I went in for a brow wax, and for some reason my appointment was not listed. However, an awesome Esthetician, Bonnie W., was able to fit me in. She is great! Didn't try to have me do more than I needed, but really knows her stuff. I will be back! read more

Jules did a FANTASTIC job in giving me a lash tint. Possibly to the best results for me yet! read more

Lori and Keana Was Very helpful and friendly helping me consult with my facial waxing services I love how Keana defined my eyebrows and Lori effortlessly help my remove hair from my face and teaching me how to tweeze 10/10 recommend this place I'm sure all staff is just as amazing as these two read more

Incredible experience! It's a great location downtown and easy to access. My cerologist, Kayla, was efficient and effective while waxing. It was painless and a super pleasant experience. I definitely will be a loyal customer to this location and Kayla. read more

Lovely ladies, all of them! I obviously can't post a photo due to it being a Brazilian, but trust and you will be blessed by the hands of these excellent professionals! I never thought I would trust a "chain" waxing service, but I have not had one iota of a bad experience. Definitely sign up for Club Orange if you are receiving consistent waxes. They always make me feel comfortable. I'd suggest trying to do a service with each cerologist to see which person you prefer, waxing is an art so everyone approaches it differently. I've been lucky to experience all but one. Eva will forever be my queen though! Consistency is key especially when it comes to brazilians, if you are looking to get into waxing, skip the wax strips and book an appointment at WTC LoDo! read more

New to the area and called for a last minute, same day appointment. I was scheduled and confirmed and the young lady who assisted me was really nice and helpful! I showed up for my appointment and was greeted by Eva who would also provide my service. She is quiet, we didn't speak throughout the appointment which was a little awkward but she did a very good job and my Brazilian was not painful which is most important! She had great attention to detail and I will return. read more

This review is for Sequoia. I've gotten my fair share of Brazilian waxes at different places with different people and even another person at this waxing the city location and Sequoia is by far the best. She takes her time for each wax and does a very thorough job. Now the key with a "good" wax is how long it lasts for. I've had waxes that look good right after, but a few days later, lots of hair starts coming back. This is not the case with any wax I've gotten with Sequoia. Every wax I have gotten with her lasts at least a few weeks and she gets all the hair out by the root. She is also very friendly and kind and does her best to make the waxing experience and easy and painless as possible. Overall, I highly recommend Sequoia for any wax. Of all the waxing specialists I have tried, she is THE BEST. read more

So disappointed, I've been coming here for over 10 years and the sterility and safety of the experience is gone. They no longer change the disposable sheets between clients. At the Tech Center location they now use a rubber mat that they clean between clients. I guess you just cross your fingers and hope for the best. First, they get rid of the person at the front desk and now this. Might be time for a change. read more

The logical part of my brain is telling me to gate keep this place and the skills of Sequoia. Sequoia is the best esthetician I've ever been to in my life. She has changed my life, and my friends lives. Brow tint, wax, Brazilian she is an absolute artist. Her service is professional and she tailors your service to what will look best on you. THAT IS FACTS. You will get SO MANY COMPLIMENTS. I feel 300% more confident after getting my brows done with sequoia. She is the real hidden gem of Denver. Brow girlies look no further. I can be so hungover, dehydrated, crust of the earth but I still look fly cause my brows look that good. And a Brazilian- she never misses a single hair. I'm serious. read more

Recently moved to Denver and needed a new place to get my eyebrows done and had such a lovely experience at Waxing The City in LoDo to get my brows waxed and tinted! Sequoia did such an amazing job it truly made my day. From her kind spirit to her attention to detail, she truly is so good at what she does. She took her time making sure my brows were perfect and to my liking. I'll admit, I was skeptical about trying a new place as someone who has consistently gone to one place my entire life to get my brows done. However, Sequoia did such an amazing job I can't wait to come back to see her again! Side note -- if it's your first time at Waxing The City you get 20% off! read more

I am very disappointed, I picked this place for 1 single reason... tipped is not allowed!!! Well that's a lie. Not only did I not get a first time customer discount, but I was asked what I wanted to pay in gratuity at check out. Don't get me wrong the person that did me was nice, she missed a few spots and I left with a stubble, she otherwise appeared to care about what she was doing and worked hard. I will never go again as this is waaaaay out of my way and If I am tipping anyway, I'll go to someone closer to my house. read more

Love this location, Sequoia is the best! She's friendly, listens to your wants and delivers!

