The bare necessities
MANILA, Philippines - Cynthia Chua is a visionary. In the mid-‘90s, she founded the Spa Esprit Group, a lifestyle empire, which she believed would fill a gap in the market and provide interesting services that she deemed had been lacking. In 2002, she opened the first Strip branch in Singapore, a waxing salon that offers a range of services and post-wax care products.
In 2009, Harem Inc. brought Strip to Manila to the delight of countless Filipinos. Since then, Strip has become a leader in the field of depilation, always managing to stay ahead of the curve.
The waxing salon prides itself in providing the best painless IPL (Intense Pulsed-Light) System. Its “waxperts” have undergone eight weeks of grueling training at the Strip Academy helmed by ITEC-certified trainers. These waxperts also go through an annual rigorous recertification program to ensure that they consistently provide the same high-quality service for their clients.
Strip has strict in-house hygiene processes surrounding its IPL treatments. Its therapists wear masks and disposable gloves and only use disposable razors and clean all tools with hospital-grade disinfectant before treatment.
The waxing salon also offers a wide range of efficacious post-care products specifically developed to help optimize results and address any concerns that clients may have.
Since it was established, the award-winning waxing salon has served over three million clients in its 40 stores located in nine major cities including London, New York, Hong Kong and Shanghai.
(Strip is located at Serendra, Bonifacio Global City, Greenbelt 5 and SM Mega Fashion Hall. For more information, visit www.strip-manila.com and www.facebook.com/stripmanila.)
