The Wicked Waxer is run by Kaycie McClure from Suite 8 at 611 W Briar Place in East Lakeview. Clients are buzzed into the building through a call box and wait in a waiting area before their appointment. Kaycie opened the business on her own after working at two Chicago waxing salons.
Services are grouped into bikini, brow, featured and combo bookings. The Brazilian is $85, and the established client version at the same price removes all hair from the labia and between the cheeks, with hair on top optional.
Bikini work uses both hard wax and soft wax, and facial waxing uses a gentle creme wax. Brow tints in the hybrid service use Bronsun Dye, and brow lamination is done with the Brow Down Studio system.
Before an appointment, the salon suggests avoiding waxing close to the menstrual cycle and waxing roughly once a month to reduce discomfort. If pain is a concern, it suggests taking ibuprofen 30 to 60 minutes beforehand. Clients are asked to let hair grow about two weeks after shaving, to exfoliate regularly and stay hydrated in the days before, and not to tweeze brows beforehand, since brow goals are talked through at the appointment.
Cancellations or reschedules need 24 hours notice. Changes made with less notice are charged 50 percent of the service total, and no-shows are charged the full total. Cash, Chase QuickPay, Venmo, Visa and Mastercard are accepted. Brazilian and brow waxing are listed on Fresha as for female clients only. A Fresha listing shows a 5 rating from 54 votes.
Hair removal is meant to be quick, relaxed and pleasant, with a light tone during appointments.
