Need waxing recs!

Does anyone have a good recommendation for who to go to for bikini/leg wax on the NW side? I want to get it done before we leave for the honeymoon.

I've had it done before, but I won't go back to the place I went to because they really screwed up and I had to go back for touchups :( Like it wasn't painful enough the first time, I was super excited for Round 2

    This is on the northside but I recommend Toujours Spa & Salon in Anderson.  I have been going there for years and the girls there are amazing!!

    I have heard Trim in bucktown is good, I have a few friends that go there. I go to Heather at Mario TRicoci downtown.

    The waxer a Juko nails in Wicker Park is AMAZING!  Best price around, no spa ameneties, but gets the job done and gets you in an out quickly.

    Thanks for the recs! Has anyone been to Asha Aveda spa? A friend had recommended it and it sounds pretty nice.

    Stephanie at Trim in Bucktown is amazing.  She is an absolute doll and will take very good care of you.  I have recommended several friends to her after they had bad waxing experiences and they became loyal customers.  Hope that helps!

    I get my hair cut at Asha in Schaumburg and also at Mario Tricoci on Mall Drive just a block away.

    Both are excellent, though neither are all that budget friendly. While I've had spa services at Mario's and never at Asha, I can tell you that the biggest difference would be products (great at both) and atmosphere. Asha is an Aveda salon, so they like to make everything smell and feel very "zen."

    Although it's been a while since I had any spa treatment at Mario Tricoci, I can tell you that Denuta gets a lot of requests. My guess is that she's still working there... and still getting a lot of requests. :)

    Just Waxing in Wicker Park is amazing, and very reasonable.
