Hello Britany

Most salons offer waxing for men these days.  Waxing is no longer just for women.  More and more men are getting it done, so don't worry about that, remember your money is as good as the next persons, and the salons are places of business. 

In my own experience, when I first started looking for a place for waxing, most would do it but there were some who would not wax the bikini area of men, if they were female estheticians.  I tried several places till I found one that I liked, that I was comfortable with, who's results were good,  and that I could afford.  I've been seeing her for the passed 5 to 6 years or so.  We have a great relationship now and I get price breaks on other sevices from her, like eyebrow waxing and tinting.  It's a matter of shopping around.   Different places use different waxes, sugars, and technics.  It's all a matter of your preference.

When you call just ask if they do waxing for men and let them know what areas you are looking to get waxed i.e. back, legs, arms, chest.  Be honest with them.  While I don't live in your area, I'm sure there is someone here who may know the area you are asking about.

Good luck.

Steph.
