Who We Are

European Wax Center, Inc. (NASDAQ: EWCZ) is the largest and fastest-growing franchisor and operator of out-of-home body waxing services, with over 1,000 locations in the United States.

What sets us apart is our unique combination of philosophy, exceptional service, proprietary products, and a comfortable, consistent guest experience. Together, these elements have established EWC as the leader in the waxing services category.

We’re backed by a strong, well-established team supporting every function of the business — including marketing, technology, accounting, finance and more — all working together to empower our franchisees and elevate the brand.

Our History

What began with a bold idea, to focus exclusively on waxing, led to the creation of our signature Comfort Wax® and the opening of our first center in 2004.

Today, we’re a publicly traded company on NASDAQ (EWCZ), with over 1,000 locations nationwide, with a proprietary product line and a loyal guest base. Our story is one of innovation, resilience, and growth, making us not just a beauty brand, but a thriving, established business with a clear vision for future growth.

Driven By Purpose

We’re committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment that values and embraces the different ethnicities, races, cultures, ages, abilities, gender identities, and systems of belief that comprise the European Wax Center workforce and guests. Grounded in our values, our goal is to ensure that we create awareness, community, and safe spaces for all.

To achieve this goal, we have implemented several initiatives that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion within our organization.

DE&I Initiatives

  • Equitable Employment Practices

    We strive to attract a diverse pool of candidates for all job openings and ensure that our hiring practices are fair and equitable. We’ve also implemented policies and benefits that support our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

  • Education

    We provide regular DE&I training sessions and resources for all corporate associates to increase awareness and understanding of different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. We also create opportunities for our associates to engage and connect with one another via discussions on current events, media clips, books, podcasts, articles and other materials exploring topics related to diversity and inclusion that challenge our biases.

  • Mentorship

    We believe in providing ample opportunities for growth and development to our associates. To help associates navigate their careers, we offer a voluntary mentorship program that helps identify and develop vital skills.

  • Allyship

    Our Allies Committee is a broad-based initiative that offers support for associates across the organization by colleagues who volunteer to serve as allies. These allies provide a safe space for a diverse cross section of associates to talk about any topic, seek guidance and feel heard.

  • Giving Back

    We are proud to support the missions of organizations like WeHero and the National Domestic Violence Hotline through volunteerism and donation. By partnering with these organizations and others, we hope to make a difference in the lives of those in need and inspire more champions of confidence.

Moments That Bring Us Together

Our Fun Committee brings our value of having fun while being awesome to life, creating moments for our associates to connect, celebrate, and give back to our community in meaningful ways.

Philanthropic Initiatives

Pathways to Success

The mission of Pathways to Success, our brand-wide philanthropic effort, is to help create smoother pathways by empowering and supporting our associates, guests and communities through two pillars:

  • (Re)Build

    Under the (Re)Build pillar, we aim to rebuild confidence, lift those in need of a second chance at success, and support individuals who have faced adversity. In 2024, we brought the (Re)build pillar to life by joining hands with the National Domestic Violence Hotline to bring attention to this critical topic and offer support, resources, and funding to help survivors thrive. To learn more about the hotline visit thehotline.org

  • Unlock

    Under the Unlock pillar, we seek to open opportunities and careers people love through expert guidance, mentorship, and scholarship. One way we’re doing that is by investing in our associates’ development to help them achieve their goals and build a long-lasting career. In 2022, we launched the “Champions in Confidence” EWC associate scholarship in partnership with Beauty Changes Lives that awards two $10,000 scholarships to EWC associates to help them pursue a career in waxing.
