The staff is fabulous also. Perfect spot to treat yourself. Very convenient to the R and M train. Steinway Subway read more

Unique Beauty Salon - Address, Hours and Services offered on this post card. Phone number too. - Eyelash Service Near Me - Astoria, New York

They charged me $4 to remove 1-2 hairs (not joking at all) from my unibrow I would not return of course I paid it but it seemed greedy and I regretted leaving a tip but hey, hope it was worth it. And, they didn't even get all the unibrow hairs so what did I really pay $4 for. Customer service? 1/5 on this particular day **other than that I have personally recommended many girls to go here to get their brows done. I personally no longer get my brows done but it's a fairly cheap service I think $5-6 some girls are certainly better than others. The place itself seems well kept and sanitary. I have never tried any service other than threading here. read more

Unique Beauty Salon - My "unibrow" - Eyelash Service Near Me - Astoria, New York

I've been coming to Unique Beauty Salon for my eyebrow and lip threadings and Brazilian waxes for over 10 years now. I've tried plenty of other places in the area that offer the same services, but none of them compare to the job well done that Unique does for me. The salon is clean and proper hygiene is always practiced - no double dipping here. All the staff members are friendly and make you feel welcome and comfortable, which is a serious accomplishment considering the fact that they're ripping your body hair out in the process. This salon does get busy at times especially during the weekend, so if you don't have time to wait call ahead to make an appointment. read more

I booked an appointment and went into the salon on a Saturday. I mentioned to them that I booked the 3 eyelash extension option. They asked if I wanted to consider the one eyelash extension per lash and I decided to do that instead. They confirmed which length I wanted which was the 10 mm. During the whole process, my eyes felt like they were burning. After 40 minutes, the lash technician said she finished putting on the extensions which I thought was odd since it typically takes an hour. I looked into the mirror and realized my eyelashes looked really full. I told them that it was burning. I confirmed with them that they put one extension per eyelash. They said it was normal and said it was one extension per eyelash except for the corner of my eyes (she said the corners have 3 extensions per eyelash)... I was a little skeptical but they convinced me it was one extension per eyelash. My eyelashes felt SO stiff, full, and uncomfortable. I paid them and gave tip... When I got home later that day, I looked at a lash that fell. I realized that they put 6 extensions onto each of my eyelashes... You can tell a huge chunk fell off my lashes already a few hours later and a day later... I am so disappointed with them because they should have just told me that they are unable to provide the services I paid for or should not have suggested the one lash extension per eyelash option... read more

On a tight schedule this weekend, I wanted a quick facial and did not have time to go to my usual spot, Femina in Jackson Heights. I stopped in and got my eyebrows threaded and the gold facial. Just ten dollars more than their basic facial, the jour long treatment came complete with a private room, full steam, extractions, multilayered mask and massage. It was such a famtastic experience for such a great price. The service was top notch and the beauticians were very pleasant. The young lady who did my facial was excellent. I will be back soon for my next self care day read more

The ladies here are always so welcoming and kind! They do amazing work and are very thorough! Been a client for years and always recommend them! My lashes and brows are always on point thanks to them! read more

Unique Beauty Salon - Eyebrow threading - Eyelash Service Near Me - Astoria, New York

(WARNING) please avoid ! my eyes are burning and damaged, I have no lashes on, and I did not get a refund. The lady who did my lashes could not speak a word of English, so when I told her my eyes were burning she couldn't understand what I'm saying. The lashes were mostly glued to my lids and to each other Which made my eyes burn so bad! At some point she spilled glue all over my lid and had to peel it off my eyelid when dried! The next day I went back for them to remove the lashes and give me a refund, which did not happen. They told me I can go back for another set but honestly i don't wanna go back. I'm also concerned about the hygiene as my eyes are still burning after they removed the lashes. Im afraid I got some kind of infection. No gloves and probably reused brushes read more

