For many centuries, excessive facial hair was necessary to protect skin from the harsh elements and to give ancient, rugged pillows a soft pillow to rest against. Catch up with the whiskerless times with today's Groupon: for $6, you get a threading or waxing service at Forever Young Laser and Spa on Bulyea Road (up to a $12.60 value, including GST).

The adept bristle busters at Forever Young smooth over downy epidermises with modern hair deterrents and gentle techniques hailing from ancient days. Customers opting for the classic waxing method can banish stubble from the lip (an $8 value), eyebrows (a $10 value), chin (a $12 value), and sideburns (a $12 value). The powerful polish includes an inhibitor application that thwarts regrowth and deflects the lame insults hurled by each quill. For sensitive skin types or patrons using medicated skin creams, threading gently clarifies hirsute patches along the upper lip (an $8 value), forehead (an $8 value), sides (an $8 value), chin (a $10 value), and brow line (a $12 value). Unlike with tweezing, threaded hairs reappear thinner, skin in the area experiences a facial-like exfoliation, and eyebrows can be shaped into a flattering contour.
