indian beauty parlor in HK Posted by bban (1568 days ago) Does anyone know of an indian style beauty parlor in HK? Basically I'm looking for a place that does threading. It doesn't need to be very fancy; I just need to get my eyebrows done - I by that I mean threaded, not waxed or colored or anything else. Help! Thanks (I am based in Hong Kong) Find what you are after in our Hong Kong A-Z Directory  Posted by Qoo (1568 days ago) Bban (I am based in Hong Kong)

Posted by mr1234 (1567 days ago) Does anyone know of a salon in Tokyo that does eye brow threading (preferrably near roppongi) but please let me know if you know of any in Tokyo. THanks. (I am based in Tokyo) Posted by deviliciousv (1567 days ago) Kinu at Khoobsurat is pretty good at threading eyebrows. Have tried them all (almost) and she definitely gets a good review from me. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by fragrance (1567 days ago) i totally agree wuth deviliciously - kinu (khoobsurat)is the best for threading and shabnum best for waxing .. dont really get waxing done with kinu . shabnum is very good and quick as well . (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by bban (1565 days ago) Where exactly is Shabnum's place and is it called Shabnum or something else? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by deviliciousv (1564 days ago) Shabnum works on the 9th floor of Golden Crown Mansion in TST. If you're taking the MTR you get out of Exit D towards Nathan Road and cross the street on the left. The building is next to/near Blue Star. You can call her at 23693378. Everyone just calls it Shabnum's. Her sisters also go to people's homes if you prefer someone coming over, they will charge extra and go if you want more stuff done like waxing, not just eyebrow threading. (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by dhaul67 (1564 days ago) You can also this Indian salon in Wanchai - Tamana, tel no - 28917444. You can talk to Harvinder/Raman, they are pretty good, clean and reasonable as well. The address is 5/f, 156 nam hou bldg, no. 152-158 Wanchai road, hk. Always call before you go ! (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by bban (1564 days ago) Thanks for all your responses! I'll make it over to one of these soon. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by chiki (1558 days ago) I went to Shabnum's place yesterday and I have got to say that I came out with the most perfect set of eyebrows!!! She was kinda fast with the threading, but it didnt hurt, and I was worried that she might be making my brows too thin, but wow, when I looked in the mirror I was certainly more than impressed!! I will definitely be going back there again. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Game Hen (1558 days ago) Just read the price list for Khoobsurat, very cheap. However, there is no mention of bikini wax. Do they do it? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by chiki (1558 days ago) Are u talking about Shabnum's or Khoobsurat? Shabnum's does bikini wax too. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Blondie55 (1554 days ago) Has anyone heard of an idian beautician in Causeway Bay called Reeta? I wuld like to know what shes like first (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by bdi (1552 days ago) Which of these indian saloons do henna treatment for hair? Are they good at haircuts too? What are their prices like? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by blue monkey (1552 days ago) does anyone have the rpices for shabnum's? (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by RA (1552 days ago) I think all Indian Parlours do Henna, it is quite common in India. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Di (1552 days ago) Went to this place last year - didn't like it at all. Never went back to the "dark side" again. There is no privacy, hygience is so so. You will be the only gweilo there and all the other customers will stare at you like you're from outer space or something. Seriously, it's not worth the money you save to trapes all the way over there. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by sara-k (1552 days ago) Agree with Di. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mercury_element (1552 days ago) Blondie55>> i tried her few months ago, and now i go to her parlour only. she's quite good and quick at threading and waxing and rates are reasonable. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mmpishere (1515 days ago) mercury element and blondie55, could I please get the contact no. of Reeta in Causway bay? I just would like to find out the price as well as the exact location. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by coral (1515 days ago) I've been to the salon in TST mentioned above and I agree that hygiene is an issue, but for the price that's more or less what one would expect ($60 for threading the whole face). (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mercury_element (1515 days ago) mmpishere>> i have her mobile no. if that would help, its 91474790. you call her and ask her the location and price etc. FYI, she can come to ur house also. i normally call her for threading and hand and legs waxing. u ask her whatever u want to know. