I get mine done at the Beauty Salon (it says so here) on Little Clarendon Street, though I've also had it done at Debenham's before (the hairdresser's has a beauty salon attached IIRC). The price is approx £10 - £13 for a half-leg wax, so not dissimilar to a manicure.
The place I go to is called Odessey (ugh!) and the phone no is 557060.
I've never got anything other than a half leg wax so don't know what it's like for a full leg. I mean, pain-wise. The half-leg is ouchie but bearable. The key is for someone else to pull it, I feel...
Some of my friends get the Babyliss electrical personal beauty stuff from places like Boots -- ie little leg-hair-puller-outers that you run up & down your legs like an electric razor, only not exactly. I think your hairs don't have to be all that long for that. Sounds yucky to me though...
