Wait is always long and making an appointment doesn't help the wait. Went to two different people and my brows never looked the same. When I was unhappy with them, their solution was to make them thinner, but they still did not have the same shape.
The other location in Roswell has better talent. Sheena is amazing there. -

Came to this place for a brazilian, left wondering if I should head to a burn unit. I've had good brazilians as well as bad, but this was some next level s***. To this day, not a single one of my friends can listen to my Hair Images story and maintain composure. In fact, I suspect that the intimate details of my experience would actually deter some women from ever getting waxed again, so I'll go ahead and withhold them. All I will say is this: if you care enough about your nether regions to maintain them, then you definitely care enough to avoid Hair Images at all costs.

I am spoiled I know. For my first time threading (I am an avid waxer), I'm a lil disappointed by my one size fits all eyebrow shape. It looks like they are drawn on. I only wish I had that problem - I have PLENTY of brow to work with so this shouldn't be a problem. They aren't quite even either. Threading hurt like a b****, but I can take the pain if they look stellar. Quick and dirty at $8 is a reason to go, but I'm going to keep searching.

Really liked Brigitte, the hair stylist. She cut my hair exactly how I wanted it, and I have very curly hair which can be difficult to cut. Was perfect at a great price and great location. I'll definitely be going back.

This is a really convenient place for me to get my eyebrows down. They are fast but does a great job. Nothing to feel all excited just regular service. I like Ruby Beauty Center better.

I once went to DC's in Decatur since I heard it was cheap. It was but that came with a price (ugly eyebrows). I really didn't want to pay $8 plus tip for my eyebrows but I also didn't want another screwed up job so I came here. They did a very nice job of shaping my brows and I love them! I will definitely be coming here when I need to get my eyebrows threaded; their service is worth the price : )

I would give 5 stars for Alvira's brow-threading but a 3 for the salon overall. Alvira can work miracles even with caterpillar brows! They are able to work you in fast and take walk-ins. If you are able to go before 4pm during the week, your wait time is greatly reduced. Prices are very reasonable.

Review from Kinjal P.
7/14/2011
Meh. This place has become too commercialized. There is always a wait, sometimes up to 30 minutes long. The beauticians rush through the job because they want to get through as many customers as possible - quantity over quality. Anytime I get my eyebrows done and check in the mirror after they finish, I always find spots they have missed. It's also a little pricier than all of the other locations in Atlanta. Also, if you hire someone from Hair Images for a mendhi party, they ask for you to come pick them up and take them to the location. Boo... take a cab. As I mentioned before, meh.

Review from Helen H.

I absolutely insist on getting my eyebrows threaded vs. waxed just b/c threaders are usually so much better at shaping your eyebrows... and you feel sooo clean after like you got a haircut for your face.
However..... this was NOT the case at hair images. I've gotten my eyebrows threaded here several times because they are pretty conveniently located right off of the N. Druid Hills exit.
Every time i've been I've had a MEH experience:
- Sometimes.. I look at my eyebrows later in the sunlight and it's NOT completely clean!! This I can kind of deal with b/c it only cost me $7 and I can go home and clean it up myself.
- Other times.. I ask for my already minimal eyebrows to not get too thin~ and I leave with bitchy super arched thin eyebrows that do not fit my face or style AT ALL. This is a little less acceptable but I can still deal b/c my eyebrows will replenish themselves in two weeks. It's ok.
- This most recent time (the last straw) - they left one eyebrow SUPER THIN and the other one.. ok but still thinner than I'd like - AND the shapes were different. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE..... because i look like a 'TARD.
ARGH. FRUSTRATION.
I would suggest making the trek to Ruby Beauty Center on Dekalb Industrial. I went there religiously back when I was a student at Emory and have walked away feelin GREAT every single time. Even later when I moved out of the Emory bubble, I would take the 30-minute-in-traffic drive over from Midtown or Buckhead. Hair Images has reconfirmed to me that if you value your eyebrows, don't get lazy b/c the drive is totally worth it.
P.S. the ppl at Hair Images are awfully awfully rude. Grr. -