I've been coming to the downtown location for several years now. I've seen several Cerologists since coming here, but have landed with Laurie for a while now. The services and experience are always met with consistency, which I can truly appreciate. Laurie is polite, friendly, and holds great conversations with me during each session. Thanks, Laurie! read more

I've been a Waxing the City regular for almost two years now. Without going into too much detail, there's a reason why I give them five stars, even if the visits can be painful. Rachel at the front desk is the most cheerful, efficient person I've encountered at any spa, beauty salon or place of business in this realm. Whether you're calling last minute, checking in or booking an appt in advance, she's got you, Boo. Yes, waxing hurts. Whomever says it's painless probably also says tattoos tickle or thong underwear is comfortable. That being said, WTC trains all of their aestheticians extensively in the art of hair removal. Yes, it's an art. Anyone that can get my armpits smooth and hair-free in six strips or less is better than Van Gough. I am a Black Book customer, which is a pre-purchased package program. It includes a set number of services at a small discount plus 20% off additional products purchased. Even though I live across town from the Lodo location, I will make my regular 3-4 week trips to the OG Waxing the City because I like them that much. I don't love the waxing, but the ladies and service can't be beat. read more

I've visited Waxing the City's Lodo studio twice now while in Denver from out of state. Both experiences were great but my second visit I scheduled an appointment with Laurie intentionally based on reviews I read online and I'm so glad I did! Laurie did an amazing job on my brows taking just the right amount away and shaping them while allowing room to grow where needed. I also left with my first brow tint and I'm so glad she encouraged me to try it because it helped my (blonde) brows fill in even more just as she described. Brittany was at the front desk and I came out of my appointment to find that she and my mom who accompanied me to the appointment had been chatting the entire time. She and Laurie were both so kind and personable. I am excited to be back in Denver and to see Laurie again. read more

I got to my appointment 6 minutes late due to no street parking and their entrance being moved - which was not easy to find, and they told me I had to reschedule and couldn't see me anymore today. I get that they are busy but this is unacceptable, I was only coming in for an eyebrow and lip wax which should take 10 min max, and further to not be accommodated when I paid for street parking and was 6 minutes late due to their location being inaccessible was pretty frustrating. read more

Laurie was great, friendly, efficient, works with moms. Down side is they don't have great parking, only street parking. They're one of the oldest waxing studios in Denver. read more

Was in town for work and found Waxing the City on Yelp and am so glad I did! Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Ashley took care of me during my visit and she was GREAT - highly recommend!! It was super easy to make an appointment online and it was even better that the first wax is 50% off!! They are located on the lower level and right off the 16th Street Mall and super convenient location. I'll be back forsure :) read more

I am a giant baby when it comes to waxing. I try not to be, but with the first pull of wax from my brow my eyes well up with tears and I can't stop them from coming until about 5 minutes after the whole experience is done. And forget tweezers. I think because of a traumatic childhood event involving a toothpick, the arch of my foot and a doctor with the biggest pair of tweezers I've ever seen I am extremely reluctant to let anyone come near me with tweezers in hand. I'm sure you can imagine this makes me a waxing client that everyone is dying to have. Since Wax in the City has received such awesome accolades I decided to give them a try. As I waited in the room they offered me a drink - water or miniature sodas in a can (8 ounces I believe). We all know I'm a sucker for minis so I was already feeling happier and less nervous. Then Skye came out to take me to a back room. They have a ton of individual rooms here which is awesome. But, not as awesome as Skye. She couldn't stop me from crying, stupid tear ducts, but she did stop me from feeling any sort of pain that I've associated with wax and she gave me tissues to clean up my tears. Plus, she used the tweezers and I hardly felt a thing. As an added bonus she didn't even get upset when I jumped the first time I felt the tweezers on my brow. I think the prices are really reasonable and tipping is already included which is awesome. I will definitely go back and visit Skye next month when it's time to wax again. You should check her out, too. read more

