THE OPPORTUNITY
This isn't just a job. It's a clientele you build, a skill you sharpen, and a business that's yours.
As a Wax Specialist at European Wax Center, you're the expert in the room. Guests trust you with their skin, their comfort, and their confidence. You'll deliver high-quality waxing services in your own private suite, build real relationships with returning guests, and grow a loyal book of business - all within the support of a nationally recognized brand.
We're Ballast Wax, a fast-growing multi-unit EWC franchisee. We invest heavily in the development of our Wax Specialists because we know that when you grow, our centers grow. You'll have access to ongoing training, brand education, and a team that genuinely wants to see you thrive - technically, professionally, and financially.

At Ballast Wax, we believe a great Wax Specialist is running their own business - building a loyal guest base, refining their technique, and growing their income through skill and relationships. We provide the brand, the tools, and the training. You bring the passion and the professionalism.
Structured onboarding and EWC brand certification to set you up for success from day one
Ongoing technical training and product education - stay sharp, stay current
Access to EWC's national brand resources, protocols, and best practices

A clear path to senior specialist, lead, and leadership roles for those who want more
WHO YOU ARE
You have the license. Now let's build the business.
You hold an active Esthetician or Cosmetologist license in the state where you're applying - this is required.
You care about your guests beyond the service. You remember names, ask about their skin, and build trust one appointment at a time.
You're comfortable recommending products and services. You educate confidently and let the results speak for themselves.
You take sanitation and standards seriously. Your suite is always guest-ready and your protocols are never compromised.
You're a learner. Whether you're brand new or experienced, you show up to training ready to grow.
