The old cliché do not judge a book by its cover holds true with this little place. From the outside appearance it looks nothing spectacular and even on the inside it's very generic. But after trying several threading and waxing saloons that cost three times as much. I would go out of my way any day to go to Dipti's threading salon. They are professional, precise, and spot on when it comes to making your eyebrows look amazing! Where else in the Chicagoland area can you get your lip, eyebrows, and chin waxed and threaded for $15? read more

Despite the cash only place, it's affordable and worth the try. I went on either a Thursday or Friday during my lunch hour and thankfully there weren't any clients when I walked in, so I didn't have to wait. There is pay for parking on the opposite side of Dipti's but since there isn't a lot of patrolling in that area, I didn't pay to park. Threading eyebrows only takes 5 minutes. I shall be returning this Friday! read more

Great eyebrow threading and waxing! You're literally in and out you're done Dipti is great Cash only! Closed on Sundays read more

Dipti is the best! I moved and I tried other salons closer to home but always return to the queen of eyebrows! I have yet to find someone who even compares to her. She has a true talent for bringing out the best shape for your face and she's so fast! Why sit at a salon for triple the price and time for less quality? Highly recommend! read more

Decent eyebrow thread but the environment is gross! The waxing rooms, as others have stated, are disgusting and she definitely double dips and - NO GLOVES are worn. I'm surprised the health dept gives this place a certificate. read more

Dipti will make your eyebrows look AMAZING. I've tried other threading places that are closer to my apartment, but Dipti can do it better than anyone else I've tried. The way she shapes them will totally transform your face. No frills, but there's no need for frills. It's cheap and if there's not line, you're in and out in under 5 minutes. read more

I love dipti's eyebrow skills! I've been going here for a few months now and she's changed my eyebrows. When I first came in I had a lot of sparse areas and missing hairs and now my eyebrows are thick and nicely shaped. I love that she's so quick I'm literally in the salon for under 5 mins and she also does my upper lip. If your eyebrows need help this is the place to visit. Also the price is great you can't beat it! read more

Experienced my first eyebrow threading here. My goodness, it was as everyone said: fast and precise! I was the first person in line when the doors opened. I was in and out in 3 minutes, and there was already an endless stream of customers flooding through the doors. If I had known that eyebrow threaders would make $7 every 3 minutes, I would have become a threader rather than a lawyer. By the way, eyebrow threading hurts. a lot. yes, I am a crybaby. But the results were definitely worth it. read more

I usually get my brows done every 2 weeks, and usually it's by Dipti. She does a great job--fast, cheap, relatively painless. This isn't a glamourous place but I feel more comfortable here anyways. Last time I went, I got out of my car when "Come Together" came on the radio, and I was back in my car while it was STILL ON. That's less than 4 minutes from car door to car door ya'll. They have parking meters but I never bother to pay. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is because when they get busy (and they do--especially Friday afternoons, when I usually go) the quality goes down noticeably. Try to go during 'off peak' hours for the best service. read more

Affordable but a lot more expensive than the threading places on Devon ave. My mom loves this place and is a loyal customer. Based on her recommendation I went and wasn't as pleased with my experience. Firstly the line is way too long after work or on a saturday. Secondly, Dipti thinned my brows way too much and didn't leave in any part of their natural shape. In fact they looked exactly like my mom's brows. Its a good look for her but not for me. So I think dipti only knows one shape and if it works for you great, if not go someplace else. My cousin also tried this place and was charged extra because Dipti removed hair that my cousin specifically asked her not to, but Dipti deemed it necessary. My advice is to try it once cuz its fine for some people just not everyone and maybe go during the daytime when there's no line. I prefer the places on Devon ave. read more

How does this place have so many good reviews?! I left there CRYING! Not understanding how anyone could ever come back to this place or why she was even still open. I came in for a brazilian wax. Never had come in here before, and as I walked in she pointed to a door as she sat watching tv, I suppose telling me to go right in ahead so as to not bother her program. Whatever. I proceeded to walk and she follows me and then tells me, "Take off your clothes, get on your back." The room is dirty, grimy, and not welcoming at all. Why did I continue to stay? I don't know, I wish I could tell myself that. So there bare with a huge life-size paper on me. She opens the door and is about to begin when she forgets something so at that moment, she gets up to go, LEAVES THE DOOR OPEN, with my naked self exposed as some strange guy walks by. WTF. Yeah. I bring it up when she comes back but she takes the laugh it off, not a big deal approach. Not cool. Then the wax. She's rough, makes you hold your legs in the weirdest freaking way, and laughs if it hurts. Tears started to come down my face and to this day, I am not sure if it is because of the actual physical pain or the humiliation this place makes you feel. Nonetheless, I am praying for this to end as soon as possible. Never have I cried for a wax, or felt this way in a salon (if you can even call it that). She ends by saying, "Oh you a baby, stop crying." Ugh, never again. read more

