Ziba Beauty Salon (South Coast)

Say goodbye to those bushy caterpillars that hover over your eyes! Ziba's stylists are threading wizards that shape and sculpt your brows to perfection.

Threading is an Indian tradition that's growing in popularity in the US. Despite the demand, it's hard to find a salon of this caliber (I've discovered that many threading artists do this out of their own homes or video shops - seriously!).

All of Ziba's stylists are carefully trained in the "Art of Threading" (yes, there's a school for it!) I haven't had one bad experience at Ziba...not one!

Although all of the artists are good, my favorite Ziba girl is Mumta! First, she studied my face and then went at it with her single piece of thread, giving me the perfect arch to compliment my face shape! It's an amazing craft that takes only a few minutes. Threading is far less painful than getting your eyebrows waxed (and it's supposed to be healthier for hair growth - no ingrown hairs!) Plus, it's way cheaper - Only $10 (but don't forget to include tip too!)

I love this place so much that even after I moved to the Bay Area (I'm still looking for a good place to go -- any suggestions out there?), I get my eyebrows done EVERY single time I visit Orange County! That's how loyal I am! Crazy...yes!!!

*My one recommendation and irritation (thus the 4.5 stars) with this place is that it gets really crowded so the wait can get a bit annoying...even though it's well worth it! I suggest going right when the salon opens!