Ehhh.... I don't know.
I called about an hour before I wanted an appointment, and was greeted gruffly and promptly hung up on after I gave my name with no explanation. I figured I could deal with this, the Yelp reviews had warned me, and I was only paying $7. They didn't even ask what service I was making a reservation for, so I hoped that when I arrived I wouldn't be whisked in to some back room for some creepy treatment.
When I arrived, I was a bit late, and told them who I was. Without looking up, the lady muttered "first chair on your right," a chair that was currently occupied. I waited just a few seconds for the client ahead of me to finish up and then Alvira told me to get seated, she'd be right back. I waited a few minutes and surveyed the place. It seemed a little dirty, with errant threads all over the place and old face powder kind of scattered on countertops. Not pretty.
Now, let me tell you about my brows. They are thick, manly, a trait I received from my very well browed father. And you know what? I love them. Sure, they may not be very feminine and they definitely need to be kept under control to keep them from taking over my face, but this is why I get them threaded. Just for control, not to make them look like everyone else's.
Despite me asking to leave them thick, I walked out with generic brows. Boo. Knowing the monsters on my face, they'll grow back in, but I was pretty disappointed, even moreso when I got back to my car and in the natural light could see that they missed some seriously dark and errant hairs. If you're going to be overly thorough in shaping, be sure you get it all!
So yeah, I wasn't too enthused with my experience here. Nothing traumatizing, but nothing eye opening. Although I do look kind of perpetually shocked now that my brows are a little higher on my face.
I'll keep going to I Too in EAV. The lady there even complimented my butch brows.Listed in: Lady Maintenance

Hair Images
One of the hottest hair removal commodities in Atlanta is Hair Images. Centrally located off Briarcliff and N. Druid Hills, this full service salon specializes in threading, waxing, mehndi and henna tattoos. At least once a month I spend $10 to get my eyebrows and upper lip threaded. Pricing information and additional details can be found at http://www.hairimages.com.
Hair Images is in high demand so if you go, plan on waiting five to thirty minutes. Get there when they open to avoid the wait. Hair Images is open on Monday 10:00a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Tuesday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. If the start times don't suit your agenda, call (404) 248-0446 to schedule an appointment. I've actually called up to an hour before and received a slot.
Threading Crash Course
Threading is the ancient art of hair removal used in India, Pakistan and the Middle East. Hair is removed with entwined cotton thread. Aggressively, the thread moves across the skin and plucks the hair from the root. The effect is similar to tweezing, but better since your removing hair at a faster pace from the follicle.
Pros
*Threading is said to be more effective than depilatory creams, waxing and tweezing.
*Hair usually stays gone for at least 3 weeks, but this varies by person.
*Threading your eyebrows will result in better definition and a more natural look.
*Hair Images stylists are friendly and well trained cosmeticians.
Cons
*Like every other hair removal process, threading may cause slight redness and soreness. Ladies don't feel intimidates, beauty knows no pain so this is worth it!
*Every time the hair is threaded from the follicle it feels like a slight pinch. For eye brow threading, I recommend, closing the eye lids and holding them. For your upper lip, close your mouth and follow the thread by pressing your tongue under your upper lip.
*The threading process is a few minutes longer than waxing. -

I love having my eyebrows threaded. It hurts like heck. But I think it lasts longer than waxing and you don't risk having your skin ripped right off your face.
My suggestion is to make an appointment. The first time I went was at 3p on a Friday. I waited for 30 minutes and decided to leave b/c people who were walking in the door were breezing right past me b/c they had appointments.
I went this morning as soon as they opened at 10a. I was 3rd in line. The only problem was that there was only one person working and people were piling in by the minute. I felt that she rushed a bit and my eyebrows weren't as neat and shaped as they should have been.
But I'm willing to give it another try. -

AWFUL! AWFUL! AWFUL!
DON'T GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(ok, that got rid of a few people too lazy to keep reading)
I hate that so many people know about this place now. There is always a wait, but it's worth it. As someone mentioned before, the owner/manager is rather rude, but the girls working there are nice and fast.
Threading combines the precision of tweezing with the speed of waxing (they manage to get those fine hairs that never come out with waxing ) The end result is amazing and I always get compliments on my eyebrows. -

I went to Hair Images on a Sunday and I was in the parking lot at 10:50. By the time the doors opened there were about 7 more people at the shop. I would definitely suggest an appointment, unless you are going to get there before doors open.
I saw Charlie (My first time so I didn't know who to ask for) and she did a nice job.
The only reason I gave Hair Images 3 stars is because this salon is no better or worse than any threading salon I've been to in Atlanta (and I've been to many).
If I am in the area and need my brows threaded, I will go to Hair Images, but I wouldn't go out of my way because there are plenty of threading salons that are just as good. -

Hair Images is the place for threading unnecessary and unwanted hair. I just moved to Atlanta and on my long list of priorities was to find someone to do my eyebrows. A friend of a friend told me about the place and I was ecstatic. I was advised to make an appointment, due to long wait times, with Minaz. I am glad I did because there were so many people in the salon. Even on a Thursday afternoon around 2pm, you may find yourself waiting.
Minaz at Hair Images does great work and they are reasonably priced at $7 for eyebrows. You will be very satisfied, just don't show up there without having made an appointment. -