Don't get your lashes done here. Very disappointed with my eyelashes. They're super itchy. I've gotten my lashes done all over NYC and I've never experienced this. 3 days in and they're falling out. On tops of the crappy job, the woman used that time to tell me about all the physical assaults she's gone through and even a miscarriage. I'm all for talking to someone to work through your issues but wrong place, wrong time. I felt trapped on the table paying to listen to someone problems. I went back to try to get them removed but they couldn't accommodate my schedule. I won't be going back. A complete waste of $100. I wish I could get my money back. read more

Unique Beauty Salon - Eye lashes fall out after 3 days - Eyelash Service Near Me - Astoria, New York

Comfortable smooth clean! Kairia did my lashes and I enjoyed it very much!!! The ladies were so kind!

I don't write reviews often but this place is truly incredible and if you're going elsewhere for eyebrows and facials in Astoria you're missing out on the best! Sunita has been doing my eyebrow threading, tinting, lip waxing, and facials at Unique for the past two years and I can't say enough good things. The salon is impeccably clean, the music is soothing, and everyone who works there is kind and professional. Sunita is extremely detailed and really listens when it comes to what I want with my eyebrows (I am indecisive about how I like them). The facials that I have gotten at Unique really helped to heal my acne prone skin. They use high quality products and prices are very affordable. Overall, excellent! read more

I've literally had a plethora of experiences with lashes in NYC. I've had the super cheap $25 ones that leave me looking ghetto; I've had the super expensive $150 that you barely notice & take F O R E V E R to have applied. This place is the greatest value in the city-- technicians are very skilled, lashes do not cost per lash (they fill them until it looks right for you), they are efficient with their time, and most importantly the price is right! I'm moving back into manhattan next month but I know I will definitely be commuting to queens for this service! You can't beat it. So many compliments from coworkers & friends. It feels good to once and for all have my lashes on fleek ‍ read more

The woman there actually SLAYED my eyebrows Would highly recommend. No wait time but I went Early on a Sunday morning at around 10:30 AM. She did offer me to get my eyelash extension but I felt like $80 was a little bit too much especially since I can go to the Bronx and get it done for $25 read more

BE CAREFUL GIRLS!!!!! I got BLEPHARITIS / INFLAMMATION after I did eyelash extension in unique beauty salon. I went back to Unique beauty salon, they kept shirking the responsibility and telling me that I got Blepharitis because I had eye allergy and my eyelid got sensitive. But I have NEVER had eye allergy ever Before! My eyelid got swollen right a day after I did eyelash extension here. When I went back to Unique Beauty Salon, they answered me if CLIENTS get inflammation, it's NOT their responsibility. And Blepharitis cause my eyes to itch, burn, all uncomfortable feeling everyday. I go to work everyday with my swollen eyes, and feel very embarrassed when I talk to my coworkers. Though unquiet beauty salon return me eyelash extension cost with inconsiderate attitude, but I still need to pay extra medical fee, and bearing uncomfortable feelings. Girls, please think TWICE before you do eyelash extension! read more

Poorly Done. She could've did a way better job for the money they expect you to spend. This is my lashes after two days. The first time was OKAY, the second time they redeemed themselves a little and the third time was a waste of my money & my time. I was hoping I found a place but I guess I didn't...... They do great eyebrows tho but for lashes I will find somewhere else. read more

