Franchise Testimonial
Our mission.
Our vision. Our future.
To build a worldwide community of successful unisex waxing franchises that deliver an enjoyable, relaxing and fast customer experience, one prosperous unit at a time.
Today we provide our franchises with a proven system solely focused on a unique service that exceeds both our customers’ and franchisees’ expectations.
Noemi Grupenmager transformed her passion for stellar customer service into a business built on volume. Uni K Wax is expanding rapidly.
Turn your passion into a unique business opportunity.
Buying an existing studio rather than starting from scratch can be a great way to start a business quickly and, in some cases, more economically. In most cases the new buyer benefits from existing business assets such as an existing customer base, knowledgeable staff, goodwill and a proven location with history in the community. Many are able to start serving customers as soon as they buy the existing studio from a current franchisee.

No, not at all. All new franchisees participate in an interactive training program. This consists of training at Uni K University Training Center located in Aventura, FL, as well as at your franchised location prior to and in conjunction with opening your new location. Franchisees receive regular follow-up updates to their training, including on-site reviews.
We don’t see why not…about 50% of our franchisees currently own more than one! Just be aware that each Studio is different and cost is dependent on a variety of factors, including site selection and build-out requirements.
We’re actively seeking highly qualified individuals to become franchisees. Prior business experience, coupled with personal financial qualifications, individual motivation, a track record of success and an authentic appreciation for our unique business model are important factors in our qualification process. In addition, we’re looking for candidates who understand the service industry and are dedicated to building and nurturing great employee–customer relationships.

request more information »Our story began when founder Noemi Grupenmager set out to transform the personal grooming category from a back-of-salon afterthought into a superlative, single-minded service delivered by professionals in a hygienically pristine and completely approachable environment. In 1993, she opened the first-of-its-kind unisex waxing studio in South Beach and within six months the salon was servicing 200 customers a day.
Continually looking to improve her business, Noemi created an natural, elastic wax to replace the industry’s standard process of using painful honey wax and paper strips. To accompany this skin-friendly wax, she designed a precise technique of application and removal to optimize comfort and reduce service time. And to further enhance the hygienic standards synonymous with our brand, she integrated an on-site wax lab where certified lab technicians prepare individualized wax warmers for each customer’s service.
The success of her proprietary wax, coupled with a carefully developed franchise business model and a loyal customer base, has given us the opportunity to grow to multiple waxing Studios along the East Coast, with more locations on the way.
