Urban Chic Beauty was established in Leeds City Centre in 2006 with one clear mission: to offer expert treatments delivered with integrity, warmth and exceptional skill. Over the years, we’ve welcomed thousands of clients through our doors and built a reputation as Leeds’ leading specialists in intimate waxing and premium beauty treatments.

Back when waxing was still done the old-fashioned way, we were the first salon in the city to introduce modern hot wax techniques — setting a new standard for comfort and efficiency. From there, Urban Chic Beauty became known as the quiet authority in waxing; many therapists across Yorkshire learned their technique, knowledge and client-care standards through our ethos and training. In other words:

we’ve been perfecting this long before it became popular.

At Urban Chic Beauty, expertise isn’t a trend — it’s who we are.

We believe that every client deserves to feel comfortable, confident and looked after from the moment they walk in. That means no rushed services, no shortcuts, and no “I did an online course so now I’m a therapist” energy. Our treatments are delivered by qualified, skilled professionals who take pride in their craft.

Whether you visit us for intimate waxing, results-driven facials or a moment of relaxation, our focus is always the same:

beautiful results, exceptional care and a level of skill you can trust.

This is why clients choose us — and stay with us.

If you want expertise, professionalism and treatments that make you look and feel incredible, you’re in the right place.
