Living only 40 minutes away from home, as a college student, has allowed me to go home whenever I need a haircut, manicure or eyebrow wax. Unfortunately, the place I used to get my eyebrows waxed has moved out of my town and I have been desperately looking for a new place. It can be nerve-wracking as a college kid to leave the comfort of the people you know and put your hair and eyebrows in someone else’s hand.
It was getting to the point where I needed to get my eyebrows waxed, and I couldn’t wait until I got home. I started utilizing my friends, peers and social media to find wax places in Boston. Luckily for me, Boston is full of salons. Here are five salons that have gotten great reviews when it comes to waxing.
