FAQs

Do you tip your waxer at European Wax Center? ›

Cash and credit card tips are both accepted. Tips from guest in cat are given to your wax associate. If they tip on the card, it goes straight to their paycheck!

What to Wear. Loose & comfortable is the way to go! Just-waxed skin is always a bit more sensitive.

We use our proprietary hard, stripless wax made exclusively for European Wax Center called Comfort Wax®. First, we cleanse the area to remove any makeup, oils or lotions that could prevent the quality of your wax from taking place. Next, we protect the skin with our soothing pre-wax oil. Then, it's time for your wax!

European Wax Center products are crafted by experts and created with waxed skin in mind. Our products are designed to work together to help keep skin smooth and to extend your waxing results. Our private waxing suites are sanitized after each guest, providing a comfortable, discreet space for your service.

After your hair removal waxing appointment, avoid taking a shower. A post-depilatory lotion will be used by your esthetician to clean the region they waxed; this will remove any wax residue, calm the skin, and keep the area clean for some time.

Yes, it is customary to tip your aesthetician. I usually tip 20%, but I think between 15% and 20% is acceptable. For a $25 wax, I would just pay $30 even. I just had a Brazilian a couple days ago.

Second, yes, you can still bikini or Brazilian wax. However, you may experience more skin sensitivity due to the hormonal changes your body's going through. Our wax specialists will make you as comfortable as possible during the service.

Many clients will have different pain tolerance levels, so it's hard to give a true answer to this question. However, the wax being used is hard wax, which is known for being less painful and a great option for more sensitive skin types.

If it's your first time, expect it to be a bit painful, though it is fairly quick. "Expect the service to be more uncomfortable if you have never waxed, are coming off shaving, or if your hair is a little longer," Patek tells Allure. She adds, however, that it does get easier every time.

What's the difference between a Brazilian wax and sugaring? ›

As far as application goes, wax is applied in the direction of hair growth and removed in the opposite direction. In contrast, sugaring uses a room-temperature paste applied against the direction of hair growth, before removing in the direction of hair growth.

Risk of Infections

Folliculitis occurs when wax damages your hair follicles. This gives bacteria a ticket to invade them, infect them, and form pus-filled tiny bumps on your skin. The molluscum contagiosum typically occurs as a result of Brazilian wax caused by double-dipping the wax stick.

Start at the baseline industry standard of 15-20% of the cost of your bikini wax. Feel free to tip at the lower end of this if your service was not up to your standards. Don't forget to ask them for a modification before letting your displeasure be reflected in your tip, though- they may have a solution!

This product worked! It takes time but after a week of using this product I noticed that an ingrown hair bump was starting to go down, a few days later the ingrown felt tender, lastly, I felt relief when the ingrown was removed.

European Wax Center has always used tweezers as a finishing touch post-wax to remove stray hairs.

How Much Should You Tip When Getting Your Eyebrows Done? According to celebrity brow stylist Joey Healy, tipping 20% for eyebrow services — be it waxing, threading or plucking — is the way to go. There are instances where he recommends tipping more than 20%.

Remember the golden rule: "You should tip 20% on the entire service cost, not per individual," says Schweitzer. So if your haircut and blow-dry cost $40 total, and your color was $60, your total service cost comes to $100. That means you should tip $20 divided between the colorist and stylist.

Yes! Our wax specialists are happy to give you smooth, radiant skin when you're on your cycle.

Tipping for laser hair removal is generally expected, but there may be some circumstances where it is not necessary or appropriate. For example, if the service was not satisfactory or if the technician was unprofessional, tipping may not be warranted.
