Thread n’ Wax Studio

Sonya is amazing! Extremely friendly. Very professional. She gets you in and out so fast. For any waxing you need shes the best! Also Brazilians are only $ 25 bucks and shes amazing! shes extremely flexible, and very knowledgeable.

Do not go here if you value your time money and self worth!!! I left this establishment in near tears from the disrespectful and unprofessional service. After dealing with this place for 2 years I made an appt at 1130 for my usual services. Once I arrived two girls followed behind to wait for a response from the salon and to no avail I left a voicemail saying I would return later thinking she may be busy with a client. As did the other two clients waiting to get serviced .At now 4 pm and all my errands for the day complete I returned to the salon still no answer! I’ve always had to knock or call to get service so I didn’t even imagine she could be ignoring me JUST BUSY. After waiting a bit I received a call from some man who is probably her father because we have spoke about her business over the years saying to take my business else where and to leave the establishment. What !!! Why didn’t someone say this at 1130 when I called a waste of my time and energy. I asked why and he stated that she could refuse service to anyone !!! But on what terms what did I do wrong? He responded I don’t know and clicked in my face. That place had been lacking in service for some time now and all the friends that I know use to go there have stopped I see why now!!! Horrible customer service, unprofessional and disservice to several people just in the few moments I was there!!! She’s cheap so I decided I would deal with the lack of service!!! But to get the run around all day than to be treated like I am not anything !!! I will never go back and neither should u there are several Indian style salons on the northside that are cleaner and not ran by a paranoid unprofessional business owner who didn’t have the decency to respect my time and for no obvious reason !!! I felt so embarrassed and disgusted at the same time. I work in the beauty industry and everyone will know to stay away from this place never in my life have I dealt with such inhumane treatment!!! Wasted hours of my time !! Save yourself the trouble !!

I tried to come here and get a quick threading on a weekday at 1130am. I called ahead and no one answered. I ended up paying to park and went there. The door was locked and it gave a number to call to buzz you in. I called the number, no one answered. I waited ten minutes, still no answer. They finally called me at 3pm. Don’t waste your time coming to this place. Horrible service.

Found this little gem just the other day literally steps from my building. Sonja was so nice and her work is amazing. Seriously. And she’s open late. Check her out!

Guys, Sonya is the sh*t. She was flexible when I called to change my appointment time. It looked like a no frills place from the outside, but once inside I felt so comfortable. I enjoyed talking with her, and it took my mind off the pain of going too long between waxes (also pain was minimal because she’s really skilled). A hidden gem that I am hesitant to praise only because I don’t want her popularity to make it hard to get an appointment :)

Sonya is simply wonderful! I went to Thread n’ Wax for the first time today and am thrilled to have found my new go-​to for eyebrow threading! Sonya does an amazing job and works quickly and painlessly. She is very good at her craft. Also, very reasonably priced. Will be going here exclusively from now on: D

Simply the best. I’ve tried several places throughout the city and none compare. My eyebrows always look amazing after I get them threaded. Cash only but so worth it!

Great place! Very reasonably priced! It’s a small wax place, relaxing atmosphere and Sonya is great! Highly recommend! I get my Brazilian waxes done here and she does a great job.

I am not going to any other place! Sonya is simply the best! Amazing service, great threading skills, and totally worth the price and even more! I think all men should have their eyebrows threaded, it’s brings out the sexiness in the eyes that anyone will notice.

Sonya is great and very friendly. Best waxing services for great prices. Small studio but services are worth the money spent. I have been going there for over an year now. She does amazing and consistent job on eyebrows.

Sonya is amazing!!! My first time there and I know for sure I will be going back whenever I need my eyebrows done. She took her time and made me feel at home and as if I’ve known her forever. She even made sure to get every little hair!

