Pros

Good tips and meet a lot of great professional woman

Cons

High employee turnover. Conniving and Manipulative store manager who lied to get me fired. I've sent several complaint emails to franchise owner and they did nothing but instead fire me for defending myself and not signing an untruthful write up. I was a hardworking employee that had a high volume of repeat guest and the top seller in products and did not deserve to be terminated. They NEVER once sat down to have a meeting about all the issue me and several other waxers were having with the new store manager. The release is a blessing but I don't want anyone else to be treated this way. This location is horrible and they treat their employees like crap but in a sneaky undercover manipulative way. BEWARE

Pros

Great coworkers, supportive team environment, loyal clients, and valuable opportunities to develop professional skills.

Cons

I’d like to raise some concerns about communication and fairness. We are asked to communicate everything, yet often our messages go unanswered or are met with a negative attitude. There is also a sense of favoritism in time-off approvals. Last-minute scheduling changes have disrupted my plans due to lack of notice. I’ve been incorrectly scheduled due to miscommunication, and I’ve had intense shifts without reasonable breaks. Additionally, our manager consistently arrives later than anyone, often when clients are waiting to pay, yet she gives attitude to others for minor delays. On top of that, product management is often last-minute. We run out of supplies like products, creams, or paper, and it only gets addressed when urgent, forcing us to scramble between rooms. I’m bringing these concerns forward because I hope for a more consistent, supportive, and equitable work environment for all of us.
