Overall rating: 3.5 Well, well what can I say. If you request one person, one time - they claim you anytime you visit again. Even if you did not re-request them. You are claimed. I tried to go different days they weren't working & it doesn't matter. They miraculously are working that day... not happy. The prices are great so I do want to try another location to see if it's the same experience. I also asked to get my inner butt since I paid for Brazilian and she refused. She said no. For a service that I'm paying for. It was not cool. Will not be back. I also am susceptible to ingrowns and I thought it was so ironic when she told me it's bc I don't go often or that I'm using other people. When in fact, I was stuck with her the last 4x. read more

I knew I was going to be in the area and heard great things about Thread... so I decided to try them out! $12 for an eyebrow thread is a better price than I've previously paid, so I was excited to see the results! Their website is very easy to navigate and book an appointment through. I was greeted by a very kind esthetician and receptionist. The vibe of Thread is lovely! It's a nice space that kinda reminds me a bit of a modernized salon-like barber shop. Once it was my turn, I sat down and she got right to work, confirming I wanted a clean. She didn't ask many questions after, but hey, I'm not picky with my brows, I just want them to look nice and even, and she definitely delivered! The service was fantastic throughout! Also, at the end, she put some soothing aloe and gave me a temple massage -- it was so lovely :). They have a loyalty punch card so you can get a free wax after coming 7+ times I believe. I'll certainly be back! read more

They messed up my eyebrows. They're uneven now. One is skinnier & lower than the other. My response to the business: Thanks for following up, but I won't be coming back. At this point, I don't need more removed - I need time for the mistake to grow back. I've been using Nutrafol to help with that. I'll be going somewhere else for my brow care from now on. Appreciate your time. read more

I've been a loyal customer for 5 years and service has not been consistent. Today at 4:05pm appointment, the technician threaded too much caused a bald spot. She and another staff insisted it's how my brows are naturally which I didn't have the same results for as long as go to the salon. Very disappointed! read more

Thread - Threading Services Near Me - New York, New York

I was glad to have just walked in to get my brows threaded. I've been growing them out for a month and wanted to have THICK and clean eyebrows. When I sat down, I was asked if all I wanted was a clean. Yes. Just a clean. I left with my eyebrows having been shaped and very much uneven especially at the top. Didnt know that "cleaning" them here also meant involuntary, uneven shaping. Which I wasn't even asked about before the start of the service. I only came here because my usual place was closed today. read more

BEST place in NYC for all your threading and waxing needs! I'm from California and experienced my fair share of threading salons but this one is by far the best. The studio is large and clean and the ladies who work there are the sweetest. They have a reservation system online but you can walk in as well! read more

My experiences here for the past years have been phenomenal. The ladies here are professional and detailed. Now I come with my daughter and she as well loves the service. read more

Came in Thursday afternoon, first time. The lady doing my brows was painful compared to my usual experiences and she snapped (broke) the thread on me at least 3 times. One brow ended up thinner than the other so she went in again and now I barely have any brows left they're so thin. I feel so ugly now I want to cry and I don't know how long it will take to grow them back out. read more

Great salon! The eyebrow threading and the arm wax was super quick and perfect. I usually don't like threading salons because they thin my eyebrows too much, but Uma was fantastic. I will be returning! read more

In the past, this place has done a satisfactory job. However when I went today, all I wanted was for my eyebrows to be cleaned. Instead it seems a complete newbie with no proper training did my brows since they were reshaped and left completely uneven. Very disappointed. For $12, each person working there should be able to do a decent job. I don't think I will be coming here again. read more

Panna gave me the best ever eyebrow tint I've ever had. This was my first time here and so excited to find this spot.

