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

How Long Is Long Enough for Waxing in San Diego?

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 Get My Skin Ready for My Wax Reservation?

Our experts at European Wax Center - San Diego - Mission Valley are all about giving you the luxurious wax experience you deserve. Prior to your reservation, we recommend refraining from tanning and consuming alcohol or significant amounts of caffeine. This can cause your pores to tighten and leave your skin more sensitive during treatment. Are you on medication? Let your wax specialist know so that they can ensure a safe experience.

It’s My Time of the Month. Can I Still Get a Wax?

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 for Your First Visit

First time getting a Brazilian wax? No need to worry! Here’s what to expect during your wax service. First, our experienced wax specialists will cleanse the area to prepare your skin for waxing. They will then apply a pre-wax oil to protect and soothe your skin, minimizing any potential discomfort. Using our renowned Comfort Wax®, a specially formulated hard wax, our experts apply it to your skin and remove it without the need for a cloth strip. This method is known for its effectiveness and gentle approach. Finally, to soothe and rejuvenate your skin, our after-wax lotions and serums are applied to leave you silky smooth.

How Long Should I Wait Before My Next Bikini Wax or Brazilian Wax?

The hair growth cycle varies from person to person, so you may need more or less time between wax services than others. Typically, your bikini wax should last between 3–4 weeks. Book your reservation for a bikini or Brazilian wax near you today and experience unbelievably smooth skin. P.S. Don’t forget to ask your wax specialist about using the products in our EWC Treat® collection to keep your skin smoother for longer!
