TRENTON, N.J.-New Jersey is smoothing out differences over a plan to ban bare-it-all bikini waxing.
The state on Friday decided to reverse course on the proposal after angry salon owners complained about losing business ahead of swimsuit season.
“It was an unnecessary issue,” said spa owner Linda Orsuto. “In New Jersey especially, where the government has been picking our pockets for so long, it was like, ‘Just stay out of our pants, will you?'”
The state Cosmetology and Hairstyling Board proposed banning so-called “Brazilian” bikini waxing after two women were hospitalized for infections following the procedure.
