It's hard to find someone who does a perfect job on your eyebrows. I've been getting my eyebrows threaded for ten years and have had some bad experiences and some awesome ones. I saw Diba and she did a great job. My left eyebrow is always thinner than my right eyebrow and when I leave the salon, it stands out more. She evened my eyebrows out and didn't make them too thin! Will be going back to her often read more

I'm so disappointed in whoever they had in there on Friday August 14. I put emphasis on leaving my eyebrows thick and only cleaning up my brows. She completely thinned out my eyebrows and ruined them. She did not listen to anything I said and I HATE how my eyebrows look and now will have to depend on makeup to make them look decent. Shame. I am reaching out to get a refund and make a complaint. This is ridiculous. Don't come here. They are no longer dependable - I will be looking for a new shop read more

I usually go to the Arlington location, but it hasn't been open since pre-covid. I never get a straightforward answer when I ask if they'll be opening the Arlington location again, but for now one can visit the Alexandria salon. The salon is always fairly clean, and they use a different piece of plastic to over the seat used to do one's eyebrows after each person's session. value: current price for eyebrow threading is $12. There is no line to add a tip, so be sure to bring cash if you want to tip. Parking: both locations do not have a parking lot, so be prepared to pay for parking unless it is Sunday. I always ask for just a 'simple clean up' of my eyebrows meaning I don't want a new arch, thinner brows, etc. However, they seem to slightly make them thinner sometimes which is the reason for the 3 stars. I continue to return because I still prefer threading over waxed eyebrows and I cannot find a new place to try other than the women in the middle of Pentagon City Mall. read more

Stopped by last minute since I was getting a facial nearby and am so pleasantly surprised. Threading was quite fast, considering I hadn't done anything to my brows in a while, so there was work to be done. The results were perfect. She's a pro and lovely. read more

If you really want your eyebrows to stay a certain level of thickness if advise you keep stopping and checking or tell them exactly what you want taken out. I thought I was pretty clear and said please just clean the strays, I could feel her pulling more out and I kept telling her please keep it as thick as possible, just the strays. When i saw they were skinny, I said oh it's a bit skinner than I wanted, I just wanted it cleaned. Knowing I couldn't do anything at this point obviously. I wasn't angry at her, I wasn't rude, I just made the statement but she didn't even respond. Not one word. Just charged me and walked over to the next customer. I dunno. I don't ever write non 5star reviews but I'm pretty put off by this experience. read more

She did such a good job and was very gentle! Definitely recommend going if you're thinking about it.

I have never had an issue at this place, matter of fact I love my eyebrows after leaving here, but yesterday I experienced a new woman who did my brows and I'm so upset because they are bad. I wont give up on this place yet but I wont go back to her... read more

DO NOT COME HERE UNLESS YOU DON'T CARE ABOUR YOUR EYEBROWS! DISGUSTING, NO PROPER SANITATION BETWEEN CUSTOMERS (same tools on the different customers... NASTY!). I came in today and requested that the lady keep my thick eyebrows intact, I specifically said NO shape change, JUST a cleanup, and to keep them as THICK as possible!! I literally had gotten my brows done a week and half ago and came just to get the stray hairs taken out. I knew something was wrong when she was getting hairs in between my eyebrows (there's a LINE in my eyebrows now... wtf?) and when she cut down my eyebrows like crazy with the scissors. She was chomping away like crazy, and when I looked up, I was in tears about to cry. I'm livid as to how badly she destroyed my eyebrows. See pics for referral. ***Also, this place doesn't practice proper levels of sanitation. Though they place a plastic cover down on their chairs per client, they don't cover or wipe down the handles (the part that everyone holds or grabs onto). Additionally, they use the SAME brush and scissors on everyone without washing in between!! Sorry, but that's kind of disgusting. Imagine getting someone's eyebrow makeup or lice in your brows / skin through this cross contamination. Ew. I wouldn't recommend this place not even to my worst enemy. I'm going to have to let my eyebrows grow out for another 6 months and hopefully find someone experienced by then. read more

