During a Brazilian, the client and I were discussing whether or not her husband would enjoy my hard work. She said that he definitely would NOT, because he was in the doghouse. I don't quite understand the whole doghouse thing. Why should both people suffer? I had a brilliant suggestion. Instead of doghouse, choose dog style, then she wouldn't have to look at him.

We are so much more than just a wax salon, and every once in awhile I feel the need to remind people of that fact. For example, once of my client's was interested in getting a facial. We have our own personalized skincare line that we love, and I just saw that this client left a review online. Had to share!

"M.E. always does a great job, but today she recommended a facial to me, and it was FABULOUS! Thank you, Sarah, can't wait to have another!"

I started writing The Happy Hoo-Ha in 2008. There is a chapter called "Bald At Any Age" that talks about how I have waxed women ages 13 to 75. Yesterday, that 13 year old came in. She was a ballet dancer at Draper back then and her mom brought her to Mark & M.E., because you could see her hair through her pink tights. It was so cool to see her almost a decade later as a young adult. It was also a reminder that I have been doing this a really long time.

Check out the article I wrote for August's issue of the Rochester Woman's Magazine. It's about Manscaping!

Got myself an ad in August's issue of Rochester Woman's Magazine. Feel kind of bad that it says "woman owned businesses" since Mark technically owns Mark & M.E.  Shhh, don't let him know. I like pretending I own the place!

I just came across this review about The Happy Hoo-Ha on Amazon from this year. I'm not sure which son the person was talking about, but it made me feel really good.
"I met this author's son on a plane ride to Rochester a few years back and we got to talking. We ended up chatting about books we were reading and he proudly told me about his family, and ended up telling me about his mother and this book. The name of the book stuck with me (so catchy) and I had been dying to read it. I'm happy that I finally got around to it. This book is both entertaining and insightful. M.E.'s open mindedness and acceptance of every client regardless of what they disclose to her is refreshing. Her insight and often funny stories about her client's lives make this a great read."

If you look closely at our amazing Olympians, you'll notice that most of them have very little or no body  hair. I wish someone would have hired me to wax them all. It would have been such an honor and such a blast!
