20 Reviews for Seema Beauty Salon
For those of you who think threading is less painful than waxing, I think you're crazy! However, this was my first time threading and I was very happy with the results - fast, affordable, & nice shape. I walked in (11:30 on a wkday) and was promptly seen although there was a steady stream of people traffic. I can see how you'd likely have to wait awhile on a weekend.
As far as eyebrow threading goes...
Cheap Fast Friendly (except the guy who answers phones). =o)
I'm definately a returning customer!
As a native of Los Angeles where Ziba locations are everwhere, I was finding it difficult to find a good threading place in this area. However, Seema is the closest thing to Ziba I could find. The prices are great and Mira was fast! The location is not as nice as Ziba, but it works!!
Horrible place to get eyebrows, they don't even get all the spots, i had a really horrible experience, and it wasn't just once, it was several times.
Eyebrows are the most important part of a woman's face, which can totally change the way you look, but Seema's place was not that great, and my eyebrows were messed up for a long time, it's not worth it at all, and she's rude. sorry to say.
Super busy, so without an appointment on the weekends, you could wait hours. Good option for this area, though the threading hurts a bit more and costs a bit more than Sumi Beauty.

Perhaps it's a bit harsh for me to rate this place ONE star, considering I never received any services here, but it was because I walked in, smiled, and waited for 15 MINUTES with no acknowledgement of my presence whatsoever. WTF?!!!!!!!!!!! Are you sure you want any business?!!!

I usually come here to get my hair done. The work done by the Ms. Jung, one of the hair designers, is pretty satisfactory all the time.
I would like to add strong recommendation for her!
Went here for the first time a few weeks ago. The service is good and they're really fast... the price for eyebrow threading is cheap (eyebrow and upper lip for $13). And the woman who did my eyebrows gave them a really great shape... now I can really tell when I'm surprised, confused, or angry. :)

i have tried for last 7 yrs various salons for "complete" body waxing, after my estetician of 8 yrs left the business. None of the salons or esteticians came close to doing brazilian wax fast, comfortable, clean and hygienically as this salon. I am in and out of the door with full body wax in an hour..talk about a WOW. I have worked with Seema and Karam and both are amazingly nice, witty, clean and super fast. To me its the best value for money and then some more.
I went here today for a full face threading. Overall, I'm pretty happy with their work, although I've never had threading before so I really didn't know what to expect. My eyebrows look incredible and no more facial fuzz! The place isn't exactly the fanciest or cleanest but it is a pretty good deal ($26 for full face). Like others have noted, no one greeted me at the door but I did see the walk-in sign-up sheet right away. I could barely understand the woman who did my threading but even with the language barrier, I was in and out in under 30 minutes.
FYI - the hours on their website are outdated. They're closed on Mondays and I believe they close at 5 p.m. on Sundays. Not sure about other days.

I've been here twice now, both times very satisfied. I don't think I had the actual 'Seema,' but I had two different women and they both did a great job. The second time I went Friday after work and I did have to wait 5-10 minutes, but that wasn't a big deal. At $8 you can't beat the price!
Also note: They only accept cash (checks for totals over $50)

I decided to go to Seema based on the reviews on Yelp. I've experienced threading before - and the experience can be uncomfortable, but I didn't experience any problems while she was threading me. The only thing was that I wasn't quite sure about her cues when she wanted me to shift or turn my head, so I actually bumped her with my arm while she was shaping my eyebrows. No harm done - she did a fine job. The price is great and the location is very convenient for me. Although Krystal N. comments that it's not the cleanest salon - there are places far worse than here. I will be back.
Had eyebrow ($8) and upper lip ($5) threading done today.
I didn't get the woman's name but she was very fast and very thorough. She let me inspect the work and told me to take my time and to let her know if I wanted anything touched up. She touched me up and we were good.
They lose a star because I called to make an appointment, was prompted to leave a message and did. I didn't hear back from anyone in two days so I also sent an email. No response that way either. I decided to walk-in instead. No one greeted me. They didn't even tell me to sign-in. I saw a sign and did it myself. No one ever came over to check the list or anything. The lady who does the threading had a client and I guess she knew I was there for her because I was watching her work. Then she just signaled me over and didn't even say hello. I expect a little common courtesy and I don't think it's too much to ask. But I didn't get that here.
But my upper lip is hair free and my eyebrows look great, so I'll probably come back and just take the coldness.

the first time i came to seema's was because deepa was closed. since then i've stucked here for threading my brows. the enviroment is so much cleaner and alot more organized. the wait has also been shorter too. here the girls do a thorough job. my brows are pretty thin, but somehow they manage to get them looking darker, defined, and super clean! i never have to draw them in. i've always left happy and never had to ask them to reclean any of the strays left behind. they do it right the first time around. for the same price i'd rather be here!
One of my college mates tipped me off to Seema and she's very good at shaping brows. It only takes about 10 minutes to get in and out, and she always takes me for walk-ins when i'm in the area. I did get a bikini wax here and it wasnt that great. Just go for the threading.
After years of bad experiences & skin reactions from waxing, I finally found a place near by that does threading. Let me tell you ladies (or men), threading is the way to go! Seema is great at threading! Ohhh, that satisfying pain of hair getting ripped off your face, I lav it! She's great at shaping my weird shaped eyebrows and does it quickly so I can get in & out. One star off because it's not exactly the cleanest salon, but hey for $13, what do you expect?
I've been here several times now, each time with a different person. They have not once screwed up my brows. Therefore, I am extremely satisfied with them and will continue to go back. Oh, and I love the price (compared to $25 I used to pay to get 'em waxed)!
If you are looking for a place to get threading, Seema does a great job and is reasonably priced. I've been able to make same day appointments easily and she is very quick and efficient. Only $26 do get your whole face threaded.
Friendly service and the waxing is a good price.
edit: since i found deepa last year, i haven't been going here anymore. deepa does a better job and is more thorough in my opinion. i stopped coming here after a super painful brazilian wax (read open wound). never again!
----------------
I go here regularly for lip/eyebrow threading. Seema does a good job, although sometimes she is a bit rushed and leaves little hairs on my eyebrows. If she does this to you too, just ask her to clean it up. I wish she would just be more thorough. It's very cheap though, as Margo stated.
