Hi -

can anyone recommend an eyebrow threading place located in Cork City?

I read that Blue Daisy used to do it but their website says they've shut down since about mid-March.

Everything else I find online seems to be located in Dublin or Galway!

Thanks.

Not sure what it's called but there is a place near Directors Cut and Morleys.
It's upstairs but they usually have a board outside advertising. I haven't tried there though, went in one day to get it done but they were closed. It was a monday but I passed the other day and the board was out so I'm assuming they are still in business.

Karizma turkish barbers on oliver plunkett st. do it for male customers

Roesy - I think you're referring to Glamour Gal Spa & Lash Bar or whatever it's called - the board is out, but their number doesn't seem to be working so I'm not sure if it's still in business or not.

Thanks for the other suggestion (Priya) - is anyone able to recommend it?

I guess beggars aren't choosers though!

Thanks again

There's also a place in Macauley's in Blackpool shopping centre that does it. I would also make sure an Asian person does it as they have the expertise.

Personally, I find the prices charged here horrendous! Usually wait until I go back to London and get it done there. Only £3!

@ previous poster: Threading is an ancient Indian art of hair removal. It involves the practicioner using thread which is 'woven' between the brow hairs and then 'razored' off. Gives a great finish and if done properly should be painless with little or no redness. Much better than plucking or waxing, and the regrowth is finer too. Hope this helps!

Hi Bina84,

i am looking for same. Please let me know if you find a place and how it goes. I also went to the place beside Directors cut but it was closed.

Thanks:)

So, I had my threading done today at Priya by one of the two girls that do it that is more experienced, and I am so angry right now because she doesn't have a fu*king clue!

I showed her a picture of my eyebrows as they were done previously (of course, in London), I told her I want that shape, I don't want to cut down on thickness or length of my eyebrows.

She seemed to have understood what I wanted as she said the only thing I need is a trim, which I agreed with.

When she was done I realized she made my eyebrows look so regular and made them quite a bit shorter than they were, and took out way too much inbetween the eyebrows.

After I told her that, she said that in theory, you have to start the eyebrow at the corner of your eye. I completely disagree with that because if I'm not interested in theory when it comes to beauty, I want done whatever works best with my face.

Anyways, don't go to Priya for the true experience of eyebrow threading because that woman doesn't have a clue about it, or what really beautiful eyebrows are.

Sorry for the poor editing, but anyway, the photo on top are my eyebrows of when I got them done in London at Selfridges, and the two below are of what I have now...two completely different eyebrows and I just can't express how disappointed I am today.

I guess I will have to book flights to London to get anything beauty related done because Cork beauticians/hairdressers/etc. have disappointed me time and time again.

Fantastic, I was had just discovered blue daisy and then found out ye were closed. I went away and got it done in holland and was hoping for a top up but ne...cant wait now

Help - used to go to the brilliant Stephanie at Elle Beauty for my brows (and upper lip...). She seems to have disappeared - phone doesn't ring etc so really need some good recommendations for threading in Cork now please (unless someone knows where she might be gone?). I have thickish brows with a pretty good shape so want someone who won't whip the whole lot off!!

Tried Citywax - don't know who - for the upper lip as a test run and the girl was incredibly slow (and so a million times more painful).

Stephanie is just gone on holiday at the moment, I think she is gone for 3 weeks so she will be back 22nd November. Her number is working though and she has a voicemail message to say when she will be back so here is the number just incase you have the wrong one - 087 9732277!

Now I need to find somewhere to get them done in the mean time :eek:

thanks Evonose!!! that's great.

Must have just been problems with her number in October so as it wasn't even ringing. I tried it again and it's working now like you said. Hurray. I will hold tight until she's back.

thanks again. Calm will once more be restored to my soon-to-be professorial brows...

oooh. yes. my lips are sealed.

have to admit that comment put me off from going there. Janey - I'm easily swayed :-)

Really keen to see how you get on:)
