European Wax Center

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the lights were off and customers had left, a little girl would appear in front of the salon’s closed doors. She’d wave shyly at the security camera, then run away as soon as anyone noticed her. One day, an old lady came for waxing and kept asking where the little girl was. The esthetician smiled and said she must be on break. Later that evening, the security guard saw the girl again, waving from behind the door. He waved back, thinking it was just a prank until he heard someone whisper ‘Finally, someone waves back!’

2. Ever since that old European man moved in next door, some say he’s been sneaking into the wax center after hours. One curious customer asked: ‘Does anyone else hear those strange noises coming from inside late at night?’ Another rumor had it that a delivery driver once saw an elderly gentleman leaving through the back door with a box marked ‘special ingredients.’ But when security cameras were installed, all they caught was a cat carrying away a roll of duct tape. The end result? A new sign reading: “European Wax Center—No Late-Night Appointments Accepted.”

3. One morning, while a regular was getting his eyebrows waxed, the PA system crackled to life. ‘Ladies and gentlemen,’ it announced, ‘we apologize for any inconvenience, but our mascara artist has gone missing.’ A delivery driver walked in, confused. ‘Did you guys lose someone?’ he asked. The manager shrugged, ‘Not sure… she just vanished.’ A few minutes later, an elderly gentleman emerged from behind the curtain, makeup perfectly applied. He winked at everyone and said, ‘Mission accomplished!’

4. At closing time, when the last customer left, the air conditioning unit outside began emitting an eerie humming sound. Employees passing by swore it changed pitch depending on who walked near. One day, a delivery driver came in complaining that his truck was acting up. As he sat there, the humming got louder—then suddenly, the AC stopped and everything went deathly quiet. The driver looked around nervously, but everyone just smiled and said, ‘It’s probably your engine.’
