Like your unemployed younger brother, hair can sometimes show up uninvited and refuse to leave. Evict unwanted visitors with today's deal: for $20, you get $40 worth of waxing services from Cindy Esser-Thorin, owner of Pink Cheeks in Sherman Oaks. The staff at Pink Cheeks Salon uproots freeloading fur and squatting strands with hands steadied by years of experience. Each depilation is performed by a high-class duet of spun honeybees' wax and 100% Egyptian cotton muslin, which removes hair at the root and leaves skin as smooth as a mannequin covered in glossy magazine pages. Hair removal choices include bikini ($48) and playboy ($50).

• My past few visits to the salon have been great. There is no pain-free waxing, but a good waxer can minimize your pain by getting the job done ASAP. – c. m., Yelp
• Cindy, it’s those thoughtful gestures that you do that make you the wonderful person that you are. No wonder that your lobby is packed, that your employees respect and love you and that you are the success in business that you are. – Margi P, Citysearch
