Waxing Checklist: Everything You Need To Know For Your Appointment
Waxing is a phenomenal way to remove hair for smooth skin, and results tend to last longer than shaving!
Our aesthetician Samatha offers not only brow waxes but full body waxing services including the nose, leg, arm, bikini, and back! Our salons are located off of FM 1488 just minutes away from The Woodlands, Alden Bridge, and Magnolia.
