Waxie Beauty Salon, San Diego

Despite the name, Waxie Beauty Salon—tucked inside 5th Avenue Salon—not only offers facial and body waxing, but other spa services, too.

• European Luxury facial: Customized to the client's skin, this indulgent, 90-minute session includes the standard facial's soothing steam, deep cleansing, exfoliation and extractions, along with an extended massage of the neck and décolletage and a hand massage via warm, electric mittens.
• Chemical peel: The beauty spot's aesthetician, Tasha, utilizes PCA Skin products during deeply exfoliating chemical peels, designed to reveal younger, smoother skin less affected by wrinkles, sun damage, or acne.
• Back treatment: During this relaxing 60-minute service, Tasha washes and steams backs, then exfoliates them with invigorating sea salt. Then, she performs a massage and extractions before applying skincare products, including a clarifying mud mask.
