How can I pay for waxing?

If you are looking to pay for waxing there are several payment options that you can consider. If you have the funds readily available, of course you can simply pay for the service at time of delivery. If you are interested in paying over time, almost all providers accept general purpose credit cards. Many also accept the CareCredit health, wellness and personal care credit card, which may be a way for you to get the spa services you want immediately while paying over time with convenient payments that fit your budget.

Can I use my CareCredit credit card to pay for a waxing treatment?

Yes. If approved, you can use your CareCredit credit card at locations within the CareCredit network to finance your waxing or other spa services and treatments.

The benefit of using a CareCredit credit card is the opportunity to use promotional financing.* If approved, you can pay for the care you need immediately. You can use your CareCredit card again and again to pay for other health and wellness needs.