dipti's is a SCENE. picture this: one room. two barbershop-style chairs in the middle. people seated lining the walls holding their handmade "take a number" laminated sheets of construction paper. bollywood music videos playing on the TV in the corner. dipti threading eyebrows while on the phone (at all times). if you're looking for scented candles, fancy waiting rooms, or spa music, this is not the place for you. but if you want a fabulous result for almost no money, go to dipti. best part: it's cheap! $7 for eyebrows. and mine have never looked better. you don't need an appointment, you're in and out quickly, and the result is awesome. fun fact: i picked up my best friend maura from the airport (she lives in kazakhstan - seriously) and she said she needed her eyebrows done, so we went straight from o'hare to dipti's. even with jet lag, lacking sleep, starving, needing a cocktail, maura left dipti's with a big smile on her face -- and beautiful eyebrows. read more

I went in, super timid, for my first brazilian wax ever. No idea what to expect, except maybe a world of pain. What I got was the fastest, most painless, and may I say most exhilarating experience ever. Everyone here is telling the truth when they say she knows what she's doing; she's a master. She was kind, friendly, and extremely professional. I want to tell everyone about it, but that might be awkward because I work with kids. read more

I've never been so badly bruised after a Brazilian wax. Yes I agree that the quicker the process is, the better, but she went too fast and ripped off a hand full of hairs at once. The first time I actually balled my eyes out getting a Brazilian wax. It's burning read more

I am not one to usually write a review unless I am extremely wowed or disappointed. Unfortunately, this time it's for the latter. I've gotten brazillian waxes for the past 15 months in Miami, so this wasn't my first time. Past waxers I've been to peel off the wax in strips when it's cooled. However, this woman poured a bunch of wax on at once and used a paper towel sized cloth to rip off a ton of hairs at once. It was excruciatingly painful because of how many hairs were torn off at once, and she left some hairs behind. The lady insisted on waxing my backside as well, and I had to tell her repeated times that I did not want it. Finally, she told me to put neosporin on the area after if there was burning. The thought of putting that on down there sounds less than appealing. I've never experienced so much pain during and after a wax until now, and I will certainly not be coming back. read more

Whoever threaded my eyebrows was in such a rush that she was pulling the hairs out so quickly that I had to actually stop her because it hurt so badly and ask her to go slower so it wouldn't sting as much. I get my eyebrows threaded all the time at other places and it has never hurt me this bad nor felt like that . She was also sick and kept coughing and clearing her throat as she was threading my eyebrows with the thread in her mouth. Gross! She told me to check my eyebrows in her mirror at the end to see if I liked them & I had all these hairs that still needed to be pulled out but she had already started working on the next client. I ended up going home and plucking. I will never go back. read more

Just called to see if this place does nose waxing and was informed they DO NOT do men waxing. Hmmmm. I'll take my money elsewhere

I love Dipti! I've been going to her for a few months now and she is so fast and good at what she does. I wouldn't trust any other person with my eyebrows..or to do my brazilian The Brazilian wax hurts minimally (don't they all?), but 2 minutes later, I feel great - no pain whatsoever! I made the mistake of going somewhere else just to try it out and it seems like I'm never leaving this place. Can you imagine getting a brazilian wax done in FIVE minutes?! and just for $35? Count me in! Street parking is convenient, and all you need is one quarter! on 10 minutes she's done with my waxing, threading and lip waxing! I would recommend her in my sleep! read more

Cheap and fast (unless there is a tremendously long line, usually on the weekdays after everyone gets out of work). She does a great job on the brows and it's only 7 bucks. The first time will definitely hurt a little because she's going to be pulling out all those hairs, but if you come back every two weeks like she recommends, you barely feel a thing. It seems like all her customers love her as well. Remember to get a number when you walk in! read more

I love Dipiti!! I have been going to her for 7yrs now!! I trust no one else with my face. She is consistently awesome when it comes to shaping the eyebrow!!! My eyebrows are naturally thick and she has managed to keep them full all while giving them a beautiful shape!! Everyone that I have introduce to her continues to come back.. I travel over 30miles to get to her that is how much I love her!! SN: Dipiti is a little rough when it comes to facial waxing I would rather have her assistants do it. read more

I actually look forward to getting my brazilian done. Can you imagine? Ive been coming to her for my brazilian and eyebrows for the past 8 yrs now. She is so quick and efficient I'm basically out of there in 10-15 min. She uses longer strips so its quicker and less pain to endure. read more

I read lots of reviews on yelp and thought, for my brazilian wax needs, Dipti's sounds like a perfect choice. It was! Yes, it's a little spartan and un-spa-like, but I was in and out in under 10 minutes, got a friendly and thorough wax (with no strays, bumps or burns) and only paid $35 plus tip. read more

It is not a nice salon... so if that is what you are looking for then move on. But all I can say is Brazilian wax, eye brows threaded, and an eyebrows dyed. all for under $50 and out of there in 15 minutes. And she is stellar at what she does. read more