I don't know how I survived without the threading masters of Hair Images. I've been going to Spa Sydell for years, getting my eyebrows waxed and spending large amounts of money but at the urging of a girlfriend tried to give this place a chance.
It's been 4 months and I have not looked back. They are nice and you are in/out so quickly [with appointments]. Usually if you don't have an appointment and go on days to avoid the rush [Fridays and Saturdays] you should not have a problem.
You cannot beat the $7 service either! If you have not been to this place, don't walk- run there! -

As usual, one of my girls let me in on one of her beauty secrets and I was beside myself. Every time I see Felicia (which isn't enough) her eyebrows are chiseled and immaculate. Fee asked me to (for some reason that rhyme made laugh) guess how much she pays for eyebrow threading. Being the novice that I am regarding eyebrow grooming, she was on the floor laughing when my speculation began at $15. When she said $7 I knew I had my new venue for threading. (I actually pay $10 which includes a $3 tip)
Having gone to Hair Images twice now, I think I have learned the trick to scheduling. An appointment is the way to go. If you prefer being a walk-in, I suggest 11 am or 2 pm Tuesday to Thursday. Do not and I repeat DO NOT walk-in Friday through Monday. As you can imagine, the word is out about Hair Images so prime time for them is bananas. -

Thanks, Yelp! I tried this place based on the reviews and I love it! Wow! SO fast and only $7 for a great job! I had tried eyebrow threading once before moving to Atlanta, paid more than 3x as much and wasn't impressed at all. That's all changed thanks to Hair Images Salon!
I've been lucky enough to walk right in, so no complaints from me about the wait! I can see how it can get crazy on weekends. -

This is such a great place to have your brows tended to and it's really exciting for first timers. They swish you into a chair, attack your face with strings (lol) and you emerge slightly bleary-eyed yet instantly beautified. I've always had unruly brows and coming here for the first time actually was a transformative experience for me haha.
I have been completely hooked since my first visit. Since then I've started using their other services such as bikini wax and pedicures (mani/pedi = weekends only). It just gets better and better. There does not seem to be any area in which they do not excel. So bottom line: Impressively consistent results, they move through the line quickly and efficiently, everyone there is friendly and professional.
I trust Hair Images pretty thoroughly at this point. :] -

I was considering going to have my eyebrows waxed when I came across all the reviews for threading on Yelp. Hair Images had the best reviews, so I decided to give "threading" a try & I'm so glad I did.
I don't have very full eyebrows & I have never had them waxed, I just wanted to get them shaped. I took in two pictures to show Alvira how I wanted my eyebrows arched..she took a quick peek, then started "threading". I had read in other reviews that threading is somewhat painful, but I really didn't think so & it was SO fast. Alvira did a great job of evening out my eyebrows & arching the brow. I can't wait to go back....and it only cost $7! I had an appt so I was in & out in under 10 minutes.. -

I was bored and wanted to treat myself to something nice so i looked up reviews of this place on YELP :D Its about 35 minutes from me so i was hoping it was worth the drive. I got there around 7 and in less than 5 minutes, i was on a chair. The lady was done in less than 5 minutes! It was painful but not unberable. I will definitely go back.
The main guy....dont know if he was the receptionist or owner was short to me both on the phone and when i got there. Either because i got lost and called 3 times to get directions or he was having a bad day. Either way, yes, it was worth the 35 minute drive! -

Be warned, this place is a zoo on the weekends, it doesn't matter what time you arrive.
I don't get any hair ( er, on top of my head) services, only threading and waxing. I won't lie and say that everyone is equally good and skilled either. Twice, I got jacked up because I went on the day that my preferred stylist was off. Never again!
Alvira is my go-to girl for threading my brows/sideburns, and waxing my 'stache and beard ( don't judge me, at least I make the effort to reign it in :-/ ). In her hands, I always look great until it's time to see her again.
The key to getting serviced in a reasonable amount of the time is to make an appointment and be ON TIME. Otherwise, you're begging to spend a lot of time waiting. -

I love this place! It is pretty close to where I live, so it is not hard to get there, but I would suggest making an appointment. I never ask for a particular person to thread my eyebrows. They all do a great job. I have tried other places, and have not liked the job they have done and have paid a ton of money. This place charges $7....SERIOUSLY!
I would say to bring a magazine to read while you wait though. -

