Perfect Brows

I usually come here for a Brazilian or to get my eyebrows threaded. I’ve never had a bad experience (during the Brazilian sometimes she leaves a bunch of hair, but that’s it. Generally no irritation in that area). Last week I went to get my face threaded, something I’ve never done, but I let the girl know that my skin is very sensitive, and she reassured me that it would be fine if I threaded my face, and waxed my sideburns. After, she wiped my face with cortisone cream, not bothering to first clean my face.
My face immediately started breaking out in welts and hives, but I thought they would go down. Nope, instead they turned into a series of bumps, like folliculitis, alllll over my face, which then became infected. Had to go to the dermatologist, who said it’ll take at least a week for the bumps to go away. Now I’m left feeling even uglier than I’ve ever felt, with a horrible breakout.

Wow! Came here randomly for eyebrow and lip threading… it went very well so I decided to come back a few days later for a Brazilian wax. I’m always nervous getting a Brazilian at a new place (I’ve had some nightmare experiences), but Mira was so incredibly kind, quick, and thorough. It wasn’t painless (because that would be impossible) but it was so much less painful than waxes I’ve had at fancy spas and salons. And only $ 35! (They also do sugaring for $ 10 more). I will definitely be back here to see Mira again.

I just got my eyebrows ruined at this place. Tonight I came in asking for the same thing: «I want very thick eyebrows. Just a clean up please. Very thick.» When she was done and I saw myself in the mirror I couldn’t really hold back the tears. I had been trying to grow my eyebrows for like two years now and she left me with not only about ¹⁄₃ of what I had, she also gave a super pronounced arch and the brows are UNEVEN. Yes, she said she was sorry, because I was literally crying. I was so angry I couldn’t even speak. She had the nerve to tell me to come back soon, I am never going back to this place. I know it’s not the end of the world and they will grow back, a painfully slow process that I’m all to familiar with, but for now I don’t even wanna look in the mirror.
This was honestly such a horrible experience and my advice is that if you decide to get your brows done here, don’t. But if you still do, bring a picture or something I don’t know. I’m not sure if she understood what I meant by «thick» and «clean up» or if she just didn’t listen to my explanation at all. I would suggest you get them done with the taller lady, I’m sorry I don’t know their names, she did mine the two times I went before and she didn’t do a bad job.

I am regular here for waxing. It’s not so great, but not so bad too. I have been to better places in midtown. The only reason I keep going here is because I haven’t found a better place in downtown near my work place.
I usually ask for Ruby who is good at waxing. The other person Jolly is really bad at waxing. She once did a terrible job and since then I have never gotten it done by her.
In all, I don’t mind recommending this place in case of emergency.

The worst brow job I’ve ever gotten! They butchered my arches, made it look like I have two completely different brows and then when I complained about it, I was told «just use the pencil.» They’re lopsided!!! No pencil is fixing that they’re lopsided!!! This is the worst! I’d post a pic but I’m completely embarrassed by what’s happening on my face right now. I’d never come back here! I’ve been to some of their other locations and have never had such a horrible job done.

Brazilian was done here was amazing of course it hurt, but I have to say the person who did the service I forget her name but she was knowledgable and gentle. Will definitely go back and also get my eyebrows etc. done !

Perfect Brows NYC
I have had the pleasure of having my Eyelash Extensions removed, installed and maintained at Perfect Brows NYC @ 40 Water Street on several occasions.
The Staff (Ruby & Jolly) are always pleasant, efficient, thorough, thoughtful and patient. Throughout my service they check periodically to ensure I am satisfied and answer any and all questions and concerns I have had. As a new «eyelash extension» client I had a lot of questions. After installation they always provide me with a two day grace period to come back in to address any concerns or issues free of charge.
The Salon is always clean, well lit and comfortable. Although they are very busy, they do not sacrifice quality in order to be efficient. They’re installation techniques are superb and at a fraction of the cost of most salons.

My company moved to the FiDi area and I was happy to find a threading place nearby. I walked in after work around 5:30pm and I was one of two customers at the time. The lady who did my brow was good, her technique did not hurt at all. I did brow and lip and it was good. She kept my brow natural-​looking but groomed. Next time I will ask for a thinner brow and more arch.

If you work in the neighborhood, and are looking for that affordable brow venue to just clean up, then look no further this is your spot. The place is clean and bright. They had me in and out– 5 – 7 mins tops. They offer other services, but I can’t speak on those.

I came here the other week and my brows are still looking great. The ladies are warm and welcoming and are very professional. Services are in the average price range.
Like most threading salons, they give you a deal to get one free session after 9 times but here you check in with your email, meaning no pesky stamp cards.
The salon is clean and well kept. They do waxing and a variety of other things but I just stuck to eyebrow threading.

Agree with all the good reviews. I used to go to a salon that charged more than twice what this place does and these ladies here are just as good, if not better. This place is pristine clean, the ladies are pleasant and well skilled. The prices cannot be beat. I almost hesitate to give them a great review because now the wait will be longer. But, they deserve all the business they can handle.

Very clean, quick service and I liked the outcome of my eyebrows from the threading. Prices are great too!

I’ve come here consistently for about a year at this point. The prices are average New York City prices ($ 8/​eyebrow threading) but these ladies know service and quality. Ruby remembers me each time and knows the shape I like on my brows. I’ve used them for waxing services and they are clean and thorough without rushing you.
Would definitely recommend!

I’m always nervous about trying new places regarding eyebrows and waxing, especially when there aren’t a lot of reviews to reference but I love this place.
The first time I went, I went for my eyebrows. The girl that attended me I unfortunately didn’t get her name (slim, long hair in a ponytail). I’m currently trying to grow them out since the previous person from a different location made them too thin. The girl understood and shaped them so that it can grow into the shape I want.
The second time, I went for a Brazilian using sugar wax. First, anyone who has never waxed please do not use regular wax, it’ll be the most painful thing you’ll go through. Sugar wax by far less painful. Chocolate wax is cool too but sugar for me always seems more tolerable. So the lady I had was Ruby and she was awesome. She made conversation and tried to make me as comfortable as possible, which is pretty hard to do considering the service that is being done. She told me of the services the place offers and how long I should have my next wax.
Overall, clean place. No double dipping. Great service. And they don’t rush you once the place starts getting crowded.

I’ve now gone back 2 or 3 more times, and my brows have been consistently very well done, exactly how I like them.
