Mia Rutherford

The only place I trust for all my hair removal needs! Sumana was detail oriented and thorough for my eyebrow and lip threading, and kept the same energy for my Brazilian. She is also very kind! I will ALWAYS come to silky smooth

Laura Loys

Love how they do my eyebrows, love the customer service and it's safe. They have a hand sanitizer you pump with your foot and they steam you down with alcohol before they get started. The lady threading also wears a mask and a face shield.

Suzette Schmidt

I made a late appointment for sugaring for my daughter and I was very happy with the results. I will be making an appointment this week for full leg, under arm strip sugaring. Thank you for being patient.

Frances Krupkin

Love coming here for eyebrow threading. It is always well done with shaping and cleaning up my brows. Also usually very quick in and out.

Nisha Desai

Always pleased with the services but wait times are too long for eyebrows and other threading services - I end up waiting 30 minutes or more each time I go. Most other places have an online reservation system, especially after COVID. They should try something similar or hire more people.

Chimere DeVane

Been going here for years. I typically get threading and a sugaring/Brazilian. The spa is really clean (no double dipping) and the service is always excellent.

Pia Bacolod

I regularly come here to get my eyebrows threaded. They do a great job in shaping, and cleaning up. They usually put some rose water right after, but I have sensitive skin. So when I get home I usually put on some Vaseline and it helps with any redness that I tend to get after threading or waxing.

Sharon Chikuta

Asmita is the best! She was kind and kept checking to see if I was comfortable and ok. My hair is also thick and she did her thing and I left spotless. 100% recommend for Brazilian wax!!

Christine Drummond

I had an eyebrow tint and threading. Turned out exactly as I asked for. Lovely staff and premises

Tamara Jones

I had my very first Brazilian wax with Asmita. Best experience. I was so nervous, but she was very gentle and explained it would not hurt. She was right, it was just quick pain. She was very professional and very quick. Kudos to her.

Nikita Kuk

I love getting my eyebrows done here!! Been getting my brows threaded for years and this is by far the best place to to! Janaki is amazing and always does an impeccable job. Can’t recommend this place enough.

Yasmin Hajj

Best eyebrow place in dc!!! Very good at cleaning and shaping without thinning. Highly reccommend

M D

Krishna is my go-to. She is amazing at what she does and the only one I'll go to for my Brazilians!

Livia Matteucci

I LOVE this place! Silky Smooth is my favorite place to take care of my stubborn, bushy eyebrows. I have been going there for my eyebrows for the past year and a half and have always left satisfied. I never have to wait more than a couple minutes to be seen, and the ladies always do excellent work to make sure my eyebrows are just the way I like them. I typically see Babita, who is always so friendly and meticulous. My eyebrow shape has definitely improved as a result of going there regularly! 100% recommend.

Isabel Nair

I love Silky Smooth! Have been going there for many years. Always courteous, fast, and clean during COVID. All their services from threading to body wax are great. 10/10 recommend

Gabrielle Doria Rhoads

I get my brows threaded here and they always look great, and I’ve always gotten helped very quickly even as a walk in. They also do punch cards for brows which is nice

Shelby Brown

Very nice people, relatively clean, last time I went though the woman burned me and didn’t get everything. Very painful and sticky, not like some other wax specialists I’ve had. They seem more skilled at threading.

Christine Lopez K

I'm torn. I have had my eyelashes and eyebrows tinted, and well as brows threaded, at silky smooth several times. The first few times, I was pleased and actually felt the services were better than high end salons that provide the same services. However, the past few times the services have been inconsistent and highly dependent on the individual providing the services. Unevenly colored brows. Bluntly ended brows. Lashes that are not anywhere black. I definitely don't go out of my way to come here anymore and often find myself nearby, needing tinting, and still not stopping in.

Sonia L

5 stars for the sugar waxing, which I’ve always had a good experienced with and is well priced. 2.5 stars for the threading, which is often done by inexperienced threaders and overpriced.

Jessica Elfrink

Love this place! Sugaring is so much better for you than waxing and they take their jobs seriously. Everyone seems like they enjoy working there and are super friendly. It's very clean too! I feel comfortable and they always work quickly which I appreciate :)

I called and made an appointment. The lady had no idea who I was when I arrived at that time. Fine, she still had time and space for me. I asked for a sugaring, underarm and Brazilian. I am still red and sore 3 days later. That never happens to me unless cheap wax is used the waxist tears too much or it's too hot. I asked for aloe or something St the end and she said they just use antiseptic while extolling the virtues of aloe on skin. So while she was nice and seemed thorough, my delicate areas cannot recommend this place. Sugaring should be a gentle hair removal method better for sensitive skin, not here, which makes me question what she used on me.

