Did you ever really look at our Mark & M.E. logo? We had a local artist draw this up for us. Her name was Karen Tomascelli and she actually had a couple model for it. Originally the man had his right knee wrapped around her left thigh, but it looked too naughty so I had her remove his leg. (yes, I thought it looked naughty!😂) My concept was to have a naked man and woman encased in her long hair, which would represent that we were a unisex hair salon. Now that I look at it closely, I realize the couple doesn't have any body hair. When this was drawn, I had just started waxing and wasn't as obsessed with hair removal as I am now. It really is perfect!
M.E. is the author of The Happy Hoo-Ha Trilogy, which can be found on Amazon as well as Barnes & Noble online. She also wrote a sexy nonfiction series called A Promise of Passion. M.E. has been blogging for years about the trials and tribulations of being a busy Brazilian Wax Technician because her job is that funny!

Imagine this scenario:
You come in to the salon with an overgrown bush in search of a silky smooth bikini area that is delectable and completely hair free. The technician puts wax on your mound that is so dense the warm extra sensitive product barely reaches the skin. As this same technician goes to put the strip on the wax, YOU CLOSE YOUR LEGS!!! Not only is this a terrible idea, you might as well glued your v-j-jay shut.

Due to increases in the price of our supplies, we are making some changes to our menu. We lasted four years with the same price list, so I guess it's time. Please remember you get a discount if you pay with cash. That's the best way to keep the price down so that beauty is affordable to all of you!
Thank you for your continued support of Mark & M.E. and Wax It All. We appreciate each and every one of you!!

I was watching some basketball and thinking about this past week at work. One of the funniest moments I could think of happened while I was waxing a young woman who gave me a really hard time. She kept sitting up and grabbing my arm. Every time she would grab my arm, I would physically take her hand and put it on her boob. I told her I couldn't wax her with one arm so she needed to hang onto herself, not me.

It's funny how many women came in for Brazilians this week that were sporting the "natural look" on their legs. In case you were wondering, we can make the wax travel beyond the bikini line...

Is this you because it describes several people that walked into Wax It All yesterday. Hey folks, spring is here. Think it might be about time for you to come see us.

Have you missed me??? I've never gone this long without blogging and I started my blog in 2010. So it's time to get talking and get laughing again...
We would prefer if you waxed your legs but then I'm not sure how we could donate the hair that was encased in wax and stuck on the wax strip to the charity. It would create some funky wigs!

Are you sick and tired of his family jewels being hairy or even worse - scratchy - and you want him to get a Brazilian Wax? I bet suggesting it went over like broken glass in your gatorade. I know he is afraid that his majestic jewels will end up looking like a ruby when the service is over, but don't worry, I am here to help. Pick him up some coconut oil and have him use it every day after his shower. Hydrated jewels wax so much better than dry ones. Believe me, waxed jewels will make him a KING!

A lot of women who are coming in for Brazilian Waxes this month are sporting hairy tree trunks. I guess you'd call this look an exaggerated mullet? We just wanted to let you know that this is a great time of year to start waxing your legs.

Like the Egyptians, I'm a huge fan of proper grooming. This week I'm working at Mark & M.E. Tuesday from 9-6, Wednesday at Wax It All from 9-6 and Thursday at Wax It All from 9-2. I return to work March 22. Please plan your Egyptian Brazilian accordingly!

Male Brazilians, Brozilians, Manzilians...whatever you want to call it works for us. It's a professional, legitimate service that more men are embarking on every day. There are times, however, when certain parts feel a little hot after the wax has been completed. Fortunately, we offer a product called No Trauma Momma that soothes the heat immediately. Face it, there are certain things you don't want hot.

Both salons were inundated with Spring Breakers this week, which was a lot different than the past two years. It was fun giving all of these young men and women their Brazilian Waxes so they could party in the tropics. It's exciting to feel like life is getting back to normal. Have fun everyone!

Yesterday, a girl told me I was dope. Since getting high makes you happy, I took it as a compliment. Smoking also relaxes you, which isn't how most people would describe getting a Brazilian Wax. But I agree with Ted, getting waxed really isn't that bad!

"Thank you for calling Mark & M.E. This is Mary Elizabeth. How can I help you today?"
"Did you say this is a garden factory that I just called?"
"No, you've called the Mark & M.E. Salon."
"Thank goodness. My garden definitely needs some attention but it's not that kind of garden!"
