Let’s hair it for the groomed boys (and gals).
Following his recent on-air conversation with Andy Cohen on Sirius XM about ear hair and how to get rid of it, John Hill has partnered with European Wax Center to continue the discussion about breaking down the stigma around men’s grooming and sharing his firsthand ear waxing experience.
The “Andy Cohen Live” segment was a smash hit. We sat down with Hill to discuss the moment and why it’s important to get yourself smoothed over with a glow up.
Most people in the past might have been embarrassed about talking about something like ear hair. But times are changing! How does it feel to be leading the charge on good grooming habits?
We’ve all spent too long pretending we don’t have bodies — or hair in unexpected places. Partnering with European Wax Center makes talking about grooming effortless. Their Comfort Wax grips hair, not skin, warms gently, and softens while minimizing irritation — even sensitive areas are handled with zero fear. On top of that, their aftercare and skin products keep your skin smooth, hydrated, and healthy between visits.
With experts making it actually comfortable, it stops being awkward and just feels like another way to feel and look my best. Talking about ear hair? I’m happy to lead that charge.
What surprised you the most about going viral with Andy? What was the best thing that came about it?
I think what surprised me most was how universal the reaction was. People loved that we just went in, got waxed, and laughed about it — Andy even brought his son as his Valentine, which made the whole thing hilarious and a story we’ll remember for a long time.
How does it feel to partner with EWC? What do you think they do the best in the industry for men – and women?
It’s a perfect fit. EWC isn’t just about waxing — it’s about making grooming approachable, efficient, and actually comfortable. Their trained specialists, along with the Comfort Wax® and skin care products, take all the guesswork and intimidation out of the experience.
For men, they make trying something new easy. For women, their consistency and expertise keep skin smooth and healthy between visits. Basically, you walk in, the pros handle it, and you walk out feeling better — simple as that.
And now, your own perfect time to shine this upcoming in spring is available with services and products from EWC. They do the waxing, but they also have an incredible line of at home items to use to help you feel your very best. The launch of the Spongellé for EWC SLOW® Aloe Body Buffer, the newest addition to its popular EWC SLOW® product line, is designed to help guests maintain smoother-looking skin between waxes.
Building on the success of the EWC TREAT® Get Smooth Body Buffer, this latest collaboration with bath and body care company, Spongellé®, combines European Wax Center’s signature aloe fragrance and narcissus bulb extract ingredient with Spongellé®’s popular Body Wash Infused Buffer technology.
The result is a convenient, all-in-one cleansing and exfoliating buffer that supports visibly reduced hair thickness while leaving skin soft, refreshed, and confident.
“Our guests are looking for simple, effective ways to maintain their smooth results between visits,” said Katie Mullen, Chief Commercial Officer of European Wax Center. “The Aloe Body Buffer brings together exfoliation, cleansing, and our signature EWC SLOW® hair growth minimizer in one easy step, making it even more convenient to care for skin at home.”
The Spongellé® for EWC SLOW Aloe Buffer is available on waxcenter.com and at European Wax Center locations nationwide.
