I've been going to Mendi for years now! She's very kind lady, and she always does a great job :) I highly recommend her to anyone! I love supporting local small businesses, and she's one of those people I would always support. read more

My daughter is extremely picky when it comes to her eye brows. I have taken her to many places before but she was happy with the customer service or the way they shaped her eye brows for her. Which is very long and annoying process to have to wait for them to grow back to try again. But if you go here you won't need to find another eyebrow threading place again. Shes'a the best! read more

She does threading as well as waxing! I'm always very satisfied with my brows when I come here but next time I come back I'm going to wax my upper lip instead of thread LOL read more

Excellent, meticulous, great work! I recommend both ladies, Mendi and Heera do am EXCELLENT job on my brows. I don't trust anyone else with them. GREAT service for a low price so tip them generously. read more

The first time I came here I was in awe. Perfect arches, not too thin or too thick eyebrows. I was held captive by Mendi's work. I was charged $6 and tipped. I just had to come back soon again. And I did. But it was far from the experience I had the first time. There was a teen party going on, and it was really crowded. So crowded I wanted to schedule an appt for when the shop was not as busy. Mendi said she could still take care of me. Not true. I sat down and she seemed to want to focus but just could not. People were trying to get her attention, asking her schedule and telling her fun gossip. My eyebrows paid the price. One was thin and scraggly, the other can only be described as glam caveman. I told her I was not happy and she just shooed me out and said for me not to pluck, she could "tell" I had. I hadn't! It would have been forgivable and understandable seeing as it was a huge party going on. But I was charged $7 dollars, cash. When I asked, she said it was a new rate increase. The third time I went in and asked she said $6. I was purposely overcharged a dollar. It may not seem like a lot and possibly petty to complain about, but I refuse to do business with a shady shop. Overall, seems like potential place for grooming but being ripped off is a nono for me. Will not return. read more

I am a regular here, I've been coming for a few years now. Mendi does such a great job and is very attentive to detail, so I feel like my brows always look great coming out of here. I always feel great coming out of the salon. Especially compared to other places in the 626 that charge a lot more who are not as detail-oriented, I feel like this place is soooo worth it! So I always tip a little extra haha. Heera is really good too! There's not usually a long wait and each time I've gone has been a good experience. Both ladies are humble and super sweet, and do a fantastic job! And parking is easy to find in the back too. read more

I was eating in the area and didn't want to drive to my usual spot a bit further away for eyebrow threading, so I hopped on Yelp and found Mendi! They're located in the back of Lily's Nails and luckily, the wait was short when I arrived around 11 AM on a Saturday morning. There are a few chairs to sit in while you wait and do expect it to be longer than other threading spots in the area as Mendi takes her time to make sure the job is thorough and even! It's worth the extra wait. The only downside is that it's slightly more painful when the threading isn't as quick! Eyebrows were $6 and upper lip is $5. It's a bit more expensive than the store I frequent, but I'd come back again if I'm in the area! read more

I was going to my photo shoot today (driver's license renewal photo) and I wanted to look my best. I was eating lunch nearby and found Mendi through a quick Yelp search. They are located at the rear of a hair/nail salon; just walk straight back. When I got there, there were two ladies working. I didn't have to wait at all for service. The lady working on my brows was very honest about what shape she could make my brows. Then she meticulously threaded the brows. She double checked and kept working on it until she was 100% satisfied. I am happy with the result and it was only $6. read more

Unprofessional behavior. I booked an appointment 5 hours ago for 6pm. I reached at sharp 6pm. She was finishing the eyebrows of a girl. I waited. But then she said she will do the eyebrows of the other two other clients and then work with me. Really? I booked an appointment beforehand just not to wait in line and you are asking me to wait for walk in clients. Then why the hell do you take appointments for? read more

Best place to get your eyebrows threaded, hands down! I'm actually afraid to contemplate a time when they won't be around. Trusting someone with your brows is a scary thing! And I don't even have nice ones.... I can't believe the things people complain about. Your brows don't match because they never do! One always looks better. Oh you had to wait more that 5 mins!? You poor thing. Needs better seating? Are you serious? Go find that nice seating and pay someone $25 to thread your brows with $1 thread. Leave Mendi and Heera to me and the other satisfied customers! read more

