Lady from yesterday continued...

She gets on the table.

Client: "I still can't believe you knew I used Dove."

M.E. "And you have to stop putting cocoa butter on the area too."

Client: "Are you tripping?"

No, I don't take hallucinogenics, but I do know quite a bit about the bikini area and people's habits. Heavy lotions will also clog the sensitive skin down under. 

 Lady comes in. It's her 2nd time with me.

Client: "I broke out after my last wax."

M.E. "You went home and took a shower with Dove didn't you?"

Client: "Are you for real?"

I sure am and she sure did. She just couldn't believe I knew what she did when she went home. Moisturizing soaps can clog the pores after a wax. That's why we like our Black African Soap. At least for the puss and the pits....

We are so appreciative for shout-outs like this from our happy clients! Danielle did this stunning set of lashes. If you want eyes like this, Danielle splits her time between both Wax It All locations each week. Feel free to email, DM or call the salon for an appointment!

A vajacial is a salon service similar to a facial that helps you maintain a smoother, healthier bikini area. It helps combat ingrown hairs & bumps, acne, and hyperpigmentation. The best time to get this service done is one week after your wax. Since spring is around the corner, now is the time to schedule your vajacial with one of our experienced estheticians.

 

If Mark hadn't joined his parents at Style-O-Rama over 40 years ago, Rochester would have 3 less salons to go to. Happy birthday to the man that made it all happen!

 There was an incident at Mark & M.E. the other day that I need to share. A woman and mother of four, who has been getting waxed by me for several years, showed up very late to an appointment with one of our employees while I was out of town. She has been shady when leaving a credit card with us. And when she has given one to us in the past, it always ends up being bogus and gets declined when she doesn't show for her appointment and we try to charge the card. Since I was out of town, the newer staff didn't know this girl's history and made an appointment for a last minute wax without checking her profile. When she was done with the wax, she told our staff that she left her money in the car. She proceeded to not only take off without paying, she stole some very expensive products from us. 

This whole incident is very disheartening. Our staff works on commission so our employee basically did the service for free. We have been very patient with this woman's antics in the past and cannot believe she stole from us. I guess that's what we get for being nice to people and giving them the benefit of the doubt. Trust me, this is the last time we will ever allow this woman into any of our salons. 

 Salon hours and gift ideas:

Pick up a gift card for your Valentine this year and any of our 3 locations. And remember, our Greece location is open tomorrow (Sunday the 12th) at 9am for a few hours and our Pittsford location will be open Monday Feb 13th for your convenience!

 Some people get excited about "No Shave November."  Since I remove hair for a living and am all about the "bald is beautiful" look, it has never been my favorite trend. (although it's fun to remove the huge amount of hair clients bring to me December 1st!😁) But then I had a client who left all the hair on her entire body grow out. She likes to refer to this time as "No Shave Winter." 

 As you all know, we have serious plumbing problems at Wax It All because tampons are clogging our pipes. A few days ago, I threatened to raise the prices of Brazilians because we have spent thousands for plumbers. After that initial post, a client sent me a message that suggested it would be more cost effective to do DNA on the tampons rather than pay the plumbers. Not a bad idea!

 A client who I hadn't seen in awhile told me she brought me the Black Forest to her waxing appointment. She was fairly accurate. Fortunately, after her deforestation was complete, it wasn't so dark and spooky anymore. 

 I didn't know there was a week long Valentine's List. When I read it, all I could think of was if you want to smell like a rose, come see us! www.marknme.com   www.waxitallroc.com

If your kitty is getting hair all over the furniture, come see the de-furring experts at Mark & M.E. and Wax It All. We can't solve all of your problems, but we can definitely solve this one!

 

It's funny what people say when you are giving them a Brazilian Wax. Like the woman who yelled "Holy Wax-A-Mole!" Yep, sounded just like guacamole but she definitely wasn't talking about an appetizer - or maybe she was...

Have a great Day everyone!!!

 

 A woman came into the wax room and told me she brought me a fur coat. Since she only had a sweatshirt on, I knew she was referring to a different kind of fur...

 Just a friendly reminder that Wax It All in Pittsford will be open Monday February 13th by appointment only.  585-348-9355

 Space is limited so call today to reserve your spot!!

 See this? It's a tampon. And why am I showing you a pic of a tampon? Because I am currently on a first name basis with a plumber named Mike who is getting tired of pulling these bad boys out of our pipes at work. 

PLEASE dispose of your tampons in the garbage can. If not, I'm going to have to start buying stock in the plumbing company or we will have to start charging A LOT more for Brazilian Waxes.

 Client: I don't understand the people who only wax before a vacation or only in the summer. I like to feel pretty in my panties all the time!

Music to our ears...
