So, I continued to be too lazy to go all the way over to Beverly Hills to get my eyebrows threaded today, but thanks to Yelp, I realized Gloss in Silver Lake does eyebrow threading too.
I’ve been to Gloss a couple of times for manicures, but was not wowed. (Plus, Fancy Nails is my spot for mani/pedis!)
But the reviews on Yelp seemed to indicate the threading at Gloss was pretty good, so I figured it was worth a shot.
I was really glad I tried it. Threading was less painful than waxing and faster too. And I was not all red and bumpy afterwards. My brows look great!
The only downside is that Gloss charges $17, and other LA threading places are far less. Annoying! But it doesn’t really seem worth it to drive all the way across town to pay less…
17$ seems steep, but the results were good. Unless I can find somewhere that does threading cheaper in the neighborhood, I will be back to Gloss.
We’re both Vinita’s girls! They’ve got a location in Westwood and a new one on La Cienega. They only charge like $10 for brows!

HAHAHA! I didn’t realize you quoted us in a previous post!! You’re so awesome!!
Yay, I heart LA Pretty.
I always heard about threading but never tried it. I was inspired by your post to give it a try. I must admit. . . it was a little painful but worth it. Beautiful arch, clean lines, very professional. I prefer it now instead of waxing. I really like your website too. I like the layout and the huge photos.
Hey, beautyandthebombshell, thanks. I love threading. In fact, I was just realizing today, I kinda need to go back in soon. :)
