I got my first Brazilian mini-vacial today with Amarrah who was quick, easy, and made me feel comfortable. It was great and the vacial was so soothing. Amarrah did a wonderful job!! Didn't get talked through everything or the pressure that was advised on YouTube but overall quick and came out beautiful. I'm thankful for the painful experience haha Thank you! Just as a facial I couldn't keep a smile off for the rest of the day. read more

do not ever go here! the male worker steven waxed me and I'm pretty sure he gave me pink eye. Also the waxing room smelled like flaming hot cheetos, I'm not sure if that was just the room or that was his odor as well. Either way the waxing gave me a rash on my private parts so I will never be going here again and neither should you. read more

The Wax Specialists - Hair Removal Near Me - Manchester, New Hampshire

I went in for a leg and bikini wax. Andrea and Savannah were skilled, quick and made the process as comfortable as possible, with excellent attention to detail. I was very nervous about the Bikini area but Andrea's Technique was Quick and painless. This was a great experience. I will definitely be returning for future appointments. Also the establishment is beautiful! Updated and friendly! read more

I had a HydraFacial and a brow wax with Andrea and she did a terrific job! I plan to see her again and again. :)

Worst Brazilian wax. I went to Meredith for a Brazilian, she was sweet and nice but she butchered me down there. There was zero prep. She went right in waxing, ripped me a new one. Over waxed most of me and left me raw and in pain for days. Now it's been 2 weeks since then and I have a painful blister because she over waxed it. Also when she was waxing and moving stuff to get in there she did touched (TWICE) on an area that shouldnt be touched without consent. DO NOT go here for Brazilians. Seriously not worth it. read more

An update to this. To clarify, they sent a reminder via text and I attempted to cancel that via text. in addition, they kept my debit card information on file and charge me $65 because I could not make the appointment that they made themselves. Note that they kept my debit card without my permission. read more

This place is quite far from where I live, but honestly...thank you Skyla for making the experience as comfortable as possible. It's definitely always worth the drive! read more

If you get your eyebrows microbladed by Tanya and she messes them up, don't expect a refund. They both start weirdly narrow closer to the nose, one rounds, the other is straight and then angles, they both get wide before coming down towards the ends. They are also lighter than they should be considering my hair is almost black. Don't expect it to be fixed or refunded. At this point I wouldn't want them fixed, she clearly stated that she would not be doing her best work were she to work on me again. According to them it is just one bad stroke and they are "beautiful". Honestly, the part that gets me the most, is that it is undeniably messed up, and her biggest issue was that i offended her by not liking the work. She made some verbal accusations and threats that show me she wants to cover her trail instead of own her stuff. Someone who takes pride in their work should care about what they put out in the world rather than how it makes them feel when they mess it up. read more

See all

Very clean and super friendly staff!! Also easy to make online appointments and had plenty of parking space!

Update: The owner of this business called me with an attitude saying I left a nasty review. She didn't once apologize for the horrible service like most owners would've. Yes i left a nasty review because i received horrible service. Please don't visit this place. European wax center will be opening on January 15 in Bedford Wasn't aware this studio uses soft wax instead of hard. In my opinion soft wax should only be used on eyebrows. The waxer was very rough when handling my most delicate parts. She didn't removed all the hair like i asked so i made her go back over it. I also booked a underarm wax but she told me she only had time for the Brazilian. European wax would never do such a thing. When i was done i asked the receptionist about the $10 off for it being my first time she seemed confused so i paid full price. I will never go to this studio again. It was literally the worst read more

I adore Stephan and home compatible he makes my experiance everything I go in. Everyone needs a Stephen in their life!

Sophisticated, skilled and elegant studio. Ownership and customer service is some of the best ever- the esthetician's are warm and always happy to see you. The business is immaculately clean and nicely appointed- even their grounds are impeccable. I've been relying on their wax service for years. read more

Great experience ! Very clean office and spectacular and experienced staff. Upon entrance you are greeted with a warm and dimly lit, soothing office with incredible smelling incense-like air. I was relaxed before we had started. These folks are wizards of hair removal and will also provide best recommendations for post care. Only reason I provided 4 stars was because of lack of communications on follow up. They had booked me for 3-4 week follow up and I stated I would call and follow up when it's convenient for my busy schedule. Other than this snafu; I would and will absolutely be back!! Great place!! read more

if i could give negative stars i would. Brazilian wax was awful. didn't even use any hard wax. then my lashes i paid over $200 for fell off in under one week. All and all terrible experience and do not go here read more

Not a friendly greeting. You are not permitted entry until you fill out 3 forms they send to your email. They require you to pay and request the tip before the service. Services were pricy and for the treatment I received I was not told how to care for my skin after. Research online told me there were products you should not use and within 48 hours of treatment. I would not have known had I not done the research prior. The woman performing the service was friendly enough, however I was not feeling the royal spa treatment I expected. read more

