Here are the answers to some of our frequently asked questions!

Does My Hair Have to be a Certain Length Before My Waxing Service in Capitola?

There isn’t an exact length that your hair has to be in order to wax; however, our experts recommend that you let your hair grow to at least ¼ inch long (the size of a sprinkle) before your wax reservation. For first time guests, we recommend you stop shaving at least two weeks prior to your visit. The extra length allows our Comfort Wax® to grip around the hair more easily.

How Do I Prepare for My Wax?

We totally understand. At European Wax Center - Capitola, we’re all about giving you a luxurious experience during every wax service. That’s why we recommend staying away from activities that could affect your comfort level while waxing. This includes tanning, consuming alcohol, and drinking significant amounts of caffeine. If you’re on any medications, let your wax specialist know as some medications can affect how your body responds to the wax.

Can I Wax During My Time of the Month?

Yes! Our wax specialists are happy to give you smooth, radiant skin when you’re on your cycle. Just keep in mind that your skin will be more sensitive, and you may experience a bit more discomfort than you have in the past.

Brazilian Wax: What to Expect at Your First Visit

If you're feeling a bit nervous about your first Brazilian or bikini wax service, don’t fret! Here’s a breakdown of what to expect. Our experienced wax specialists begin by thoroughly cleansing the area to ensure proper adhesion of the wax. To protect and soothe your skin, a pre-wax oil is applied next. Our signature Comfort Wax®, a specialized hard wax, is carefully applied to the bikini area. The wax is then removed without the need for a cloth strip. Finally, our wax specialists apply our specially formulated after-wax body lotions and serums to nourish and revitalize your skin.

How Soon Will I Have to Come in for My Next Bikini Wax or Brazilian Wax?

Most enjoy 3–4 weeks between bikini wax reservations; however, everyone’s hair growth cycle is a little different. The time in between your wax service may be more or less than someone else’s. If you want to keep your skin feeling smoother for longer, ask your wax specialist about using the products in our EWC Treat® collection.
