Wild on Wax
Houston Luxury Magazine 2004 

If you are looking to experience the Brazilian wax treatment that’s become all the rage lately, there’s only one place to go in Houston: Wild on Wax, a popular concept spa by Lauren Michael Salons.

If you’re a fan of the cable program “Sex in the City,” you’ve probably heard about the Brazilian wax treatment that eliminates unwanted hair below the belly button.  Most clients that desire the procedure are of a diverse walk and age---professionals from every trade or craft, housewives, couples and the like. “The Brazilian wax has gotten very popular in the last few years. The treatment takes about 30 minutes-plus to complete, depending on the amount of hair and growth pattern,” according to the dermal hygienists.

Specializing in waxing and a wide range of comprehensive skin care treatments the salon celebrates its Grand Opening this month. “The first of its kind in Houston, a salon that specializes in Waxing, so you don’t need to get your waxing services at the nail salons, performed by folks who may otherwise be unqualified, and further don’t understand adverse reactions to a client that’s taking particular medications , or has a medical condition that contra-indicates waxing services.”

“We perform full-body waxing services to remove unwanted hair for women, men, and young adults, including the Brazilian,” Wild on Wax medical consultant George Bedre states.  “The salon uses a fine selection of hard wax that adheres exclusively to hair, not the skin.  Waxes used are a blend of natural products and, therefore, offer the greatest possible results.” In addition to waxing, Wild on Wax also performs a variety of traditional spa services by experienced professionals, including facials and full-body skin care treatments, massage, and the ever popular colonic therapy, all utilizing the most innovative techniques and cutting-edge formulations.

The traditional spa treatments are synergistic with the medical procedures, such as, Adult & Adolescent Acne Treatments, Microdermabrasion, Botox Cosmetic, Photo-Facial Rejuvenation, Permanent Hair Reduction, and Spider Vein Treatments.

The idea of Wild on Wax, is to serve busy professionals or persons who are on the move and don’t have time to spend all day at a traditional spa facility.

“in the city, there are many therapy claims about the ultimate spa experience. We do not offer the ultimate spa experience.” Bedre explains. “We do offer expert techniques by licensed professionals, effective treatment plans, and a fresh approach to balance one’s naturally aging beauty, health and lifestyle.

Our medical professionals provide state-of-the-art diagnostics, equipment and treatments. Current advances in non-surgical and non-invasive treatments transcend traditional spa therapies and push aesthetics to a deeper level. Our physician consultant and therapists provide advanced treatment in anti-aging modalities and have a pulse on emerging trends and cutting edge applications.

As a medical management industry consultant, Bedre understands most patients seek counsel of caregivers who demonstrate special skills and compassion, and are educationalists. Bedre acknowledges the salon has tremendous chemistry and appeal, blessed with genuine enthusiasm for improving the quality of life around it. He admits in this business there’s always a spot for gifted professionals who surpass the usual routine.

Wild on Wax prescribes long-term skin rejuvenation through proper attention, home and travel remedies, with maintenance programs to ensure premium concentration of skin protection, stress and environmental relief, so as to bring back silky smooth skin.

Located in the Galleria Area at the corner of Richmond and Fountainview, Wild on Wax features a warm, inviting interior décor that offers a swanky “urban vibe” that will have you looking and feeling relaxed and at ease.  The facility was designed by AMAS Medical Management Group of Houston, and is altogether practical and features the latest, most advanced techniques, equipment, and supplies available. The salon is open five days a week, with extended hours and accepts most major credit cards, personal checks, and cash. You can click on to their website for special promotional offers good for valuable savings toward services, package deals and parties.

If you want realistic results for your skin and body, but don’t have the time to purchase a mini-vacation at the local fluff spas, Wild on Wax is the door to affordable serious skin and body care.
