Wax in the City Closed DownAnother one bites the dust. Wax in the city, a relatively popular spa, manicure/padicure, waxing joint - with three branches - closed down in April this year. Over 3,000 customers have been left in the lurch in over thousands of dollars of unfulfilled spa packages. Interestingly enough, netizens believe that Wax in the City is related to another defunct spa, also of the same name, which was located in Johannesburg, South Africa.