"La, la, la, la, laaaaaa...I want to get pretty, I go to Hair Images Salon!" This place is my first stop on beautifying days...I discovered it casually at Kiehl's in Lenox Mall, where they were giving complimentary henna tattoos. I don't particularly feel the love for the mall, and was there with guests; but I adore anything henna, so I bought some herbal cucumber toner from the store to get the maroon filigree drawn on my skin. As I expected, it was exquisitely applied on my wrist, and the process was soooo relaxing and nice! Reason enough to make me grab a business card before I left.
The next morning, I was sipping coffee with very little enthusiasm (it was a dark, stormy Monday...) and my eyes landed on the card, just to discover they offered silk threading! I was dying to try it...that powerful thing called "word-of-mouth" (little we know about it, don't we?) had me wondering how would it work on my wax-free eyes...
I have never had a better job done on my eyebrows (for just $7!!!) As I already said, I'm uber scared of the wax-eyelids combo (I have nightmares about my eyelids sagging and becoming eye tents). The salon is usually packed with pretty Atlanta's ladies, but the line goes fast: they're quick and very professional.
The only thing we the customers could use is a smile...at least a tiny, tiny smirk. They are so grim it makes you exit the place seriously depressed...and wanting to chow down the whole Indian buffet next door to get back some of the lost happiness.Listed in: My Neighborhood

Review from Amanda H.
Lawrenceville, GA

So I finally bit the bullet today and got my eyebrows threaded. I hadn't let anyone other than myself touch my eyebrows in three years! The last time I had them waxed, they tore a bit of skin off and...long story short, it ended up being a good thing because it's how I found out I had skin cancer, but ANYWAY, I had sworn off waxing for life.
My boyfriend's sister had mentioned this place to me and told me about threading, and upon seeing just what kind of rave reviews it got on Yelp, I finally went for it today.
Being that I was walking in at 12:30pm on a Friday, I fully expected to wait for a long time, which would have been okay...but to my glee, I was in and out the door within five minutes! I was astounded.
They really seem to have an efficient system going in order to handle the masses. The woman at the front desk was able to tell me which seat to go to without evening looking up. After the two women in line ahead of me, I was seated on the second chair on the right.
I told the woman that I'd never had my eyebrows threaded before, so she showed me how to hold my skin tight as she threaded. She kindly informed me that I'd been over-tweezing, to which I told her that I'd been stuck on my own in terms of shaping them for three years, so naturally there had been some mishaps along the way. Other than that, she was very shy and a little awkward.
I'm usually a total wimp about stuff like this hurting, but I was delighted to find that threading didn't hurt a bit! In fact, it actually felt really cool. It felt almost like she was merely brushing my eyebrows with a thick comb. My skin wasn't even red afterwards, which is incredible for someone as pale as I am.
Within a couple of minutes, she was done, and my eyebrows looked fabulous. The only qualm was that when I got home, I noticed a row of little blonde hairs (I'm a brunette) she had missed in shaping my eyebrows, which I easily tweezed away. Also, she didn't get any of the little hairs between my brows.
That having been said, I certainly don't mind doing a bit of tweezing here and there in between threads, because believe me, I'll be going back! -

For years, I've been going to a particular salon near my home to get my eyebrows waxed. While the folks there were nice, I'd have to time my visits right...or the stylish gay Asian dude who normally works the front desk would end up doing my eyebrows. While he can do a fierce french manicure, I'm convinced he screws my eyebrows up because he doesn't want anyone else to look as good as he does (and yes, he is quite attractive!) Sooooo, after he screwed up my eyebrows for the umpteenth time...I decided it was time to find a new eyebrow place. In comes Yelp. Ended up selecting Hair Images because of the many reviews. Let's just say...I no longer look like a scared clown. Sanaa at Hair Images hooked me up, and for only $7 plus tip!
Hair Images is located across the street from a Target and is in the plaza with the Ethiopian restaurant and the Halal food store. I went on a Saturday at about 2:30...walked in, signed in, and went straight to Sanaa. I told her it was my first time getting my brows threaded and she instructed me on what to do. Within five minutes, she was done! I then paid at the front (and unlike other reviewers, the guy at the front desk was nice when I told him I drove all the way from Douglasville because I heard great things about the place) and I was out in a total of ten minutes!
I will definitely be back in about 2.5 weeks! I highly recommend the place! -

I love this place. I had my first threading experience here 5+ years ago and I still drive down toward Emory when I want to get my brows done.
I like Alvira she's the best at getting my brows perfectly even. The only reason I gave it 3 stars is because Hair Images is so popular you can never get your brows done at the time of your appointment. Even with an appointment you always have at least a 10-15 min wait. Other than that~ they're great. -

Thank you, ladies of Hair Images, for providing an invaluable service to the people of Atlanta -- threading. This is just another method of torture that women (and some men) endure to look hot.

