I wish Centre de Beauté Indienne weren't such an inconvenient distance from my apartment and my…read morework. The threading technique is just catching on in France and I think it's much better than waxing for facial hair. The women at Centre de Beauté Indienne are experts and the thead goes so fast you can hardly see it. Threading leaves no pimples or redness. It costs between 5 and 10 euros and you can go without appointment. They also do waxing for bikini lines and legs. And ... they have great facials. I've only done the basic one, which consists of 1 hour of massages, steaming, creams and masks and costs 29 euros, which I need hardly add is almost half the price of a standard facial at a "normal" French spa. You're "supposed" to have a facial every month, finances permitting, and Centre de Beauté Indienne makes it possible. Be prepared, of course, for the fact that going to the Centre de Beauté Indienne is not an "exclusive" experience, but "populaire," in the French sense, which means that you will have to tell them you want your mustache threaded in front of 20 other people and then you will be seated in one of the chairs right in front of the window and they will thead your mustache or chin or whatever in front of all passerby and people seating (or standing - sometimes it's very busy!). There is a TV blasting Bollywood videos in the corner. If you have a facial, you won't be lying alone swathed in plush white towels in a dimly lit room with cheesy rock sculptures and a cd of babbling brooks and bird noises. You will probably be led to a small room in the back of the main room, where you'll take off your shirt and bra in front of other people who are getting waxed. The women who work there will talk to each other in Hindi or another language. The lights go on and off and there is a steady hum from the crowded main room where people are chatting and waiting and the Bollywood music is throbbing. if you are not of Indian origin, you may be the only person not of Indian origin waiting in the waiting room and all the other women will stare. They seemed a bit confused by my presence in the beginning, but I persisted because even in Paris, with its huge immigrant population, even if there's a word for it in French, they don't really understand the concept of "brassage" (mixing -ie the fameux American melting pot) like they do in NYC where everyone and their mother gets threaded. I love the ambiance. I think it's lively and actually soothing. I like that Centre de Beauté Indienne is so successful and busy. The other day I brought a friend for a facial at 11 am before the crowds arrive and the six women who work there were decked out in absolutely gorgeous colorful saris with immaculate make-up waiting to start the day. It occurred to me that they must be doing pretty well. I love the neighboorhood, in the 10th near La Chapelle, full of Indians and African-French women in coton batik dresses and turbans. But, for those who prefer to be swathed in snow white towels in a dim room with fake rocks and a sea waves cd playing, then this is probably not for you.

I went to Stella the other day to get my eyebrows and upper lip threaded. As a threading enthusiast…read morewho has been getting threading done for several years now in place like New York, Boston, Salt Lake City, and now Paris, this place is what everyone has been saying: they do a great job when it comes to threading. I've been living in Paris for the summer and found the place via Yelp. Side note: According to their website they have more than one location so some of the reviews on here may have been talking about other locations because the venue descriptions may match the one at Passage Brady. Pros: *Quick, painless (I think the most painless threading I've ever received), and affordable. Every hair was removed! *If you aren't fluent in French some of the women can speak a little English enough to communicate what you need to get done. *The location is convenient: there are four metro lines that pass through the area (although out of Paris' city center) and is a quick walk from the metro from the KFC on the corner. It's not the snazzy and glamourous Paris that one might be used to as a tourist but it's perfectly fine and is a nice change in scenery from the touristy areas of the city. I didn't think it was sketchy at all. Cons: *One of the women who was doing threading was using a facial brush (the one found at a barbershop to brush away access hair that has been cut off) all over the face of every single client that sat in her chair after she would thread them. I found that to be unhygienic seeing that it was used all over on at least four different women's faces during the time I waited. *When it was my turn to have gotten threaded, the woman had just done someone else's nails and a pedicure and instead of washing her hands she used hand sanitizer before doing my brows. Kinda gross seeing that she just touched someone else's feet and her hands were so close to my face. Tips: *Bring cash: credit cards can only be used for total amounts of at least 15 euros. *Skip the lotion they offer at the end: I'm used to getting Aloe Vera in the States to soothe my skin after threading so accepted the lotion. The lotion wasn't anything special: it has a super strong scent that I didn't find fragrant at all and unfortunately followed me around for about an hour that I didn't need. *If the person who threads you uses the facial brush and you don't want it speak up and tell them not to use it or just bring your own tissue to wipe off your just-threaded hairs. *It's a small venue so be prepared to stand and wait if there aren't any chairs available. Overall a good place to get your threading done. Just need to improve on some of the hygienic aspects between clients. Five stars for the threading but unfortunately had to dock off two stars because of the previously mentioned cons.

In Paris, getting your nails done can be quite expensive. It isn't like in the USA where you can…read moreget a mani/pedi for maybe even only 20 dollars... no, here, even the cheapest salon will set you back 40 euro. That being said, you can get a polish change at Culture of Color for 5 euro ! They also do a gel mani for 30-something which lasts 2 weeks. In my professional opinion, it is the best place to get your nails done in the city from the price/quality standpoint.

Not exactly a spa environment, but the staff was adorable and very friendly, trying very hard to speak English to my friend. The actual pedicure was average (did I mention I needed this badly?) but the polish was perfect and was such a treat. Easy to make an appointment online, which is a plus for those with poor spoken French (ahem). Nail bar out front was full. Great selection of colors and high quality OPI products.

If you find yourself looking wistfully at the perfect tresses of the French ladies and wondering how they do it, then look no further. Located within the beauty department of the Bon Marche (Good market), the dextrous stylists at 365c will expertly whip your hair into a classic french style under 15 minutes. As well as being fast, it's also a relatively cheap indulgence, with hairstyles costing being 15 and 25 euro. I went in armed with all the French hair words I knew, prepared to ask them to make me look like Bridget Bardot, but they all spoke English and were happy to do so. I was given a lookbook to choose from, with french twists, braids and pretty buns. I couldn't decide and asked the stylist to do whatever she liked - with excellent results. Be sure to leave some extra time to explore the department store itself, as it is absolutely beautiful. Then you can skip off to the Trocodero for your perfect Paris photoshoot. The website says it's open Thursdays and Fridays from 3pm to 9pm, Saturdays from 10 am to 8 pm. You can book online in English.

You can see cuticles weren't taken care of and the tips are not even filled...let alone the quality of the polish which is shrinking already! I also stayed with my feet soaking in cold water for 25 minutes. The gel mani looks good for now (although tips are lighter as well..). The manicure itself was disappointing from cuticles perspective as well. The two stars are for being open on Sunday (the reason I cheated on my favorite salon in Paris) and also for the staff being polite and the lady assisting me trying to be precise. Not going back though...

I came in to see if there were any free appointments that day, to be told no, but I made an appointment for the next weekend. I came in and the hairdresser spent so much time on my wash and cut. Also, something I really hate in Paris salons is that they charge extra for things like conditioner and they always ask if you want these random treatments (which they don't tell you are 50+ euros extra) - she never did this! I had my hair washed, conditioned, had beautiful products put in it, all without charging extra or trying to get me to do an unnecessary treatment. I left feeling really great, with a good cut and amazing blow dry. It cost me about 65 euros, which isn't cheap, but after my last 50 euro cut that was so terrible I am willing to spend the little bit extra to make sure the time is taken and my hair was cared about properly.
