At Waxi Taxi, we believe that everyone deserves to feel comfortable in their own skin. We also understand that while waxing may seem like a routine service to some, it can be an empowering, affirming, or sometimes even an intimidating experience to others. Stepping into such an intimate setting can feel vulnerable, which is why we make it a priority to create a welcoming, inclusive environment, not just during June, but all year round.
Self-care should never come with limits or conditions, and no one should wonder whether or not they’ll be accepted, respected, or understood when they enter a space. Our goal is to always provide an inclusive, safe experience. All you have to do is come as you are.
Self-Care Is For Everyone
We believe that self-care is for everyone. Confidence and self-expression don’t belong to one gender identity or orientation. There is no “right” reason to wax, only your reason. Grooming and personal care are personal choices. Everyone deserves access to professional self-care services without fear of discrimination or harassment. We’re here to make sure that experience is as safe and comfortable as possible.
Creating A Safe And Respectful Experience
Waxing is a very intimate experience, which is why inclusivity is always one of our top priorities. A client should never feel anxious about being judged, questioned, or treated differently, which is why we’re so open about our commitment to inclusivity. From the moment you schedule your wax to the moment you leave our salon, we strive to create an experience that is built on kindness and respect.
We welcome people of all backgrounds, identities, and orientations, and we uphold the same standard for everyone who enters our space. We do not tolerate any harassment or discrimination from employees or clients.
Celebrating Pride
Pride Month is a great opportunity to celebrate all of the progress we have made toward equality, but it also serves as a reminder that there is still work to be done in creating welcoming spaces for everyone. We’re proud to support the LGBTQIA+ community, but our commitment doesn’t end when Pride Month does. We believe that every person deserves the opportunity to practice self-care and access professional services in a space where they feel safe and respected, and that authenticity should always be celebrated all year round.