Chocolate Sprinkles

I was 10 minute late due to traffic but she didn’t show any irritation like some places does. I’ve never gotten my eyebrows done because I don’t trust anyone touching my face and brows but she did a great job, she somehow gave me a cute little arch that I didn’t even know was there. My eyebrows were uneven and was afraid the unevenness would be more defined but she somehow made them more symmetrical. 100% would come back.

Sonya Mattis

Hello, I literally just left this place and it was honestly so wonderful. I had a great experience with a simple threading. Honestly painless after 3 months of not getting my brows done. I finished in literally 5 minutes and I felt a slight pinch. I'm very happy with this service and I will most definitely be back.

Gauri Bhatnagar

I have been looking for the best place to get my eyebrows threaded. As an Indian woman, this is crucial (lol). They are always amazing!! Consistently happy with the results and honestly, I don’t need to go to just one person because everyone is great!

Leslie Mo

I just left my appointment, this business just reopened two days ago. I've come here on and off for a few years. I feel fairly comfortable with their cleaning protocols that I felt all they needed to add is masks to the mix to fit my risk profile. They can't reuse the wax sticks, and have paper on the table and disinfect between customers for waxing. On the counters you can see scissors and brow brushes in barbicide. Anyways when I arrived it was just me and one other client finishing up. Masks are required to enter. The other patron, as well as the owner were wearing them. I was asked to sanitize my hand, the dispenser having a foot pedal which I really appreciate. I had my temperature taken and was asked to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise in an alcohol aerosol machine before my appointment. I was curious to see how they would manage threading since generally the thread goes in the mouth, but the adapted technique to not do this which was great. I've never had a bad experience here and felt I should review for COVID-19 concerns just in case it's a concern for other customers.

Mireia Buti

My favorite place to get my brows done. They always have a spot without any reservations, they are fast and good price. I always leave happy with my perfect brows. I don't have any preference, always go with whoever is available and never left disappointed. Highly recommend!

Shanita Rasheed

I visited Silky Smooth twice and although the staff were sweet and accommodating, they aren't as thorough when it comes to waxing down below. Both times I didn't realize how unsatisfactory the job was until I got home. I visited this spa because my regular esthetician was booked but she does a more thorough job and is less expensive. However, Silky Smooth has a good homemade sugar wax. I would suggest Silky Smooth try to be as thorough as possible when it comes to Brazilians.

Maria K

Very nice experience! I had Babita, and I wanted to get an eyebrow waxing, but she explained to me that threading was much better (which I had never done before), so I decided to go for it, and she made me so comfortable. I was a little scared but she helped me through it. Very much appreciated, and good job on the brows, which is hard to find! I will definitely be coming back!

Sabella Radostitz

I'm so thankful I found this place! searched everywhere in DC trying to find somewhere that wasn't costing $80 for a Brazilian....until I came up on silky smooth. I decided to come in one day which happened to be the first day it was opened with my sister! We both got a Brazilian with silky (who is the owner). And that was the best choice we've ever made! It was less than $80 and we even got student discounts (which I didn't know stores even did that)......she didn't just wax us she told us how we can take care of it after and what we can do for the best long lasting result...which was great! And now a year later I still come here. Great customer service, amazing staff and everything gets done fast! PS : Silky makes her own sugar paste at home which is 100% organic . They have a lot more services than waxing and sugaring . They them out you won't regret .

Nefertiti B

The location was very clean, I also love the COVID-19 protocols that are in place. The staff was very accommodating and professional. I booked a sugaring wax, but I was given a strip wax instead (due to excess hair growth—it’s been a while). The only negative is, I immediately developed folliculitus after the service and I am two days shY of two weeks since the service and it has only gotten worst. I am trying all of the home remedies to lessen the symptoms to no avail 🥺. I’m hoping for relief very soon— I am so uncomfortable.

Emily Golding

Silky Smooth is wonderful! I always have a great experience. They are taking extra precautions in light of COVID, including mandatory temperature taking upon arrival, as well as requiring hand sanitizer, standing in front of a sanitizing machine, and wearing a mask. I felt so safe and comfortable! Also, best sugar wax in DC!! My experience has always been amazing

Polina Blintsovskaya

This is my favorite threading/facial hair removal place in DC. I don't know whether the girls at Silky Smooth use different materials and/or techniques than other threading vendors, but the way they do it is not only more efficient and quick, but also much less painful than other places, at least for me.