Saturday turned out to be "splurge on Stephen" day, and I decided to get a few areas waxed. (Not "there". Nice try. I'll never tell. :) My go-to peeps at Studio Urban Wax were not available for days -- not even for a single service -- so I decided to flip to their next major competitor on Yelp, WTC. I was pleasantly surprised to find the "mention Yelp and get 50% off your most expensive service" tag when I looked at reviews. So down to Market St I fled. I was greeted pleasantly when I entered their cute front waiting room, lots of windows on the front wall and a drink fridge that carried those baby cans of soda. The receptionist was pleased when I mentioned Yelp...I think it's a mutual "hey, we both know what we're getting out of this" relationship -- I'm getting cheaper services, you're getting a review. :) My waxer was Michelle who got to me very quickly after I arrived. She performed her art very well using a blue wax for some areas and a gooey wax the consistency and look of honey on other areas. So far so good, right? Mostly. Except I looked a few times, and there were some hairs she missed. Glaring ones, to me. To her credit, she had me check her work on the areas I could see, but still, I shouldn't have had to point them out. And on a somewhat large area, I was left with hairs a few millimeters high; much better than I started with, but not beyond notice when I ran my hand over the skin. Michelle said it was because my hairs seemed to be growing at different rates. That may be, but shouldn't it all have been smooth when you were done, ripped down to the skin? I think it should have. (now the dreaded words...) I didn't have that problem at Studio Urban Wax when they did that. So in 4-6 weeks, I'll be hitting SUW again, and seeing if I experience that issue I experienced here. If I don't and my skin is as smooth as a babys, then WTC will forever be my "backup" place; certainly competent, but we're paying for results here, right? To be fair, I'm right. So we'll see what happens. If I see WTC's issue at SUW, then I will glower at my tummy (there you go, now you know, worth the wait? bleah. :p ) and curse at my weird-rate growing hairs. For a first experience here, pretty good. read more

This place rocks!!!! And guys get cleaned up and do it with this very professional, no-nonsense, classy establishment. Seriously they are wonderful and very skilled at removing unwanted hair. I am going to recommend that all the guys go see Bianca A. She will make you feel comfortable, relaxed, and you'll be laughing at her Witt and great humor so much you won't even feel the hairs being yanked out. This place is very clean, well run, and friendly from the moment you are greeted at the front desk. Best part is their NO TIPPING policy. They strive for excellent service by all on their professional staff. The prices are competitive and well worth it for the quality of care provided. Ladies you will love it this place because they know what they are doing and get you in and out. Guys...out the razors and clippers down and get with the program! read more

Booked an appt after a friend recommended an eye brow wax and tint with Sequoia. I rarely get my brows waxed (because nobody has ever impressed me with the result) and have never had a brow tint before this. Can say I'm now obsessed. Sequoia is an absolute artist... my eye brows have never looked this amazing before!!! She shaped them PERFECTLY and they look so full now. 10/10 recommend coming here!! read more

Not sure I will return after 2-3 years only because they are not wearing a masks and working in my face. The 2 clients I did see had masks on so I don't think it is just me. Jim D. Denver read more

They now prompt for a tip, making the price way above what it should be. At 20%, a Brazilian is now $72. They do say tipping is optional, but when you are specifically prompted to enter one or select decline, you feel obligated to tip as you would in any salon. Their pricing structure is high to start because tips were included. If they want to allow tipping, that's fine. But then either reduce the base cost or CLEARLY STATE at time of payment that the fee includes tip and additional tipping is an option but not expected. Instead, I was told to feel free to add a tip if you'd like, it's a new option we added a year ago. That makes it seem like tipping is expected. read more

They offer a discount for your first visit and take walk ins. You really can't beat the convenience.

Is this place a little more expensive than other place nearby? Yes. When you're getting your nether regions waxed.. you get what you pay for! Waxing the city is CLEAN and the wax is high quality. The staff is nice and friendly too! Ashlie is a pro at making it as pleasant as ripping hairs out of your skin can be. She's great to talk to and does an awesome job. read more

Had a great experience with Lorin!! Super friendly atmosphere in the office and the appointment. Lorin did an amazing job and I am excited to see her again!! Thank you for smooth skin and an enjoyable experience Lorin!! Really pretty bathrooms in the building as well. Parking was easy and metered. I would recommend this place for all your waxing needs!! read more

Had such an awesome experience here! Got 20% off for the first time and I got my Brazilian done with McKenzie and she was amazing. She was so sweet and talked to me the whole time. With quarantine, I hadn't waxed for a while and shaved a time or two and I can guarantee that it was as good an experience it could've been for the situation and it's because of McKenzie. They were also completely clean and super conscious of sanitizing. Temperature check before proceeding too, loved it all. Can't wait to go back. read more

I'm a business traveler and needed a last-minute appointment here and it was great! Lorin did an amazing job on my Brazilian! She was very gentle and did a great job telling me step by step what she was doing. She also ended up doing my legs and underarms! Was very happy with the results and would return in the future whenever I'm in the area! read more

Lexie is great! She's knowledgeable in her craft. And extremely gentle!

