"Happy days!" I declared when I received an email from Brow Theory to say that they had opened a…read morenew store at The Strand in the CBD. I have been a client of Brow Theory for a while, but unfortunately I had never been able to fill my card with enough stamps to claim a freebie, because with a schedule that's a bit all over the place and haphazard beauty routine - I rarely found myself with enough time to get out to Armadale or remember in time to book in one of the popular Wednesday/Friday sessions they did at Miss Fox. Having tried other places more convenient to me in the meantime and having suffered from uneven brows and horrible patchy red skin for up to a week following, I was thrilled to see them open a permanent home in the CBD. This will forever be my go-to now and I *may* even maintain the things now instead of waiting for them to be gross to get them fixed! I popped in today for their opening special to get a full shape up before having lunch with my best friend. The only girl I would let lunch with me with firey-red patchy skin. Only I didn't have that problem. In fact she commented that apart from being meticulously neat, she couldn't even tell that I just had them done. Brow win. The staff are incredibly lovely and good at what they do. My brows are an awkward shape and will never grow properly thanks to a bad waxing job as a teenager, but the girls always discuss what they're going to do to make them as even as possible to make me feel comfortable before they attack them with thread. Recommended.

As a walk in off the strand the ladies here took wonderful care of me. Within 15mins I had walked out with newly shaped fabulous brows.

I can usually walk in with no appointment and leave within 15 min.

It's cheaper than some others in the vicinity too, I pay $22 and in my opinion they provide an all round better service. There's also a loyalty system, with your 7th threading free. The staff are always ridiculously happy and friendly, I walk out of there with a smile - and some very fine brows. The ladies will ask how you'd like your brows styled, checking after each brow that you're happy. Don't worry if you're a newbie, I have taken plenty of people here to have their first threading experience and the staff are always happy to provide some friendly guidance. The store can be a little tricky to locate as it's tucked down Royal Arcade, you can access from Bourke Street Mall or Elizabeth Street. I don't make an appointment and haven't had to wait longer than 5 mins.

For my very dark and noticeable brows, I go to one of the fancy joints that will thread for $35 but you need to book in advance and I always forget until they get really unruly. I have walked past Miss Brow Bar every time I've been to the South Melbourne Market and noticed they only charge $22 and accept walk-ins, offering quite a fast and friendly service. So I decided to finally give them a go. The girls were lovely. The chairs were very rickety and I felt like I was going to fall off the whole time, which did make me a tad nervous about losing a brow, but it was fine. It was over and done with in a flash. Upon inspection at home, I noticed quite a few strays and it wasn't as clean as my normal job. The redness has stuck around for 2-3 days so far which I've never had before. Never the less, pretty happy with the end result and it wasn't anything a tweezer couldn't fix and my fringe couldn't disguise. I would recommend them for touch ups and people happy with the existing shape of their brows. For new shaping or if you're unsure what you're after, I'd probably pony up the extra dosh.

Since I haven't done this for a long time I thought $22 is quite steep to be honest.

I was the only customer so was serviced immediately but have to say I didn't love the job she did on my eyebrows. And what really surprised me in a bad way was how she didn't bother to wipe any of the hair covering my face or even offer me a tissue to do it myself. I don't consider it be a higher level of service, to help brush off the hair you've just plucked (I think that's basic), but maybe that's just me. Any who, I was glad to get back to Full Brow and will stay with them for the duration of my stay!
