Hair's Looking at You

Strip Waxing and Lingerie Boutique Opens

Newscaster: Let’s check in on Suzy at the sea. Suze?

Reporter: Well, Al, it’s been a traumatic day on the sand. Countless innocent beachgoers were terrified when an unshaven, unidentified swimmer came ashore.

Witness 1: Hair. (Sobbing.) Everywhere.

Witness 2: She had no business in that bikini!

R: First responders have taken her to new Strip Waxing for emergency treatment.

N: In the NoHo Arts District?

R: Correct. Former Wax on Melrose aestheticians, the co-owners are known for their deft hair removal skills. Reports from the loungey salon say services are quick and virtually painless due to specialized technique and the use of rose cream and blue hard waxes, which stick to hair, not skin.

N: Any indications of redness or irritation?

R: None, Al. Treating and preventing ingrowns is a top priority. In fact, many anti-inflammatory, noncomedogenic products are on hand.

N: Let’s hope the road to recovery isn’t a bumpy one.

Strip Waxing and Lingerie Boutique, 5217 Lankershim Boulevard, between Magnolia Boulevard and Weddington Street, North Hollywood (818-761-4411 or stripnoho.com).
