wrong. Mondays and Tuesday are always slowest. Weekends are always crazy. It's on a walk in basis.
Recently got my lashes done by Anu. She uses cluster lashes and they only last about 1-2 weeks. They aren't exactly lash extensions. I wanted to try them out because I was interested in getting extensions, but didn't want to pay the expensive price of them yet. Anu's lashes are about $30 for individual cluster lashes. I think she did a great job and I loved the way they turned out! These lashes are not waterproof. Unfortunately, my eyes didn't like them and kept getting irritated and very watery. I will most likely have to get them taken off ASAP due to this. If you have sensitive eyes, this may not be the option for you. However, they are something fun and new to try before joining the lash extensions club. If you rather have something even more temporary, cluster individual lashes may work for you. You have to make an appointment for lashes because she's typically not there Sundays and Mondays. If you want fills, it requires no appointment and fills are cheap.

I've been going to Blinks since 2016! I love them. Anuja and Jaspreet are my wonderful beauticians and the others are good too. I have tried other threading places and have never been as satisfied as I am with my dream team! Obviously pulling hair out of your flesh is going to hurt.. but the technique that they use and the quickness of their threading make it hurt much less than other shops! Go in and try it out yourself! read more

First time ever getting my lashes done was by the owner here and now i'm obsessed! Anu is so patient with all her clients and makes sure that you are satisfied before you leave the shop. She has also threaded my eyebrows and they were clean and neat with a little thickness how I like. **Lashes are clusters** Everything here is super afordable.. I believe the lashes are $25 and she does refills for $9-$10 depending on the amount needed to be filled. She keeps the shop so clean and the decor is simple yet cute. Love this place! read more

Love Anu! Been coming here since forever, never had complain, but this time I do have to be honest, new old lady (I don't know her name) messed up my eyebrows. I asked for a clean up around the shape, old lady separated them, and uneven them and she was very brutal throughout the whole process and definitely not professional. I had a hair clip on my hair when I sit on the chair, and was about to take it off, and I know for a fact the young lady would of told me or ask me to please take it off, but this old lady take it off herself without even asking me or anything and put it in my purse. The threading was so painful. Expected more since I know there's a young lady that works there and she's always professional and respectful. read more

Update: Still phenomenal service per usual. Just wanted to update saying that I had my lashes done for the first time here. They turned out amazing and aren't expensive. They look extremely natural and the process was quick and precise. Also had my eyebrows done; before & after pictures attached! read more

This was my second time here and I didn't get my threading done by Anu, it was an Indian lady (didn't get her name). She was nice but the end result wasn't that great. I took time to let my brows grow too so that sucked to not have them look as nice as they could have. She left a lot of random stray hairs and said if she took them off my brow would lose its shape. It just looked messy to me and not like the other 'after' pictures on yelp :( Also a lot of the threading was more painful than my first visit. I'd come back, but to see Anu only! read more

I've been going here faithfully since March and I haven't been let down. I parked behind the bldg in the parking lot. They are open Sundays. I gave them a picture of how I wanted them to look. She put aloe on my brows afterwards so I never have any irritation. read more
I am very picky when it comes to my eyebrows. I've been to other places that have huge rave and left disappointed. This place I walked in hoping for the best and that's what I got. Usually threading my eyebrows hurt me so much but the lady was so nice and gentle. She trimmed and kept them to their natural shape. She took her time which is rare when it comes to eyebrow threading!! read more

Found my new threading place! I absolutely loved my eyebrow threading experience. Anu did an amazing job, she did them just as requested. I love them thick and natural and she did just that. She is also clean and careful. I will definitely be coming back. read more
