| - Updating this review, as my last one was in 2013.
In my old review I recommended Chanice; however, she no longer works here, so my new favourite waxer is Jessie. She is very thorough and attentive and ensures that I am comfortable whilst she is waxing, and is also just a very sweet lady who makes my appointments pleasant.
This EWC is consistently clean, professional and punctual. They use a good quality wax and they never double dip, however whenever I stray from my regular waxer (Jessie) I seem to get lesser quality waxes. I had my underarms done by a different waxer a couple weeks ago, and merely two days after the wax I was very hairy all over again! It seemed like she broke the hair when she pulled off the wax, instead of pulling the hair out at the root- hence why she spent a lot of time tweezing. That wasn't worth the money I spent, and that's why this EWC is getting 4 stars instead of 5 stars.
So, my advice is to find a waxer who you like and always stick with them. Jessie is fantastic!
Not sure why some reviewers have issues with the front desk staff- they've always been polite to me. They do try to sell you packages but they've always been respectful of my first "no." The packages actually save you money in the long run so they're worth it if you can afford them. I appreciate the courtesy calls 2 days before my appointment because I tend to forget about them.
The products are fantastic, if pricy. However, what's the point of waxing if you get ingrowns? I've used the exfoliate, serum, and body wash, and they all work wonders. However, I skip out on their exfoliate and buy a drugstore brand sometimes because it's cheaper and my skin is tough enough to handle it.
If you've never tried waxing your underarms I recommend it! Chanice got me hooked on underarm waxes and I've never looked back. Shaving is painful, time consuming, and unsightly, but waxing leaves your skin soft and hairless for weeks.
