I used to rave about this place. When I found it, hardly anyone visited it. After I reviewed them, the owner told me that a lot of people started to come and business was getting better. I selfishly lamented over the fact that it would get busier and likely cause a wait but I was happy that business might mean they would be around for longer. Soon after, I found a new spot that was closer to my job at that time which made it easy for me to pop in during my lunch and get serviced. I went to my new spot today, after over 7 months of wearing bushy brows, resembling one of my fave GoT characters, Arya, who is played by Maysie Williams. Now, while I LOVE the show and adore the actor, I don't want my brows looking like two caterpillars crawled onto my face and died. Unfortunately, my brow tech was not available and I could wait no longer so I hightailed it to I Smail, knowing that I would get a decent threading done with which I'd be happy. I waited for a mere five minutes before she sat me in her chair and started on my brows. I asked for a tint since I'm going away on vacay and don't want to have to worry about sexing up my brows with makeup. I also asked for my upper lip to be waxed (no, I don't have a stache but getting the peach fuzz/baby fur removed makes makeup applications far more perfected). Afyer everything was said and done, the woman tells me it costs $32. I had to repeat the total because I was un utter disbelief. The brow threading, as stated on their menu only costs $8 and the lip wax had to be around $5 so I deduce that I paid a whopping $20 for a tinting? It's asuch a rip off to charge for henna like I was getting decorative henna on my arms. To make matter worse, she took her own tip, thinking I was giving her an $8 tip. If I had more time to waste, I would have stayed and questioned the charges but I have a baby at home and I'm her walking tap so, I was on borrowed time. After this experience, I tell you that I will never grace their threshold with my presence again. I'll just wait for my regular tech 5 minutes away on Gun Hill Rd. at Smile Beauty Salon where my brow and lip threading AND brow time cost only $16 dollars. Yes. HALF that price. I say, "Good day!" I should also include that my brows are definitely on point but like I said, I pay $16 for work that is just as good, if not better. read more

Oh this my lady right here, She gives a mean facial and is my brow go to. I tried tinting my brows couples of times which I loved.

Clean, good prices, and elegant work. Parking: always pay your meter, even your getting your eyes brows threaded. Yonkers is always aggressive with tickets. Update to review: I sat there for 30 minutes until the henna was "dry" or until she told me I was done. The second I was out I realized it was smudged where she went to far onto my palms. I asked her to fix it, she said I could do it myself. It came off an hour later. Then 12 hours later I went to sleep and I woke with henna all over my face. Thats never happened to me before. read more

Came here to get a henna tattoo for the first time. The place it's self was very clean and smelled really good inside. The location for me is not the best, it's very hard to find parking but after going around the block three times a spot finally opened up. My henna tattoo came out ok, not the best, some of the lines are a little sloppy but it's ok. I probably may not come here again for a henna but I do want try my eyebrows here next. read more

I Smail Beauty Salon - This is my henna a few hours later after getting it done. - Waxing Near Me - Yonkers, New York

This place is nice! Amina did my eyebrows. I got the tinting & threading. My suspicions is that the older woman Rosie is the head threader expert that knows wat shes doing bc everybody was going to her. This was my first time there so the next time I go, I will be going to her. Sorry Amina, but after showing you pictures of how I wanted you to do my eyebrows, you still did a subpar job. Im only giving this place 3 stars this time bc Amina didnt do my eyebrows the way I wanted. And they charge $8 to do eyebrows bc its Yonkers. In the city, eyebrows are done for $5. I will give this place another chance next time with Rosie read more

I Smail Beauty Salon - Waxing Near Me - Yonkers, New York

I have been coming to this place for a good 3 years or so. Moved out of state and still passed by when visiting because of how GREAT she is at doing eyebrows. That I will not take away from her. But her poor customer relationship skills, Lack of courtesy and rudeness make her loose ALL stars. I ALWAYS get my eyebrows + Lip Wax done which is $12. Sometimes I pay cash sometimes I pay card. Today I am feeling sensitive and decide to only get my eyebrows done for minimum pain experience, This service alone is $8. I go pay with card and WITHOUT informing me, she runs my card for $10. I ask her why and she says she told me the last time, which she did not because last time as ALWAYS I got both services done. In a peaceful tone, I am reminding her that I always get both services done which are over $10 so this has never been a discussion, she insists, I say "fine just do my lip and I will give you the $2 in cash" to avoid further arguing with her. She agrees and proceeds to do my lip, I go pay and she continues insisting that the "sign" is there which let me tell you is a bent up hand written sign and adds that "it's only two dollars, no big deal". Which shocked me because if I were missing $2 she would not give me her services (as I replied to her). As talented as she may be, today's incident and the fact that she is ALWAYS TALKING either on the phone or to the other girl while hovering over your face (which is extremely uncomfortable as she has a rather unpleasant scent coming from her mouth), today will be my last time stepping foot in her business. read more

