Warren Couple Opens New Threading Business and Boutique

A Warren couple recently decided to follow their dreams together by collaborating their businesses and talents to open a new store in Warren.

Sanju and Jas Kohli have worked separately for the last 10 years. Over the years, Sanju has built a client base in the East Bay by renting a chair to do eyebrow threading at in Warren while her husband Jas has worked on the road and out of a small office on Cutler Street in Warren selling jewelry. 

The Kohlis always had a vision of owning their own business and finding a way to combine their business strengths. So when the opportunity to purchase a storefront on Metacom Avenue in Warren opened up, they jumped at the opportunity.

"The idea has been a few years in the making," Jas said. "When we found out this place was available, we knew we had to just do it."

The couple's new business, Sanju's Threading & Boutique(across the street from ) not only serves as a location for Sanju's client base to make threading appointments, but also provides Jas with a storefront to sell his jewelry.

One of Sanju's clients, Amanda Forte, said she loves the idea of combining a boutique with an eyebrow threading business. Sanju said many of her clients agree with Forte and enjoy the fact that they can browse and buy while they wait for their appointment.

According to Jas, the boutique side of the store will be continuously evolving to fit customer wants and needs.

"I never used to sell bags but now that we have a storefront and don't have to worry about setting up and then packing it up after a show is over, we can offer different items," Jas said.

In addition to handbags and jewelry, which Jas said are popular among the customers, Jas has added scarves, crystals and plans to begin bringing in magnetic healing jewelry. He said he also plans to create areas dedicated to Om and Ganesha.

Just three months in, Sanju says business is already going well.

"It has worked out well and we had a smooth transition," she said. "We're still getting new customers and we're always evolving and changing to adapt. Hopefully more people will stop in to visit us during the holiday season."
