YUVA Threading Salon

If I could just give this place no stars I would.
I came in with a group on deal, for a Brazilian Wax. The lady tried to convince me to buy there own version of group on for 89 for 3 waxes. Along with trying to convince me to get the chocolate wax when at first I kindly rejected. It was the most painful waxing services I have ever experienced. I was bleeding afterwards. I also felt uncomfortable, the lady stood in the room when I was undressing myself and dressing myself.
I ignored that & decided to get semi eyelash extensions. They lady told me it would last up to 3 or even 4 weeks. So why not $ 40 for eyelash extension is a steal. I learned never to go for cheaper! They were terrible, I had them remove them right there. They lady tired to charge me an extra $ 10 to remove the eyelashes, which I stated I wasn’t paying. After she charged me $ 44, she thought it was ok to add 18% tip to my purchase like no no no. Then she asked if I was going to at least tip her for my waxing. I asked her for my refund she declined at that point she should of tired to fix my issue by trying to make the lashes look better. But I had a ton of glue on my lashes. I usually do my own eyelashes and decided to pamper myself a little, worst mistake ever!
Waiting for a call back from the manager.

Amazing service and Kamala is really skilled, talented at shaping eyebrows and thorough facial hair removal. Extremely pleased to find Kamala and look forward to getting my eyebrows threaded.

Reason I tried this place is because it is near my work. They did a great job threading my eyebrows. I would go back :)

If I could give this place no stars I would. I’ve been here three times (on a groupon deal), and all three I’ve been criticized for the way I was paying, tipping, or automatically charged for gratuity without my permission. They must feel that they can treat/​charge people unfairly just because they’re in midtown. If you’re looking for a good threading– head away from real touristy spots in midtown!!! And don’t be afraid to question your bill before and after services.

Love this place!!! I know that threading can be painful, but, it doesn’t have to be if you are in the hands of the right technician. They make they process quick and painless as possible.
My go to technician listens to what I want and is excellent in maintaining my thick shape of brows. I have always left with the perfect trim.
Highly recommend!

I work in the area and decided to come here based on location and reviews. So happy I did. My eyebrows were destroyed because I was lazy and tried to clean them up myself (never a good idea). The woman doing my brows made them look amazing and told me what I needed to let grow. I’m so bummed I can’t remember her name but guessing it’s Kim or Kamala.

Good, quick and efficient service for eyebrow threading. The ladies are friendly enough after ten or so visits, which are kept track of on a personal stamped business card, you get one free visit. Conveniently located as well.

After years of searching for a decent threader in the city who was comparable to the service I received in DC, I finally found it at YUVA. It’s difficult finding a technician who is consistent with their skill and delivery. But at YUVA, I found my girl who does my eyebrows EXACTLY how I want them each time. I’m very picky. Additionally, they offer great deals. I always do the eyebrow package which I think is $ 30 for 5 eyebrow services. You can’t beat that! I only gave 4 stars though, because not all of the eyebrow techs are as amazing as the lady who does my eyebrows. However, all of the threaders are experienced and skilled.

Love this place! I don’t work in the area anymore but it’s worth the trip!

VJ is awesome! He was so friendly and welcoming
Great service
Customer service is king!
And can’t beat the price :)

Went in to get my eyebrows done, and came out looking ready to go out on the town with a mani-​pedi and the whole nine yards! I’ve been going here for 3 years now, and as always in quite a rush (this last time on NYE)! But somehow, they always manage to squeeze me in! …AND, the owner is HOT! Doesn’t get better than that! But for real, I usually go to Kamala/​Kim for threading & waxing. And for nails Alba is my girl! The staff there is so patient and friendly, yet efficient… which saves me a lot of time. I love how hygienic the facility is. And best of all, they always run promos and are priced quite reasonably. Can’t wait to try their facials!

I this is an update to my last review which was primarily poor due to their misleading hours displayed. The manager was quite apologetic and handled the situation and now this review is for my threading experience only.
I was recommended to Yuva by a friend who loves getting her brows threaded there. I get a wonderful shape each time I go, and they never take too much off! It’s really quality for the price!

I’ve tried MANY salons in my time. This is the place I’ll come for my brows. I’ve been a customer for almost 10 years.
Please keep in mind that I moved all the way to NJ. I STILL come here twice a month to see my girls.
Trust me, you won’t regret it. Just be specific on what you want and they’ll meet your expectations.

I always wait for Kim to do my eyebrows because she is thorough and meticulous… but honestly, most of the women here are!
Kim is always sweet and personable. Today I brought a newcomer to threading and Kim did a fabulous job on us both!
Love this salon!

I’ve been coming to Yuva on 34^th st for almost two years. I love coming here, I always ask for
Kim. She takes care of me in such a loving manner and always leaves my eyebrows looking perfect. She is gentle and patient, and I never feel rushed.

…
In terms of facial, eyebrows and waxing I always go to kamala… I’ve been in different salons or spas from the cheapest to the most expensive ones, surprisingly that’s where I always go back (and to her)… She is fast and VERY efficient … Better? Well didn’t find it yet (she is just awesome)
Manicure — Elba is really good … From the very first day she got it! She did my nails the way I like it right on the first day…
Pedicure — Dolores
She is the best … You really feels your feet super clean and smooth… So far no one did better then her … I could say that she is more perfectionist then the other ladies…

Kamala is the best! I am a loyal eyebrow customer of hers and today I tried a Brazilian wax for the first time.
Although the pain was to be expected, Kamala was amazing, she was fast and thorough at the same time keeping me as comfortable and relaxed as possible.
Great first time experience

Went in for semi permanent eyelashes $ 40
I like this place
I’ll be back for more lashes and want to try a wax

Picked an OPI color for $ 11 plus fast-​drying coat & tip. Fast and very nice manicurist – concentrated but friendly. Very practiced. Receptionist was fast and to the point.

So this review is less for their services than for their atmosphere. I walked in for a manicure a few days ago and the manicure was good — she spent a lot of time filing my nails to ensure that I got just the right shape. The quick-​dry topcoat was an additional $ 1, but it’s really not a big deal considering how inexpensive manicures are.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t too impressed with the facilities. The chairs and tables where the manicures are done could have used a thorough deep clean. The chairs are beige, and the grime was showing. And the tables weren’t much better — I was really surprised that a place with such generally high reviews wasn’t in better shape. I would definitely hesitate to go there again, largely because the space just didn’t feel as hygienic as I would like.