My experience here is with Julie. The first time I came in here was for my first original full set of lashes. She did an amazing job, was reasonably priced and it had a great natural look. The only aftercare advice she gave me was to not let water hit my lashes directly. Did not tell me when I need to come back in for a touch up (from what I found through online research, you can do your touch ups every 3-4 weeks) Anyways, I make an appointment for 4 weeks later at 2pm along with my friend. Her appointment is 1pm so I come in at 2pm. They tell me my appointment was for 6pm and I just had to wait until they had an opening. I ended up waiting about an hour because of their mistake. Julie comes out and immediately scolds me for waiting too long to get my lashes touched up. She says because I waited too long it'll take her a whole hour to do my touch up (the touch up only ended up taking 25 minutes) During the touch up she continues to scold me about messing up my appointment time. I tell her i called a week ago and said 2pm. Her response "you must've said 6pm" like ok Julie I know what I said. Anyways she ends up doing a slop job and put more eyelashes on one eye and they are falling out so quickly(will be attaching a photo). I talked to my friend after and she had the same experience of julie scolding her during the entire appointment. We will definitely not be coming back due to the poor customer service and I'll be going to a new place to get my eyelashes fixed. read more

Unique Beauty Salon - My touch up with Julie. Did a messy job and put way more lashes on one eye. - Eyelash Service Near Me - Astoria, New York

I got the volume lashes which, to be honest, seemed a little excessive. I'm probably going to go with the natural lashes instead which are $80. The volume lashes are $100. My first time went really well and I liked the look so much. Because it was so rainy in NYC, about 15 lashes fell out my first day. I called and let Julie know and she agreed to fix them for free. I'm really grateful for the service they provide and look forward to continuing my this relationship read more

Found this place through yelp and the reviews were great. The yelpers did not let me down! I wanted to get fake eyelashes done and when I called for prices and appointment, they were accomodating. When I got there, I was taken straight away and I had Jeet. She answered all my questions about the lashes & she was prompt. One hour later, I was delighted to see my new lashes!!!! They recommend a fill in every 2 weeks. I will definitely be back!! read more

I got my lashes done by JEET I love them there just how I wanted them natural and fit my face and hair. Nothing bad to say, would recommend! Thank you! Also Follow my Instagram @ashley.arellano_ read more

Been coming to this place for about 5 years never once had a bad experience sunita makes you feel loved and welcomed each & every visit. They move fast & make sure you are satisfied before you leave the chair or waxing bed. Recently moved to Whitestone and still come to Astoria just for them! Sunita is my go to but they all are amazing. Try it out you'll love it there !!! read more

Scheduled a last minute appointment l, when you go in, check if they'll be able to start on time or how long the wait will be if you have other errands to run. My first time ever getting lash extensions and had an overall great experience. They were so gentle I took a nap, not uncomfortable. I get nothing but compliments on my lashes, I feel like I exist in a Snapchat filter, and they're not too over-the-top. I followed their instructions to care fir them, it's been 2-3 days since I've gotten them done and have only had a single lash fallout. Really great service for a great price. read more

As a first timer getting eye lashes, I didn't know what to expect. I'm not a girly type of person because I didn't have time in the past to pamper myself but I felt like today was the day. I made my appointment via Yelp and response was very quick. I was able to get pricing and they were very flexible with time slots. I got the time I needed. When I arrived, Sami was the person who helped me throughout the whole process. She was perfect! Very informative, so helpful and asked me what I wanted and listened. We went over photos together. OH I also want to add that when I first arrived, she knew exactly who I was when I mentioned I had an appointment. And she knew what I came there for. That tiny experience made me realize how they make it personal and how they prepare. So I got the 3D lashes and it's not the type where they put the white paper under your eyelids, you keep your eyes open and look down. Pretty easy process for a beginner like me. It's been 3 days since and my lashes still look VERY good. No itchiness or irritation or anything! I think this is be a routine for me I'm obsessed now read more

I love love love the henna I got here. I've gotten so many compliments on them since I came back to Arizona. I can't wait to show off the one on my leg, too!