I have come here for years, happily. There's a new staff member who does a nice job but made my eyebrows very thin without my requesting this. As such, I would recommend being very clear about what you're looking for. read more

I've been getting my eyebrows threaded since basically entering this earth from my mother's womb. As with any threading business with rotating technicians, the services here vary depending on who does your eyebrows. I recommend that you go in and ask for want you want specifically (thin, thicker, clean up), and any problems you want corrected. This helps manage expectations. I've noticed often that customers are hesitant to communicate their dissatisfaction, but don't be!!! Check your eyebrows before you leave!!! You see a stray hair they missed? Tell them to get it! I nearly always do and nearly always want something more, and I've never had a problem getting it. So I would recommend this place simply for the fact that they don't rush you and take their time on giving you what you want. But here's the thing, you have to know what you want!!!! Look, another thing is upkeep. Y'all go and tweeze the hell out of your eyebrows and expect things to be all pretty because a lady uses a thread instead of a tweezer. NO. It's not magic. Let it grow, let it grow (*cue Frozen music*) so the technicians can shape better and have more to work with. If you come in with crappy eyebrows, they're only going to be able to do so much. They get busy during peak times (evenings on weekdays in my experience and weekend afternoons) and there's often a 20-30 minute wait since there are only two technicians working at a time. So if you're in a hurry don't go at 4:00 PM on a Friday. read more

They're actually nice... but on two different people. All I needed was a clean up, but she went to town on the left one and it came out significantly thinner than the other one. I used to love this place. I won't be back. read more

Eyebrow Express - Uneven brows - Threading Services Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

Had several visits at this place and I'm often pleased with my brows. However, today I noticed they only use ONE brush on everyone after they're done threading and it's filthy. For sanitary purposes please switch out the brushes in between each client! read more

Literally exactly what it's called is what it is! I was looking for a threading place and was referred here and it was so efficient and I ended up pleased with my eyebrows! Was able to pop in on a work day during my lunch and there was one person being serviced and I was still in and out. Definitely satisfied with my brows and the pricing. It's a pretty no frills place so don't expect any like lux decor but honestly its not needed. Parking is on the street and was easy to find when I went but I suggest downloading the ParkMobile app if you don't have it. read more

Dipa did an amazing job! I I am hella picky with my eyebrows and I can honestly say that I would go back to her even though I live in the district. She's got my service for life read more

This is listed as closed, but they are still OPEN! The location is down further on king street closer to the metro side. New address: 1403 King Street I've been a loyal customer since 2014. Parking can get a little tricky, so I avoid peak hours. You can find plenty of free parking, as long as you are willing to walk a couple of blocks. FYI: This is a threading place. It is painful at first, but you get used to it the more you do it. I'm always satisfied with my brows. Some brow technicians are nicer than others, but all seem to do a great job. Off the top of my head, it's $12 for brows and $6 for upper lip. They take cash tip only, so please plan accordingly! read more

Great job on my eyebrows! I've gone here a few times now. The consistency, professionalism, and not to mention their extremely reasonable prices keep me coming back! read more

I have been threading for over a decade. A good threader is hard to find. The young woman was friendly, efficient and fast. She promptly opened at 11 AM. She shaped by eyebrows just the way I wanted. The price is more than reasonable. I am glad I found this great location so close to home. read more

If you're ever in Old Town and need a place to get your eyebrows done, definitely give this place a try! I've been here a couple of times during my lunch break and was seen immediately both times. The space is small, but clean and just large enough for what it's used for. Both times the jobs were quick, painless, and left my eyebrows looking AMAZING! They finish off the job with rose water (if you choose to), which not only leaves your brows nice and smooth, but also gives you a relaxing smell of roses as you walk away. My only complaint is the price of $12 before tip, but also not unheard of for this area, especially Old Town (I'm just a little spoiled by another place where I've paid $8 for a comparable job). Just be sure to bring cash for your tip, as they are not accepted on credit cards. read more

