National Beauty Chain Plans Third Neighborhood Addition
European Wax Center wants to open seven new locations in Chicago, including Lincoln Square, Wicker Park and Lincoln Park.

Lincoln Park, Wicker Park and Lincoln Square will soon join Lake View as neighborhoods with new European Wax Centers.
The national waxing salon chain plans to have four new North Side locations by the fall of 2013. Patch first reported a European Wax build-out at 3728 N. Southport Ave. in Lake View.
A representative with the general contractor at the scene said construction has been under way for almost two weeks, and they plan to be finished and open in about a month.

European Waxing is quite simply a waxing salon, offering less expensive services for both men and women.
Clients can book their appointments online for treatments using the company’s patented “comfort wax,” which, according to their website, sets them apart from other salons.
Prices range from lip and chin waxing for $9 to Brazilian bikini waxing for $42 and full leg waxing for $60. Prices are the same for men.
