South Beach Vanity
Wax off, tan on. In Miami, it’s imperative to be hairless at all times. Happily, the best South American waxers seem to end up there.
See Lulu at the J. Sisters’ southern outpost (305-672-7142): Her Brazilian bikini wax is remarkably precise and long-lasting. It’s equally important to return home looking sun-kissed: Miami’s airbrush tanners take their medium very seriously, expertly sculpting phony abs and triceps with their artfully applied spray. Schedule an appointment at SoBe Tan by Fabiola (305-532-0221) for the morning you fly out of town: For $40 and fifteen minutes, you’ll get a deep, bronzed glow that even an extra week on the beach wouldn’t get you.