Eyebrow Express - Perfectly groomed brows, no makeup needed. Couldn't be happier! - Threading Services Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

I was on a 9 day vacation out in the east coast. Alexandria was one of our last stops. By then my eyebrows were like a jungle. I kept telling my bf I wanted to get them waxed. He didn't really get it. As we were walking down King Street, he of all people, saw the sign outside guiding patrons upstairs into the shop. I walked up and was immediately put into the chair. She did my eyebrows and lips with great ease. It was painless and it felt as if she was pulling all of the hair out. It was great. Best part was she took credit/atm cards. Awesome for those stumbling in from the street. I wish I had a place this quick and easy where I live. Recommend! read more

Absolutely horrible experience. One of the girls did my eyebrows and they came out uneven. I went back to get The eyebrow that was uneven redone and she made it so thin that not only did it remain uneven it looked pencil drawn in. Despite telling her I didn't want thin eyebrows when I first came in. She wouldn't admit they were uneven and thin now and never apologized. I have never been treated so badly at any eyebrow place, I visited this place because of the good reviews. Stay away from this place if you want to be treated with respect. I wouldn't have felt so bad like I did if she at least apologized. read more

My first time threading was last month and she was so nice and explained everything to expect. My second visit today was quick and just as nice. Thank you for becoming my new go to place!!! read more

Great efficient service! Got me in and out of the salon within 10 min and I could recognize my eyebrows once again!!

I had my eyebrows done here last Saturday while traveling. And today my husband asked "who did your eyebrows...they look good?" And so I have to give you 5 stars and write this review. I'll be back and will plan my trips around my ability to get my eyebrows done here. The shape and thickness is a perfect complement to my natural brow line. Thanks a bunch!!! read more

Nice spot to get your brows done. Convenient location. Nice that you can just walk in and even if they are busy it doesn't take long. Men and Women welcome. Price is very reasonable for the area. Been here probably 20 times between the old location and new spot and I've always had a great experience! read more

This is the second time I've been here. I love it. The rooms are bright pink, the ladies know what they're doing and you're in and out. And only 12$!!!! But make sure if you wanna tip you bring cash because it's not an option to put on your card read more

In 10 years I have never seen my eyebrows look this bad. All I wanted was a clean up and she completely reshaped! Now I have to triangles on my face. And she over plucked the corner of one so now they are not even! Whatever you do, don't go on a Tuesday Afternoon. Whoever is working there does not know what she is doing. And I have very easy eyebrows to work with, I don't know why she would even think to reshape them. NEVER AGAIN! Notice how the eyebrow on the left is butchered from the corner. It takes me two months to completely regrow them, so thanks a lot! read more

Eyebrow Express - Uneven, the one on the left is butchered! Plus they look like triangles! - Threading Services Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

This place is terrible. Do not go here. I will attach a picture of what my eyebrows looked like after they were done. The lady made them completely uneven, she took an un proportionate chunk of out of one of my eyebrows. I understand that it was then work of one employee, but her bad work reflects on the entire organization. read more

Eyebrow Express - Threading Services Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

She was very nice. The ambience was nice with the relaxing background music. To be frank, I am extremely picky about my eyebrows bc they are naturally thick. I told her, at very the least please don't do them too thin. And she listened to that, but I honestly would not go back. Lol. read more

This place is okay but I wouldn't drive out of my way for it. When I looked in the mirror it didn't look bad but when I got home I looked closer and as you can see with the pictures I posted the lines aren't clean and my hairs are scraggly. I was kind of disappointed because I had spent my money on a service that I didn't really get. I got there at the opening time so I guess that's why my experience turned out the way it did. However I do have to say that the lady who did my eyebrows was really sweet. It's also a nice location. read more