I've been here twice so far and my experience was about the same both times. The place itself is very clean and I love the decor. The walls literally sparkle. The two times I've gone, I've gotten my brows done. I haven't waxed in YEARS (always just tweezed) but with my upcoming wedding, I wanted to start shaping them and training them to be nice on their own without having to constantly touch them up. I had Tania for my first visit and she was nice. Not the friendliest, but that is totally fine with me...I'm there for 10 minutes to get my brows done and as long as they come out fine, that's what matters. She did a great job. They came out a little thinner than I'm used to but like I said, I hadn't waxed in years so I think I just wasn't used to it. They looked great, my personal preference is just they be a little thicker but I can't fault her for that since I didn't specify. Overall, a satisfactory visit. Yesterday I had Victoria and she was MUCH more personable. Again, personalities aren't huge to me (as long as you're not an a$$hole) when it comes to this stuff because what matters to me is the finished product. She was very chatty and made my quick 10 minute visit pleasant. On her own, she brought up if I've ever gotten a facial (maybe nodding to the fact I don't have the best skin...very acne-prone and scarred) and I told her I was actually in the middle of a peel-series. She was very interested in finding out what I was doing and my skin regimine. I liked that she seemed to care. The girls are very "sales-oriented" which is totally fine, but it may be something that I'd need to bring up in the future. Based on the cleanliness of the salon, easy off-street parking (hard to come by in downtown Manch), and the results of my brow wax, I will continue to book with Victoria. Overall, a great place in Manchester to get waxing done. read more

I went in for a underarm wax and it wasn't til towards the end I noticed my waxer WASN'T WEARING GLOVES. I was shocked but let her finish since we'd already gotten that far. I don't care how much you wash and sanitize your hands you should ALWAYS where gloves when dealing with intimate body parts. OMG also they use STRIP WAX! Ouch! I should ran out the door as soon as a saw that gigi pot! I won't be back! The 35 min drive to EWC will be worth it. read more

Amazing first wax experience with Victoria! No only was she knowledgeable and professional, but she was also so down to earth and easy to talk to, making for a very comfortable visit! The salon itself is beautiful and well maintained. I'll definitely be back! read more

Disappointed. After moving up from NJ I was excited to finally find a wax salon to continue my Brazilians. After my first visit I can easily say, I would rather go to a mediocre chain place like EWC than come back here. At least there, I know there will be procedures in place. While I do not remember the name of the young lady who waxed me, I could tell she was either new or very poorly trained. For starters, she began my wax without wearing gloves! THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSANITARY AND DANGEROUS!!! for both the client and herself. Second, I noticed that used the same wooden stick every time she applied wax, also unsanitary and dangerous (does she not know you can spread diseases this way????) You are not supposed to re dip. Lastly, aside from the lack of sanitation, she hurt me horribly. She re-waxed multiple parts of my area, leaving my skin burning for DAYS. While I will say she was VERY nice and easy to chat with, I left feeling dirty, uneasy, and in unusual pain. read more

As a male, getting waxed can be a bit overwhelming at first. Sylvie made me feel very comfortable immediately. After the first visit I knew that I would be back. Its been 2 years now and I wouldn't think of going anywhere else. read more

I was highly impressed with this business, and cannot recommend them enough. I walked in, and it is sparkling clean, nicely lit and so professional and chic. It really is that good. Today I had my eyebrows and armpits done, and it was comfortable and quick. I was expecting my underarms to be painful but it wasn't and I adore how smooth they are. Nina was professional and warm, and very helpful. I am so so glad that I made this appointment and went, even though it's a ways from my house. It was well worth the drive and I was seriously impressed with all aspects of this place. Their prices are extremely reasonable for the incredible service that you receive. I have been charged double for so much less, this was a pleasant surprise to find this little gem in Manchester. I will be back for more. read more

I had my first ever Brazilian with Skyla and she was great! She walked me through everything and was so sweet the whole time. The whole staff was great as well and the facility was so clean and nice. read more

I've always wanted to get a Brazilian wax but I've been too nervous, self conscious and chicken to actually go anywhere for it. I don't know how I managed to actually summon the nerve to book and keep this appointment but I'm so glad I did! I saw Tanya for my appointment and she was amazing. So professional and she explained every single thing. She answered all of the questions I had and anticipated the questions I would have. The appointment was super quick. I was worried it would hurt a ton, and granted there were aspects that were a bit uncomfortable but nowhere near what I expected. If you've ever been considering this you must go here!!! read more

I have been going here for several years now... 6 to be exact! I have watched this business build from a one woman, one room business, to there being 3 girls and several rooms for services. Everyone who works here is so passionate about what they do and is always trying to help you achieve a goal of better skin. They offer a wide variety of services from waxing eyebrows to whole body for men and women, and even a selection of spa services. I recently started getting the facials here. If you look at the prices for one they seem pretty steep, but trust me, when you see how much time and effort they put into it you will see why. Only top of the line products that they use themselves, you can see it when you look at how clear their skin is. The ambiance is amazing with the latest remodel and everyone is personable. I will go back again and again and you should check them out. Its almost christmas time, treat yourself! read more