Sonya was so sweet and smiley! Very professional. Small yet cozy. I felt good energy from Sonya and her work space. I will definitely be going back to take care of my brows! I didn’t meet any other staff however, I’m sticking with Sonya! :)

The studio is a bit tricky to get in. You have to call the phone number in the window or be buzzed in. This is not a luxury spa but the studio is cute and the beautician is very friendly and has great technique. She recently raised her prices but I would rather spend $ 12 on a great job than spend $ 7 to have someone sharpie my eyebrows. Highly recommend.

I’ve been having my eyebrows threaded for years and this was the first time the beautician asked me what I wanted done before going to work. She actually wants to make sure she gives you what you want. Very meticulous, takes her time, and produced perfectly symmetrical arches. I’ll definitely be returning. Eyebrows are $ 12, which is typical. The beautician is really nice, very friendly, and very appreciative of business. She even hugged me on my way out.
The only reason I didn’t give five stars is because it’s CASH ONLY. I never carry cash so it’s a little inconvenient.

The beautician is very friendly, and very meticulous. She takes great care in giving you what you want. She got every single hair and then some. Least painful lip threading I’ve ever had. Only thing that took a star away from this review was that it cost $ 22 for eyebrows and lips. That’s pricey. I have a place that’s only a little further away that would do both for $ 14.
I would come back to try the Brazilian though.

I’ve been coming here consistently for over a year (maybe 2?) to get my eyebrows threaded. I love the location and the beautician. The studio itself is not large — single station — but warm and inviting. The beautician is amazing! To start, she is extremely kind. As others have said, she takes the time to get to know you. However, what’s more important, is that she’s THOROUGH! She does not rush and her threading technique is very gentle. I’m a very committed customer, so once I find someone I like, I’m hooked for life! She does recommend that you call and make appointments — which I’m guilty of not doing — but have not had any issues being serviced to date! As long as I have been a customer, prices changed once, but still affordable. The only drawback for me is that she does not accept credit cards.
I definitely recommend all those reading this to try her out!

I have a couple of friends who go there regularly and highly recommended it, so i decided to give it a try, plus a Brazilian is only $ 25 all year round!!! It is a small salon off Irving park and Broadway, the inside is no 5 star salon, but doesn’t need to be because the service is great and the pricing is awesome. The Beautician is very nice, friendly, and welcoming. She makes a point to get to know you, which I liked. The whole appointment took probably 20 minutes and was well done. I highly recommend it and I will for sure be going back, an Uptown and Chicago hidden gem.

I really like this spot, my go to for my eyebrows! I like to get threading because it last longer, and she is very gentle with it. My eyebrows always look great and she always does them the way I want. She provides an awesome experience, treating you like a client rather just another customer! I was recommended by a coworker and have been going to her every since, for a little over a year now.

I am a big fan of this studio. My friend just recommended it and I wasn’t sure because I use to travel all the way to Devon! After going to her for the first time, she reshaped my eyebrows and i felt like a new person!
The Beautician is extremely nice. The last time I went, I called her to let her know I was on my way and she called me back right away after she had finished with her client.
I really enjoy going there and I’m glad I made the switch! Prices are little higher than Devon however worth the detailed and time spent perfecting my eyebrow’s shape!

I wrote Thread n Wax first review which had 5 stars. After being a loyal customer for over a year I changed my mind. I have moved several times and have been taking travel time out of my schedule often. I have to say 1 out of 2 times she’s not there, late or closed without any reason. So i waste my time waiting or just leaving, spending extra money and priceless time on travel.
After religiously going there for over a year, after my last visit she called me and left a message saying that prices went up and I am assuming my tip wasn’t enough. I have been paying her same price for over a year and giving her 50% tip every single visit. She said it was her fault for not telling me the prices went up, but calling my phone and leaving a message is incredibly rude, after i have been a great loyal customer for a long long time.
In fact I went there today again, and surprise she wasn’t there again. She needs to change her hours and prices on the sign if she wants to be loyal to her own customers.
Enough is enough. As good as she is, I am a busy girl and i dont have time to deal with greedy, rude, non punctual people any longer.
