Best of Boston

The delicate art of hair removal with wax is practiced with finesse and care at this self-described “studio for personal grooming.” Austens happens to be the master of extreme waxing: The fabled “Brazilian” job (in which 99 percent of a client’s pubic hair is removed) is on offer; mercifully, champagne and cocktails are, too. This mellow salon helps to take the edge off any procedure.