I was so excited to try this place: great reviews, half off your first visit, couldn't be better right? Answer: Wrong I showed up at 4:47 for my 4:45 appointment. Yes, I was late. And I hate being late. I felt bad about being late. And I walked in and apologized for being late. Things come up for people sometimes. And oh, did they make sure I knew I was late....when I walked in and checked in, the receptionist, while friendly, goes "Well you're running about 5 minutes late so can you fill out this form real quick?" Ok, didn't think it was 5 since I just looked at my watch, but I'm not here to debate. I sat down with the form and my cerologist came out and called for me. I had just started completing the form and she goes "Ok well can you hurry cuz you're late...". I know I'm late....I hurried through the form and signed with barely a chance to read it. For all I know I was signing over my first-borne child or my life's savings.... As we walked back to the room, I apologized again. She goes, "It's ok but when you're late it throws everyone else off too and we barely have time to do a wax." Ok...first off I know how these things work, I apologized. Second, is this to say I'm going to get a worse wax done because I was late? Like I don't want my eyebrows to look bad and I'd rather just come back if that's the case. Third, THINGS COME UP. You're right, Waxing The City, next time I have a phone interview that runs late (which was my case), I'll politely interrupt them and go, "Sorry, I know you have additional questions for me, but I have an eyebrow appointment to get to and really can't talk about my leadership skills any further." I'm sure they would understand... The room is clean and nice, but very sparse. One review compared it to more of a lab and I definitely got that feeling. My cerologist was barely talkative and the conversation that did occur seemed very forced. Like just don't talk to me if it's that difficult for you... While she did do an overall great job and the waxing was relatively painless, she made my eyebrows thinner than I would have liked....I like thicker brows, and she goes, "so just a touch up?" Yes. Exactly. Nope. They are definitely thinner than what I'm used to. Also, my skin the next day was red and had broken out. Granted, this has happened to me before at other locations and I do have sensitive skin. But maybe I could have anticipated this if I had time to read the waiver.... Unless your hobbies include being scolded like a 5 year old and showing up to appointments 30 minutes early, I highly recommend you seek your waxing services elsewhere. Oh. Did I forget to mention? I was late to my appointment...... read more

I have been going to WTC-Lodo since October 2010 and am in LOVE!!! I see Courtney for a Brazilian and she is a master at what she does.

Thanks Courtney!!! read more

Updating my review as management got in touch with me very quickly after posting this and offered me a discount to return and try them again. Given my experience, I thought this was fair so I'll be going back end of month and I have to say how much I appreciated the thoughtful replies and communication I received as a follow-up. As my only issue was with scheduling etc. never the actual service, I'm sure that will go great. Thank you ladies. read more

I'll probably be the only guy to post about using their services, but why not. I have been to this place to get my back done numerous times and they have always been great. Very professional and helpful for all your waxing needs. They now have 3 salons (as of this post): Downtown, DTC and Boulder. The owners share their time amongst all 3 salons so if you need services from them, you could work it out. The best thing about this place is that you could make appointments with whomever you want right on their web site. Pretty easy to do, once you create a log in. And, despite how much you want to tip they won't allow it. They include it in the bill. read more