Been coming here for over a year to get my eyebrows threaded and I've always loved this place. I just visited today for the first time during COVID and still got the same amazing service with extra precautions. They've been open since July and are appointment only (can make them online). They make everyone sanitize their hands before entering and everyone wears a mask, including during your service. The ladies that work here are so sweet, always provide great service and it's so affordable! Would highly recommend this place. read more

Great job! Really easy to use booking system, with an option of two locations. Got a very quick and nicely done threading. Pictures you'll see are a little red haha but nothing unnatural from eyebrow threading; got the shape I was hoping for - nothing dramatic and clean. read more

Thread - Threading Services Near Me - New York, New York

Quality threading salon! I've gotten my eyebrows, upper lip and forehead threaded here. Super happy with the quality of service and cost here. Eyebrow threading is $12 which is very affordable in 2023 for a quality salon in Manhattan. Thread follows best practices when it comes to cleanliness and hygiene. All the estheticians I've had appointments with (3 so far - Neelam, Uma and Panna) have been professional and quick with their services. Walk ins are accepted but I highly recommend you take an appointment if you don't want to wait too long since they get busy during weekdays in the evening and sometimes on Saturday morning. Their website makes appointment booking very easy and you can specify a preferred esthetician if you wish. And you can change and reschedule an hour before your appointment too. If you can't reschedule, you can always call them and they're willing to help. read more

You may not "tolerate belligerent behavior " but you created it. In your place of business no less with a paying customer. You should be ashamed of your behavior towards me, Sadia Brangan! You attacked me and now you're gaslighting me with your response below. I will continue to post and speak the truth! I will also report your aggressive behavior to the cops, you are scary!! I didn't violate anything- you had Yelp remove my original review. I posted my review in several other platforms as well and I am within the guidelines because it is the truth, it was my experience caused by your unprofessional behavior. You can have Yelp take this review down too but you will still be a shameful excuse for a manager/owner. I would never go to any salon "managed" by you. I've been a dedicated patron at this salon for three years. Recently, I faced a challenging situation with Sadia Brangan, the manager. I felt disrespected during a heated argument initiated by her. When I 1st arrived i communicated the services I needed. Sadia said I did not specify it when I made the appointment. I've been going there 3 years and have always made my appointments clearly. While patiently waiting to get my eyebrows done , Sadia approached me, cautioning about how I spoke. I was taken aback by her aggressive demeanor. I said nothing wrong, only discussed the services I needed. She was in my face, making false accusations. It was quite bizarre behavior and highly unprofessional. The situation escalated into a distressing argument, and left me in tears. I even considered filing a police report. Unfortunately, this experience has led me to the decision of not returning to the salon. It's disheartening to be treated this way after years of being a loyal and trouble-free customer. I empathize with the staff who hugged and comforted me, apologizing for Sonia's treatment. I will miss them, but as an owner and manager, prioritizing dignity and care for customers should be essential. As someone of South Asian descent, I wondered if that played a role in the mistreatment. That's how she made me feel. read more

I'm from LI where threading places are a dime a dozen and range from $6-8. I'm extremely loyal to my go-to salons on the island and I was stressing about finding a new threading salon in the city that was still $10 or under - to the point where I was thinking about planning my trips back home to LI around my eyebrow growth. I am so lucky to have stumbled upon Thread. I randomly walked by, looked up the reviews on Yelp, turned around and went inside where I was greeted by Jeet. I love how clean and open this place is vs "the no-frills but gets the job done" places I'm used to on LI. No messy counters with lots of thread, aloe and tissue boxes. Everything is put away and hidden from view and I really liked that. One of my eyebrows is naturally thicker and rounder than the other. Would I love to have beautiful Lily Collins thick and symmetrical ones? Yes, but it's not gonna happen. So many times I've gone to salons where I've told the employee just clean it up and do NOT try even them out. My eyebrows are the definition of "eyebrows are cousins, not twins" meme. Despite my best efforts, my message is somehow is not conveyed to the employees and they go crazy trying to even out my eyebrows and that's why I hate going to new salons. This was not the case at all with Jeet at Thread. She listened to me and she really took the time to clean my eyebrows, maybe even more so than my usual ladies. My stray hairs go all the way down my eyelid (attractive!) and she had me hold my skin taut for a long time so she could really remove the strays. I appreciate it and the fact that she didn't try to upsell me on other services. Based on the other reviews, I paid and tipped in cash (I do that regardless though), and I got a loyalty card as well. I am so happy to have found a great eyebrow place in the city and fully plan on going back to Jeet. read more

