Smooth skin is something all ladies covet, but when you’re a mom, it just doesn’t happen very often. With everything we have to do, sometimes it’s truly a triumph to leave the house wearing something other than yoga pants. Yes, getting waxed is a luxury for busy mums who don’t have time to waste. So, we’ve done the research for you and rounded up the Top 10 Salons for Hair Removal in the 852. Salons that we know and love that offer up everything from waxing to threading services, from the reasonably-priced to the luxurious. Now go and treat yo self, mamas.
Browhaus
London, Singapore, New York, Shanghai and now Hong Kong! This concept store specialises in brow and lash grooming and is now in the heart of Central. Whether you have more eyebrows than most or you’re a little brow-challenged, you’re sure to find a treatment here that will leave you looking gorgeous. All therapists have been fully trained at their own Browhaus School and have perfected the techniques of threading, tweezing, lash extensions and brow colouring. A treatment you’ll only find at Browhaus is their eyebrow resurrection where they create semi-permanent fuller eyebrows. So even when you’re sweaty and red in the face from chasing around your toddler and doing the million other things you do in the day, at least you’ll have perfectly shaped brows.