Updated 8/6/19 CONS: General *Pricing- Disappointed henna prices are all over the place. Quoted $20 for content/design done previously for $11 (and less) and same costs only $8 @Gulzaar Beauty Salon in Jackson Heights. *Professionalism- All customers are sadly NOT treated equal. They have the favorites who get much better treatment, more experienced resources, higher quality service, & better prices. Then other non-VIP customers are dissed by the staff and often I've overheard the personnel thoroughly disrespect and tease customers in their absence / behind their backs.. very unprofessional & discriminatory. Specific Services *Facial- quality is hit or miss. Once a ceramic bowl was dropped on my face - no refund or discount. *Massage- quality is very hit or miss. Been rushed through my massages and interrupted in the massage room by staff when you're really trying to relax. *Eyelash extensions- bad experience both times, once my eyes were tearing & second time was on a cruise and had huge gaps by day 1 though I was VERY careful to follow instructions - no refund/discount. (Note- I was dismissively told maybe it was due to swimming but I do not put my head in the water so as to avoid messing up my hair & skin) *Henna- quality is very hit or miss. Also, see above on pricing. PROS: *Threading (face)- generally (not consistently) okay. For example, once an entire patch was missed on my face, very embarrassing until I could get back in to get it fixed since I had plans all weekend. I do like that full face service comes with a face mask afterward. *Waxing (face, arms, legs)- done relatively well. Yet note, be careful to ask about pricing for different waxes as they will use the more expensive one without telling you and then charge you the higher price. read more

I forced my father to thread and tint his eye brows before my wedding....horrible daughter? AWESOME DAUGHTER! MY father has received so many compliments and the majority just being something about you looks so much younger!

Low and behold - I got the most amazing brow clean up. read more

This place is hands down the best waxing spot in Astoria. Their best kept secret is their chocolate wax which is incredible. Ask for Sumita she is fast and makes it painless.

I was running errands on Steinway and desperately needed my brows done so I popped into unique and I've been a regular Ever since that day ... The ladies are so nice , professional and caring . I have to admit this is the best my eyebrows have ever looked , she got the shape and arch perfect I don't even have to use makeup anymore on them !!! So happy !! I also have done waxing here (chocolate wax) very cool and supposedly pain free (yeah right lol ) but does the job ,nice n smooth .. Silky smooth lol Also have done a facial and wow my skin was rejuvenated , glowing and gorgeous , took about an hour but it was so relaxing I was literally light headed when I finally got up . Last but not least Sweety did my lashes (mink lashes ) they lasted for about 5 weeks and looked amazing and natural , that also took about an hour ugh I hate sitting for so long but hey I like my lashes lol Clean , professional and great service , Glad I found this place :) Thank you ladies read more

EDIT: The lashes did not last long at all. At only 8 days later, they are all gone. They looked good walking out of the salon, but for such a short time the cost makes little sense. Original post: Listen. If you want to lol like a real-life Snapchat filter, you NEED to come here and book an appointment with Sibi as soon as possible. This was my first extension process, so I was a bit nervous. I needed a clean and good and reasonably-priced place to do eyelash extensions for me. No eye irritation or infections for me. I called and asked Sweetie (the nicest Auntie) over the phone about a walk-in appointment, and she called back and worked out a good time for me. Then she left me in Sibi's capable hands. Sibi came, explained the available styles, talked over what would work best for me (I wanted something very natural so she recommended the Nova set), and then cleaned my eyes and got to it. It was a very relaxing process, just lie down, close your eyes and dream. You can totally fall asleep, in fact she said I could snore lol. Before I knew it, the application was over and and she was wishing me luck with school and all. So come here, and get Sibi to do your lashes! Also, the salon is cute and cozy and clean. Ignore the sad picture and admire the lashes lol. I'll try to update how they hold up. read more

This place gets no stars! This is the second time I have gone there for waxing service. How dare she tells me that my legs were fully waxed, when I saw hair. She also told me that I didn't need a full wax and told me a few times I shaved my legs. I pay for a service, I expect quality and not to have to tell them that they missed a spot. I will not be returning ever again to their claustrophobic tiny room. Spend money elsewhere. read more