I've been cursed with caveman eyebrows, which grow terribly fast and in different directions. But Mendi, incredibly, is the only stylist I have ever been to that shapes them to my satisfaction. I feel like a new woman every time she does my eyebrows! So, if she so expertly sculpts even the messiest, hairiest of brows, why give four stars and not five? Time. As much as I appreciate her skill, she works painstakingly slow. There have been times where I've had to wait nearly an hour, with only one person ahead of me. (Yes, it happened more than once!). She works patiently, purposefully, and will not finish until she feels your eyebrows are evenly shaped and flatter your face. But sometimes- I just don't have the time to wait so long! However, for the price, if you have the time or can call ahead- I definitely recommend Mendi. (Especially if you have manbrows like mine)- only 5.99$ for eyebrow threading! They also have their own parking lot behind the salon, take credit/debit card, AND have a loyalty card (each 11th threading is FREE!). I and my now-beautiful eyebrows give Mendi 4.5 stars for her individualized, expert styling! read more

Mendi and Heera are super nice ladies and do fantastic work! I come here to get my eyebrows threaded with Heera. I use to get nervous about getting my eyebrows done until I came here, now I know I'm in good hands. read more

I've been here a few times now, and have had my eyebrows and upper lip threads by two different ladies. I have had positive experiences every time I have been here. The ladies are very detail oriented and take their time with the threading, leaving no hair unnoticed (unless it's practically impossible to pull out for some reason). They'll even throw in some aloe vera or witch hazel if you request it, or if they see you're a little swollen. For both eyebrows and upper lip, the grand total was $11... definitely not a bad price at all. They even offer a stamp card if you go multiple times. The threading station is toward the back of the facility, where they share space with nail and hair salon stations. The place is relatively clean - clean enough where you don't feel apprehensive. Yes, it's a little painful if it's your first time, or if you haven't had your brows/lip threaded in a while. But, if you have sensitive skin (like me), threading is one of your best options as there are no chemicals that will irritate your skin. As for parking, there is very limited street parking in front of the building, but there is also a free parking structure across the street by the Chase bank along Main Street. It'll only take you a couple of minutes max to walk from there to the facility. Overall, I feel better knowing I'm supporting a small business like Noemi & Mendi. The quality of their work warrants people to go and support! read more

I just found myself my new eyebrow place! Bye bye maya threading! So i've been pretty cheap throughout these years going to maya threading even though they occasionally mess up my brows. But my last experience there had me looking for a new place to go to. The lady that messed up my eye brows there was pregnant and the entire time i had her stomach against my arm and was on her phone -_- ended up having an arc on my right brow and a curve on my right brow -_- now that i've move to Alhambra, i've been a little lazy to drive all the way to rosemead again. After looking through yelp, i've seen a lot of great reviews about this location. At first going through the pictures on yelp it says $8 for eyebrows. Which i'm like okay it's just $2 more than maya which I was okay with. Found out it was less than a 2 minute drive from my house. When i got there i talked to noemi and mendi about my brows and how they aren't the same. Both ladies agreed it wasn't the same. and the arc on my left brow was pretty notice able =_= When I finally sat down and Mendi got her string. I really loved how she took the time to measure and pluck out hair by hair. It was far less painful than the other place. Even though she took 2x longer than Maya. At least she took the time to make sure it is right. Even when she was trimming my brows, she was constantly checking to see if they were even. Although my left brow still couldnt be completely saved. There is still a minor arc to it. But i loved how it almost matches my right brow which is completely how i want it to be. Hopefully in the future my left brow can eventually match my right lol. Oh yeah! It actually ISN'T $8 for brows.... it is actually $6. Same price as Maya, with better quality work! I'm going to come here at least 2-3 times a month. cause they also can do haircuts and manicures (well probably not mani cause i work in the food industry). read more

It's hard for me to trust people with my eyebrows or any other body part. But I trusted Mendi from the beginning. What made it easy was that my sister had gone to her first and said that her first threading experience wasn't bad at all. By now, I have seen Mendi at least half a dozen times, and have been pleased with the results each time. There is never a stray hair that goes unaddressed, which is a rare occurrence because few people thread/ wax/ trim/ pluck as meticulously and diligently as Mendi does. I typically have her do my eyebrows, lip, and chin for a total of $16. Upon request, she can wax in lieu of thread, especially for the more sensitive upper lip area. But I think that it's a $1 more to wax, because sometimes my total is $16 and sometimes it's $17 (I don't always remember to request wax). Bonus: Mendi does stamp cards! So for every 10 eyebrow threadings, you get one free. And she's flexible with the cards--if you forget your card, you can start a new one and then combine with the other the next time you go. I usually text her (the number listed on this page is her direct line) to make an appointment, but have found that that doesn't really matter, because people still come in any time before you anyway... Also, she told me yesterday (July 24) that she'll be gone for a month, returning late August. Her friend will replace her until then; Mendi says she does a good job, too, but I probably won't find out since I don't need to go for another month anyway. read more

I've been looking around for a good but cheap eyebrow threading place and I finally found it! I was getting my hair dyed at Noemi's and decided to try this place out after getting my hair done. There was a line since Mendi was the only one working, so there was a bit of a wait. However, when Mendi did my brows, she took her time and shaped them well! I've been to other places and they make an excuse saying they can't get it even because they're grown unevenly or that's just how eyebrows are. But I was extremely pleased after Mendi did my brows and even they were! The good thing about this place is that it's only $6 and she gives you a stamp card as well. I'm definitely coming back here to do my brows next time I'm in the area. read more

Mendi is very good at threading eyebrows! I highly recommend her! :) Mendi takes her time Only $6 ($7 if paying with debit or credit) I recommend going in the morning when they open if you do not have an appointment. read more

Disclaimer: REVIEW FOR EYELASH SERVICE ONLY. I really hate to do this, but I need to warn other customers of the eyelash service I received two weeks ago. Again, this review is for the eyelash service only. I come here for my brows and always receive great work. Two weeks ago I came in for my eyelashes extension appointment. Long story short, she does not use individual lashes anymore (I've seen her use them). She used clustered lashes on me and it was such a painful experience. During the process she had got glue on my bottom lash, and the lash attached to my eyelid which basically meant my eye was glued shut. This happened about three times during the process and it was so painful. When the extensions began to fall out, they would take at least 2 or 3 of my natural lashes. I'm down to about 65% of my original natural volume and I've learned my lesson. You get what you pay for. Come here for hair removal, unless you want eyelash removal as well. Again, I come here to get my brows done all the time and love the service. But the eyelash service was a complete nightmare. read more

First time at this place. The woman who threaded my eyebrows and upper lip did a great job. I recommend this place :) Support small businesses in Alhambra, CA. read more

Mendi Eyebrow Threading - I think my brows look ok - Waxing Near Me - Alhambra, California

Stumbled upon this place while running errands and let me tell you I'll definitely be back! The lady that did my eyebrows did such an amazing job and you can tell she cares what your eyebrows look like. She took the time to look at them and suggested what I should do. I wish I would have gotten her name. It was also the least painful eyebrow threading I have ever been too. And cheap too! Left a nice tip and she was very grateful. I'll be making the 20 minute drive in the future! read more

True to the reviews, Mendi's touch was very gentle and she is very thorough. No stray hair gets left behind! She adjusted my hands and positioned them . She was very patient, friendly, and attentive! read more

Took her time to create the best symmetry while keeping my eyebrows thick and beautiful! No complaints.

First time going to get my eyebrows done! Really happy with the outcome for sure going back

Sometime between my first few eyebrow threadings and now (I like to think of them as my lost years), I forgot what a good eyebrow grooming looked like. I was so used to having it done incredibly fast and coercing myself into thinking I was content with it most of the time. ...until I met Mendi. Mendi takes her time in making sure that every.single.stray.hair is plucked and that the ones that actually do belong on your face stay there. Good god she's thorough. Takes about 20 minutes to get 'er done so don't come if you're in a rush (although I'm sure Mendi would be very accommodating)! Kaya used to be my go-to but I think I'll cut the 20 minutes of wait time and opt for a quality groomin' in the same amount of time instead. read more

