West Coast Esthetician

The best thing about Fall? Peel season is officially here! 🍁✨
I just sent out an email to our subscribers, but I didn’t want my social media family to miss out. We are officially booking for our Linder Health chemical peels!
If you want to erase summer sun damage, clear up breakouts, and get that ultimate autumn glow without the crazy downtime or harsh inflammation, this is your sign to start a series.
We have a formula perfectly customized for your exact skin goals:
🧪 Hero Peel: For erasing stubborn sun damage, fine lines, and aging skin.
🧪 Spot(less) Peel: For clearing active acne, congestion, and post-breakout marks.
🧪 Polite Peel: Our ultra-gentle formula specifically designed to target redness, sensitive skin, and chronic inflammation.
To celebrate the season, I’m running an exclusive package special:
• 3 Peels for $180 (Save big & kickstart your results!)
• 5 Peels for $300 (The ultimate skin transformation package!)
🚨 THE CATCH: You must purchase your package and book your first service by Halloween (October 31st)! We need to start your series now so we can get all of your treatments completed before the First of the Year.

P.S. If you missed our email newsletter, drop your email below and I’ll make sure you’re added to the list for future secret specials! 💌

Shoes on, shoes off, socks on, socks off… 🤷‍♀️

Whatever makes you comfortable!

One of my clients hopped up on the sugaring table today with her shoes still on and I thought it was just too cute not to share. 😂

There’s no right or wrong way to do your service here. If you’re in a hurry, we’ll get you in and out.

You do you. I’ve got you. 💛

I’m really grateful this picture of me and Myra was taken at the Oregon Esthetics Show.

Because when I look at it now, I see so much more than two people smiling for a picture.

I see where it started.

And I see a version of myself that was carrying so much more than anyone could see.

I was lost in a lot of ways. I was trying to find my way back to myself, and somehow, in the middle of all of that, sugaring found me.

It gave me something to pour myself into. It gave me people to learn from, a community to belong to, and a place to grow when I really needed one.

I will always be grateful for that.

But I think I’m ready to stop looking backward so much.

Not because that chapter doesn’t matter. It does. It shaped me. It brought me here. And I’ll always be grateful for the people who were part of it.

But maybe it’s time to let that version of me rest.

She got me here.

I don’t need to keep going back to where I was found to appreciate where I am now.

So when you see me at SWWON in San Diego, you’ll be seeing a version of me that didn’t exist when this picture was taken.

A little wiser. A little stronger. A lot more sure of who I am.

I’m looking forward to seeing familiar faces, making new memories, learning, laughing, and celebrating this industry that has been such a huge part of my journey.

I don’t know exactly what the future holds.

But I’m excited to find out. ❤️

Here’s to the next chapter.

A tiny studio PSA 🧺😂

These two cans may look identical… but they have very different jobs!

🛑 RED BIOHAZARD STICKER
→ Disposable wipes & trash

🧺 NO STICKER
→ Used towels & linens

So when you use one of the wipes provided during your Brazilian service, please send that little guy to the chrome can with the red biohazard sticker. ❤️

Because as much as we love a good laundry day, disposable wipes do NOT belong on the towel’s itinerary. 😂

Thank you for helping me keep the studio clean, sanitary, and the laundry machine blissfully unaware of what could have happened. 😆

🌴 Oregon beauty friends — who’s coming to San Diego?!

I’ll be heading to SWWON Summit 2026 in San Diego September 19th & 20th, and I’m really excited about it!

If you’re in the sugaring, waxing, or esthetics world, this is a great opportunity to connect with other industry professionals, learn, network, and spend a little time in San Diego. ☀️

There is also additional education available on September 18th, so if you’re interested in adding an education day to your trip, definitely check out the website for all the details!

🎟️ I also have a $30 OFF promo code: KARI30

For registration, education options, schedule, and additional information, check out:

Who’s going?! I’d love to see some Oregon faces there! 💕

SugarCon recap… with a twist. 😄💚

Apparently Instagram only lets me add 20 photos… so consider this my best attempt at narrowing down a trip that had way too many good memories.

This trip turned into the perfect mix of work and adventure.

🌲 Hiking to waterfalls.
🚲 Biking scenic trails.
🛍️ Wandering through farmers markets.
🍽️ Finding great local food.
🍯 Spending a day at SugarCon with the Sugar Mama Pro booth.

One of my favorite parts was finally meeting people I’d only known through Instagram, catching up with familiar faces, and making a few new connections along the way.

Then it was back outside for more exploring before heading home.

I’d call that a pretty great week. 💚

Congratulations on completing your training with Guru Sugaring Academy! So special having her mom and sister travel in to support her on day one of training—what a beautiful way to start this journey 🤍

✨ Services performed under supervision
✨ Must be comfortable being a training model

Model requirements:
