Holy cow, the high ratings for this location are spot on. I was already grateful they were able to take me last minute but the waxing itself was so painless I didnt even realize she was done! I will definitely be making my way back here more often.

I want to share photos but it might be too disturbing! I went in for a Brazilian was 5 minutes late and the receptionist would not check me in instead she wasted my time taking to then say you have to reschedule you’re passed 8 min! After asking for managers contact she decided to let me go. She did not tell me anything and applied scorching hot wax I screen and that’s too hot! She it has to be this hot and applied what felt even hotter I kicked and cried saying you are burning me it’s too hot I can’t tolerate this! It was soo hot that the pulling was nothing compared to the hot wax! I said look I cannot do this is my skin burned? She said no and applied the same heat! At that point I must’ve passed out and said I can’t do this can I please see the wax you’ve pulled? Because I was bloody and had wax residue all over including my clitorys she refuse to show me and said NO YOU DONT WANNA SEE IT! I must’ve passed out because all I remember is her saying I COULD HAVE DONE A BETTER JOB! This one is not as hot ok? I told her forget the Brazilian I wanted to she must have noticed the damage because sudently she was extremely nice telling me next time it be soo much better! I ended up with Burns to my Dermis, swollen glands, infected hair follicle and worse parts of my skin wnt allow the hair to grow because skin is damaged from burns so l have to suffer with infection and painful ingrowns. Is now 2 months no hair in some areas but I am stuck. I have to laser to possibly get some pain relieve. A nightmare

I went there for my first brazillian, and it was the worst first experience ever, I had Paola, she did NOT guide me through any of it and made me feel really judged, i got home and noticed there was a ton of bleeding and wax residue. The front desk was very nice but they pressured us into tipping crazy amounts because we’re minors, and asked if we were tipping too which like obviously we would but u don’t ask a customer that. My friend who I went with got Tracy and she was satisfied, so that’s why they’re getting 2 stars instead of 1, if you ever go MAKE SURE YOU DONT GET PAOLA!!!! anyways i don’t think i’ll be going here again!!

Parker is the best! She makes every visit comfortable and always provides a great service. She is gentle and informative on taking care of your skin between waxes. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a wax specialist.

I love going to this place because, first of all, they’re cheaper than the other wax places that I used to go to AND they also have better quality wax. After I’m done getting waxed, it feels less harsh on my skin and the healing process is much smoother. I have one aesthetician that I see every time I have an appointment because her and I just clicked right away. I highly recommend getting waxed here!

I got a bikini wax for the first time and Parker was amazing! She made me feel comfortable and talked me through the whole service. She also gave me tips on exfoliating to prevent ingrown hairs. If you are looking for a wax specialist go see Parker you won’t be disappointed!

I tried European Wax Center a couple years ago and never strayed since. The special hard wax they use is much gentler and less painful for my sensitive skin. The service is always comfortable and fast, which goes a long way when getting a wax! In particular, I highly recommend Illiana. Her experience shows in her speed, attention to detail, and amazing service with a smile.

Illyana is my favorite!! She does such a great job and always makes me feel so comfortable. I get Brazilians regularly from her and refuse to go anywhere else! I 100000% recommend her for all of your waxing needs!

Love this location! They are on my speed dial when I need a simple touch up or to get business trip/vacation ready. I am EXTREMELY particular about customer service, timeliness (we all have a lot going on from day to day) and most importantly my BROWS! The estician Stephanie is my #1. She is professional yet down to earth, has years of experience and keeps her face and brows perfect. A sign of good work I think 😊. I take my waxing seriously and this location does too. If you are thinking of checking them out, do not hesitate. You will leave feeling fresh and ready to take on your day.

I’ve been to many other wax businesses and European Wax Center tops them all. The staff is always friendly and the location is always cleaned. My specialist is Lilliana and she’s amazing. Every time I have an appointment, she always asking how I’m doing and what’s going on in my life. Definitely recommend her.

I have been going to European Wax Center for over a year now and had a few different people work on me but about 4 months ago I finally found my go to gal! Illiana does the best job on me eyebrows! Any other service she has done on me has been great too! Feels good to have found someone who makes me leave feeling like 100 bucks! Never did I think I would look forward to going to get waxed! So if you are looking for someone book with Illiana I promise she wont disappoint!

I’ve been going to Illiana for about a year or so and she is absolutely amazing! Very sociable, friendly, and certainly a master at her work. She makes every experience comfortable! I switched my locations from Irvine to Lake Forest because I found her! Thanks, Illiana for your work!

I love catching up with her at each of my appointments. She’s very personable and you can tell she really cares about each of her clients. Definitely request her. She’s the best!

Natalia is the best waxer for Brazilians. She is quick (10-15 min) and does a great clean job and makes the time go by fast because she is easy to talk to and very easy going. I buy the 12 wax pack and EWC lets me use them at whatever frequency i want- unlike other wax places that force you to use them in 12 months or you lose them. I love EWC.
