I've been going to IIa for several years now, and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my eyebrows. She is very skilled at eyebrow threading and always take the time to listen to my preferences. IIa is also super responsive and accommodating, making it easy to schedule appointments (via texting). Her studio is clean, comfortable, and welcoming, which adds to the overall experience. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about her clients and delivers amazing results every time, I highly recommend IIa! read more

I found this salon on Yelp and very happy with the service! I have found my new go-to place for eyebrows. For the last few years I had just been doing my eyebrows myself after a bad wax job at a nail salon. My skin is sensitive and I have rosacea so that's why I was looking into threading. Very happy I found Ila. I will be back! Thank you. read more

Did a great job with facial threading -- she has gained a client who will also recommend her services!

Excellent service! Ila's communication is impeccable, availability top notch, the studio has a great and convenient location off Hwy 17 and the eyebrow threading I received was quick and detailed. She is kind and I am looking forward to returning and sharing her information with friends. Highly recommend making an appointment with her when in Los Gatos. read more

You'll never find anyone better than Ila. I've been back to her more times than I can remember, and every time, she shapes my brows perfectly. She's really quick with it, and there's so much less pain when she threads my brows compared to anyone else. Thank you, Ila! read more

Timely service. Prompt response and very flexible to appointment requests. Very happy with service.

Great service!! Super quick and she was able to take me in immediately! Ila is great and I will be back

I have been going to Ila since 2019 to get my brows threaded, and each time I went in for an appointment I was never disappointed. My eyebrows aren't very symmetrical, and I've been to salons around the country that couldn't always make it appear evenly done or they would make it very thin. But I can trust Ila to maintain both the shape *and* natural thickness of my brows, so it's a great service every time I come in! She also takes Venmo, and is a quick responder to my texts. You can call or text to book appointments. read more

Great experience with First Look Threading Salon. Easy to schedule (started with Yelp messages and then going to text moving forward). For me, it's just 5 minutes from the house, so super convenient. Nice community, you'll park on the street. A renovated garage studio was warm and welcoming! There's a helpful picture in the bunch to identify you found the right place. Great job cleaning up my brows, which urgently needed a cleanup! I like how she shapes the brow and did a quick job. I used Venmo but will try to get some cash next time, I just do brows! Definitely recommend and I will certainly be going back! read more

Ila is awesome! This was my first time having my eyebrows threaded by her as I have a go to lady near home(Sunnyvale) but she was out of town on vacation. I happened to be around the area because of an appointment and had about 1 hour to kill- not to mention my eyebrows needed some TLC. I found Ila on Yelp and decided to call for a last minute appointment. She was really friendly and was able to accommodate me immediately which was basically a miracle because it was 5pm. I called 1 other place and the lady had already closed. Overall, I was really happy with how my eyebrows turned out and will definitely kept her in mind in the future when I'm in the area. Please note, this is a home business but she has a designated space for her work which is very clean and welcoming. She provided me with aloe after she was done and was very polite and gentle with her threading process. read more

Very nice place. Ila took very care when she is doing my waxing. I went for underarms and full arms waxing after finding a coupon on Groupon. The location was in a calm neighborhood. Ila has setup her saloon in her home garage. Nicely decorated the place. She made sure I am not cold by keeping a heater and rotating it as required. I didn't feel like I met her for the first time. She explained me how waxing is done while shez at it. She has done a very good job and also applied sooting oil after waxing. I would definitely go back again. read more

Ila was awesome! She took good care of my eye brows and facial hair. She did a a very nice cut and color on me before and I neglected to give her the raving reviews she deserves.
