A little about me…I am an Alaskan raised mom of 4. When I left Alaska 13 years ago, I wanted a career change. It is important to me to wake up every day and love what I am doing! I decided to get into esthetics because I believe in natural health and skin care and want to share that passion with the people I meet. I discovered sugaring and decided to give it a try after wax just wasn't agreeing with my skin. I immediately fell in love with this natural and effective form of hair removal- and I know you will too!

I was born and raised in Boulder. I went to beauty school in 2009 for hair and unexpectedly ended up loving my esthetics classes. When I finally had the opportunity to be sugared after hearing about for years, I knew sugaring was the direction I wanted to take my career. I love the technique and finesse required for sugaring and providing a service I feel is more effective and better for our bodies and the environment. I am also a hairstylist at Arabella Salon in NE.

A bit about me...I attended the Aveda Institute and earned my esthetics license in October of 2014. I began my career in esthetics in February of 2015 and soon after, moved from my hometown of Camas, WA here to Portland. I am a big green beauty enthusiast which feeds my passion for plant based skincare and sugar hair removal. When outside the treatment room I often spend my time outdoors, or enjoying the company of my family. I love having the opportunity to meet new people, and being able to help them feel confident and comfortable in their own skin!

I was born and raised in Oregon. I grew up in Canby and went to the Aveda Institute Portland. I have always been obsessed with all things beauty and I always knew I wanted to help people in some way when it came to what I did for a living. Being able to work as an esthetician I’m able to combine those two passions and create a positive impact on peoples day. When I learned what sugaring was I knew it was the route I wanted to take my career, as someone who is obsessed with green beauty it was a perfect fit!

I was born in Washington but was raised most of my life in Portland. I have a little boy that means the world to me, and is the reason I went to cosmetology school. I went to Phagans school of hair design, I went for nails and hair, but ended up loving esthetics! I finished at the top of my class in each field. I enjoy being able to make anyone that comes to me be able to leave feeling refreshed and beautified. I have always had a passion for this field. I look forward to meeting you and being able to enhance your natural beauty!

Hi, Im Zoe! I was born in Astoria, OR and moved to Portland in 2020. Growing up, I struggled with Acne, which sparked my passion for skincare and overall wellness. That journey led me to Bella Institute of Cosmetology, where I graduated in 2024 and have since loved helping people be confident in their skin. What really drew me to sugaring was its simple yet effective ingredients-- just sugar, lemon, and water! I love that its a natural alternative to traditional waxing and is gentle on the skin, making it the perfect for those with sensitivities. As someone with easily irritated skin, I appreciate how sugaring minimizes redness and irritation while still delivering long lasting results. When Im not in the studio I enjoy spending time reading an action or romance novel, hiking, going to music festivals or relaxing at home with my cat, Kirby.
