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

How Long Is Long Enough for Waxing in Merrillville?

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?

Your visit at European Wax Center - Merrillville - Merrillville Plaza is all about giving you the pampering you need to feel like the star you are. Because of this, we recommend avoiding anything that could cause discomfort during your wax reservation. Tanning, consuming alcohol, and drinking significant amounts of caffeine can cause your pores to tighten and your skin to be more sensitive during treatment. Let your wax specialist know if you’re on any medications so that we can ensure a safe waxing experience. Ask your doctor if you have any questions regarding the medications you’re on.

Uh Oh, My Period Just Started. Can I Still Get Waxed?

Yes! Our wax specialists are more than happy to provide waxing services for you during your time of the month. Please keep in mind, your skin will be more sensitive, so your experience may feel less comfortable than usual.

Brazilian Wax: What to Expect During Your 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.

When Will I Need to Schedule My Next Bikini Wax or Brazilian Wax?

The time between waxing services varies from person to person. On average, a bikini wax lasts between 3–4 weeks. If you’re looking to keep your skin smoother for longer, we recommend using the products in our EWC Treat® collection. These products are designed to give your skin the daily pampering it deserves.
