Let's Thread In Narsih Salon

  For you my loyal readers, i'm sure you guys know several times in my blog posts i told you my eyebrows are unruly. I really want to do threading but i didn't have time because all of this college thingy. So two days ago, i had a chance to did it and i threaded my eyebrows at Narsih Salon.

  Tell me i'm so out of date, i recently known this place approximately around three months ago from my neighbour. I always adore her eyebrows and i thought it's her brow natural shape. Someday, i asked her that is she know the best place to threading beside Browhaus? 

  Okay, all of you must be familiar with Browhaus because it's the best and expensive place for waxing and threading. Last year, once i asked for a price at Browhaus, it's around 200k for only threading. I gotta admit, if i have to thread my eyebrows once in a two months, i can't afford it. Hey, i'm still a student. I get  money from my parents and i won't say 'mom, i need threading fee every two months'. Bleh.

  Back then, my neighbour mentioned Narsih Salon. I was thinking so hard at this time. What kind Salon of with that old - fashioned name? Then, i had a researched on the internet and i was quite suprised because it's a famous, legendary waxing and threading place in town with maximum services. Another plus is, it's suitbale for low budget person like me!  Don't ever thinking about big salon at the centre of town. It's just an ordinary house that has small salon for threading and waxing and the access to that place is quite difficult. I once went there with my mom before Eid-al-Adha and whoa, it was full-booked! There were more than 70 people waiting for their chance. I was shocked and didn't expect that. After that day, my curiousity getting increase and increase. I've been wanting to try their service and finally, twi days ago my wish came true.

  I arrived there around 9 o'clock, i thought i was too early but the fact i wasn't. There's already three ladies had waxing and threading. Many people said if you want to do threading, you better try Mrs. Narsih's hand because you will content with the results, but at that day bu Narsih was absent. So another person take my eyebrows and i'm still feeling content. The place is also clean and exclusive for women. Before you had a treatment, you have to write your name and what would you like done in a small book in front of the house. Another things that i like is the staff are nice and friendly and really know their stuff. They seem to be treated well by the owner and you can tell by how they treat each other and the customers.

  

  After i write in a small book, the staff started to do their job. If any beauty salon do threading eyebrows with tweezer, it's different in here. They do it with white string. 

    It's not that hurts like when i had threading with tweezer and they did it fast, around 15 minutes for couple of eyebrows. The results is great. My eyebrows is arched down and they can make it up! Looove this place and definitely will go back some time. By the way, for a price, you just have to pay Rp. 30.000 for threading eyebrows. They open everyday at 9 am until 6 pm.

Best Beauty Salon in Town!

Hello! After long long loooong time no post, finally i'm back again. By the way, start from now i will post with bahasa for nasionalism reason. Yes, fellas. Jadi dari kemarin tuh aku lagi semedi mikirin mau ngelanjutin blog ku tetep pake english atau ganti dengan bahasa, atau dua - duanya. Bukan apa - apa, bahasa inggrisku emang nggak begitu bagus dan aku pikir, nggak ada salahnya toh post dengan bahasa. Toh, itu bisa lebih meninggikan rasa nasionalisku hehehe.

Oke, kali ini aku mau nge - review salon favorit aku kalau aku ke Bandung. Namanya emang agak cheesy, Salon Memori.

Salon ini udah ada dari jaman papa - mamaku pacaran pas kuliah dulu, bahkan udah ada dari jaman nenekku. So yes, this place is a legend i think. Dulu waktu awal - awal tempatnya bukan di Dago atas, tapi di suatu daerah yang aku sendiri lupa namanya dan katanya kecil banget. Kalau kamu sekarang kesana, you can see this place is big as another famous salon in Jakarta.

Kalau aku ke Bandung, aku nggak akan pernah ngelewatin kesempatan buat treatment disini, either cuma sekedar hair spa, creambath, atau meni - pedi. Yang aku suka dari salon ini adalah harganya murah banget! Bayangin aja, hair mask cuma seharga Rp. 32.500! Itu semua udah termasuk blow kering (pasti tau dong salon yang cuma nge blow rambut setengah kering) dan hair tonik. Oya, krim buat hair spa yang dipake adalah produk dari Wella.

Pegawai di salon ini semuanya baik - baik dan ramah, dari dulu sampe sekarang mamaku bilang dia nggak pernah nemuin pegawai yang sombong atau pun suka meremehkan pelanggan. Yap, kadang kita suka nemu kan pegawai salon yang kalau liat orang pake baju ala kadarnya kayak hotpants, t-shirt, dan flip - flop terus mereka suka menganggap pelanggan itu bukan dari kalangan berada. Di salon Memori kita nggak akan nemuin kasus seperti itu. Soal tip pun begitu, mereka nggak maksa. Kalau dikasih ya sukur, kalau nggak ya nggak akan ngedumel atau ngambek.

Hal lain yang aku suka dari salon ini adalah nge-blownya nggak sakit, pelan dan nggak ditarik - tarik. Walaupun begitu, hasil blownya tahan sampe 3 hari, lho buat yang rambutnya wavy dan ngembang banget seperti aku.

Selain hair mask, treatment andalanku adalah meni - pedi. Hal akhirnya baguus banget, jari - jari tangan dan kaki keliatan bersih terus ada warna slide of pinkish-nya. Produk yang mereka pakai emang bukan produk high-end brand macam OPI, Essie, dll. Yang drugstore brand aja kayak Revlon atau Faceshop. Prinsip mereka, yang penting murah tapi kualitasnya bagus daripada pakai yang high-end tapi ternyata palsu. Hmm, sayangnya di Jakarta kita jarang banget nemuin salon dengan kualitas bagus tapi tetap bikin kantong 'sehat'.

  Ada yang tau mungkin salon yang berkualitas baik tapi affordable di Jakarta?
