Waxing in Chicago, Illinois

Whether you're hitting Oak Ave Beach, running along the Lakeshore Trail, or hitting the clubs in River North, there’s one thing that no one wants to have to be self-conscious about: body hair. From perfectly sculpted brows and silky legs to a pristine bikini line and peach-fuzz-less lips, when you’re hair free, you’re carefree. With so many options for hair removal, what’s the best method to keep you smooth and hairfree as you have fun in the sun? Who wants to worry about having to do daily touch-ups with razors or tweezers? For busy people in Chicago, waxing is one way you can keep looking and feeling your best. What Is Waxing? Waxing is one of the oldest and most effective forms of hair removal. An esthetician will apply melted wax to your face or body, and depending on the method, either apply muslin strips or wait for the wax to cool and harden before pulling against the direction of hair growth, and—voila!—silky smoothness. What Are the Benefits of Waxing? One of the greatest benefits of waxing is that the results tend to last much longer than other forms of hair removal since it removes the hair follicle’s root, and over time, waxing can actually make hair regrowth softer and less visible. An extra bonus of a waxing service is the mild exfoliation it provides to the waxed area. How Long Does Waxing Last? Results vary based on your body and hair type, but most people go 4–6 weeks before needing another wax. How Much Does Waxing Cost? The cost of waxing varies widely based on the area of the body being waxed. Facial waxing, such as eyebrows, lips, or chin cost between $15–30 on average in Chicago. As you move into bigger and more intimate areas of the body, the price of waxing increases. Some salons offer package deals for full facial or body waxing.
