EUROPEAN WAX CENTER, AX THE PINK TAX
integrated campaign
[Effie 2019] + [ Clio 2018 ] + [Shorty 2019]
European Wax Center is a brand that celebrates women. They know we’re boss, that’s why they won’t stand for companies who charge women more via the pink tax. Women pay an extra $1,351 every year on goods and services due to this discriminatory practice.
As a brand that celebrates women, we have to advocate for them when we see a need.
We want to level the playing field. We want to #AxThePinkTax
This campaign spanned all of European Wax Center’s 800+ franchises across the U.S., had a large online video presence, ads pushing to the microsite, influencer campaign, magazine print, and out-of-home activations.
