Former froyo spot will become body waxing center on 2nd Avenue, just because



EVG Waxing Center Correspondent Steven noticed that the signage is up for the next tenant at 120 Second Ave. — another Manhattan location for the (a?) Uni K Wax Center.



The Uni K folks offer body waxing, bikini waxing and other various waxings for men and women, per their website.

The address here near East Seventh Street is returing to its spa roots. After a short-lived time as the froyo spot Twister, the storefront housed a Spa Belles.

    I think that's supposed to be "Unik," i.e. "unique," Wax. Because these people aren't just some generic run-of-the-mill removers of body hair! They are ~sPeciAL~. And they don't need your "proper spelling" either, ya squares!

    seriously though, let's always call it "Uni K. Wax" just to bug the hell out of them.

    Oh my! Now I won't need to walk a block out of my way to find one of the other myriad waxing and threading salons in the neighborhood...and I certainly can't find a waxing kit or strips at the 29 mass market drug stores nearby - that's where I go to buy my sushi and bananas.

    Meanwhile, I now have to drag my laundry three blocks further because we need more restaurants, waxing salons and bars rather than keeping some of the service industries in the neighborhood.

    If only I could get a wax and a froyo at the same time.

    I could see this turning into some sort of hellish Laurel and Hardy skit:

    Laurel: Anyone know where I can get my eunuch waxed?
    Hardy: Have you tried Unik Waxing?
    Laurel: THAT'S WHAT I JUST SAID!

    Will the wax be applied from a hoof?

    Sanitize everything, including your body. Hair bad, hairless good. Next thing they will have a tower to police your body. Take back your bidy!
