Trading on Suffolk Street since 2001, UrbanWax is one of the longest-established waxing specialists in Dublin city centre. The business is built around hair removal, Brazilian and Hollywood waxing in particular, with laser hair removal, threading and artistic colour nail work alongside it. Being a specialist rather than a general salon means the therapists do very high volumes of the same treatments, and it shows in the speed. Late opening runs to 8pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, with alternate Sunday hours from 11am to 6pm, useful for anyone who cannot get in during the working week.
