Walk-in. No line, only one worker. She was very nice to talk to :). Did seem like she was in a rush to get me in and out. She did offer to put allow on my eyebrows after. It was much appreciated. She recommended to come back every 4-6 weeks. Not painless! But threading is definitely faster and hurts less than self-pluck. read more

Had a lovely time getting threaded Reena. She was professional, friendly, and precise with threading. Thank you! Supporting my Nepali family! read more

Bad experience! Stumbled upon this salon today at around 1pm and thought I'd give it a go. I have never had a worse experience at a threading salon! After waiting ten minutes for her to finish a conversation with a man who was obviously not a costumer, she finally addressed me. I asked for her to cleanup my eyebrows, but keep them thick. In less than 5 minutes, she finishes and I think "wow, she must be a pro to finish that quickly!" I was unfortunately wrong. She missed many places with unruly hair. I had to ask her three separate times to clean up the areas and each time she rushed and seemed to be annoyed, even though I was LITERALLY THE ONLY COSTUMER IN THE STORE! I finally asked her to trim my right eyebrow on the side a bit, as most threading places do, and she loudly replied "I did already!" and trimmed a completely different area. It wasn't until I got home that I realized she didn't trim the area I specifically pointed to and that she didn't even pluck my unibrow area. Was left with several hair patches that were obviously not apart of the shape of my eyebrow and missing hairs. I literally could have done the job she did by myself and better. Could have saved myself $11. I will never come again!! read more

I've been to the M&M on M.L.K. a few times and was so excited to see that they opened up another shop on Durant near campus. The service is always great but today I was lucky and got to meet REEMA! I've been getting my eyebrows threaded for years and have never had an experience better than today. She is friendly and sweet and did a FANTASTIC job on my eyebrows! She took her time to make sure I got what I wanted and it didn't hurt one bit. This was a personal first for me (I have super thick hair lol). Also the aloe massage at the end was just tops. If you're new to threading or just picky (like me) when it cones to your eyebrows definitely request Reema :). I will definitely be going back to her. P.S. Their new shop is also super cute :) read more

Five stars for Reema!!! I have been going to M&M (MLK) for about 3 years now because they do a pretty good job with my eyebrows. However, Reema did an exceptional job with my eyebrows last week. I love that she took her time (the others finish really fast) and was extremely gentle. I hardly even felt anything when she threaded my eyebrows. I had a great conversation with her and she is just a super sweet and kind person. Not only did my eyebrows look great but I enjoyed the process because she continued to talk to and made me feel really comfortable! I definitely recommend her to everyone! I will most certainly be back so we can finish the conversation we had! Thanks Reema!!! read more

Been coming to this salon for a year now and won't be going anywhere else while I go to Berkeley! The most gentle eyebrow threading I've ever received! Highly recommend coming here for all your eyebrow needs! read more

Really fast and clean! Great first experience! There was no wait and the worker was really nice

I've gotten my brows cleaned here five times and I have always been satisfied with the results. I've had a different person every time and each of them have spent a good amount of time to get the job done well. read more

Bad experience, very disappointing regarding the cleanliness of the "cabin" and the global quality fo the services. I am currently in holidays and was looking for a nice place to wax my eyebrows and have a facial, it was close from my hotel so I tried here at M&M Durant St. The entrance of the salon was ok and nice, so I went on and I was happy that the lady was free to take care of me. But, when I came in the cabin hidden at the back of the store I was starting to be very dubtful : a little room, not very clean, with a non-engaging and moving "treatment table". And it was dirty to the possible : nor protective paper, nor clean head towels which were full of wax stains (I hope...) and yellow/brown strains. Beurk !! As I unfortunatly not speak very good English and because I was feeling uneasy, I unfortunatly didn't escape with the hope it was just the "relaxed" mood of Berkeley in general and that it was perhaps a very good beauty center, who knows ? So, I had the full facial service, not so bad but really not empressive. Products didn't gave me allergy fortunatly but some of them were stinking the laundry detergent so they were not pleasant for me. The hand movements of the lady for the massage were certainly professionnal but sometimes too brutal, the semi-back massage too short. And it's the first time someone tries to clean my skin from blackheads with warm wax directly on the nose !! It is incredible and really unpleasant !! And after, not well done as she didn't extract blackheads nor in my chin, nor in my forehead. Moreover, as said a previous comment from Lisa, the cabin was not really closed so no way to feel safe and relaxed, I was just with my bra and my pantie under a non professional blanket (like the kind of blanket you find in the dog basket lol) too short so I was cold and I had to put my dress on my feet to hide me and not froze. Another point : the lady was always leaving me alone which is really unprofessionnal at all. She manages to have several clients at the same time so don't expect to be her point of interest during your treatment, it is really not friendly to be left like that on the cabin under the vapor or simply to wait that she has finished her business. Last point : the waxing of my eyebrows... a joke.. I am used to go to Benefit or that kind of brand and I had to insist that she waxes under AND above the eyebrows. Plus, She didn't shape them, nor clean correctly the wax, nor make-up them, and I had to ask for some protective cream that it was hurting! Once again, as I am not at ease in speaking English and as I was so shocked that a beauty service could be so non-professionnal, I prefered to say nothing, just to pay and escape from there. I am mainly very surprizsed that it could exist in US as I was thinking that everything was very clean, mainly regarding body treatments. I was in Palo Alto few days ago and had a mani/pedi in a classic salon and everything was ok, clean, professionnal. Regarding the price performance ratio, it's quite expensive even if it was only 80$ including tipp, mainly because of the unease sensation of dirt and discomfort. The lady was not unpleasant at all but I don't understand how she can't be shameful of her treatment cabin regarding her clients. read more

