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

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?

We totally understand. At European Wax Center - New York - Second Avenue, 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.

I’m On My Period. 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 Wax Service

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 Much Time Will I Have Between Brazilian Waxing or Bikini Waxing Reservations?

While everyone’s hair growth cycle is different, the average time between bikini wax reservations is 3–4 weeks. You may need to schedule a wax service a little earlier or later. To keep that smooth glow for longer, talk with your wax specialist about the products in our EWC Treat® collection. Book your reservation for a bikini wax or Brazilian wax near you today!