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by hkindian (1515 days ago) there is an indian parlor called La Bella its in TST, i go there its pretty sanitary and this lady Anita is good, does the eye brows pretty well, they are also cheaper than Shubnam, but not sure if better, havent been to shubnam before. The waxing however, they wax your hair in any direction not the direction of the growth. the lady Ruby isnt very nice, she started complaining about the fact that i shave sometimes and that my hair was too long - and that i should come every month - which i do - not my fault that my hair grows fast. (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by Rose (1515 days ago) mmpishere, (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by soon-to-wed (1315 days ago) Was it Khoob Surat that wasn't very hot on hygiene? Has anyone else any experience of this place? Their prices look so good, but if it's filthy I'll give it a miss! (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by InHongKong06 (1315 days ago) Do you know in Khoob Surat there is no water source ... the water comes in by the bucket from elsewhere. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mazzelkont (1314 days ago) Well you end up paying either the "darkside prices" (20-60 dollars) vs. the salon prices (200+ dollars) for threading. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by ritad (1314 days ago) anyone knows reenas price list..for full face threading..and her contat number (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by ritad (1314 days ago) by the way..i had shabnum and allth esisters do my threading..i think they used to be really good..and then they kind of started tos lack...so i stopped going..but they are cheap..hygenie..well iwent there so many times..it is okay... (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by bban (1314 days ago) Alright, this is long overdue; I should have posted this a long time ago. Khoob Surat was recommended to me by Gandalf almost a year ago (I started this thread asking for recommendations) and I have been going to her very regularly since then and I am very happy. But there are some things to keep in mind. Most people (as far as I can tell) go there either for threading or waxing. She has a very large, loyal and satisfied clientele who are mostly Indian (I've probably never seen a white person there, occasionally Phillipina and Chinese). Is hygiene an issue? Well not really for me since I just go there for threading and don't really care where the water comes from. But it is located in Mirador mansion - so what do you expect. But if you can negotiate your way through the corridors and stairs of Mirador, trust me you'll be fine in her place as well. After all there's a reason why her prices are so low. What matters is her skill which is very good. She's a pro at threading. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by soon-to-wed (1314 days ago) Thanks bban, I'm going to give it a go. (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by kainaz (1294 days ago) hi, (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by twillis (1273 days ago) I have been going to Khoob Surat for 3 years and I am english & white. No one stares! I like the place and would definitely defend their reputation too. No nonsense beauty treatment.. If you want huge floral arrangements on reception, fawning therapists & fancy interiors, you are definitely going to the wrong place. It's a bit rough and ready & they wax fast & furious ( 15 minutes, full leg!) with a butter knife and what I can only imagine is toffee . Not for the faint-hearted. Their waxing is great & I have never had a pore problem from it the whole time. They do a good job. Her eyebrow threading's spot on too! (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by christinetse (1253 days ago) The Indian salon in Wanchai - Tamana, does anyone have more info? Do they do threading? Where abouts are they? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by orangemoon (1253 days ago) yes, they do the threading at Tammana. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by susan.mcmullen (1250 days ago) this is a strange question but what is threading? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by ritad (1250 days ago) they use thread to remove your hair...it is the best..you should try it....plucking still looks ugly..but threading no trace..i love it...it is an old form of removing hair...and all natural...... (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by LucyUK (1236 days ago) I went to Khoob Surat in Mirador Mansions, TST recently, and I have to say that I didn't have a great experience. The place was exactly as I expected, so no surprises as I was not expecting plush carpeting and soft music, but the young woman who did my bikini wax was without doubt very inexperienced and I felt just like a guinea pig. When I made the appointment I asked for Kinu, as advised on here, but she seemed a bit too busy on ICQ or Messenger. The same young woman did my pedicure, and on closer inspection it was second rate at best. Another employee arrived during my pedicure and she threaded my eyebrows (even after I'd asked for a second time for Kinu to do them) and she actually did a very good job. Unfortunately the only thing I would recommend about them is their low prices. (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by maya (1235 days ago) if you are looking for indian dresses and tailoring service for women then please call me at 62217548 (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by shikha lamba (1229 days ago) Has anyone tried out the indian parlour in Wanchai called tamana? Any recommendations for people there? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by breeze (1229 days ago) yes , i have tried... nothing fancy ....but u can go for threadings and waxings.... (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by beautyspy (1228 days ago) I went a beauty salon last week and I saw indian clients there ,but they all looks beautiful and elegant,as I asked my beautician what kind of treatments they come for ? She just told me they told face and body treatments.......anyway their services are professional and pretty good. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Sukhi (1216 days ago) I have been going to a indian beauty parlour in Wanchai called Riveia Beauty Parlour. Reena is the person who is working other. I must admit that the place is very clean and has a very nice decoration and air con on all the time with some good indian music if you are indian or good english music if you are white. The prices are reasonable. Whole face threading is about $70 and she also offers facials, waxings and hair treatments. The best thing is that you don't have to wait as she books you an appointment according to what you need to do. I would say that this is the best parlour I have ever been to in Hong Kong ever since. It's also very near from where I work in Central - 15 mins by tram. Please send me a msg if you need her contacts. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by LucyUK (1216 days ago) Please post phone number and address and an idea of where it's near to. Thanks. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by cym (1216 days ago) anyoneknowany person in central for threading ??thanks (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by singhs (1211 days ago) Hi Sukhi (I am based in Unspecified) Posted by chiki (965 days ago) anyone can vouch for Tammana and Reveiva for eyebrow threading? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mamadavid (965 days ago) Do any of these places do Indian head massages? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Taps (964 days ago) Tried threading in Mirador, I went to the second floor if I'm not mistaken, it cost 50HK dollar. (I am based in Guangzhou) Posted by Daizy (964 days ago) I noticed that the regular salon that I go to isn't mentioned here. I go to a place in TST called Fareeda's Salon. Before Fareeda's I went to Khoobsurat for a quick eyebrow fix and no waxing befcause honestly that place is a mess. However Fareeda's is great, its in an apartment with the main livingroom turned into a manicure, haircut/hair style place, 1 bedroom for waxing (lots of privacy) another bedroom for facials and it has a proper bathroom and kitchen. Its not a one woman show either, they have a couple of girls working there. They offer 3 types of wax for waxing and you can choose what type you want. The prices are similar to other Indian salons so its not expensive at all. Its located right infront of the TST mosque I can't remember the name of the building but this is their number and you can walk in or make an appointment. I usually call 10 minutes before going there 35800447. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by sunita26 (964 days ago) hi sukhi (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by breeze (964 days ago) Hi sunita, (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by dio78 (964 days ago) Tried threading and body waxing in central and i like it very much. The lady who did my threading is lavina. She was very good and i am very happy with her work. The wax they use is from london and the feeling is good after waxing. Give her a call at 9364 5271. (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by Hyperactivebunny (959 days ago) dio, how much do they charge for threading in central??? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Taps (958 days ago) While in HK, I visited Mirador, the Indian lady on the second F. (I am based in Guangzhou) Posted by dio78 (958 days ago) Hi Hyperactivebunny, they are very reasonable.you can contact them directly for prices, because they will give you discount depending which and how many treatments you do.I am thinking to buy a package so they will give more discount! (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by chiki (958 days ago) hehe nice taps - if only we could all go to Guangzhou! :) (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by kavi_ab (955 days ago) Hi, does anyone have contact details for the Riveia beauty salon mentioned by Suki above? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Aulelei (853 days ago) Hi Kavi (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by chiki (832 days ago) quick question - why would anyone want to thread their whole face? if you happen to be caught on vacation without a threading salon to go to, wouldnt ur hair grow and cover your entire face? curious... (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mayita (832 days ago) Threading, when correctly done, does not break the hairs. Same as waxing. (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by southernside (829 days ago) hi there! La Bellezza in TST is also quite good. Have been going to them since the last 5 yrs. Girl called samar does gr8 eyebrows. She's a bit talkative and can be little irritating some times, but she does good eyebrows. Its in the same bldg as the Hindu Temple in CARNAVARON MANSION on the 7th floor. Can contact the owner Preeti on23679497 or 98038790 for appointment. The other girl Ruby who used to be there earlier is not there now. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by 1975 (796 days ago) Can I just second the vote on Riveia Salon in Wanchai. Just been there myself and right now she's got this special going where you get threading included with a full one hour facial for around 150 dollars. It was out of this world - probably even better than the one I had recently a top hotel spa. Am amazed. This has to be the bargain of the year. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by rst (784 days ago) threading is good in Khoob Surat; (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by maya (725 days ago) Hi Ladies ! (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by berrysweet (724 days ago) I don't know if Khoobsurat is Indian salon but i think they do ayurvedic treatments and threading too.

Posted by Chilli (458 days ago) I used to go to Reena at Rivea. At first I thought she was great.........She gives you an appointment time and tells you clearly on the phone not to be late however, the last 3 times I went she kept me waiting and waiting. As I work and used to go at lunchtime it started to really get on my nerves. The final straw was when she forgot 2 appointments she had with me in a row! She is basically a victim of her own success and cannot handle the amount of customers she has. I did not even get a sorry. A number of my friends had similar experiences. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by sonia_b (458 days ago) hi chilli, (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by charllote (456 days ago) I have been going to beaute par zai because they have more than 1 qualified therapists. Thier services are good and prices are resoanable. You won't have problem making appointments. They are located near central MTR. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by sapphire26 (452 days ago) Hi Veeveeaan! (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mayita (293 days ago)
(I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mayita (293 days ago) February 2009 : UPDATE about INDIAN BEAUTY PARLOUR: (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by CottonMouse (280 days ago) Don't bother going to Reena at Rivea, like Chilli (above) I used to go there too. As an Expat, I am very busy and do not have time to wait endlessly. I used to go to Reena as she would set me an appointment but honestly, the last 3 times I have had to sit there and wait for at least 45 minutes both times. Whats the point in setting an appointment if you can't keep it. Even Doctors are more on time than her! The last time she kept me waiting for 20 minutes before she even turned up. I was ringing and ringing her cell and she just didn't answer. I didn't get a sorry either and after an hour of waiting she charged me full price! I was late to my next appointment and the constant stories about why she is late is just tyring. To be honest, she has no idea of how to run a business. Her shop is really small up some dirty old Chinese building too with little to no privacy in the most tiny cubicles. No cream after the waxing either, if you want it you need to ask for it. Otherwise you get a dirty old wet towel that she brushes down your body. Yuck! At first I didn't mind so much, but its just not worth the bother anymore. Save yourself the hassle and go somewhere else. (I am based in Hong Kong)
Posted by bban (279 days ago) Does anyone know of an Indian beauty parlor in the Tai Po/Fotan/Shatin area? Or maybe know of someone who is willing to come to the house to do waxing and threading? I moved from Kowloon to Tai Po and I'm finding it increasingly difficult to go to TST on a regular basis to get my eyebrows done. Thanks! (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by sonia_b (279 days ago) Hi Cotton Mouse, (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Delon (275 days ago) Hi Cotton, (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by swimordie (270 days ago) Has anyone gotten their haircut at one of these places? I see they offer it, but not sure if they are any good? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by mayita (266 days ago) No idea, Swimordie... what about checking how they perform on other customers while having threading or any other menial beauty treatment done ? (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by kardi08 (137 days ago) Got a lot of information from this post so thot I would put in my feedback. Have been going to Reena in Wanchai for some time now, she is good but is completely inflexible about availability, I work and cant make it on weekedays and she is available only for half days on saturday. plus she keeps getting these new women and she wants you to allow them to 'practice' on you, last time this woman did my threading and god did it hurt, I had to stop her. Its quite frustrating cos i feel like she is the client rather than me, am looking for option on HK island. (I am based in Hong Kong) Posted by Ruby Gillz (136 days ago) I recently went to newly open parlour "LOOKS". they are very good and service is also exellent.
