I've been paying just under $60 for the service, tip, and tax. I saw a sign for the same service near one of my schools, and it was $22. That is ridiculously cheap compared to a lot of other places! But the place looked kind of dumpy. I don't know if I'd trust it. But then just now, I was at the Web site of a really nice spa -- really nice being top rated and pricey. They charge $75+. What does the + mean? Do they charge more for more hair removed?? I don't get it. That'd be just under $90 after all tax and tip. But holy moly, that is costly. While I was at the price list, it noted that it cost $15 for a TOE WAX. Who would pay for a toe wax? You can buy a whole box of pre-waxed strips for $8. That would be enough for about 32 toe waxings. What a rip to go for a toe waxing! Oh, they use special Italian wax. I guess people are paying for duties, too. I'd only go somewhere to get waxed for places I cannot reach!! I can't wait for this week's Beauty and the Geek. There is going to be some waxing action for the geeks. *rubs hands together gleefully* They're getting makeovers...YEEAH! I don't know what's up with me today. I am craving McDonald's and sashimi. |

Toe wax? That makes me cringe.
I go to one of the local schools of massage, etc. for massages and waxing. (The secret is to ask the scheduling person for someone about to graduate!) I also go to the Aveda school salon for haircuts ($12). Well, I used to go do that stuff when I had money.

Yes - they charge more if you look like Chewbacca.
I do my own legs during the summer. I'm not quite as adept but, the huge tub o'wax is like $12.

Thanks for the tip...We have a massage school around here, but I never thought about going there for a reduce rate service!
Self-waxing is the way to go. I can't wax my legs though. The hair never grows long enough, but I do wax as much of everything else as I can *giggle*
