Uni K Wax founder Noemi Grupenmager: Necessity is the mother of invention
For most of her adult life, Noemi Grupenmager was just looking for a solution.
Simply put, the founder of Uni K Wax Center hated being hairy and wasn’t a big fan of shaving. Waxing wasn’t such a great solution, either.
“Back in the ’70s and ’80s everyone used the same thing — those little strips in the back rooms of nail salons,” said Grupenmager at a launch party of her newest center in Midtown Miami Thursday night. “They were painful and I had a bad reaction to the [procedure]. I kept thinking, ‘I have to find a better way.’”
