Wax Shacks for Women

Let’s just all agree that a lot of good comes with wax. It beats a shave in the shower or bath, lasts longer and with the right person at the end of the strip, is the best way to get things nice and neat. Especially if you’re planning to pop on a bikini. But nobody likes a chop shop where it’s rough and painful. We found the places to get waxed with tender love and care.

Ministry of Waxing

Founded in 2001 by Cynthia Chua, the Ministry of Waxing has a reputation of offering the least painful waxing across the capital. This success can be attributed to the fact that the Ministry of Waxing specializes only in waxing. Their wide range of services includes almost everything you might want from a wax. They also provide discreet wet wipes and a locker for your belongings. They have five branches across London, below are details for their Covent Garden outlet.
