Gimme Your Digits

Polished Beauty Lounge

Wax on. Wax off. Ah, if only salon trips were as simple as doing arm circles and having tea with Pat Morita.

Just the same, the new Polished Beauty Lounge (open tomorrow) should render OTP beauty quests a little less daunting.

Stop by the comfy, tucked-away spot for everything from the everyday (mani-pedis, chair massages while you wait) to the near-mystical (owner Selam Welde swears by brow threading — as opposed to waxing — and a nifty, skin-saving thingamajig called “the bikini brush”).

Settle down for a full day of treatments. In addition to hair removal, we suggest a papaya-infused sugar scrub followed by a chemical-free facial, lash extensions, and pro makeup job on your way out.

Don’t worry — nothing will land you too far outside your comfort zone.

Though prepping to go commando is never easy.

Polished Beauty Lounge, 4500 West Village Place, Smyrna (678-213-2999).
