Licensed Esthetician - Waxing & Client Experience Specialist

At Waxing the City, our licensed service providers are not only waxing experts, they’re waxing authorities. This led us to create our very own title of Cerologist™ technicians, combining “cera” (Latin for wax) with “ologist” (to highlight their level of education and expertise). After a week-long, hands-on training course at our Waxing University®, our service providers become certified Cerologists.

LOVE WHAT YOU DO

Do you love waxing, connecting with clients, and helping people feel confident? Does educating guests, recommending products and services, and sharing the latest beauty trends energize you? If so, Waxing the City may be the perfect fit!

We’re seeking full-time licensed beauty professionals who are passionate about exceptional service, building strong client relationships, and growing a loyal book of business. Our Cerologists™ are more than service providers; they educate guests, recommend personalized services and aftercare products, sell memberships, consistently rebook clients, and create experiences that keep guests coming back.

Waxing experience is a plus, but a strong sales and client-service mindset is just as important. If you have experience in beauty, retail, hospitality, fitness, membership sales, or another customer-facing environment where you’ve worked toward sales or performance goals, we’d love to hear from you.