Okay, I love this place! I was going to the one in Boulder but when I realized my fave cerologist was based in Denver, I made the switch. I heart Whitney. She is just perfect. She chats me up and I don't even realize she is ripping my hair out with hot wax. Not kidding, folks! The wax they use on the "sensitive" areas is by far the best I have ever had used on me. I have been waxing for about 14 years (my mom took me to get my legs waxed when I was 14, it was a bonding thing) and this salon has given me the best experiences by far. I was traumatized by a place in Florida, where I went to college. After the horror that was that bikini wax, I went back to shaving (not happily but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do). I was timid the first time I came in to WitC. But Whitney's easy conversation and fast waxing skills plus the great technique and awesome wax made it pain-free and less than 20 minutes!!! Now, I'm hooked and the boys aren't complaining. :-) I really recommend, if you are interested, going in andchatting with them. They will explain it all to you and if you get started and can't take it, they will stop and not push you (which happens in some places). Lastly, I noticed the comment about their online scheduling system. I agree, it isn't the best. I had no problem for several months and lately it has been on the fritz for me... So I just called. They found me an appointment time with my favorite girl, no problem. Perhaps it doesn't all work flawlessly but, frankly, what does? And at least there is a solution that does work (maybe it's "old-fashioned" to call but get over it)! All I'm saying is, try it! Come on... don't be fraidy cat! And there is a bar next door, get a drink if you need courage for a cute girl to pour hot wax on your skin and then rip it off. ;-) read more

Just to be clear: this is not for actual services. I made a last-minute appointment & live 5 min away from this location. I had read other reviews where people said the parking was hard so I said - "I read reviews that the parking is difficult, will that be a problem?" and she said no that isn't an issue anymore. Turns out, still an issue, so struggle to park. I finally pay for parking then they asked for all this paperwork that could have been done prior or knowing the time sensitivity, suggested incomplete it after. Then they said "we don't know if we have time because you're late. We will do the best we can." What does do the best we can for a wax mean? Like partially until you run out of time? I've had laser so it's minimal but more of the principle of like "the best we can..." had I been given any of this information over the phone, I would have gone somewhere else (which I did, and had a great service) in the first place. Moral of the story: communicate clearly with potential customers. read more

I have been a Brows on 15th devotee literally since I moved to Denver, and I have been almost exactly once a month for literally years. But then I started a job with way less flexible hours, and in a spot that's about ten times closer to Waxing the City than to Brows. So with a heavy heart and a guilty conscience, I booked an appointment at Waxing the City. My face was getting furrier every day, and even though I felt like a cheating cad, I just had to admit that if the service and product turned but to be just as good, I couldn't justify the extra trip across town. Overall verdict? I will stick with Brows and just try to be better about making an appointment. Waxing the City will be my pinch hitter. I didn't like the brisk reception when I came in, the lack of pleases and thank yous. Maybe it was an off day, and if it's better the next time I go I will definitely update my review. I really like that waxing is done in individual rooms here. Not that I'm ashamed of getting my eyebrows waxed, but it's not really something I want everyone to see. I didn't like that my skin was slightly irritated for about a day after waxing. I have extremely sensitive skin, this is not uncommon for me. I'm sure they use good quality wax and everything, but for my particular skin, it may not be the best. I like the no tipping policy. I always tip well, regardless of how happy I am with the service. I want people to like me. :) It was nice not to have to figure out how much I should be giving. I expect a business with multiple locations to accept American Express. It's not a huge deal, just a little annoying. read more

Holy holy holy holy. I finally worked up the courage to get a wax (I won't say where...) Now...the actual experience of the wax itself is not pleasant, however..Abigail was very gentle with me and put me at ease. She explained exactly what she was doing and had me outta there within 15 minutes. Even though parking can kind of be a bitch, if you come on a weekday after work chances are you might score a spot out front like I did. The place is downstairs next to Pat's Cheesesteaks where you can down a couple of drinks if you're REALLY nervous beforehand. They even have a small fridge with mini sodas in the waiting area! The best part? The no tipping policy! The prices are already pretty fair and all they ask is if you spread the good word, so this is what I'm doing. If you're hairy ass needs to be groomed, this would be the ONLY place for you to go! read more

I used to love this place. Before they got all big and had two (or is it three now?) locations, it was by far the best place for ritual hair removal in the city. Then they went to that online booking and I've had nothing but problems. I book for a day. I go in on that day. They don't have me down for an appointment (usually they dig me up on some random day three weeks away) and they're too busy to get me in. When I'm on my way to the beach, finding my last-minute waxing appointment doesn't exist and I have to scramble for something else just plain sucks. I've carried in my email confirmations of my appointments. I've faxed them to the salon. And several people I sent to them back in tha day tell me they've had the same problems. It seems they just don't care that the system doesn't work. I gave them many chances -- way more than I would if they hadn't been so good for so long -- but I can't go through the frustration and inconvenience anymore. read more
