A1 Indian Beauty Parlor

I really like how Chunnee (I hope I spelled her name right, if not I am sorry) does my eyebrows. She makes my eyebrows look so beautiful, and defines my natural arch. I get so many compliments. I also like how there is a sign-​in sheet so they know who is next. I went to parlors without sign in sheets and it pissed me off how people that would come after me would get their turn before I would. Really organized and clean place :) And the price is very reasonable too $ 5! :)

I decided to checked out this place on a whim, and I honestly can say that I’m very glad I did. The place was clean, service was fast, and my eyebrows turned out beautifully. I usually go to Jamal or Amarajeet on the east side to get my eyebrows done, but I’ve always disliked having to make an appointment to get my eyebrows done. So I went on Unilocal & found this place!

Never again. I went in and was seated right away I told the lady that I had light hairs at the top of my brow to leave them because they made my arch and she said «okay I’ll try». I left with such horrible eyebrows and a bald spot where I told her to leave the hairs. NEVER EVER AGAIN.

Never have I let another person touch my eyebrows until I came here. I’m always worried they’d make them way too thin or a weird shape, so I have always done them myself.
For me to walk in here was very random but figured I needed my brows shaped and I was too lazy to do it myself. I had a date that night so brows definitely needed to be done. For $ 5 I figured I’d risk it.
With a few girls in front of me it only took 5 mins or so to get me in a chair.
I was so nervous it would hurt, but there was no pain at all. In and out in less than 10 minutes with some awesome looking brows, yay!
I did not like the fact that I had to go home and trim up some lengthy hairs that anyone should have been able to notice were way out of place. Otherwise it was great I’ll be back next time I need a threading.

The only reason i am giving this place two stars is that the price is good and the final result is acceptable. For a quick service without having to make an appointment, this is a good place. However, if customer service and attitude are important to you, like they are to me, this is not a place for you. They have a very cold attitude towards the customer, and can get downright rude at times. And on my last visit, they lied to me. This is not what I expect from a professional service provider. If you make a mistake, admit it and move on. Don’t tell a see-​through lie to a customer, just to appease your ego. I felt very bad and don’t care about going back there. I would rather pay a little extra for a better attitude, than having my afternoon ruined on account of 10 minutes spent in that place.

Very quick. In and out in 10min. Got my eyebrow & upper lip done. Price isn’t too bad. My first time here, I’m impressed enough to come back again IF I can’t find another place. I did NOT like how the girl that did my eyebrows acted, as if she knew better than I concerning MY eyebrow shape. She thinned out my eyebrows a LOT and I’m uncomfortable with it.
Update: My eyebrows are growing back like a jungle. I definitely need to get them done again, but not here.

Expensive and okay service. I did not see any service here. They were plucking hair as if they are hammering a toy and not a human. Very lousy and non-​courteous crew.

My go to place due to cheap price, good service, and no appointments needed. I can always walk in and get my eyebrows down without waiting for anything more than 5 – 10 minutes. It is always clean and the ladies that work there are usually very friendly. They always give me the brows I want; never too thin, never too sharp. $ 5 for eyebrows and $ 5 for upper lip is nothing I can complain about. I live in the east bay area but if I’m ever around the south bay for the day and need a quick and reliable brow clean up, I always head here.

Horrible experience. This place seriously has hygiene issue. I just moved in the area so was looking for a place to get threading and waxing done. I called them ahead of time and went there. They were pretty empty when I arrived there. The waxing room floor was all sticky so base of my shoes was all sticky. The whole time the women who was doing waxing for me, kept on talking to the other employees in other rooms while waxing. After she finished my waxing, she did my threading in the front room… again the talking didn’t stop.
After paying and tipping as I was leaving I noticed lots of red bumps on both of my arms. I get waxing done all the time and never had any issues. I have very smooth skin normally so when I saw the bumps I was horrified. I told the women who did my waxing but she and other two women who came out kept saying that some people have sensitive skin. I told them that I never had this problem in the past with waxing ever. I think they seriously have hygiene issues.
I applied ice to the bumps when I got back home but the bumps has not reduced as yet.
I am never going back.

