Sovan responded to my Yelp message in 5 minutes and did a wonderful job on my eyebrows.

I slipped out from the office for a break and came back 15 minutes later with freshly shaped eyebrows. My coworker stared at me, trying to figure out what was different. After studying each facial feature, she realized it was my brows and proceeded to ask me where I got them done. She complimented me on my new look and was surprised when I told her how close Sovan's was to our office. In my LA days, I used to get my eyebrows threaded regularly but since living in SF, I've cut back significantly on what I consider to be luxuries. Luckily, Sovan's is quite affordable with the Groupon offer I purchased. I might even come back at full price given the convenience. read more

Sovan's is a hidden-gem in the Financial District -- it's on the second floor of a salon (so it might be a bit difficult to find). There are two threading chairs and a small waiting area -- typically, the wait can be up to 10-15 minutes depending on the day! There's usually a deal on Groupon ($8-$10) for Sovan's which I really enjoy. I believe Groupon only allows you to purchase the deal twice but the original price is $12 which isn't too bad. I typically get both my eyebrows and upper-lip threaded whenever I go (total with Groupon is $20). Sovan is very attentive and does her best to help shape your eyebrows based on your preferences. if I'm ever in the area and my eyebrows needs a quick pick-me-up, I would definitely come back and visit Sovan! Rating: 4.5/5 read more

The building Sovan's office is connected with other beauty service companies. You'll have to call to be buzzed into the building so it is best to call in advance so she is aware that you're coming! But you might have to wait because she handles payments, the services provided and letting people in. I was a bit skeptical at first because she took literally less than 5 minutes eachh on the 3 girls ahead of me... But when it was my turn, I was really impressed with the shape of my brow! The only downside of Rashila's work is that because of her quickness, there were quite a few ingrown hairs I had in my brow bone area which was kind of annoying because those hairs are the one I hate having to take out myself with a tweezer :( I would have definitely loved her services if this was taken care of. $12 for the service which is super affordable. Rashila also provides a stamp card for you to check off and use to redeem a free threading session! read more

This location is very clean and comfortable. My eyebrows look amazing! And the scheduling was very flexible and convenient :)

Heard good reviews about this place and was eager to try them out... however I am highly unsatisfied on how my eyebrows turned out. Don't get me wrong, the lady who did my threading was very friendly, but it wasn't until after I got home and was more able to examine my brows that I realized what was wrong! My eyebrows are thin, therefore I made sure to clearly say keep them as thick as possible, just clean them up! But no... they look minuscule:( , and there's no excuse as to why because I've been to many threaders before and they were ALL capable of shaping while keeping thickness. I knew something must have been wrong while I was still in the process since the girl took three times as long as any other threader I've been to. Meaning she kept threading and threading and threading! Whats even more funny is that she missed a BUNCH of hair under my eye that she actually should have taken off! (See picture attached taken hours after my visit) Very disappointing, good thing I am able to talk myself into believing "it's just hair... it will grow back in time." Yikes! read more

Sovan's Eyebrows Threading - Hours after my visit. Left w/ many hairs beneath my eyes.What's the point in getting the service done if it isn't done properly! - Threading Services Near Me - San Francisco, California

I have been searching for months for a threading place that was excellent with customer service and professionalism. Sovan and the team here are vital to that--they're everything you could expect. They stay true to the loyalty of their customers. I have never experienced a mess up with my service. Throughout my days, compliments pour in with the great work they do. They take their time with each guest, before leaving they will make sure you are satisfied--if not, they will fix that problem. I would recommend this place all the time. Please visit them, you will not regret this. PS, please come in with hair on your eyebrows that they can work with. read more

I came here and had my eyebrows threaded ($20). The studio is a bit difficult to find. When you enter the building, you walk down the hall, up the staircase (mezzanine level), and it's the first door on your right. It was a bit confusing at first and I had to call to get directions. Sovan did a great job shaping and cleaning my brows up. I will definitely come back here. read more

Fast, speedy, reasonably priced with good (look) results. You should go there. Covid safe

Excellent place for threading. I've known Rashella (owner) since she moved here from DC and started this business. She is quick, efficient, clean and has good hours, in addition to being a lovely and enterprising young professional woman. She does the best job in the city and has rates that are competitive. read more

This building seems to be a busy place for hair, nails, and threading. I've been here many times for full face threading. It's usually the owner Rashila there whenever I've gone. They have a stamp card. Upper lip threading is $10. $35 for full face threading without eyebrows. read more

While this place may appear a bit small, but the nice, clean, cozy atmosphere makes you feel at ease. Normally I am in so much pain from threading, but because of its amazing look, it's my only method for eyebrows. The stylish here is so good that you barely feel the pain!! I had to put a review because I never felt so little pain when threading my brows before, and I have nice full eyebrows too :) Mashallah :) read more

My favorite threading spot hands down. Went in the first day they opened during COVID and was extremely impressed w/ my eyebrows. I was very specific on how I wanted them done and the lady (I forgot to ask for her name) exceeded my expectations. I have so many people asking me where I got my eyebrows done and I happily refer them to Savon's. read more

I needed to get my brows done urgently. This place accepts walk-ins. Very meticulous and convenient place to come to.

