It is probably safe to say that waxing is not the most enjoyable beauty routine we inflict on ourselves. Luckily, however, there are some very smart salons out there that know how to jazz up the experience, including these three delights.
Miss Fox
The beautifully decorated vintage-esque salon is famed for their world-class beauty therapists and high quality services. Their extensive Female and Male waxing menu covers every inch of the human body.
When you are done you can celebrate your new hair free bod with a champagne or martini at their very own bar located on the first floor.
Miss Fox, Levels 1, 2 and 3, 285 Little Collins Street, Melbourne. Phone 1300 MISS FOX (1300 64 77 36)
Pretty Kitty
If you are going to get a Brazilian wax, you want a specialist, right? Well you can’t get more specialist than this salon. The ladies at Pretty Kitty are dedicated bikini waxers. Not only that but they have developed their own special technique that cuts down on waxing time to around 10 minutes! No more 40 minute torture sessions.
Also on offer is the latest celebrity obsession, Vejazzling, for those special occasions.
Pretty Kitty is located in Morley, Western Australia. Strictly appointment only, Phone 0450 165 007
