What You'll Get
Jump to: Reviews | Day Spa: Nights
Grin and bare it with today’s Groupon: $30 gets you a Brazilian ($65), Playboy ($65), or French ($55) bikini wax from Brazilian Bikini Wax Spa, a popular service at Suddenly Slimmer’s wellness center and day spa. This Groupon is perfect if you’re planning a winter getaway somewhere warm, are looking to spice things up, or are just seeking a low-maintenance alternative to shaving.
Brazilian-born aesthetician Dannielli Marcelino, who refers to herself as the Queen of Waxing, became interested in waxing at a young age and practiced on family members. She graduated from aesthetics school and now expertly de-fuzzes up to 15 clients a day alongside the aestheticians she's trained to become wax-masters. Her waxing services have gained her TV attention from Fox 10 News, Good Morning America, and Channel 15 News, plus print coverage in Yes Magazine and the Arizona Republic.
With this Groupon, you can pick from a Brazilian (hair is removed from front and back, leaving only a strip in front; $65), Playboy (all hair is removed front and back; $65), or French bikini wax (hair is removed in front, but not back; $55). Calming candles and orchids create a Zen-like distraction while a wax technician gets to work warming up a pot of bubblegum-pink goop. She’ll powder for protection, spread on the strips, and with a few quick pulls, your below-the-belt makeover is complete, leaving you smooth for up to four weeks. You can also experiment with shapes—Dannielli is the Monet of waxing; she’s done initials (surprise a significant other), an exclamation point (surprise grammar-enthusiasts), hearts (surprise a cardiologist), and a lightning bolt (surprise Lawrence Taylor). Keep in mind that special requests may cost more.
Reviews

Local reviewers and Insider Pages reviewers give it five stars:
- Wow! I was really impressed with everyone at this spa. They are real experts in waxing and facials...and believe me I've been spas all over the globe! The wax was painless, and my skin felt smooth for weeks. – spa princess, Yahoo! Local
- I have been trying my bikini wax in many other places until I found the real thing. The girl that did my waxing is from Suddenly Slimmer Spa and imagine? She is really from Brazil. She did my best ever bikini wax! – Bliss, Yahoo! Local
- I went there for my facial and blame it on Rio package and it was great. They say it takes an hour but I was out of there quicker then a cheetah with the wax. – Britney A., Insider Pages
Day Spa: Nights
Suddenly Slimmer offers a variety of soothing treatments—during the day. But many clients are turning to a whole new kind of spa experience: the night spa. The services it offers are similar, but with the mystery and intrigue that could only happen at night. Here are the key differences between a day spa and a night spa:
Day Spa: Relaxing massage treatments
Night Spa: Gosh darn vampires everywhere
Day Spa: Rejuvenating skin treatments
Night Spa: Reanimating skin experiments
Day Spa: Beautifying waxing services
Night Spa: The wind is driving everyone insane; a mysterious figure appears on a cloud of dust