Came here from a recommendation from a friend. Needed to get my brows done because it was not touched for a long time! Asked for Panna- I didn't make an appointment but didn't have to wait so I was in and out within 15 minutes! panna was great and cleaned my brows nicely- a little different from how my brows were shaped in the past but either way, I was pleased. read more

This is my go-to place to get my eyebrows threaded. Panna has a magical touch. I've never been to someone who is so gentle with my eyebrows and still makes them look amazing. I loved the Astor Place location with all my heart and was so sad to hear about it shutting down. I was so excited to learn that Panna would be staying at the FiDi location. Thread has also increased its prices more recently but just for the experience, I will shell out $12 plus a tip to go to Thread. Along with Panna's magical touch, she makes the whole experience super comfortable and remembers all the friends that I bring in as well. The store itself is very neat, cute and relaxing. read more

Soooo happy with the results and the customer service here! This is my third time here to thread my eyebrows. I told the lady my situation, she listens and did exactly what was best. I don't know anything about good brows so she was in charge and I am very happy with the outcome and her service. I am definitely coming back and next time I'm going to bring a friend with me to redeem the 50% discount for checking in on Yelp! Update: I forgot to mention that she also massaged my brow ridge and it was the best! I didn't have a lot of cash on me that day to tip so I gave her what I had, and told her I will be back next time to tip her more. She totally understands and was very cool about it! :) read more

This is my second time coming to Thread. Richa did an amazing job on my brows the first time and I requested her the second time for my body waxing. She is so sweet and careful. Really puts you at ease during the whole process. 10\10 always. I can't wait to go back for my next appointment already! read more

Walked in at about 5:15pm on a Monday and didn't wait long. My brow technician did a great job and also gave me a nice little massage with the aloe! read more

Thread - Threading Services Near Me - New York, New York

I got my eyebrows threaded here twice before. About two weeks ago I decided to get my eyebrows threaded and my underarms waxed plus my upper lip, I paid $31. My underarm from my right side was extremely red when I left the threading salon and I thought it was just a bit irritated from the waxing, a few days later it was still red and now I realized that she burned me so now I have a really dark mark which I'm not sure if it will go away. They also double dip which is very unsanitary. I have gotten my underarms waxed many times before and this has never happened, now my underarms look very dark which I hate. read more

Thread - That big patch was really red and raw before, now during the healing process it has turned dark. - Threading Services Near Me - New York, New York

Been twice before and during the pandemic. Very professional and friendly staff. Covid ready with masks and sanitisers. Clean and welcoming space. I walked in without the appointment and had no problem getting my eye brows tinted and threaded. Will continue visiting. read more

Thread has been my go to eyebrow spot since I moved to NYC back in 2017. I am very particular about my eyebrows and they always deliver! I've moved around a lot and tried different places near my apts, but nowhere else compares! I live in Queens now so Thread is completely out of my way, but I'm always willing to make the trip. 100% recommend! read more

Happy I stumbled across this spot. After moving downtown I had to find a new threading salon and this place gets the job done. With COVID-19 you have to make an appointment, which is great because you don't need to worry about waiting around with other people. Everyone was friendly, service was quick, and the salon is clean. read more

Super nice ladies! It was my first time getting my eyebrows threaded here. And it's been a while (couple years) since I got my eyebrows threaded at all. I'm a dude and they didn't seem to mind. Bonus points because I didn't cry from the pain this time. read more

UPDATE: second time I come, and even better than the last. Arti gave me the fastest waxing I've had, it took roughly 20 minutes for full-leg and bikini wax! And very well done. Last review: Very nice ladies, great waxing, chill music, and the best price-quality trade-off in the area! I'll definitely come back read more

I got a great eyebrow shaping here and this place has a steady stream of customers.

