Waxing 101: waxing salons around the Metro

Sooo... after the love month I was kind of skeptical.. After the lovey-dovey motel day of the year, have you waxed? I mean, are you comfortable showing off your bush? I really find it odd to have hair growing everywhere! I don't like hair, but since I don't have the budget for an IPL hair removal treatment I resort to waxing. I savour the pain! Hahaha. Here are a few waxing salons I tried in the past year/s:

For underarm: I have tried Laybare and Wink (BGC). Laybare services are very affordable compared to other waxing salons. Their underarm waxing only costs less than ₱200. But you get what you pay for: cubicles divided only by a thin piece of wood, curtains as doors (yes anyone can easily peek inside the room cubicle), an uncleaned bed with a few hair still lingering on the sheet eek! well you can always ask the therapist to change the linen or at least the towel atop it. I still prefer Laybare for my underarm waxing because it's cheap and I like the results and the length of time before I see hair growing again. As for Wink, the prices are still reasonable,  bit higher than Laybare but as I've said, you get what you pay for: this time bigger cubicles- about 4x bigger than Laybare, a sheet of lengthy paper to cover the bed atop the linen and a cleaner, more vibrant environment. The interior of Wink is just beautiful. Comparing the results of Laybare and Wink underarm waxing: I'd go for Laybare.

For brazilian and bikini: I only trust Strip Manila (G5) for my brazilian waxing. They're just awesome. The place is awesome, hip. The service is awesome, fast at 15mins, less painful and hygienic. The Striperellas are awesome too. After waxing results are awesome as well. For brazilian waxing, go to Strip! I've tried Pink Parlour (SM North) and the service is really bad. The result is quite good though I noticed how fast the hair grew back, so quite bad din. Haha! I tried Laybare bikini and service is ok, so-so, but result was better than Pink Parlour.

FYI:
- Pre waxing: for underarm, don't use deo pre-treatment. If sensitive to pain, take pain reliever 30 mins before waxing.
-Post waxing: Do not wet the area. Do not use hot water on waxed areas. Exfoliate 2 days post-waxing.

So there, hope this helped!