This is my third time getting my lashes done, FIRST time here at Unique beauty salon. I came here on Saturday desperately bc my place was all booked. Sweetie (I believe the owner) was absolutely welcoming & down to earth. I was very happy with the service & the lady who did my lashes was pretty sweet as well! They said an hour for lashes but she took 2 hours and 30 minutes. I left the salon happy regardless of the long hours -- lashes started to fall off. Not a happy camper. Lashes kept falling off the next day. I called and explained -- Sweetie said to please come in and she'd be more than happy to fix them with another lady. | Just left the place. I'm happy. G is the lady who did my lashes. In 2 weeks, I'll make sure to go to her and give her a nice tip. read more

I wouldn't go here for eyelash extensions. I went in for a refill from eyelashes I got from another specialized eyelash tech and my lashes look messy. The lady who did mine didn't take off the outgrown one and put the new lashes on top . So they look really messy. I feel bad writing a poor Review because they do amazing eyebrows but I'm very disappointed in my lashes. And I know I'm gonna always be looking at them and regretting my decision to choose this salon. They overall look really messy. I prefer a more Put together look read more

I cannot day enough good things about this place. They are literally the best lash and brow salon I've been to period and trust me I've been to ALOT. Recently I had a very bad experience with a different lash salon that I had purchased through Groupon (for 120pcs mink lashes) and the lady put maybe 30-40pcs max with a lot of gaps. It started to fall off same day and the pic below is of Day 1. Not to mention she falsely advertised and put on synthetic instead of mink. Now I'm going to Europe for vacation so I urgently asked unique beauty salon to fill them in to give it more volume and they gave me an appointment right away and did them flawlessly with high quality mink lashes. I'm SO grateful and will never go anywhere else. I have attached pics of before and after. Thank you !!!! read more

I just moved to the area and decided to make this my go to eye threading salon for the past 5 months. Every time I leave I always love my eyebrows so I give that service 5 stars however, today I tried the eye lash extentions since they always ask me where I go and how they have a girl there so I said ok. My appointment was at 12:30 I tried to make it earlier but they were booked. I got a call from them around 11 that day to confirm I was still coming and I said yes ! When I got there at exactly 12:30 I was told to give them a few minutes ... that few minutes turned Into 35 min and only then when I said something like hey how long is the wait because I have work ... they then said oh ok now we will take off your previous lashes ... I said ok. So I'm laying there and the woman was very nice however the removal burned me and I'm not used to this because this is not my first time getting lashes. She kindly led me to the bathroom while my eyes were closed and it was a little weird but I washed whatever it was off and then I was fine. FYI I was NOT told the removal that burned me was going to be an extra 10 dollars which I didn't appreciate. I've never paid for removal if I was getting new lashes. The girl that did my lashes was okay... but to be honest I didn't feel as welcomed and I felt like she didn't have everything prepared. I was in a rush already because appointment time was not honored. So I got there at 12:30 and was done by 2:40 ... I don't think I'll return here. I do like the way they did my eye lashes but I'm not 100 percent happy because I asked for dramatic and I got more of a natural look. I feel ripped off by the service and it ruined my whole day because of the time waiting I was late for work and had to rush which I didn't want to do on my Sunday afternoon ! I'll prob stick to my original place from now on. read more

Jeet is that eyelash chic. Prices are on point as well as the quality of application and time. They always call me the day before my appointment and send me a text to remind me. What more can we ask for?! The owner shared his cup of coffee with me while I waited and talked to me so I wasn't bored. Thanked me for being patient for waiting and the other clients at the time were very social which made my long wait pleasant. I've been late before and they've worked with me so I know that things happen. It's how you handle it that counts. The truth is I go here to get my lashes because Jeet is one of the absolute best I've found. Not to mention the price point for her quality application is very much worth it. In addition, big shout out to Sunita! She is an eyebrow master. I hope that they learn how to do eyebrow lamination because that's something I think Sunita would conquer and I'd love for her to laminate my brows. I'm always a happy client when I leave Unique Beauty Salon. I highly recommend them! read more