I Smail Beauty Salon - These are my eyebrows done by her and without any makeup on them. Sucks that she does not know how to speak to or deal with customers. - Waxing Near Me - Yonkers, New York

This place is a hidden gem. The owner is the only worker and she attends to each customer herself. She takes her time to shape your eyebrows. You never feel rushed. She never makes them thin. She keeps your eyebrows thick and adds shape. She did my eyebrows for my wedding. I then brought my younger sister to get her eyebrows done too. I have been coming ever since. read more

I came here after seeing some henna work done for a friend of mine. I decided I wanted to get a chest piece for myself because I was planning to wear a low cut dress to a party the next night. Now the place is a small little spot very clean and the staff were very attentive. I wish I could say the same for the henna. Although the design was very nice, my henna started to fade the next day. And this is not on a location that I wash all day, so I don't understand why would it fade the next day. Maybe my skin just like repairing itself?? I don't know. Overall the woman who did my henna was very sweet. I guess for $30, you get what you pay for. read more

Amazing customer service. I went in wanting a hand and chest henna. She freestyled a beautiful design on both. Clean location and friendly staff. Would definitely recommend. read more

My eyebrows were butchered today. I had half my eyebrows removed and cut off. I have my eyebrows microbladed and she even went inside the microblading and took off most of my natural brows . I have bald spots in my eyebrows and it's taken me years to grow them the thickness that I had. Everyone that knows me looked at me today and was shocked. I'm so devastated about my brows and I'm never going back ever again. read more

Awesome experience here the chocolate wax smelled so good and waxing my under arms was seamless and painless. My henna came out gorgeous as well she took her time and added intrigue details color and a stone!! All for an amazing price I left super excited and ready to party the night away!!!!! read more

I Smail Beauty Salon - Henna Hand - Waxing Near Me - Yonkers, New York

I loved the Gold Facial I had there. It was very refreshing and they left my face SUPER CLEAN! The only thing that bothered me a bit was the facial was done outside where other women do their hair, get waxed and/ or threaded, etc. I want to be relaxed when I'm doing my facial (almost asleep). Therefore, my recommendation is to have the facials done in a back room. read more

Absolutely LOVE this place. A very clean establishment and beautiful atmosphere. I went in to get my eyebrows threaded and tinted, the lady was very helpful and explained how to take care of my eyebrows after so that they can last. I have found the perfect eyebrow place! I highly recommend this place. They definitely earned a loyal customer with me. Prices are reasonable as well. Go! You will not regret it. read more

I have been looking for a threading salon near my house for a very long time! I finallyyyy found the place! They charge $8 for eyebrows. read more

I am new to the area and have been looking for a threading place for a few months (you can imagine what my eye brows looked like!) and came to this place because of its proximity and the Yelp reviews I read. I was very pleased with my experience here. I came early so it was empty - she was working on one person when I walked in and no one was waiting. When it was my turn she asked me how I liked my brows and I was very clear that I don't like thin brows so just to do a cleanup. This is always hit or miss which is why I'm very particular about threading salons. But she did a great job - I love my brows! When we were done she asked if I was a first-timer; when I said yes she offered me a flyer and told me her hours as well as the other services they provide. Eyebrow threading is $8, a little more expensive than the city but certainly a doable price. She was very nice and did a great job. I will definitely be coming back! read more

I'm from Queens - where I can easily find eyebrow threading salons around my apartment. I stayed in Yonkers with my family for two months and my eyebrows got too crazy to ignore. I was so scared to try a new place, but based on the positive reviews, I decided to give it a try. The place was really easy to find. It's meter parking but I got lucky with a spot. I walked in to a really nice, spacious, and clean place. I felt better immediately. The girl, although she looked extremely sad to be there, did a wonderful job. There's not much specifics to get into, but I came out feeling tamed again. It was not expensive either, which was the cherry on top. I'd definitely return! read more

Got my eyebrows threaded and tinted. I was very pleased with my experience. I didn't have to wait upon arrival. She's very attentive and gives advice on grooming eyebrows. The place was clean and I just love the pretty pink decor and walls. Will definitely be returning and I recommend this place read more