Love this place! I always get lucky to drop in right at the slowest point but they are always busy so be prepared to wait or make a appointment. .but they are friendly and awesome at what they do!

I was in the area and desperately needed my brows done so my friend took me here. Not only was it relatively cheap ($ 10) for eyebrow and upper lip, she was fast, efficient, and relatively painless. She also gave me advice about my eyebrows as one was thinner than the other so she strategically left a few hairs to make it even when it grew, which was great as most salons I’ve been to just follow the old shape and try to get you out as fast as possible. Will definitely be coming back again

Unfortunately, I will never be coming here again.
I used to be a frequent customer here because of the convenience being close to home, the employees being fast, and the $ 5 threading.
I went in last week for the usual quick eyebrow thread. I got there at 1:30, hoping to get out no later than 1:45 because of a makeup appointment. I kindly told the employees what I was on a strict time schedule because I was getting ready for my college graduation for that evening. Within five minutes, my eyebrows were threaded beautifully.
However, processing the payment was too difficult for them. I didn’t have cash so I paid with a debit card. Their credit payment method was not working so they said «give us five minutes to fix it.» I asked nicely how long it’s going to really take because I have an appointment at 2:15. They said only 5 minutes… They spent 25 MINUTES calling around. I was so angry that they couldn’t let just $ 5 go! They never bothered apologizing, nor offer an inconvenience credit.
This incident supports that they do not care about their customer. I will not be coming here again.

This is my go-​to place for eyebrows. All the ladies do a very good job at shaping your eyebrows and picking up any extra hairs when you ask them. I also have a naturally good eyebrow shape, so I very rarely have problems when it comes to threading. They recently increased the price of upper lip threading by $ 1, but it’s nothing to complain about.
The only complaint I had is that they say they don’t take advance appointments but they do let people who call in go in front of you (I once came on a busy day and asked if I could come back the next day at a particular time, and they’d let 2 – 3 people go in front of me because they «called». They said they had no appointments and it was just walk in.)

I’m posting this on behalf of my mother. My mom went in to get a facial. She llet the lady know ahead of time that my blackheads needed to be extracted everywhere on my face and she agreed. When they finished, my mom noticed that she only extracted the blackheads on her nose. When she called her out on it, the lady said «I took all the blackheads out, you didn’t notice?» But she definitely only took them out on my mom’s nose. She couldn’t even look at my mom in the face after she called her out because she knew she was lying. This was a waste of 45 $ and would never recommend them for facials.

My friend recommended this place to me and I went on a Wednesday afternoon, around 5pm.
As I have read other Unilocal posts, I signed my name on the clipboard but a lady told me to sit in the chair. There was no wait but 3 workers. They were all speaking to each other and I felt, as a customer, not noticed at all. The lady threaded my eyebrows in less than 3 minutes, while still talking to the other employees. She stopped talking to tell me to hold my eyelid and brow but that was it. She didnt try to talk to me at all, also didnt even say hi in the beginning! My brows turned out cleaner, but it was still very ugly. The shape is too thick on the ends and my brow went from thin to thick, which should be the other way around because your tail is supposed to be thin. I paid her $ 5 with a $ 2 tip that she did not deserve and left. She said no thank you, no goodbye, and didnt even look at me when I handed her the tip and said thanks. She just kept talking to her coworker.
$ 5 is cheap, but the quality is cheap and the customer service is horrible. I guess you get what you pay for. Never coming here again. RIP Brows :-(

My boyfriend’s sister and I were looking for a place for full-​face threading. This location was one of the places we came across, and they were the nicest [over the phone] than all the other places I called.
When we arrived, they weren’t busy and started on my boyfriend’s sister immediately; I was able to take a seat soon after. They are very friendly & clean. We weren’t there for too long, and they did a great job with the threading. $ 23 for full-​face, which includes eyebrows.
I would definitely come back! The only thing I would have to consider is the time of day to come by because the parking is pretty limited sometimes (small lot, but there is also parking in the back of the building) when all the businesses around get really busy.

