Wax In The City

05/05/2008 Posted by anira

Wax in the City is the spa I've been waiting for. I first started getting my legs waxed when I was 14 (I was weird) and 10 years later this is the best place I've ever been. I've heard a lot of waxing horror stories that were mostly due to the inexperience of the aesthetician, but that will never happen here. Waxing is not supposed to make you scream, no matter what anyone tells you. You will pay the same price here as you will at a regular spa where the aesthetician does NOT specialize in waxing, so why risk it? I've gotten the best and quickest brazilians here -- minimal pain, results lasted forever, and Leah is FAST. My only critique is that the receptionist seemed shy and quiet instead of friendly and outgoing.

Pros: Great price, good location, they specialize in the fine art of waxing, open 7 days

Cons: Parking can be tricky

I have been going to Wax In The City for a while now to get my brows done. I always see Melissa, and she always does an amazing job - I've even gotten compliments on them! I have referred friends to her and know they've all been satisfied with their brows and bikini lines. She always checks that everything was removed, does a bit of tweezing to ensure perfect shaping, and is quick and as painless as having hair ripped out from the root can be. Whenever I arrive, I'm greeted right away, given the form to fill out, and offered a cold drink. Though they do sell their own brand of products there, I've never been pressured in any way to buy anything. My service is always quick, friendly (I'm amazed at how much she remembers about me from my semi-monthly visits!) and reasonably priced. I love the "no tipping" policy - it eliminates that awkward decision on what the "right" amount is. I'll never go anywhere else!

Pros: Great service, friendly, clean

Cons: Parking can be a pain during the workday or Rockies games.

Wax in the City is the only place I'll ever go to get any waxing, ever! I've been other places, while traveling, and can say without hesitation that they are heads and tails above the rest. I never pick a specific cerologist, so I've used many of them, and have only positive things to say about those who I've used. Don't make the mistake of going anywhere else--I wish I hadn't!

I love, love, love Courtney at Wax in the City! She is a wonderful waxer and a very friendly person. I've been going to Wax in the City for a year and I have never been disappointed. They are fast, conveniently located, experienced and professional. I would highly recommend them to my friends.

Pros: Freiendly, affordable, skilled technicians

Cons: Below a noisy Aveda Hair Salon- often very loud thumps because of this

I booked a Brazilian wax several weeks ago and liked the professional staff on the phone. They asked some basic but pertinent questions and gave me the date and time that worked for my schedule. While orginally scheduled with Courtney, I was taken back by Melissa within 30 seconds of filling out my paperwork. She was gentle, moved quickly but not in a rushed way, chatted with me the whole time while positioning me just right for that special hair removal. Really there was no discomfort, some quick stinging for only a second. I was in and out in 30 minutes, on time for my next errand and felt great. I will return for sure, set up the next visit already.

Pros: Smiling professionals who actually enjoy their jobs, very refreshing!

Cons: Metered parking can be tough, plan for a few extra minutes to get a street spot

I just got my first Brazillian with Jessie Dillard. She was awesome!!!! Not nearly as painful as I thought it would be--She was quick, professional & did a great job making me feel comfortable! Front desk service was great too! Highly recommended!! I will be back!

Pros: Tip included in price

I have moved around the country quite a bit and know how difficult it is to find a quality brazilian wax. I discovered WITC 2 years ago and was thrilled. They use the "blue/gentle" wax for that area, or the yellow with strips depending on your preference. They are thorough and usually quick, but tailor the visit to suit your needs. If you prefer no tweezing just let the cerologist know. The price structure does not allow for tipping, which is handy. I now visit the DTC location and recommend Alex and Kate in particular. There is a 50% off first service coupon on the citysearch website.

Pros: Thorough and quick

Cons: Limited parking @ LoDo location

Krista Staggs is awesome!!!!!!!!!! I'm was new to denver and decided to give this place a try based on reviews.. I am VERY particular about my eyebrows... and Krista got it right the first time around. She listened to what i had to say and gave me an awesome shape without making them too thin. The Staff is also very friendly and eager to help!

I went to Wax in the City to get my brows and bikini done and have been back several times now. I have had a few different girls there and have never been let down. They are fast which kind of worried me the first time, but after looking over everything it was as clean as can be. I'm working my way towards the brazilian and feel confident that they can get the job done. It's also very clean and priced well, but there is a difference in price depending on who you go to.

Pros: clean, fast, good prices

Cons: parking

I've been waxing one thing or another for as long as I can remember so there is a healthy list of women who have waxed the most intimate areas of my body (and in quite a few cities including DC, SF and Rio). I adore most all of them for providing this great service but none of them takes the time and care that Cherri takes. She is as good as it gets!! It is almost a given that after a Brazilian I come home and find a stray hair here or there or straighten up a line. Cheri listens to what I want, asks how satisfied I am while she is working and never misses a hair. If you are the kind of woman who has taken many a friend for her first brazilian, ripped hair out of almost every follicle of your body, live by your tweezers and know exactly what you want your bikini line to look like then you will LOVE Cherri - she gets your obsession and you will never let anyone else touch your bikini line again. She is also fabulous with eyebrows. The no tipping policy is enforced and a great concept. But you will leave thinking that Cherri is worth twice what she costs.

Pros: Cherri, the no tipping policy, the wax they use is awesome
