DUDE, YOU GOT ME PUMPED! WHAT ABOUT YOUR SHADOWING?
We offer our Shadowing Summit. Twice a year, we host up to 6 estheticians for a full day ($3400) of back to back waxing. The day begins with a demonstration and theory. Afterwards, 2 esthies will be assigned to one Wax Elder (Pai our co-founder and/or Gavi and Rika our senior instructors). Each esthie will have AT LEAST six of her own models to complete full brazilians. Models will come in different sizes, shapes of varying ethnicities and different hair types. You will have back-to-back, hands-on, physical training. No theory, no drawings, no plastic diagram. When you’re done, you’ll sit down, air out your shirt, cry and question your life choices….for 3 seconds until the next client walks in, gets naked and you do it all over again
The Shadowing Summit is divided into sessions: Morning and Afternoon:

Class is INTENSE.
WOW. OKAY, BUT THE PRICE IS A LITTLE STEEP. OTHER PLACES CHARGE LESS.
You’re right. Other places have upwards of 8 students who each pay $1000 and and all eight students will work on ONE model. They'll first practice spreading wax on a useless silicone mat with very little actual hands-on training. Trust us when we tell you, waxing one-eighth of a brazilian is HUGELY DIFFERENT from waxing SIX FULL Brazilians back-to-back. Listen, there’s a method to everyone’s madness so no offense to other schools and their emailed-certificates where you’ll get a lot of theory, hear a lot about technique, maybe remove a few strips and take a home a goodie bag. But you won’t get the kind of annoying, microscopic, micro-managing correction we provide.
Also, every summit experience is as tailored as possible to each individual attendee. Upon signing up, you will answer a dozen questions so we can (1) match you up with your ideal Waxing Elder (2) pair you with the appropriate waxing models depending on your experience and (3) customize your itinerary.
GOT IT. BUT WHY YOU? ARE YOU BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE?
We are a boutique waxing shoppe which means ALL we do is wax. There are no vajacials, lash extensions or brow laminations. We eat, breathe, obsess and overthink about everything waxing.
WILL I BE A LEGENDARY WAXER LIKE YOU AFTERWARDS?
Keep dreaming. Nah, it takes hundreds of hours and countless clients with different body types, hair textures, density and volume to get to where you want to go. We always say when it comes to waxing, you can’t get to quality without first going through quantity. That said, after our class, you’ll feel a tad more prepared and will have a much better understanding of what you need to do. And you’ll cry a lot less. Maybe.
HEARD YOU USE STRIP WAX. CAN YOU TEACH USING HARD WAX, SUGARING, GORILLA GLUE INSTEAD?
Yes, we use strip wax. Although we trained on hard wax, we switched to soft wax because we like it. No reason beyond that.
There’s a pointless debate in the waxing industry about which is best and everyone will die on their sword declaring that theirs (hard wax, sugaring, epoxy resin) work best.
But let us blow your mind….when a waxer first starts her business, she test drives ALL the waxes. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.
Doesn’t matter what highly contaminated, pubic hair-filled wax pot she used when she first learned how to deforest in Beauty School. Forget about which brand she used at the salon that first hired her when she had no business DESTROYING unsuspecting labias and penises. When you open your own studio, you still test every wax because you’re trying to decipher (1) price point/profit per can (2) effectiveness (3) ease of use.
So the type (sugaring, hard vs soft) and brand (Satin Smooth, Gigi, Cirepil, Berodin, home made glitter confusion) that your esthie-bestie ends up using is subjective to her price point and ease of use. Even with sugaring, the recipe isn’t exact between practitioners. And every waxer will most likely regurgitate the propaganda that the entire waxing industry bleats: our type/brand is less painful, sticks to the hair and not the skin, doesn’t break hairs, causes less irritation, will find you a boyfriend who listens to your problems without offering advice.🙄🙄
At this point, focus more on learning wax application and technique and then niche down to the type of wax you believe in. If you master any wax, but you later switch to a different brand or type because it’s environmentally friendly or it’s all organic or it’s texture reminds you of the soft plush leather you could have a sexual relationship with, the learning curve will be much lower.
