Brows By Chandni’s

Although my botched brows aren’t the end of the world, I am pretty upset because this was completely preventable. I have been to Chandni’s often with hit or miss results, but none as upsetting as today. The lady obviously trimmed just one of my brows to the point of making it look like a flat top. Thankfully she didn’t ruin the other one too, but now they clearly mismatch, which is the OPPOSITE of what I expect when I go there. I’ve had some great threadings there and some blah threadings, but after today I will NEVER go back. (I would have contacted Chandi’s directly, before leaving a review, but surprisingly there is NO email info for the owner or manager.)

This place is AMAZING!!! I have been getting my eyebrows threaded for 5 years now twice a week. I had been going to a place in Northgate mall in Durham. I went to this place today and LOVED IT! I have very thick black eyebrows and they looked great after the lady did them. And the best part is that It’s only $ 7!!! I’ve been paying $ 12 twice a week for the past 5 years. Anyways, I highly recommend this place. The ladies are very nice and very fast. You’ll be in and out very quickly and you’ll come out looking beautiful. Also, I wanted to point out that it didn’t really hurt as much as when I get them done at Northgate Mall. Love this place!!!

Hit an miss sometime with the service, but mostly good. Really suggest the worker to wash their hand more carefully after they eat… my face smelled like onion for hours after a particular session there…

I have been getting my eyebrows threaded for years and the prices/​talent at this place are comparable to the joints up in Canada… except up north, you could get threaded and go next door for a 50 cent samosa after! The ladies are so sweet and I haven’t had a bad experience yet. I was just here Friday evening and the first thing my husband noticed during our skype session (he’s away doing army things) was how nice my eyebrows were!

To keep it short and sweet, Brows By Chandni’s gets the job done. When my brows are bushier than cavemen’s, this is where you’ll find me… It’s probably the best threading place I’ve found in the triangle. With that being said, it’s not the greatest. They’ve botched my brows a few times – thinned it a bit more than I’d asked for, left them a tad bit uneven, but that may be simply because when it comes to my bush-​baby-​brows, I’m as picky as they come. As a result, I don’t always leave ecstatic about my brows, but I do always leave a bit more well-​groomed than when I came in, and I guess that’s fine by me!

These women are beyond amazing! If you want to feel confident about your eyebrows every time, you’re in great care here. I go NOWHERE else in the triangle once I found them. Thank you for keeping the brows on «fleek» :)

This was my first experience with threading, having been a wax and tweezer gal in the past. I came around 1 in a week day and expected a lunchtime wait, but there were only 3 clients with 2 people working, so it wasn’t bad at all. Thanks to other Unilocalers, I was sure to bring cash (thanks, ladies!). I specifically asked for an arch (again, as suggested here), but I didn’t end up with much of one. I found the experience to be more painful than waxing, but not terribly so. My biggest complaint was that I had about 5 tiny red bumps between my eyebrows the next day that lasted for 2 – 3 days. They looked like little pimples more than ingrown hairs, and they resolved spontaneously. I can’t recall that ever happening to me with waxing before. Overall, I thought she did a decent job. It was comparable to a ~$ 12 waxing kind of place, but definitely not like the Benefit Brow Bar, which I’ve heard people say it’s as good as. I personally don’t think that threading is for me, but if you already know you like it, I don’t see anything wrong with this place. The lady who helped me was very nice.

This place is very hit or miss. I’ve had many eyebrow threadings here that were pretty good, but I’ve also had a couple of disastrous threadings. The first bad one was in early April of this year, and my brows still aren’t back to normal. Had my second disastrous experience there today, and it will be the last. Wide discrepancy in the skill level of the technicians.

Used to be my favorite place to get my brows threaded. The last time I went in they cut one of my eyebrows wrongly. It might have been accidental and I wasn’t upset because people make mistakes.
I became upset when the lady had the audacity to tell me I had done it myself and it was my fault. She went on to mock and ridicule me in Hindi to another lady (of which I am fluent in) and THEN told some random lady entering that I had cut my eyebrows myself and I was upset. I was standing there speechless at the register. They made such a scene about it. Who ACTS like that?
I did the nice thing and paid even though I didn’t have too. However, I could NOT believe these women’s behavior. I wont be back until they issue an apology.
Astonished by the unprofessional and demeaning behavior.

My favorite place to get my eyebrows threaded. Make sure you tell them you want an arch if you want to keep/​have an arch. It’s hard for them to know what shape you want unless you tell them. All the ladies here are very nice, my favorite is Loksmir (not sure how you spell her name). Also, it is the cheapest place I’ve found in the area… $ 7 cash or $ 8 if you use MC or Visa.
If you save your receipt, you can get TCBY next door for a discount too! This place does not take appointments so be prepared to wait if you’re going during after-​work hours or lunch.

