European Wax Center

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver arrived early with an unusual package. As he walked into the salon, everyone noticed something odd: the box seemed to be humming softly. Curious, one of the estheticians approached and gently opened the box. Inside was a live canary, tweeting cheerfully. Turns out, it was a neighbor’s escaped pet, delivered instead of wax strips. Everyone had a good laugh, and the bird found its way home safely.

2. A few months ago, a curious customer asked the waxing specialist: ‘Do you offer Brazilian waxes for dogs?’ The therapist paused, looked up from her station, and replied with a straight face: ‘Of course, sir, but only on Mondays.’ The next day, an embarrassed delivery driver walked in, sheepishly asking if they could get their usual leg wax—and maybe something extra special for his pooch? The esthetician smiled warmly and said, ‘No worries, pal—just don’t tell anyone!’

3. A little girl entered the salon holding her teddy bear tightly. When she saw the waxing chairs, she exclaimed in surprise, ‘Mommy, why do they make those things look like horses?’ The stylist smiled and replied, 'Oh honey, those aren’t horses—those are just our special waxing thrones!' The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then giggled as she climbed onto her throne-horse and announced proudly, 'I’m ready for my princess treatment!'

4. In the quiet neighborhood of Brooklyn, a regular would always greet the staff at European Wax Center with a peculiar request. ‘Excuse me,’ he’d say, ‘can I get my beard waxed?’ One day, a delivery driver walked in and asked for his usual service. With a straight face, he requested, 'Can you wax my package?' The staff laughed it off until they realized he meant his banana box on the bike. Turns out, everyone had been waxing the wrong thing!