Just walked out of this place so far I liked it still need to get home and thoroughly Something that did irk me quite a lot was that the brow comb that she was using was missing bristles(teeth) and I feel like if you're profession is in the beauty business you should have your supplies ready cleaned and not broken . Also I do have to say it wasn't as painful as in other places that a big plus read more

New to the area and Decided to give this place a try. Asked for a clean up and left with thin, uneven eyebrows. She apparently made one uneven and decided to take MORE away. I was there for 15 minutes as she kept taking hair away from my eyebrows. Horrible work. Do not recommend. read more

So when I went I confirmed over the phone and in person with the lady that a full face was $28 when I get my service it's $30 no biggy I guess I paid $30 plus $5 tip because The lady was working hard and trying her best. Though my eyebrows weren't fully cleaned up and my full face wasn't really fully threaded I ended up going home and getting some wax because it was my birthday and I wanted a smooth face for make up. I also ended up going to another eyebrow place near by that was like $5 and they did amazing and even tweezed the lil hairs she left. I mean it's a 6/10 if it's all you can get do it if you have the time go some where that they pay attention to detail and plucking the extra hairs and a clean eyebrow thread. Wouldn't come or pay for it again but like I said she was nice and working hard maybe she just couldn't really see my eyebrows weren't cleaned and I still had some peach fuzz around my face. read more

I found Mendi on yelp because I work in the neighborhood and I wanted to go somewhere close on my lunch break to get my eyebrows threaded. It was just her and she was already working on someone's eyebrows when I came in. She' very thorough and the end result was commendable. Once she finished up with my eyebrows I was going to leave but then I saw her prices for other services such as underarm waxing. I planned on going to a different place later that charged almost double of what she charged but I changed my mind and decided to let her do it. it was painful but only because it was my first time, but once again she was thorough and when I pointed out some random hairs that she missed, she threaded them away with no problem. I would definitely go to her again. read more

Always does an excellent job and takes her time. I am picky with my brows too. Would recommend

Best prices and threading! Quick and always ready for walk ins. These ladies are the best!

A very happy customer. Great experience when she was at "Maya" in Monterey Park. I am surprised to find her at Noemi. Great service. Very attentive and very detail. She doesn't rush to get the job done. My brows are well-groomed and beautiful every time. read more

I was a little hesitant at first It was my first time eyebrow threading but my eyebrows were out of control and I was fearful of a botched wax job.

Mendi Eyebrow Threading - My first eyebrow threading ever and I will definitely be back - Waxing Near Me - Alhambra, California

See all

I don't recommend you go I had to have her touch it up twice (had some attitude) and one was still thicker than the other. Recommend cash only due to the fact that they charge a dollar extra. Idk what string they use but it hurt more than the other places I've gone. But you pay for what you get so... read more

Mendi has a spot in the back of the nail/hair salon. I called to set up some appts for my nieces. She works with another lady also. You really don't need an appt here. She has a lot of walk-ins. But she's efficient and fast. She's very nice and listens to what you want. My nieces have thick eyebrows and don't like them to be overplucked and thin. She did exactly that. She did a little of threading and waxing . Threading is cheaper than waxing here. If you get waxed , they detail it with threading, hence the higher price . Still pretty cheap tho. This place isn't fancy , Mendi seems to keep her tools clean and sanitized. My nieces will be back here for Mendi. read more

Welcoming, detailed, and efficient. Recommend to all. Hardworking people. Extremely good bargain for the high quality of service and work.

Update: I have returned to Mendi Eyebrow. She has added another person which helps with timing. Although they really take their time to make sure they do a great job, I can't fault them for wanting to give their best. They're hard working and very nice. read more

How did I not discover this place earlier? I used to be so committed going to Kaya Threading even though they always fucked up my eyebrows but now I finally found a place that I can trust. Mendi is careful when she's working on your brows. She takes her time to make sure your eyebrows come out the way you want them to. She even gave me consultation on my brow shape because she saw that they were uneven. Unlike kaya where they seat you down and do your brows in under 3 minutes, mendi really takes her time and her work really shows. I would recommend this place 10/10. read more

I love threading my eyebrows with Mendi. I moved here 6 months ago and since the forst time i came in , i keep coming back. She takes her time doimg her work and results are always awsome. I will continue to come with her. read more
