Ministry of waxing, elle, beauty

Brazilian and leg wax

by Ministry of Waxing

Price: from £19
Stockist: Ministry of Waxing
current ite: - 446356
 Best For: Brazilian for beginners

Ministry of Waxing is the hip new beauty joint in town. The chain is a big hit in Singapore, Shanghai and Jakarta and this is the first branch to open in London. Modern, with a Manhattan loft feel, Ministry of Waxing is very different to some of the serious spas and salons in the city. Every customer gets their own Hygiene Wax Pack which includes disposable knicker and wipes, and there are animal shaped stress balls in each room if the pain gets too much.

All waxes are carried out using their own ‘Wild chocolate Berry’ hard wax recipe and afterwards ‘Ice Cream’ is applied to soothe and cool. A wax is just a wax, after all, but at Ministry of Waxing the therapist aimed, and succeeded, to put me completely at ease and the friendly approach made the experience a whole lot more bearable. My koala shaped stress reliever helped too!

Ministry of Waxing, 17 South Molton Street, London, enq: 020 7409 7343.

Brazilians start from £38. Half Leg, from £19
