Terms of use

Effective October 28, 2026. Smooth Spots (smoothspots.com) is operated by Winback Engine (“we”, “us”). By using the site you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the site.

What Smooth Spots is

Smooth Spots is an independent directory of waxing, sugaring, laser hair removal, threading, brow and lash providers. We collect publicly available information — mostly from each business’s own website and booking pages — and link to our sources. We are not a provider of any treatment, we don’t take bookings or payments, and we are not a party to anything you arrange with a studio.

Information can be wrong or out of date

Hours, prices, services, staff, photos and policies change. Every detail is shown with its source and the date we checked it, but we can’t guarantee it is current or complete. Always confirm with the studio before booking. Nothing on Smooth Spots is medical advice — laser hair removal and other treatments can carry risks, so ask a qualified provider whether a treatment is right for you.

No endorsement, no invented ratings

Being listed is not an endorsement or a quality rating. The trust check shows which details we could verify from public sources; a missing item means we couldn’t confirm it, not that a studio is bad. We don’t write reviews or star ratings and we don’t copy them from other platforms — we link to them.

Featured studios

Some owner-verified studios are Featured. Featured studios have had a call with Winback Engine about its customer-reactivation service and may be Winback Engine customers. They carry a visible “Featured” label and can appear first in the default sort. Featuring never changes a studio’s trust check, prices, photos or review links. More about Featured.

Photos, names and logos

Photos are credited and linked to where they were published, usually the studio’s own website. Business names and logos are shown only to identify the business and belong to their owners. We don’t show photos that are AI-generated or scraped from map services.

If you own a photo, or you’re pictured in one, and want it removed, use the “Request removal” link on the photo or email hello@smoothspots.com with the page link and your connection to the photo. We aim to remove it within 2 business days. You don’t need to prove anything for a removal; we’d rather take a photo down than keep one someone objects to.

Studio owners who claim a profile can choose to let us display photos from their website and social accounts. By ticking that box you confirm you own or have the rights to those photos and grant Smooth Spots a free, non-exclusive license to display them on your profile and in links to it. You can withdraw that permission at any time by emailing us, and we’ll take the photos down.

Other corrections and removals

Anyone can suggest a correction from any studio profile. Owners can claim their listing for free. To ask us to remove a listing or any other content, email hello@smoothspots.com.

Your submissions

When you submit a claim, correction or new studio, you confirm the information is accurate and that you’re allowed to share it. We review submissions before anything changes on a public listing and may decline or edit them. Don’t submit anything unlawful, misleading, or that you don’t have the right to share.

Acceptable use

Don’t misuse the site: no scraping at volume, no attempts to break security, no impersonating a business owner, and no automated submissions.

Links to other sites

We link to studio websites, booking tools, review platforms and social accounts. We don’t control them and aren’t responsible for their content, prices or practices.

Disclaimers and limits

The site is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent the law allows, we aren’t liable for any indirect or consequential loss, or for anything arising from a treatment, booking or business you find through the site. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have that can’t be limited by law.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms; the effective date above will change when we do. These terms are governed by the laws of California. Questions: hello@smoothspots.com.
