Recent events have encouraged me to share the same piece of advice I give to all my friends/coworkers when they ask me about European Wax Center (which happens more often than not)... If it is your first wax experience, I would recommend somewhere else. If you are a seasoned waxer, meh its fine: decently priced, the spaces are clean, and it gets the job done.
Up until Tuesday this would have been a 3 star review. I've used different locations of this biz and its the same everywhere: Consistently Inconsistent.
Tweeze? Maybe. Talk? Maybe. Same person? Maybe. Go over an area more than once? Maybe. Membership plug? Maybe.
For someone who has been waxing for 7 plus years and had fantastic waxer I went to for the first 3 (were talking scheduled appointments with her when I was back in town from out of state fantastic here) the experience leaves something to be desired, but I didn't have any major issues.... and in fact did encounter a great waxer or two. Unfortunately turnover seems high.
The last two times (2 different waxers) have been enough to shake me out of this easy last minute appointment approach. I mean honestly, I go here because I can make appointments morning of and they don't over charge. Last time the waxer didn't talk at all and used some weird pinching the skin then ripping technique I have neverrrr encountered before and I don't recommend she keeps it up. Major ouch. Giving them the benefit of the doubt I of course last minute scheduled again. Tuesday however pushed this into the review zone. I don't really need to get all graphic here but.... bruises. I am bruised. How does that even happen??!!! It's not like this is my first time or its a challenge (in fact the opposite; I normally skate by with a discounted rate at other spots since they get to skip half the process), I'll say it again.... BRUISED. As in plural.
And I'll leave it at that.