Get your eyebrows threaded with caution!
I gave this place 2 tries since the price is very reasonable. $ 5 to get your eyebrows threaded is too good to be true but you get what you pay for.
First bad experience The lady didn’t even thread properly. I still have noticeable hair left so I told her to clean it up a little more. So, she did but she cleaned it up A LOT more. To the point where my left eyebrows was thinner than my right. Obviously, she doesn’t care about how she threads people’s eyebrows…
Second bad experience: I don’t know why I gave this place a second try… The older lady always did my eyebrows to my liking so I specifically went to her. Huge mistake. She made my right eyebrows SHORTER than my left. So I came out with 2 eyebrows looking different from one another. You can imagine how furious I was since on point eyebrows are everything to a lady.
Never ever coming back. They are inconsistent and unprofessional. Now,
I have to wait for my eyebrows to grow back out evenly…
So like I stated above: Go With Caution!
If only I can give them 0 stars.

Tip: They don’t have a designated receptionist and the ladies up front usually have thread in their mouth so just walk up to the counter and sign your name on their sheet as well as the service you’d like done. I’m sure they take appointments (especially for mehndi and facials), but threading is so quick the walk-​ins are no big deal.
There are two ladies that thread; I’ve gone to both and they both have done a great job. They are clean and professional.
For eyebrows, if you’ve never gone to them before or they don’t recognize you, they usually ask you how you want them done, thick or thin. They work quickly and are also very responsive if you ask them to do something different. Lastly, if they can’t do what you ask, they’ll tell you!
I brought my best friend here after a bad wax that left her brows oddly shaped and uneven. She said she prefers thick, so they took off as little hair as possible to get her brows to match. Then they stopped to tell her they could make it more even still, but only if she wanted thinner brows. She said no, so they kindly suggested she come back in a few weeks when they’ve grown out again.
I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone! Even if I don’t need anything done, I’ve brought several of my friends here just because that’s how great they are.
This is definitely my go-​to place to get my eyebrows done for both the price and the service. The only down side for me is that they are cash-​only, but since they’ve got great prices, it’s really not that much of a hassle to find $ 5 to get your brows done.

Location:
This place is located next to Yogurtland.
Service:
When I walked in, I looked around for someone that would greet and help me out. Instead, a lady employee passing by said hi, and walked away. I saw a clipboard on the counter so I proceeded to write my name down for eyebrows. The lady came back and told me to take a seat and starting threading. The only words out of her mouth were «hold your brow.» Once she finished, she gave me a mirror to check it out, and I paid $ 5 at the counter and left.
If you’re looking for a friendly environment with great customer service and someone to make small talk with, you’ve come to the wrong place. Basically you get in and get out. It’s all very fast and efficient, and I don’t mind!
My eyebrows look shaped and trimmed, and I’m very pleased with them!

I usually go to Kamal up the street in the Evergreen area, but after my boyfriend pointed out that eyebrow threading shouldn’t cost $ 10, I decided to give this place a try since it’s only $ 5 for eyebrows!!! Went in today with my boyfriend and both of us got our eyebrows threaded, hehe. There was no one ahead of us, so it was pretty quick and we were out of there in under 10 minutes!
I don’t know the lady’s name who threaded our brows, but she did a really good job in cleaning up my little hairs and she reshaped my eyebrows (in which one was kind of messed up from my last threading session –_​_​_​-​). My boyfriend’s eyebrows are looking pretty awesome too, haha!
*EDIT 02÷18÷15
They do accept card! I noticed the little VISA sign on their window even though they have a placard that says «CASH ONLY», so yes to all of my non-​cash carrying friends, you may use your cards! :-)
