Bikini Wax Recs?

I live central and I've sorted through some of the yelp reviews but I thought I'd ask you all as well.  Where do you go?  Any place to avoid?

Re: Bikini Wax Recs?

  • Debbie at Salon Aura on Riverside near Barton Springs is great. I highly recommend her. She used to be at Ann Kelso but got out on her own BEFORE the business went belly up.
    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

  • It may be a little north, but I go to Sara at Luster Spa. She was at Avant, but opened up her own place at Salon Republic in North Austin.

  • I've been going to Katy at Oasis on Bee Caves. It's frickin' far for me, but she is seriously the best bikini waxer I have ever known. She's fast too, and cheap. Normally I wouldn't go any place that does nails as well, but she's just that good.

     I've been to the European Wax Center in N Austin, and she did a decent job but her lack of customer service and attempt at upcharging turned me off the place and I likely will not ever go back.

    I might give Sara at Luster a try next though, since I'm also in Salon Republic now.

    Ditto... well, I used her when I use to be able to afford it :(

  • I've gone to Tracy at Beautiful Me on S. Lamar for a brazilian and she was great -- very quick and professional. She does bikini and all kinds of other waxing, too.
  • Angie at Blush is awesome. I have only been to her once for a Brazilian and she makes you feel super comfortable.

  • I want to agree with the above poster who mentioned Beautiful Me on S. Lamar. I had my first brazilian bikini wax with Navya, Tracy's associate, and she was great. I talked to Tracy too and they are just both really nice ladies. The experience was as pain-free and pleasant as is possible. Plus Navya plays Journey while she waxes you! She is hysterical.