I am always super cautious about that last star — 4 stars is easy, standard good service, no real complaints, but not like an AMAZING experience or anything. The 5 stars here is well-​earned.
I have truly awful eyebrows, they grow like weeds and are the bane of my existence. I don’t have a lot of beauty/​personal health demands like mani-​pedis or massages or facials but I do get my threading done like clockwork. It’s basically a necessity to continue participating in society as a human and not as a human-​like gorilla.
I came in, had my threading done and was out in less than 20 minutes. My eyebrows are PERFECTLY shaped (and this has never happened… I always find a stray hair missed) and best of all it’s incredibly affordable. I usually dread getting it done because my old threader back in CA makes my upper eyelids/​under brow burn and sting with pain and I’d always just assumed that was the price to pay to get it done. Not so here, they know what they’re doing! I look forward to the next visit (never EVER thought I’d say that!)

I am no eyebrow expert but I do know that waxing and threading can be pricey and plucking your eyebrows can be a bi… *sorry* a total pain. I have thick, dark bushy eyebrows, thanks grandpa, and they constantly need managing. So when I heard about a place that will help me out in the eyebrow department for less then $ 10 a visit I had to give them a try. On my first visit I took my two sisters with me to check it out. Threading is fast, so whether there’s a line of customers or not, it won’t be a long visit. You walk in the door and are greeted by the stylists that perform the threading in the big studio space, and sign in at the ipad. Then just wait your turn!
I’m sensitive to pain so the first time I experienced threading at Chandni’s I had to bite my tongue. It’s definitely not as bad as plucking but it’s a constant pulling of eyebrows for about 10 – 15 minutes (depending on how often you manage them). The stylists have good customer service and I always recognize the women. They’ve never asked me how I want my eyebrows shaped or any specifics but I personally don’t have too many opinions when it comes to eyebrows so I don’t mind that. Sometimes they’ll give me tips on not plucking in certain areas to help even my eyebrows out (usually it’s if I notice something that’s uneven after they finish) and they definitely have a «style» they follow, my eyebrows get the same treatment every time. When they’re ready to show you the finished product they’ll give you a large mirror for examination and feedback. If all looks good they offer witch hazel or lotion to relieve any irritation and you’re on your way!
NOTE: They charge $ 1 on credit card purchases less then $ 10, so bring some cash if you only get your eyebrows threaded. They do offer other services (threading in other places, massage, facials) and you can sign up on an e-​mail list to receive specials and updates, although I’ve only tried the threading. I’m a fan and so are my two sisters, we keep going back!

I must say that I am one of those extremely picky women that does not trust just any hairstylist, eyebrow technician, etc. I gave Chandni’s a try and I must say I am more than pleased with the results. The technician respected my wishes to keep my brows thick and removed only «one line» from the lower brow at a time to ensure I was happy with the thickness. She kept asking me if I was okay and let me have a look in the mirror several times. The results were more than I could ask for and I even posted a picture to ensure you have an accurate portrayal of this wonderful business.

Love, love, love Chandni’s! I’ve been coming here since moving to Durham and they always do a fantastic job. All the ladies are so pleasant and very quick as well. Sometimes on the weekend you have to wait a bit so I try to go during the week.
Very inexpensive price-​wise ($ 7 for eyebrows – I’ve paid up to $ 20 before!) If you’re total is less than $ 10 there’s a $ 1 credit card charge.

I have been looking for a place in the area to have my eyebrows done. After reading the Unilocal reviews, I decided to try Chandni’s out. I had never had mine threaded before, but I am very happy with the results. The woman who did mine did a great job and she did not remove too much (my biggest fear). Just cleaned them up and left their natural arch. Highly satisfied, and for only $ 7 + tip!

In and out in 5 minutes. They did mine and my husband’a eyebrows and they are absolutely perfect

You are more and more amazing with the days. Thanks for making me feel special when I go there. You rock !!!

I was missing their Raleigh location and was looking for a threading place in Durham. I got to a point that I did not know what to do with my brows and then I got a sign from above (or maybe it was just a sign on Hwy 54) advertising the new Chandni’s location. As with the other locations it’s quick, inexpensive, and great. Hooray for a Durham location!

I am thrilled that Chandni’s has opened a location in Durham! I was driving all the way to Cary to get my eyebrows threaded before. The salon is beautiful and they did a fantastic job with my eyebrows (as always). The best part is the price. They only charge $ 7. If you’ve never had your eyebrows threaded before, I suggest a visit to Chandni’s. They do a great job and you will be happy with the results.

Hooray! Chandni’s is taking over the Triangle, and Durham has recently fallen to their kingdom of threading. The original threading phenomenon has expanded from its Cary location to Morrisville and — finally! — Durham. After trying threading for the first time 9 months ago, I haven’t looked back. My brows are so defined, and the process is so natural. I’ve tried a couple of other Durham-​area places, but been disappointed by the cost.
Chandnis is just $ 7, and the job I had done today was incredibly thorough. Moreso than most places I’ve been. I had Maru (sp?), and she was just as friendly as she was talented — making small-​talk with me, and checking in to make sure I was okay during the painful parts.
The only reason for withholding a star is that she was the only person working, and there were four girls in front of me. I waited 25 minutes for my turn. I also found the set-​up here a bit awkward, since the waiting area chairs face the customer chairs. So I felt sort of creeper-​style watching the other girls get groomed. They also charge $ 1 fee on credit cards, so bring some cash if you can.
