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

How Long Is Long Enough for Waxing in Crystal Lake?

We say let the hair grow to about ¼ inch (the length of a sprinkle). This gives our Comfort Wax® room to grab the hair and give you the smooth look you want. For first-time guests, this means refraining from shaving at least two weeks prior to your wax.

How Do I Prepare for My Wax?

At European Wax Center - Crystal Lake – Crystal Point, our waxing services are all about giving you touchable, smooth skin that leaves you feeling gorgeous. To ensure your utmost comfort during your wax service, we recommend avoiding tanning, drinking significant amounts of caffeine, and consuming alcohol prior to your reservation. These items can cause your pores to tighten, cause discomfort, and make your waxing session feel less than luxurious. Please let your wax specialist know if you’re on any medications to ensure that you are safe during your wax service.

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

Absolutely! You are more than welcome to come in for a wax service during your time of the month. Just remember, your skin will be more sensitive, and you may experience more discomfort than usual.

Brazilian Wax: What to Expect for 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?

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!
