Just like the other reviews, this one is for the eyebrow threading only, not the salon.

So, I am Portuguese and I am lucky enough to love most of the features that come with being Portuguese. However, the hairiness I could really do without! Seriously, the bushy eyebrows are not cute and I fear a beard may be next. To top it all off, I have REALLY sensitive skin and can't get waxed at all. So, finding a good threader is important.

Short version of this review: This review really is 5 stars for how my eyebrows came out and 2 for the overall experience but I'll bump it up to four stars to be nice. Rupee is great and my eyebrows look awesome for only $5.
However, it is basically the last chair in a barber shop with men, women, and children everywhere. I opened my eyes to a few men staring at me getting threaded. It was a little uncomfortable.

If you want great, inexpensive eyebrow threading, go to Rosita's. If you want that salon experience or just need a little privacy while removing facial hair, do not come here.

Rupee is an amazing threader.  $10 for both eyebrows and upper lip, all done in under 20 minutes (cash only).  However, she doesn't take appointment, first come, first serve.  So if there is someone who wants henna done ahead of you, you are waiting for the henna to be finished, and then she meets with you.  The waiting sucks, and the salon is in Fremont, but if you have the time and desire, this place is good.

Looking for a master threader??!! Go see Rupee, she can create a new you!!! 5 bucks for brows also 5 for lip...I've been going to her for 2 months now and I'm addicted..You'll never wait longer than 10 min. & she takes about 10 to do the deed...Yeah, it's kinda painful...But no more painful than going to get a shi&&y wax job....She also does henna & indian facials...I haven't tried that, yet....
