I have been a loyal European Wax Center (EWC) client since 2018, consistently receiving services at…read morevarious locations throughout Los Angeles and New York with zero issues--until I had the absolute misfortune of visiting the European Wax Center at The Strand on Huebner in San Antonio, Texas. This was a routine appointment--my usual services with the addition of a simple eyebrow cleanup. What I walked away with was not only physical damage but an experience so shockingly unprofessional that it has permanently soured my trust in this brand. The so-called "wax specialist" managed to get wax stuck in my hair and proceeded to over-wax one of my eyebrows to the point of it being practically bald. This was the complete opposite of what I clearly requested: a basic, minimal clean-up to maintain my natural shape. The difference between my two brows is glaring--something no competent technician should ever allow to happen. When I expressed my horror and asked to speak to the manager, Victoria Willis, a multi-unit manager, I was flat-out refused. Let me repeat that: A manager refused to speak to a customer who had just received visible, damaging, and unacceptable service at the hands of her staff. I've worked in the corporate world both as an employee and a customer, and never in my life have I witnessed such blatant disregard for customer care or accountability. In what world does a manager hide from a legitimate complaint involving botched services and physical injury? The sheer lack of professionalism, empathy, and basic human decency is appalling. To make matters worse, I had redness, irritation, and inflammation along my brow line and scalp from the wax--documented in the photos attached. No one in leadership offered an apology, or any form of resolution. I was only offered hair growth product AFTER I burst out in tears over this horrific experience and my close to bald brow. In the end, I was dismissed like my experience didn't matter. This location is an embarrassment to the EWC brand. If Victoria Willis is the standard for leadership, it reflects a toxic culture of negligence and cowardice. To the corporate office: Do better. And to other customers--go elsewhere unless you want your appearance and dignity left in shambles.

The facial was amazingggggg it was so relaxing and the massage was to die for. She gave such a detailed arm, shoulder rub down that at first made me think wait did I book a massage as well?!? But nope it comes with the massage! :)))) also the facial bed was so comfy, I honestly don't say this much but I feel like it's better than my own bed at home and my bed is really good. Also my brows came out perfect!!! Their products are all quality high end products which you can even purchase from them for at home use. I love the friendliness and homey feel of the salon. Very aesthetically pleasing. Def 10 stars if I could. I really do feel like they are already so busy that I hate to give a good review and won't be able to find an appointment. But I'd be doing a disservice to all women to keep this little charm to my self. So thank me later ladies.

Been here a few times to clean up my eyebrows and nostrils and I'm a fan of their services! Not…read moreonly are their services well priced; however, it truly is seamless to get the waxing done. They use a special wax and make sure to take their time. You should allocate time to be here and possibly head elsewhere if you're on a time crunch. WTC takes pride in their work and they want to make sure you leave without the hair you came in with. I don't like my eyebrows to be shaped like crazy so it's nice they can have them looking natural without Chewbacca lying on a hammock between my eyebrows... My favorite part is their honesty and that includes when you're not due for another service. I recently came in asking if I needed to get my eyebrows done and instead they suggested I just do a "maintenance" service to hold me until my next full eyebrow wax. They use a calming oil afterwards to help with the redness which I greatly appreciate. Most importantly is the waxing doesn't hurt; rather it's like a quick flinch. If you have any allergies you should get your nostrils done! It truly makes a difference and you won't have to worry about them going all the way up your nose. It's just around the nostril flares. PS- They have a yelp checkin offer for your chance to win a free service!

In the midst of getting my eyebrows done, a lot of people started to walk in and I feel like the tech started out good but rushed at the end. She left my eyebrows uneven, I didn't fully notice until I got in my car, and also left some random hairs that I had to tweeze when I got home. After she waxed, she threaded the rest, but I feel like that didn't really give her the precision needed to leave my eyebrows clean. I paid $20 for an eyebrow wax which I would've been fine with if my eyebrows were perfect and a symmetrical and I didn't have to do anything when I left but I've paid $12 for an eyebrow wax that was much cleaner. The facility was clean, the service was quick, but this will not be a place that I come back to.