Sovan's was my first eyebrow threading experience. It's a small shop and I've had two threaders in the past year. It's clean, and they do a good job. They are pretty quick with the eyebrow threading experience, about 10 minutes or so. It can be a bit painful but that's the nature of eyebrow threading. I find deals on Groupon so check back every 6 months to be eligible for deals. read more

I found her. It has taken multiple disappointing times at a different spot for me to find Sovan and realize a good thing when I find one. Her place is small and she's a one woman show. I've never had to wait, but I understand that may go down. Her chair and space is clean and Sovan** herself is super polite: She's not chewing gum, her breath is fresh, she smells good. Hey, that stuff matters; I've had some crazy threading experiences. Most importantly, Sovan is super thorough. She's got a good eye for eyebrow arches and she actually is quite conservative with hair removal, which I appreciate. I'm of the thought you can always take off more, but you can never put it back on. Regardless, I'm giving Sovan the YoSteph eyebrow stamp of approval. $12 for eyebrow. ** Looks like her name is not Sovan, but something else. I'll report back. read more

I discovered this place through a Groupon deal one day when I was insanely bored at home. I purchased 3 sessions for $14.40 and I'm glad I did because now my eyebrows are on fleek :) :) :) The regular price of the eyebrow threading is $12, which is not too bad considering it's located in the Financial District. I was really surprised at how nice this place was. It was very clean, spacious, and modern. Sovan was really friendly and conversational during the entire session. I usually get an eyebrow wax, but this time I went for the threading because it was a steal! To start off with the procedure, first she used a eyebrow shaping scissor to trim my eyebrow hair then she asked how I wanted my brows to be done. I requested a high arch and showed her how my eyebrows looked before it grew out. Then she took out a brand new thread and removed pieces of my hair. She cleaned out my hair in less than 5 minutes and I was impressed! I loveeeee my new eyebrows now!! Warning, if you have very sensitive skin around the eye area then eyebrow threading is not for you! It was very painful for me and it felt like an electric shock every time she threaded a piece of my hair. It is definitely bearable if you have tough skin! Tip: Do not drive here! read more

Sovan's Eyebrows Threading - I love my eyebrows!!! (Not filled) - Threading Services Near Me - San Francisco, California

RASHILA: TRANSFORMING EYEBROWS FROM RAGS TO RICHES! I'm so glad I finally found my #1 girl for eyebrow services. I lost hope in my eyebrows but Rashila revived them beyond my expectations. She was quick but steady. The final product was clean, full, and the perfect shape! Even my upper lip was poppin AF! Eyebrow- $12 Upper lip- $8 The location is inconvenient for cars cause parking is tough. She takes appointments and walk-ins. She takes card and cash. You also get a stamp card so the 11th eyebrow session would be free! FLEEKY BROWS MAKE A HAPPY GIRL :) read more

Sovan's Eyebrows Threading - Unfilled - Threading Services Near Me - San Francisco, California

Came here for my first eyebrow threading appointment (courtesy of Groupon). I've heard so many people say that threading hurts way more than waxing, but it actually didn't. The first time she used the thread to pull the hair it was kind of shocking because I didn't know what to expect, but after that it was not uncomfortable at all. Sovan is friendly and talked to me during the process about random things and her moving to CA recently. The building is a shared building (all cosmetology related) and she has a room in there. It's not very big but it's clean and does the job. Parking of course is horrible. It's close to Chinatown. There are tons of meters if you get lucky. read more

Yelp says they're open at 11 on Saturday, messaged the owner directly for brow threading at 11:30. She confirmed that by email. I drive an hour to the appointment. She and no one else are even at the salon. I email her. She says they open at 12 on Saturday, and there's a sign on the door that says 12. I did not appreciate that I confirmed by email, checked the yelp Page, then drove all the way to the salon to find out it's not open ? Not returning. read more

Very welcoming, friendly and talented. My experience at Sovans was lovely. I would definitely come back again!

Sovan's is located on the mezzanine level (previously on the ground floor) at 520 Montgomery St (your one stop shop for all your beauty needs!). PS right across from Venom hair studios =) The lady who did my eyebrows was very friendly and was able to accommodate me as walk-in. There were two girls in line and I was seen in less than 10 mins. She was super efficient, but also really personable. I already know this place will be part of my regular beauty routine, especially with the frequent visitor card (11th visit is free!) read more

Sovan's Eyebrows Threading - Nicely shaped brows $12 - Threading Services Near Me - San Francisco, California

AVOID. (SEE PHOTOS) -- Woman went at lightening speed, left me with the thinnest and most hole-y brows I have ever had. The shape of my bold brow went from arched beautiful to completely strange and scraggly. She left hair where she should have thinned and removed and thinned out and made holes where she should have just cleaned up. Still had the audacity to request me to pay for any service. Avoid at all costs esp the woman who works on the left chair. Also did not see her disinfect after playing on her phone. Absolute worst job I have ever seen and I have gone every 2 weeks for the past 15 years. read more

