Don’t be shy, you can ask us anything! Here are some common questions we’ve gotten about the wax experience.

Q: Does My Hair Have to be a Certain Length Before My Waxing Service in Chicago?

A: 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 before your wax appointment. For first time guests, we would stop shaving at least two weeks prior to your visit. The extra length allows our Comfort Wax™ to grip around the hair.

Q: I’m Nervous for My First Wax. How Do I Prepare?

A: We totally understand. At European Wax Center - Chicago - Lincoln Square, we’re all about giving you a luxurious experience during every wax appointment. Because of that, we recommend staying away from activities that could affect your comfort level while waxing. These activities include 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. Of course, if you have questions regarding any medications you’re on, your doctor will be the best resource.

Q: I’m Having My Period. Can I Still Get Waxed?

A: We can absolutely provide a waxing service for you when Aunt Flo’s in town! Please keep in mind that your skin will be more sensitive, so you may experience more discomfort than you have in the past.

Q: How Long Will My Bikini Wax or Brazilian Wax Last?

A: Everyone’s hair growth cycle is a little different, so the time between waxing services will differ from person to person. That being said, the average bikini wax lasts between 3-4 weeks. Want to keep your skin smoother for longer? Ask your wax specialist about using the products in our Strut 365® collection to help maintain your beautiful skin!
