An incredibly poorly run location. It's sad how bad this EWC has become, considering they used to…read morebe so good. Their manager Kyla is rude and dismissive and does not follow up to escalations or issues. I go to a different location now and they let me know that I had an eyebrow package from a long time ago. I asked for a refund since I didn't need it and hadn't used it and they directed me to this location to process the refund since I bought it here. I called 4 times over 3 weeks to try to get this processed only to be told they'd leave a message for their manager and their manager would call me back. When I asked how they were communicating with their manager, they told me they left her post-it notes. What a great system, am I right? After calling today and getting the same runaround, I had to reach out the Redwood City location to get any type of support or response. They were extremely helpful and you could tell they knew what they were doing. They let me know they submitted a ticket to the franchise owner based on my poor experience with this location. So, honestly shout out to EWC RWC! Anyway, back to FC, I never got a call back and after finally getting the manager's email, I got an incredibly rude response without any apologies, stating that she told her team to follow up with me. She told me that the package was purchased in 2000 so she couldn't refund it (EWC as a company was founded in 2004). When I asked again about the follow up, she told me I'm no longer welcome at their location. So oh well I guess? Hopefully I get this resolved eventually.

From the…read moremoment I walked in, the space felt clean, private, and calm -- which matters a LOT for a service like this. Wendy is the kind of person who makes you feel comfortable immediately. She's warm, professional, and super efficient without ever feeling rushed. She checks in with you throughout, has a gentle technique, and you can tell she has years of experience. The Brazilian itself was way more manageable than past places I've been -- and I had minimal irritation after, which is a huge win for my sensitive skin. Also: she's thorough. Like... she cares about the details and it shows. I left feeling smooth, clean, and genuinely taken care of (not like I was just another appointment being pushed through). If you're new to waxing, nervous, or picky about who you trust -- book Wendy. This is 100% my new go-to spot.

It definitely did hurt but pretty manageable in my opinion but it also depends on your pain tolerance.

I have less tolerance for pain and for that I have been staying away from eyebrow threading or waxing. The first time I visited Danica, she took a look and said that she can do tweezing instead of waxing. I didn't trust her initially but let her take care of my eyebrow. She did an amazing job, very detailed and when she was done, I was very much satisfied with her work and it didn't pain much. I go for basic facial treatment to her. She does an excellent job in pore extraction and my skin feels lot better and fresh. I literally get tears swelled up while pore extraction but that's coz she does good job at it.

I can't see myself going to anyone else for my facials, and I've recommended the AGBC to family and friends who swear that Jamie is unmatched when it comes to facials.