Make an appointment unless you want to wait a very, very long time. -

I have been going to this place for about a year, and I think they do a decent job, and I love that it is cheap. But seriously, I agree with you, Kathleen...could they just be a little nicer on the phone? The guy who answers the phone is not polite/friendly at all and could use some a good customer service class or something. When he hangs up on me, I never know whether I have accomplished setting an appointment up...or not.
I must say though that every time I make an appointment here they definitely prioritize you over walk-ins.
Also, one nice thing that happened lately, was that-- I was paying and I asked as a favor if the lady at the counter could charge me more than give me cash back (I was in a rush to leave town for a trip), and she obliged. Not trying to make a habit of it, but for her to do that as an exception was great.
That's all-- on my way to get my eyebrows done now.1 Previous Review: Show all »

I have been coming here since the day they opened and while the prices for eyebrow threading have gone up from $4 10 years ago to $7 now, and it's still a couple bucks cheaper to go somewhere else, I keep coming back for Alvira. She is awesome. She is always smiling and laughing and knows what she is doing. If you tell her that something didn't get done right, she will fix it, without a fuss.
I used to go to Sana for about 6-7 years but since she is really good at what she does, a lot more people started going to her as well, making her tired and always behind.
Tip: make an appt! If you want to do a walk-in, go on weekday afternoons. -

I went to Hair Images to get my hair and make-up done for my anniversary party last year and they did an amazing job. For the make-up, they used a new airbrush technology which applied foundation uniformly throughout my face - best of all, there was no contact with the applicator! It gave my skin a glow which lasted throughout the night and I received countless compliments that evening. The best part was that it still looked so natural. I am sold!

I've gone in twice, and wanted to be sure I could write a fair review. The service for brow threading is $7, which you cannot beat anywhere.

Review from Emily C.

I've been twice for eyebrow threading, both times as a walk-in. If you go on a weekend, do get there *right* as they open, because the line starts to build up quickly. I did that and waited about 15 minutes; it wasn't too bad.
The receptionists there both times had the people skills of aggressive tortoises, but if you're willing to ignore that, it's not bad. The woman who did my brows today was perfectly cheerful. The only complaint I had was that she did them rather thin and unarched; I don't know how much better it would have been if I had brought in a picture of what I had in mind.
It hurts, but the pain stops more or less as soon as the threader does, and unlike waxing there's no chance of a little strip of skin being ripped off (have had that happen twice; thus the threading). It's worth the $7. -

I am a huge wussy.
Needless to say, threading scared the crap out of me, but it's not that much worse than tweezing, and then I don't have to worry about having a giant "red moustache" that I always fear of getting from waxing. Funnily enough, I went here to get my unsightly upper lip threaded (plus eyebrows and chin), but ended up wussing out and just got the latter two done. Maybe next week I'll get up the nerve to go back and get the upper lip done.
I also got my hair cut here. I think it was the cheapest place I've ever been to ($15)! It wasn't the best cut of my entire life, but it looks good, she listened to me, and was personable. I wish I could remember her name. Nonetheless, I definitely liked it enough to go back again. Others may not have as much success, but my hair, being as fine as it is, is pretty hard to screw up. -

I go here to get my eyebrows threaded. There's always a huge line which I hate. Also make sure to tell them you don't want your eyebrows too thin if you like natural brows otherwise you'll end up with very thin eyebrows. They also wax your underarms for $5. Super cheap.

Crowded, not the cheapest, and every time I time I go they make my eyebrows juuust a little too thin. However they are really close to my house and aren't horrible. I've been know to stop by in a pinch. I still prefer Ruby Beauty

Thank you yelpers for putting me in the right direction! Everytime I move to a new city it's awful trying to find a new place to get hair cuts and even harder for the brows. I have weird reactions to the wax so when I lived in B'ham one of the spas used threading. I fell in love! I also feel like most hair salons usually want to make my brows really skinny and I look like a very surprised version of my self.
I got here right when they opened on a weekday and there were already ten people there all waiting for eyebrow shaping. I only waited maybe ten minutes because most of them were waiting for a specific person; since I'd never been I was up for whoever. She did a great job and I will definitely be back. The best $7 and well worth the trip from Sandy Springs.
