Personal Groomer in New York

[N13]

Hi,

 

Trying to find someone for 'personal' grooming in Manhattan. Waxing the nether-regions. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks.

I would like to know myself. My groomer has retired/moved to another town. He mentioned 'Nickel Spa' (http://nickelspanyc.com/newyorkspa/nickel-services/waxing/) but the service there seems to be hit or miss, depending on whom you get to do the work.

 

I found a guy on adam4adam (http://www.adam4adam.com/?p=Beautician), who is the owner of http://www.nybodyhairremovalformen.com I did chat with him a bit, had a positive vibe but haven't actually gone there yet. I could definitely use a 'spring cleaning' ...

I used to see a really handsome guy whose name I think was Gregory Cartwright. First saw him when he escorted but even later when he quit escorting and opened a massage business. First was in NYC around 9th and 54th but I think he moved to bigger quarters and had several other guys join him. They did it all, massage, waxing etc.

Thanks for the response. I have found Nickel Spa to be too impressed with themselves and not very good. Unfortunate because they are quite close to where I live. I may give adam4adam a shot.

Greg was my 'go to guy' for many years, both as Troy and then as Greg, a personal groomer. Unfortunately, he has left the city. One of my regrets is that there has not been another escort as good looking, responsive or nice that I have been able to find.

why the pain of waxing when all you have to do is use "Magic" Men's cream shave (originally developed for Black guys for beard removal). Smear it on, wait about ten minutes and wash off in the shower and anywhere you want will be baby smooth!! No more wax, no more "accidents" shaving! You an get it at most drug stores or on the web - about $6 for a large tube.

I think Wellness Men's Spa does grooming and waxing of all body areas.

That's great advice, but I want to be trimmed only, not waxed. I'll keep it in mind though. Have you tried it in your ass crack? How was it? I'm concerned that the chemicals in a product like 'Magic' could be a bit harsh.

I have used the "Magic" stuff and it burned the hell out of my crotch. Took 3 weeks to heal. If you are not an African American man you have to be very careful.

i use the stuff once a month everywhere - arms, legs, crotch, ass. Been doing so for years. You should probably do a test patch, about 1-2 inches around a few days before doing the rest of your body. That way you'll know if you have a reaction. Says so on the tube too.

Haven't decided what to do yet, but thanks to everyone for your responses.

Wow! Sounds like a very entrepeneuria fellow, I wish he was still around.

 

Hopefully he didn't pick up this iphone (cellphone) while waxing a client... Just kidding!
