Our wax experts are willing to answer any questions you have. Here are some of the most common questions that our guests have.

How Long Does My Hair Need to be for My Waxing Service in Houston?

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 - Houston - River Oaks, 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?

You sure can! We are happy to help you get that smooth glow, even while you’re on your period. Just keep in mind that the skin is often more sensitive during this time, and may result in some added discomfort at the time of your wax service.

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 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.
