Part lingerie shop, part luxury waxing joint, Strip opened in 2005 with the aim of making hair removal a treat rather than just another thing to cross off on your to-do list. Today they have six branches across London, with decor that is closer to boutique hotel than beauty salon. Their wax technicians are consistently fantastic – the most painless waxes I’ve had, which is why I am a complete Strip convert. You will be too. Branches are in Chelsea, Notting Hill, Soho, The City, Islington and Covent Garden. Be sure to try out their anti ingrown hair serums too.
Nobody ever looks forward to a wax, but if you’re inclined to strip off all your unwanted hair come summer (or all year round!) they can be a necessary – if painful – part of life.
While no wax is going to be pain-free, we’ve rounded up all of the locations that offer the quickest, most professional, most painless waxes possible. From no-frills salons to luxury beauty parlours whose decadence will really take the edge off your visit, these are London’s best waxers.
