How I Found the Queen of Eyebrow Threading in the Heart of Commack — and Why You Should Too
Let me start by saying this: I am not a girly girl. The time, energy, and money it takes to stay on top of beauty maintenance — hair, nails, skincare — has never quite stuck with me. I’m built for speed and comfort. But there’s one exception: eyebrow threading and thankfully, I’ve finally found the perfect spot… Nina’s Herbal Salon & Spa.
Years ago, a friend dragged me to get my eyebrows threaded, and even though I had no idea what I was getting myself into, I agreed. If I had done even a quick Google search, I would’ve learned that eyebrow threading is an ancient hair removal technique using a twisted thread to pull out hair directly from the follicle — a method that originated in the Middle East and South Asia.
Was it a little painful? Sure. But the results? Flawless. So I kept going back — until, one day, our trusted brow threader vanished without a trace. We tried a few new places, but none felt quite right, and I eventually gave up the search.
Enter Nina: The Brow Whisperer
Fast forward to today, and I’ve stumbled upon an absolute gem: Nina’s Herbal Salon & Spa in Commack. And let me tell you — this woman is the real deal.
Nina has been threading eyebrows for over 35 years, with her Commack location running strong for 19 years and a second salon in Hicksville open for the past 10. The moment I stepped into her salon, I could feel the difference. The space was warm and welcoming, just like Nina herself. Her love for what she does is clear — even her 20-year-old plants feel like part of the family.
A Pain-Free, Trust-Filled Experience
Sitting in Nina’s chair felt like reconnecting with an old friend. She immediately put me at ease, chatting gently as she worked, and offered a helpful tip: the tighter you hold your eyelid, the less it hurts. She was right. I didn’t tear up once — a first for me.
In less than a few minutes, my brows were perfectly shaped, and she finished with a gentle swipe of rose water to calm the skin. It was such a lovely experience that I immediately texted my best friend to let her know that we have officially found our Eyebrow Threading Queen!
Needless to say, we’ll both be loyal customers now.
Beauty Tips & Treatments Beyond Brows
Nina doesn’t just shape brows — she shares wisdom. I told her about my thin brows, and she recommended castor oil to help promote growth. She even sells an organic version in the salon for just $10 — of course, I bought it and have been using it nightly ever since.
But the magic of Nina’s Herbal Salon & Spa doesn’t stop there. Her full-service menu includes:
Facials
Blow outs & haircuts
Hot oil hair treatments
Waxing
Wedding & special event makeup
Henna tattoos …and more.