Worse eyebrow place ever. How do you not notice you left one eyebrow way thinner then the other one on top of messing up the shape horrible job . read more

I have recently gotten my eyebrows done here last Friday and I love it. It is very clean and they are very professional. Your comfort is their upmost concern, they constantly check if your ok or do you like the work they have done so far. Also, they are extremely affordable $8.00 for threading and $14.00 for tinting. They will now be my go too brow salon. read more

I love coming here for eyebrow threading! The shop is conveniently located off McLean Ave in Yonkers and is very welcoming. The women that run the shop are lovely and excellent at what they do. While there is occasionally a line to wait in, it is well worth it for the professional level of threading available here. read more

I came here to get my eyebrows threaded for the first time, thanks to Yelp reviews. Parking is metered, but it was't a problem because I was in and out in 15 minutes! I was next in line when I got there but I swear it got full right after I came in. I'd let my brows go out a bit so she had more to work with but all I had to tell her was I wanted an arch and voila! I have perfectly arched brows that finally match each other (I've had that problem for years) AND it's been a week and they're still flawless! And all for only $8 (which is less than I was paying to get them waxed). Definitely my new go-to place. read more

Very clean and professional place. The owner is always so friendly and always does a great job on my brows. If you tell her what you want exactly she will listen throughly. Amazing place! I highly recommend it. read more

I love this place! I prefer the owner to thread my eyebrows. Twice the young girl Sonia did it and something about her technique made it feel like a razor was slicing me! Too painful with her so I stick with the owner. read more

Before coming here, I was the type of person who enjoyed waxing my eyebrows. However, this place changed that about me. I can't picture myself getting my eyebrows done anywhere else. Personally, I think the older woman does the best work but they're all very good. Not only do they do a great job, but the staff is welcoming and kind. I highly recommend this place. read more

I am new to the area. I came here because my daughters wanted hennas. We left with beautiful hennas (which were inexpensive by the way) and I left with great looking eyebrows (threaded) The ladies and man that work there are very patient and friendly. It is also very clean, which is a huge plus!! read more

I come to this place for my eyebrows because she does a good job, but I notice she always has an attitude. Once again I decided to go and again she was being rude. I asked her nicely when do you open, she said 10:30am meanwhile I was waiting outside until 11:00am and rudely says go inside! I thought okay shes late it happens and ignored her rudeness. Then she decided to ask where I'm from after I paid her. I told her and she replied" you look Egyptian because you didn't give a tip. I couldn't believe it, you earn your tip and she was being so rude the whole time. read more

Love this place, hidden gem on Mcleans avenue. After I tried this place I couldn't stop going back. Owner is friendly and professional.

I had my first experience at the salon today and I really enjoyed it! The lady was super nice and she did a great job with my eyebrows. It's exactly what I wanted, thick eyebrows with an arch. Definitely coming back here. read more

I stopped by this place to get my underarm waxed. I can't believe it was only $12 and how fast it was. The lady rossie was there by herself and took care of people back to back. I did have a few hairs and did not come off with the wax:( i heard some places actually pluck those little hairs but rossie did not. However it was cool fast. Did not hurt that much! read more

Since I no longer work in the city, I was worried that I was not going to find a place to get my eyebrows done. I am so happy that I found this place and its close to home. They did a great job and very happy wth the results. read more

The lady who did my eyebrows was not so welcoming or nice. I told her to keep the shape and just clean up. I told her don't make them thin. My eyebrows came out uneven and the shape is different. I had grown out my eyebrows for months for them to get messed up by this lady. read more

I had went to another eyebrow threading place and they messed up my eyebrows. I let them grow out for about six months. I went here and although they didn't come out perfect (because they didn't grow in properly) they were so much better than i had expected them to be. She sat down with me and came up with a plan on how to fix the shape and thickness. Her name was Rosie and she owns the place. She told me she works Tuesdays and Wednesdays and will be going every three weeks. She ended the consultation with a henna tattoo and she designed it free hand. It came out beautifully. read more

I just got my eyebrows threaded today and needless to say they came out great. The young woman who did my eyebrows took her time and made them even with nice arches. Will make this my regular place for my eyebrows. They are open Monday-Saturday until 8pm, which is great! The eyebrow threading only costs $8, which is also a great price for great work. Lastly, they offer so many more services like henna tattoos and facials. read more

Rosie was excellent! I love my henna tattoo and threading of my eyebrows was perfect. Highly recommend Rosie and Aman!