Reena did a fantastic job, it was faster and much less painful than the usual eyebrow threading. It went by really quick and the service was friendly. I highly recommend! read more

I've been here twice at 5:30pm after work, well before they are supposed to close and the salon looks like they locked the doors hours ago, with no signage indicating any changes in hours :( 2 wasted trips means 2 deductions...5 stars for the threading itself if they were ever open at normal times read more

No longer coming here. First, they have unpredictable hours- I came on a Tuesday at 5:30pm and they were already closed. When I came again another day and actually got my eyebrows done- I walked out with one eyebrow shorter than the other! read more

Came in here for the first time to get my eyebrows done, the process was very painless and clean. She finished and quickly and double checked for stray hairs. read more

Did a great job on full face of threading, they have a light touch and do a thorough job. Will be coming here regularly :)

If i could, I would give her zero or negative stars.. She made a huge cut in my eyebrows and didn't even apologize. I think it was her first week or day working. Please save your self the trouble and misery and do not go to this place. I feel that they don't pay their employees enough and that's why they don't care to do a good job. read more

The appointment was quick and painless! Not only did she do a wonderful job but she was also extremely nice and sociable. I will definitely be coming back :) read more

I always go here every month and they have been consistent with the eyebrow threading. I love how they do it where it doesn't hurt much. I recommend! read more

The worst eyebrow threading I have ever gotten. My eyebrows look nothing alike. It is going to take me months to grow them back out to look even. She turned one eyebrow into a thin line! read more

M&M Thread Salon - Need I say more? I have a long and skinny eyebrow and a thick and short one. - Threading Services Near Me - Berkeley, California

Reena did a very thorough wax, using hard wax, and it was not very painful compared to past experiences. she even gave me numbing cream to put on before! Srijna threaded my eyebrows and did a really great job, making sure they were exactly how I wanted them!! read more

Great service! Really nice and receptive to what you want and are looking for. Will definitely be coming back!!

One of the best I've been to so far. Hurt far less than any threading place I've ever been to & they did a fantastic job. Highly recommend them. read more

Fantastic experience! I've been threading for years, and this is the first time it's been low pain while still high reward. Extremely precise and quick. Plus, Rina was extremely friendly and wonderful. Thank you!! read more

Came here to get my Eyebrows threaded. It was super quick and painless! The lady was very friendly and chatted a little bit so it wasn't awkward. I liked my brows, and this place is pretty affordable. Next time my bushy brows start to grow, I will be back for a thread!! =] read more

This place isnt bad if you are in for just a clean-up, but it's definitely not the the place if you are coming in to get it shaped to your own personal preference. The past 2 times I came here the ladies never did a great job of shaping my eyebrows to the way I want them to be (I even brought in pictures of what my brows used to look like to show them exactly what I want), but both times they have failed to achieve it. read more

Reema is an angel! She threads eyebrows in the most pain-free fashion. She also is very diligent regarding what eyebrow shape works best for your face. Plus, the price is unbeatable. I will be back! Thank you Reema!!! read more

Had a really good experience with waxing and threading! Rina was friendly and accommodating.

I had eyebrow threading and an upper lip wax with Rina. She was very gentle with the threading and used good quality wax for the upper lip. I always come here because I like the eyebrow shape and it hurts less than other places. read more

I always come here for brows. Reliable and fast. Rina was great and I did the upper lip this time. My upper lip is as smooth as a dolphin now. read more

Great service; very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Eyebrows done exactly how I asked and with minimal pain. New regular eyebrow place!

This place sucks, they leave hairs all over your face, don't clean up your eyebrows well enough, mess up your eyebrows, leave them uneven. Don't come here!!!!! read more

Reema was really good at this! The service was great as well. Definitely coming back again!

Best experience i've had so far in Berkeley! I had both under arm waxing and eyebrow threading, and it was fast and clean! Will come back in the future thanks (: read more

Had a great experience. Service was great- very friendly and quick. My eyebrows look great and not overdone. Will definitely be coming back

Unfortunately, I think the service has declined markedly since my first few months of visiting this location. I think the first month, the threader would really focus on eyebrow shaping, but now she just "cleans up" my stray hairs and doesn't bother to shape my eyebrows or make them symmetrical at all. Worth it to pay twice as much and get my brows waxed at Benefit at this point. Only pros are the price ($10 for eyebrow thread) and proximity to my workplace. read more

This place is kind of hidden and hard to see. It was $10 for a touch up on my brows. I'm neutral about this place but was sad that it was so empty. Maybe if they had more publicity then they'd get more business! read more

I always use this place!! Rina was so great and gentle with my eyebrows. Definitely going back.

I did my eyebrows and upper lip! Rina was very friendly and efficient :) would come again

Reena did a wonderful job! Quick and easy. Her technique she uses makes for a very efficient and painless experience. Highly recommend!

Great service and environment. The nice lady really took her time and effort on threading my brows carefully, she did an amazing job and her methods didn't even hurt my skin. Definitely coming back here every time! read more

I love coming to M&M Thread Salon whenever I need to get my eyebrows threaded! She is very good at what she does, and very quick as well. I'll definitely be coming back! read more