Sara

Been going here to get my eyebrows done recently. Love this place; they are definitely the best spot for eyebrow threading in Dupont! Avoid Dupont Threading and come here instead!!

Amber S

I've been going to Silky Smooth for Brazilian waxes for about 5 months now, and I would definitely recommend their services! They are always so friendly, timely and professional. Their salon is clean, and they use high quality products. I have had a variety of technicians, and all have been equally great!

I recently moved to the Washington DC and was in desperate need of a good wax place. Finding the best wax place was important to me as I tend to be a bit particular about these type of services. I'm kinda attached to my lady back at home, and was worried about how I would find a place here in DC. Honestly, this place was my second choice and I ended up going to Dupont Threading as it was closer to work Place . After walking 15 minutes in the rain I noticed my first choice was closed! Hours stated on the sign, that they were open but doors were locked. I was confused and annoyed because looking into the window it was visible that people were clearly there. So I was off to my second choice (Silky Smooth DC) and SO happy I did! My Experience at Silky Smooth DC: *Front desk girl was sweet and very welcoming! *I only had to wait for ten minutes but please make an appt if you can. They didn't seem too busy due to the rain so I think thats why I didn't have to wait that long. *Silky did my eyebrows and I LOVED her!! She was very personable and she made me feel comfortable (almost like a sisterly feeling about her) We had good conversation :) *She gave me a couple samples of lotion...which I enjoyed! I plan on getting more services here during my stay here :) I had a great experience!

I am a WoC with really coarse body hairs (face & bikini). After calling a few salons, the young lady on the phone assured me she and her team worked very well with coarse hairs. I arrived at the salon and was surprised to be the only client. A young lady named Krishna quickly and careful handled my facial wax and a threading clean up. She made me check to see if any hairs were missed; my facial was well removed. I'm visiting from out of town and hope I can find someone as satisfactory in Atlanta. I will definitely return anytime I'm back in the city :)

Adesuwa Joseph

I'm visiting DC for the week and desperately needed to get my brows done. The ladies here were nice, clearly knowledgeable about eyebrows as far as working according to shape, length etc. I was in and out with great service. Also, if you use Apple Pay they accept it! A definite bonus.

Jaime Brown

One stop shop for wax and brow threading. I love coming here. They slay my brows EVERY TIME. My come out feeling like a brand new woman! Highly recommended.

Gabriela Mateo

I went here for a Brazilian and underarm wax for the first time this week. I'm used to doing cold sugar wax in my country which it has been impossible to find in USA, this warm sugar wax is as close as it gets, extremely minimal pain, no burns and experienced no irritation to my very sensible skin. Just make sure you ask for Krishna, she is lovely super light hands, amicable and clearly very experienced by the way she worked my skin. I loved it!!

Chantae Campbell

This was my first time getting a Brazilian wax and the technicians made me feel extremely comfortable. They worked quickly and gave me clear instructions for after care. I will definitely return.

Myk M

Got my brows done by the owner Silky. She checked my brows into rehab. They look great, exactly what I wanted. Affordable little luxury. Miminal wait, clean place, with relaxing music. I will return.

Madeline LaPatra

I have been coming to Silky Smooth for a year now and it is so clean and all the staff are amazing. Asmita is so efficient and professional, highly recommend her for sugaring!

Lianna Salva

Quick, professional, clean, trustworthy, and friendly. Everything you could ever want from an otherwise painful experience (the things we do for beauty). Definitely will return to this salon in the future.

Eliel Peterson

Amazing experience, i went in there to get sugaring on my sideburns. The staff was very professional and told me because i regulary shave, it would complicate my sugaring experince. They recommended i wax and then when hair grows back, come and get sugaring. I really admire the honesty and my waxing experience was great. They also give free water so thats a +

Lola Pola

I have been coming here for almost two years and I would trust Babita with my life now. I came to her with horrible uneven eyebrows and her light hands have given me PERFECT eyebrows. She always does them exactly how I tell her to. Great experience.

Rachana Hanspal

I have been there twice for my eyebrows and was totally satisfied. I would recommend Silky Smooth to anyone looking for pampering herself. The owner is friendly and the atmosphere is clean.

Waleska Solorzano

I have been going to Silky Smooth for over three years, and I have no complaints. The staff is attentive and professional. They also adhere to stringent COVID-19 restrictions, which I appreciate.
