About Gulzar Beauty Salon
Gulzar Beauty Salon is a long-standing establishment with many loyal customers, some visiting for over ten or even seventeen years. It is particularly known for its eyebrow threading and waxing, with many describing the results as perfect and amazing. A significant highlight is the maintained $5 threading price, which is considered exceptional value, especially compared to other salons. The staff are generally described as friendly, nice, and professional. Customer experiences with specific technicians can vary. While some reviewers had a strong preference for a particular, highly skilled threader known for carefulness and gentleness, service with other available staff can be hit-or-miss, sometimes resulting in redness or anxiety. However, the results are fine most of the time. The salon's main contact issue is that phone calls often go straight to an answering machine. Despite any variability, the combination of consistent results, very friendly service, and unbeatable pricing fosters deep loyalty, with customers willing to travel for hours to visit.
It is really astonishing that they've managed to keep their eyebrow-threading price at $5 after all these years amid the pandemic and inflation, while I've seen some other places raise their prices significantly (ie, $5 to $10). I've been coming here pretty consistently for the last 6 years. I initially did not like this place that much until a newer lady (never got her name, just knew by face) joined in 2018 and started doing my brows, and I was so amazed by her carefulness and gentleness that I had a hard time being sent to the other ladies working there and would even queue up for as long as 30+ min so she could thread my brows! I even had a hard time going to other threading salons because she was so good. She left a few months ago and every time that I come here now and get a different lady, I'm literally just on the edge of my seat with lots of anxiety that they don't hate me and mess up my brows because I had a strong preference for my threader. They turn out fine most of the time, but I experience redness from the pressure they put on with the thread and constantly working on the same spot. It's a hit-or-miss place and it always hit when my favorite threader worked on me but now it's literally a gamble between hit or miss when I get thrown to the first available lady. Still, can't beat the $5 price for decent threading and they probably don't have any competition for that price point.
Got my eyebrows done here for the first time when I was 15 (17 years ago) and no matter what part of NY I moved to, I would always take the 2-3 hour ride, if necessary, just to have my eyebrows and lip wax done here. Absolute perfection. And they always treat you very nicely! Very friendly. Loyal to this place till I leave NY!
I always come here for head massage. All the ladies are very good. I used to come here for my nails as well but they stopped doing that. I wish they could bring that back. I can't complain, always good experience
