Wax On
Posted on | January 9, 2010 | Comments Off
I think we’d all have to agree that waxing certainly falls into the” it takes pain to be beautiful” category. Fortunately, the wise souls at Maxine Salon (www.maxinesalon.com) on Rush Street in downtown Chicago (conveniently located across the street from The Penninsula) have come up with a brilliant way to at least take the edge off for us. Yes, they got a liquor license. And while I do enjoy the occassional mini bottle of wine or champagne with my highlights and haircut there these days, it’s really for the waxing appointments that this perk is just so incredibly fantastic. Add to that the skills of the numero uno wax warrior in Chicago, Jaime Lewis, in residence at Maxine and there ends up being little pain and a lot of gain. XXo, Amy