My usual place was closed for the season so I tried this place for eyebrow threading. She was incredibly fast, which I thought was nice but she did a very sloppy job. Lots of strays and no trim. I ended up having to clean them up quite a bit when I got home. Not sure what her rush was, I was the only customer but she seemed pretty into the show she was watching when I came in. read more

I look forward to my monthly visit to see Dipti. This little shop is beyond sparse and the blaring television set in the corner is always roaring Hindi movies but what Dipti can do with a spool of thread is incredible and flawless. Just sit in the barber chair and let her do her thing...even if she's chattering on the phone as she does it, your brows will be perfect. read more

LOVE this place!!! Ive been coming to Dipti for 10yrs and love the way she does eyebrows. She is cheap, very quick, and does a great job. I've moved about an hour away now and dont go as often but always try to go when Im in the area. Love Dipti!!!!!!! read more

This was my first visit. Didn't feel welcome but rushed. I only wanted a threading but got a wax instead. She didn't even clean my brows when she was done. I guess she was upset I didn't want to upgrade to dying my brows.. it's only because my hair is already Naturally Black as Night read more

Dipti is by far the best! She threads my eyebrows in less than 5 min and leaves them so fresh and so clean!

$7.00 threading. However, it hurt like hell and i had scars and bruising on my face a day later from it. Uh, no.

No kidding, Dipti knows what she's doing when it comes to threading eyebrows. I get compliments from other cosmotologists on them...."I know you don't get them done with me, but whoever you are seeing, keep it up". One of the least painful threaders I have ever seen as well, and she is fast and CHEAP! $7 gets you fixed.BRING CASH...she is cash only. read more

First time here! Found this place on Yelp and is a hidden gem. Not fancy, no frills, down to business. Dipti's fast, friendly and affordable. Definitely coming back again! read more

Came to get my eyebrows threaded, but got them mostly waxed and touched up with threading. I was looking for a good eyebrow place that didn't involve driving through traffic and finding parking. I'll admit I'm more of a regular at Lakeview Threading. Yelp pointed me to Dipti's as a closer and highly rated threading salon. I came in on a week day since reviews said it gets packed on weekends. There was no wait so I was glad to hop right into the chair. She started off by putting powder on my eyebrows, which I thought was odd but I didn't say anything. Before I knew it, she put wax on between my eyebrows so I rolled with it. She also waxed off some of the bottom as well and touched up with threading lightning fast. Coming in, sitting in the chair, her doing my eyebrows, and paying her took less than 5 mins total. I was in shock how quick it was. Lakeview takes about 8-15 mins generally. I thought the look was pretty good but it wasn't as clean and thorough as Lakeview's (they always take their time and make sure it is exactly what I want even when there is a decent wait). The next day is what turned my 4 star review to a 2 star. I had tiny blisters on the waxed areas. I was really surprised because I have gotten my eyebrows fully waxed several times before and that has NEVER happened. I have very normal skin that is not sensitive by any means. It really needs to be abused to be red and ESPECIALLY blistered. Long story short... Will not be coming back. This is NOT a threading salon. read more

I have been going to Dipti for over 10 years now and she is the only one I let thread my eyebrows.

I have been going to Dipti's for about two years now and don't plan on changing that. I see her for my eyebrows, lip, and bikini waxing and am always satisfied with her care, efficiency, and comfort. She is very fast and efficient and knows what she is doing. The prices are moderate and for the quality wax she uses (Natural Honey wax) it's a good bargain for quality work. Parking is always available in front of her salon and even when it is busy-I am always in and out in less than 15 minutes. I love Dipti!! read more

The edge that Dipti has over others is definitely SPEED. When you're getting hairs ripped out by the roots, every second counts. Other threaders may give you a similar end result, but it will take 4-5x longer. Although there are other ladies working there, insist on Dipti. read more

Dipti is really great at what she does, she listens to you and tells you what to do for better brow. Shes very quick and there's always parking right in front. she does waxes too, Very reasonably priced. read more

Been going to Dipti for many years now for eyebrow threading. Fast in and out and reasonably priced. I've recommended her to many friends over the years. read more

Let's put it this way, Dipti is so good that I drive a 30+ miles to get my eye brows done.

Dipti's the only one I trust with my eyebrows. She's great at what she does. It may sound alarming when she's done in less than 5 minutes, but trust me, she knows what she's doing. And at $7, it can't get any better than that. I typically go during the day, not on weekends though, and there's normally no wait. But I believe it when I hear that it gets superbusy during the weekend. Dipti's also provides many other services such as waxing and facials, but I've never tried it. The prices are definitely a lot cheaper than I've seen at other places. Another plus is convenient street parking out front. Remember, cash only! read more

Ask for Reina! Super friendly, professional and fast. Probably the best brazillian service i've ever gotten.