Requested only clean-up and not to thin eyebrows. Left with thinned eyebrows, different shapes, and with missing hair in 1 brow. Told me to return in 2 weeks. read more

The service is quick and professional. My eyebrows are always even and they leave them as thick as possible (that's my preference). I go to both women who work here and they both do an excellent job. read more

Great prices and quick service. It's nothing fancy, but that's why I go there. I just want to get in, have my brows cleaned up, and get out (without spending $20). This is why I go here. read more

My go-to spot! They provide excellent service and they are very quick. They provide other services but I only need my eyebrows threaded. The cost is only $12. They accept credit cards, but you must have cash if you like to tip. read more

Brow technicians super friendly and th service was great! I get my brows threaded frequently and this has to be the gentlest place ever. She took her time and was very light handed on my brows/skin. I recommend. I plan to be back for next threading session. read more

I'm so glad to have found pretty eyebrows. I'm really picky when it comes to my eyebrows and only get it threaded. I've been looking for somewhere near my new home in Brandywine, MD and while this location is in Alexandria it is definitely worth the drive. I threaded my entire face which was 40.00- pain free and done to perfection. No conversation, but was still professional and pleasant. Note: the location is on the busy King street in Old town. I really had to look hard for the sign as it located upstairs. There is a paid parking lot in the back of the bldg. read more

Super quick and efficient. Staff was extremely friendly. Will come back for all of our threading needs!

I'm new to the area and have been desperate to find somewhere to get my eyebrows done locally so I decided to give this place a try. The setup is different. It's just a door on the outside and you walk up the stairs. It's a studio with a few chairs, mirrors and a counter to pay All the other rooms are separate. It's tricky to find parking around here. I got my eyebrows done only and paid about $15 including tip. Now for me this is a lot for just a clean up. They got the basic job done in about 5 mins but I was hoping for a bit more shape as I have very thick eyebrows. I'm used to paying around $7-$10 for much more. The studio is very clean and comfortable which is nice. I would come back here if I don't find another local threading place. read more

It really pains me to have to update my review from five stars to one. I literally just left this location in tears. My eyebrows ruined. And I'm not being dramatic either they are completely different shapes she just did the worst job. She knew I was completely unsatisfied with it she tried to fix them. it wasn't going to work she made them so thin there was not much left to work with. the other lady there just stood there she didn't try to help or anything. overall i do not plan on returning. And if I were I will return to this person. she's at the chair closest to the window. I paid and I still tipped like I normally do but I left very upset. You would think that knowing she messed my brows up and I was unhappy she would offer to at least discount. Smh. The personnel changes here have made this place too unpredictable for me. read more

I once read somewhere that "eyebrows are sisters, not twins". With that being said, I am almost always insecure when I get my eyebrows done at a new place. Having just moved to Virginia from California, I was in need of a good, reliable place to get my eyebrows threaded. I've done extensive research on Yelp and it led me here. Meera was sweet and friendly. The job was done quick and painless (I've been threading for two years now and I'm used to it). At first I thought my eyebrows were uneven and it made me angry to see that the job wasn't done right! But I just kept thinking of the quote above and reassured that Meera knew what she was doing. I've come to the realization that my eyebrows are not perfect and that they're not meant to be exactly identical. Service on a Friday evening was quick with no wait! They opened up a new location by Court House Metro and they say it's just as good. I'll have to give that place a try since it's closer to where I live. This place was easy to find, go up the stairs and follow the signs. Make some time to visit the surrounding area as well! It's a nice area to stroll around. read more

This place is exactly what the name implies... Eyebrows done at an express pace! I walked in on a Sunday and was seen immediately. I explained the shape of the brow I wanted and within a few minutes I had perfectly groomed brows!! So quick, simple, and best of all the girl's work was done exactly as I requested. Easy location right in old town. I'll be back again and again! For only $12 it was slightly pricier than I'm used to in Fairfax (about $10) but I'd definitely return. read more
