As a new arrival in London I was looking for an inexpensive solution for eyebrow and upper lip threading. After reading the reviews here, I decided to give this place a go. Whole threading experience was very quick. Can be reviewed as efficient (under 10 mins for eyebrow and upper lip) but definitely rough. The outcome is pretty alright visually but also ruched in looking inthe mirror to check. She pressed pretty hard on my eye while threading, i found myself thinking whether this could have negative consequences if she pushed a little harder. After the threading, my upper lip got red, kept burning and got swollen after and got broken on the second day (totally dry today on the third day and chapped). I always thread my upper lip, always gets a litte pinkish and then alright again. This was definitely too rough of a threat for facial skin.
If they fixed the roughtness issue, and tidy up the looks of the place a bit, I could give them a 5 star.
I didnt find the place particularly dirty but something was disturbing in looks.
One of the ladies who threaded the eyebrows of the lady before my had a cold and was attending her very close up. I found this disturbing at I entered and noticed. I didnt want to be sick on the first week at work because I wanted to look good!
So overall, below average experience. I also try to understnad how can they afford to charge so little.

This place is not for the faint of heart looking for a comfy luxurious salon experience. Its the no-​frills, dingy, kinda grimy, get to the point, quick and efficient threading experience. All of the above of which I appreciate, mainly because my peoples (this is an Indian owned salon in a primarily Bangladeshi neighborhood) are doing a great job for dirt cheap.
The place seems a bit short staffed (I’ve only ever seen a max of 2 employees on any given day) for the number of customers it handles. There seems to be a constant steady stream of customers on both weeknights and weekends alike. I’ve had to wait about 10 minutes the last couple of times I’ve walked in. They may play you by closing up shop earlier than their stated hours of operation (and refuse to serve you), so get there at least 30 min before closing time to avoid being disappointed!
Can’t hate on the fact that this place is cash only given their prices. £2 for an upper lip thread — don’t think you can find a better deal elsewhere in the area!

DO NOT GET YOUR EYEBROWS THREADED HERE.
After reading the reviews i thought i would give this place a go as i was going away and didnt have time to go my usual salon (usually pay £7 for eyebrow and lip at a salon in dalston and have never been disappointed). After waiting 25 minutes to get my eyebrows and lip threaded (there was only one lady working so i didnt mind waiting) I sat down in the chair and asked her to take as little off as possible, i simply just wanted them tidied up. She reassured me that wasnt a problem and started threading. She finished my right eyebrow in under 2 minutes, rushing to finish them as the lady she had just finished waxing was ready to pay. She quickly took her payment and came back to finish my eyebrows. My eyebrows took about 5 minutes in total. They were uneven (my left eyebrow arch was now a lot higher than the right), one eyebrow was a lot thinner and shorter than the other (not sure why she touched the length), and she had taken a large chunk out of the inner corner of my right eyebrow.
Worst eyebrow threading experience ever. Im not usually one to complain and considering the price i wasnt expecting the best eyebrow threading job in the world but I wouldnt have waited or even gone had i of known she was going to be so careless and rushed.

I went and got my eyebrows threaded here on Saturday after reading the reviews on here. £3 and a good job — can’t say fairer than that. No complaints.

I went for a full body massage and was greeted by a glum lady who directed me to a back room with a curtain– no door. I was directed to undress, and she stood there watching me! I asked if she could actually close the curtain, as was left partially open. No nice music in the background, just the sound of staff chatting & people walking past. No candles or dimmed lights, just the harsh neons the whole time.
It was uncomfortable on the bed, as there was no hole to put your face, instead just a pillow. I therefore had to either keep by head straight, but squish my nose on the pillow, or have my neck on the side. I mentioned this at the time, but there was a language barrier. The woman must have had a cold, as kept sniffing in deeply every minute or so. When I turned onto my back, I saw that the curtain was open again. I’m not particularly prude, but this certainly wasn’t relaxing lying there almost naked with people wander past.
When it was done, I mentioned the uncomfortable bed again. She then took the pillow away, to reveal a proper massage bed with the face hole!!! What!
2 days later, I broke out in large, horrendous spots on my back, arms and legs– wherever the oil went. I’ve NEVER had spots like that in my lift nor have allergies. It took over 2 weeks to clear and I was left with scars from the larger spots.
The shop was dirty, with hair everywhere (even though no clients were in there when I arrived). I would never go there again and cant believe they have passed any health inspection. Avoid if you value your skin & don’t want to be viewed by strangers whilst nude, or sniffed on and massaged by someone with a heavy cold!

Cheap salon, only £3 for eyebrow threading and £2 for upper lip. Staff’s English is not that good, and difficult to understand. Tried this for the first time today, and will probably check out one of the other salons next time. Nonetheless, very quick and no appointments necessary.

£5 for eyebrows and upper lip?! I can’t even get that back in the states! The lady who did my eyebrows created the perfect arch and cleaned them up so nicely. They’re fast and efficient definitely worth the little money it costs!

I went there to get my eyebrows threaded — just walked in and only had to wait 2 – 3 min. Overall I would say this place is pretty good for the price (£3 for eyebrows!). I just asked to get my eyebrows cleaned up, no specific request to reshape my arch or anything but the lady did a pretty good job. It didn’t hurt and it was all over pretty quickly. The place looked decently clean. Would definitely go back for another cheap, quick and standard eyebrow thread.

eyebrow threading for 3 quid! kept my shape and was super fast… this place is legit

My eyebrows need really good and frequent threading due to its fast growing, thickness and dark colour. So I was looking for high quality low cost threading and I anticipated a hard time finding just the right place. How wrong was I! I got it right on my first visit to this nice place. They have all I was looking for and they also work fast!

Simple, straight forward and friendly service. The lady from Nepal named Tripoli or Tivoli or something similar took her sweet time perfecting my eyebrow threading. Its not good if you are in a rush but I make it a point to allocate plentiful time going for my brows hence I appreciated her efforts. For £3, I am a fan!

Fast and inexpensive, but I’ll never go back! I was in and out in less than 10 mins for a fiver, had my eyebrows and upper lip threaded. She was quite rough and there was a bit of a language barrier, but gave me great shape. Within 36 hours, however, my eyebrow line and upper lip were COMPLETELY BROKEN OUT. I’ve been threading for years and this is the first time I’ve ever had a reaction. Needless to say, I won’t be returning and I wouldn’t recommend to a friend.

Fast, good, and inexpensive. She had me in the chair for full face threading and did a wonderful job. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for good threading for cheap! They also do bikini wax!

After Reading Katherin B’s Review on this joint I thought I would catch a bus and head on over. I walked right in, they through me in the chair and got to work. I was looking a little rough so the lady really had to work at my face; but after 10 minutes. 5 pounds — 3 pounds for ladies 5 for gents. I had the best looking threading work I have ever had! They were quick, clean and friendly. A bit of a language barrier but not much. Its not a small talk place, all business. Friendly but strictly business!

£3 for eyebrow threading? Hells yea!!! And she was friendly and did a good job too! I know where I am coming from here on out. Walked in with bushy, unkempt brows and no appointment, walked out 5 minutes later only £3 poorer and with beauteous, shapely forehead hair. What more could a girl (on a budget) want?