Visiting from out of town and nervous about getting my brows threaded by anyone other than my usual lady back home - UMA was amazing! Quick and brows have never looked better! Highly recommend read more

Bindu was great! $10 for etebrow thread. You can pay on card and tip in cash but tip mush be in cash or they charge you an extra $1. There was a wait even mid day on a Friday but only two people and it's worth it! read more

The best! Love getting my eyebrows threaded here. $10 and they give you aloe. Never had a bad experience.

I wrote a review here 3 years ago and haven't been back since I moved out of the area. Stopped by today and the ladies actually remembered me from when I used to go there. Saw some very familiar faces, friendly and courteous as usual. Got my eyebrows threaded quickly and painlessly (the best way possible)! Tired of all the different eyebrow threading salons in the city that have mixed results. Although they increased their prices from $8 to $10, I am still very pleased with Thread. Highly recommend. read more

I came here on my lunch hour with an eyebrow wax in mind. I rarely do my eyebrows, and when I would do them, I would thread them. However I've seen other peoples eyebrows that are waxed and they just seem sharper and neater than when people have their eyebrows threaded. The only reason why am taking away one star is because the woman "convinced" me to thread when I asked for a wax. The results were very good and I am very satisfied with my eyebrows; however, it kind of turns me off when a place tells me what I should get when I come in mind knowing what I want. The customer service was very good the place was clean it wasn't very full at all, but it was the middle of the day. It was $10 for an eyebrow thread which is standard and good for Manhattan prices. I will be returning on the rare occasion that I do my eyebrows again, and once I do my eyebrows 10 times, that one will be free! read more

I have been going to thread for YEARS and I will never go anywhere else. Panna is the esthetician I have been going to primarily but I've had wonderful experiences with all the estheticians during the times Panna was not there. Everyone is very professional, hygienic, timely, and meticulous. The salon itself is very clean and the prices are extremely fair. Definitely recommend coming here without any hesitations! I should also mention since Covid they've also changed their process to ensure as minimal contact as possible! read more

Nielam did a great job on my brows. I've been growing them out for a while but realized I couldn't pull off the thicker look I was hoping to. To my surprise, Nielam cleaned them up nicely and I was able to keep my brows nice and thick! I'm very particular on my brows, but I will be coming back to Thread whenever I need a shape up. read more

I honestly don't even want to write this review because I want to keep this secret all to myself. The prices are great, the people are pleasant and management is obviously doing something right. I have been coming here for a while now and have had the amazing opportunity to meet Arti (one of the estheticians). She is super talented when it comes to shaping and maintaining my eyebrows. I recently went to her for a brazilian and it came as no surprise that I was more than pleased (despite the unavoidable pain). Although Arti is my go-to, I've had my eyebrows threaded by the other estheticians and they did a nice job too. I am always greeted with a smile and they have the awesome stamp-as-you-go card that'll give you your 7th threading as a reward for being loyal. Also, I frequently see who I believe is the manager/owner and she is always pleasant and attentive to the customers. Needless to say, this place is super clean! Glad I found this place! :) read more

I love the professionalism of the staff & the cleanliness of this thread salon. If you're ever thinking about threading ANYTHING, you MUST go to Thread! You feel extremely clean afterwards. I go to this location regularly to thread my eyebrows. I'm in the chair & done within 5 minutes. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Decently priced & great locations! A MUST GO! read more

Solid 4. Place is very clean and ladies are sweet and polite. You have to make an appointment to be able to walk in. I came in for eye brows, they did a great job cleaning, styling shaping not so much. Will go back to try other techs and hoping to find the one. read more

super affordable & my brows consistently end up looking wonderful after my visits! Highly recommend! read more