Love this place! The whole staff makes you feel comfortable and it's almost painless after a couple appointments. Love seeing Sylvia she just chats and before you know it you're done and silky smooth. read more

Stephan is wonderful! He does a great job on my eyebrows and I appreciate his friendliness. The place itself is clean and for the most part, everyone is fairly nice. I keep coming back because of Stephan and am giving four stars because of him. The prices are a little on the expensive end, but it's worth it. Overall, great place to go to. I am thankful I found this place when I moved to NH in July. read more

I love this place! Never go anywhere else for waxing, so professional and clean! All the girls are so nice and knowledgeable

New City.. New Wax Specialist. I found The Wax Specialists on Yelp. Glad I did. I was serviced by Tanya V. I am very happy with my Brazilian wax. I will be a returning customer. read more

So...full disclosure, I only had one waxing done here. It was fine, the employee was Tonya and she was lovely. The salon itself is aesthetically pleasing, seems clean and the waiting room is comfortable. The second time I arrived for my waxing I wanted to return an unopened item (still completely sealed in plastic wrap). It was the Tend Skin which is $21 at The Wax Specialists and about $12 at Bed, Bath & Beyond. Anywho....I was told by the owner Sylvia that she could NOT accept returns due to contractual & legal obligations. I really don't care about silly contracts you sign or the law (don't resell it if you can't). Why can I return the same product to Bed, Bath & Beyond and be a happy customer. Also, they had clear proof I bought the product from their salon. Anyway long story short, Sylvia went into a long drawn out dialogue that was nonsensical considering she is in a service industry. She would not even consider a discount of my waxing service that day to compensate for her not accepting my return. This may be a lovely place to get your hair pulled out but not to get your $ pulled out of your wallet without regard to a customer's wish to return an unopened piece of merchandise. Bye, bye. I've moved on and haven't looked back. Just to say buyer beware. read more

Will cancel your appointment made months in advance just days before and instead of offering to rebook you with a different waxer, they tell you "oh! You have an appointment booked next month! See you then!" Yes, I have an appointment next month! I'm a LONG time client that pre-books all her monthly appointments for the year! I requested a call back from the owner Sylvie to address my issue. That was Monday morning, it is now Friday afternoon and I have heard nothing! THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT RETAINING LONG TIME CLIENTS! There are plenty of other estheticians in this city, I suggest you find any one of them and stay far away from this place! read more

This was my first wax so I was very nervous. , I am pleased to say that Sylvie was not only a true professional, but also easy to relax with. I've been a habitual shaver for so many years now, and I have always been curious about trying waxing, but all of those horror stories really made me afraid to try it. Prior to my appointment, I went to the web site I did step by step of the recommendation on the tips and tricks also made sure not to shave the area for about two and a half weeks (it is recommended that you wait at least one to two week before waxing). It totally felt like a jungle and was driving me crazy. I could not wait to hear the schwizppppp! of the waxing strip for it to be all gone. Just to add my two cents and based on my experience at the wax specialist : DON'T BE EMBARRASSED! Don't let embarrassment stop you from trying it at least once. I'm so thankful that Sylvie kept me talking and made me feel like she was just a professional doing what she did best and never to worry, she had everything handled perfectly. was so pleased with the results and completely blown away by how little pain there was involved, I booked 4 appointment with Sylvie,That's how awesome it was. I also wanted to tell everyone around me that waxing isn't scary! It isn't the worst pain ever! It's not torture! Not having to shave every few days and then deal with itchiness and/or ingrown hairs? It's so worth it. So worth it! Book now your appointment with the wax specialist read more

I've been going here every few months for about 2 years. I like the place overall but during my last visit I was thrown off by the price change of every service they offer. My Brazilian used to be $55 but now it's $65 which is a huge price change in my opinion. I will have to find another place that offers something more reasonable. read more

Amazing service, fast clean, friendly. Highly recommend to come here the wax for me has always been almost painless.

It was my first time getting a wax with this salon and It was the best experience ever. The booking online was really easy and you could change it if it didn't work. I went in with no idea how things worked and the way they did things there and the owner took time to explain and talk to about how they waxed there. I found that very helpful because I was nervous getting the Brazilian wax done. I got checked in and went into the room and Daelynne was the one that did my wax and even though i was nervous she talked to me the whole time and that helped a lol. She did a amazing job and she took time to pay attention to detail I give it 5***** review. I already rebooked and planed to come back again and again. Thanks so much Daelynne for doing a amazing job. read more

Always a good experience and they're always on time. Robin is extremely professional and does a fantastic job. They are a pleasure to deal with and I highly recommend. read more
