If you live in Portland, Oregon and are looking for the best wax you can have (seriously), then you must visit our featured store of the month: Urban Waxx.

Owner Shannon Conley designed the culture of Urban Waxx around the ideals of empowering staff by giving them a secure place to work — filled with recognition and respect — and providing clientele with dynamic waxing services in a comfortable, unisex environment. Based on her vision of delivering this kinder, gentler waxing experience — rather than a throw-away side service you might find in some nail and hair salons — Shannon and her staff hold themselves to a higher level of customer care, and it shows.

But, don’t just take our word for it: Urban Waxx recently won five Best of Citysearch (Portland) awards for: Best Waxing, Best Brazilian Wax, Best Men’s Grooming, Best Eyebrow Shaping, and Best Hair Removal.

More exciting news comes in the form of Urban Waxx’s latest signature product: Serious Serum — an alpha hydroxy product, which minimizes ingrown hairs and rough patches on the skin of both men and women. Can they get an amen for that one? Definitely!

Portlanders will also be pleased to know that Urban Waxx is on track to opening two more locations within the next three years. Right now, however, you can find them at:

You can also learn more about them by reading their blog, and by following them on Twitter and becoming their fan on Facebook.
