How much do you tip at European Wax Center? ›

How Much Should You Tip Your Waxing Expert? “Like any other service environment, gratuity is at the discretion of our guests, but 20% is standard and a good starting point,” says Helene Marie, waxing expert at European Wax Center.

Start at the baseline industry standard of 15-20% of the cost of your bikini wax. Feel free to tip at the lower end of this if your service was not up to your standards.

Our Unique Comfort Wax®

In addition to beeswax, our Comfort Wax® is formulated with skin-soothing ingredients. Additionally, Comfort Wax® is an alcohol-free, hard wax that doesn't adhere to the skin. It applies at a warm temperature, removes easily, without using strips, and is gentle on all hair and skin types.

We welcome everyone!) Can I wax if I'm having my period? Sure, we can absolutely wax you if it's that time of the month.

Hard wax is gentler on your skin. It's better suited for sensitive areas, and is less painful to remove. Soft wax is better suited for large areas, like your legs or back. If you're new to waxing, you may want to start off with a waxing session from a licensed esthetician or dermatologist.

Which wax is best for Brazilian? ›

Most people agree that for a Brazilian wax, hard wax is the best option. If your hair is coarse, multiple applications will be necessary, and hard wax allows for this. Additionally, because this area of your body is so sensitive, hard wax removal tends to be less painful.

How Much to Tip. If you choose to tip your injector, it should be between 10 and 20 percent of the total bill, which is standard in the beauty industry. But don't be offended if your injector also refuses your offer. Amelina says she politely declines tips from her clients.

Tipping for laser hair removal treatments is similar to tipping for other beauty services. If you're not sure how much to tip, a general rule of thumb is to tip between 15% to 20% of the total cost of the treatment.

The standard 20 percent tip also applies for a facial. Samantha Susca, lead esthetician at Casa Cipriani New York Spa, says that if a facial service is comped or discounted, you'll still want to tip 20% off the regular price.