Was really excited to get my eyebrows threaded here based on all the reviews and after growing my brows out for three months. After I got my brows threaded I loved how clean it looked.....until I took some pictures that night and saw how uneven my brows were :(. Really disappointed with the turn out and will not be returning. I guess I have to grow out my brows again and continue the hunt for a good threading place. Two stars for how responsive and nice they are when I was trying to make an appt. read more

Finally grew the courage (well, out of pure desperation tbh) to try Sovan's again after my horrible experience three years ago. This place was once my go-to until a really traumatic experience several years back and I hadn't returned since...until today. I went and was really nervous when I didn't see the owner in shop, but rather a new gal I had never seen before. I decided to stick to it and try it out in hopes for the best. I explained what I wanted and had a great experience with Rose. She kept my thick brows and worked with the areas that hadn't grown out yet from the last disaster. I highly recommend her! read more

Sovan's Eyebrows Threading - Threading Services Near Me - San Francisco, California

I've gone to lots of eyebrow threading places in the city and I will say this place is not great. They say walk-ins accepted but I went there twice and the door was locked. I called the number and was told someone would be there shortly but that's not what a walk-in is... The threading itself was very harsh. I felt I was roughly-handled by the technician and was left with a tiny cut at below my eyebrow. Not what I'm paying for, sorry. I think the owner's little sister also works here. She seems to be very nice and welcoming. read more

Despite telling Rashila that I don't want my brows shaped and asking her to just remove the extra hair and in growth - she shaped them super thin and removed a lot extra hair than necessary on my right eyebrow. I wasn't too happy with the end result. Now I'm going to have to fill them in everyday. Edited this review cause she took the time out to reply to this Yelp post and explain and rectify her actions. read more

Not the easiest location to find, but when you find it, it's a really nice space. Small and quaint, but not much space is needed for this type of service. The work was great. I've been to some places where they've practically butchered my eyebrows to where I look like Mona Lisa. She did a great job. Only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars was her speed. She seemed kinda lost and slow. But the work she did was great! If I could give 4.5 stars I would! Will definitely return! read more

I joke that all my looks are in my eyebrows and hair and despite that because of my low pain tolerance I'm always so reluctant to get my brows done. Well no more! Sovan's is a quick hop skip and jump from my office and both sisters are talented, quick, cute and funny. Not only are they so good are doing your eyebrows quickly and pain free, they recognize you and make you feel like a valued customer. Ive been getting my eyebrows done for almost a decade and I've never had a better experience. I get so many compliments on my brows and I send everyone I know to Sovan's. I cannot recommend more Note : it's slightly hard to find, it's in a building of other small salons and located on the second floor. read more

I've gone to Rashila several times and she's excellent. But her sister, Roshni, did the best job on my eyebrows--ever. Three cities, two coasts, many salons in each, and never have I been so satisfied with my brows. She is incredibly meticulous and will spend 20 minutes if need be, making sure they're perfect. I have a little scar in one of mine so they're a bit more difficult than average, but she made sure every single hair was in order. Better yet, she did such a great job that I could let them go a month before getting them done again, allowing my to grow them thicker. Seriously, come here! read more

I like to find my go-to spots in whichever city I live, and I'm glad I found just the spot. I've been coming here for the past year or so! Always friendly, quick, and reliable, I've never had a negative experience here. Really awesome that they have a stamp card too! read more

A year later and my review is the same! Rashila kills eyebrows and tints! If you are very particular about your brows this is the place to go her attention to detail is impeccable. read more

I love this place! I have been here enough times that I have rotated among the three girls work here. Two of them are sisters, and all of them are so nice and sweet. Can easily say all three do a consistent and great job. Bonus that they open til 7 PM on weekdays, which is a nice swing-by after work, unlike other Fidi options that close before you get off work. Once I got off right before 7 and I called to ask if they were okay for a walk-in, and they were willing to wait for me even as it was closing time! The past couple of times that I've been here, I've asked for what kind of eyebrow look I was going for - default is just to clean, but I wanted more of an arch. Don't be afraid to communicate what you want, they listen, and do good work. read more

The yelp offer works, quite friendly lady. For waxing you don't get a gown which was kind of shocking for me.

Rashila is awesome! She is always so fast and meticulous; I have never been disappointed. She recently changed her prices to $14 for eyebrows, but has happy hours Monday-Wednesday between 2-4pm for $12. Also, if you get a stamp card, the 11th session is free! read more

Bought a Groupon deal and will continue to come back! I was able to schedule a same-day appointment and was in and out within 15 minutes. It's practically painless and she does a fantastic job :) read more

I have used Savon's eyebrow threading service 3x now and each time the service and quality were excellent. Savon's technique is unmatched. She is able to thread men's and women's eyebrows with perfect balance and arch. She NEVER makes a man look too feminine which is a problem I have had with other professionals who used wax. Her studio is very quiet and modern. And the prices are the lowest I've ever come across. Highly recommended and a 5 star rating. I'll be a client for a long time to come. Conveniently located in the financial district where you can have services completed during your break. Please check her services out. read more

They did a really good job and the price is right for SF. I highly recommend this place.
