Trending: Ancient Beauty Ritual

Explore the possibilities of a hair removal alternative with Sugaring NYC

There is one local female-owned business in town that is way ahead of the trend—generations ahead.

Mona Dahdah, owner of Sugaring NYC–Spring Valley, located at 7325 South Rainbow Boulevard, Suite 120, Las Vegas, Nev., had a passion for “sugaring” long before its recent surge in popularity. Her motivation for opening this business stemmed from her desire to educate others about the benefits of sugaring as a hair removal alternative.

"The concept of sugaring, and the reason I opened a Sugaring NYC, is deeply rooted in my personal heritage," Mona shared. "I grew up watching my Lebanese grandmother craft sugar paste and perform sugaring on her friends. That truly is what ignited my fascination with this traditional technique."

Inspired by the ancient practice of sugaring, which dates back to Cleopatra's era, Mona was captivated by its natural and gentle qualities.

"When I stumbled upon the opportunity to turn my passion into a business, it felt like a natural calling. Not only did the concept resonate with me on a personal level, but also it allowed me to honor my grandmother's legacy," Mona reflects.

She poured her heart and soul into building her all-organic waxing franchise, focusing on personalized care and top-notch service.

"As a licensed esthetician, I have the privilege of working directly with clients in my salon," she explains. "I thrive on being hands-on with my business, ensuring that every individual who walks through the doors of Sugaring NYC – Spring Valley leaves with a fantastic experience."

"Sugar waxing is a method of hair removal that utilizes a natural paste made of sugar, water, and lemon juice," explained Mona. "This paste is applied in the opposite direction of hair growth and quickly removed." This method is known to be a gentler alternative to traditional waxing, as the paste is applied at body temperature and will not burn the skin.

"The paste cannot adhere to live skin cells, resulting in less discomfort and trauma to the skin," she added. "Sugaring can lead to smoother results and is often favored by those with sensitive skin."

By raising awareness of and providing access to this ancient beauty ritual, Mona hopes to empower individuals to make informed choices about their skincare routines.

"We pride ourselves on providing clients with an exceptional experience, regardless of gender," she emphasizes. "What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to delivering top-notch customer service, ensuring every client feels valued and cared for during their visit."

Clients consistently rave about the remarkable results they achieve through sugaring, leaving them smoother and more satisfied than ever before. Moreover, Mona's salon's cleanliness and charming ambiance contribute to an overall delightful experience, making every visit a memorable one.

Sugaring NYC–Spring Valley offers a comprehensive range of services designed to cater to clients' every need.

"Our specialty lies in full-body sugaring, including facial hair removal, a favorite among women seeking gentle exfoliation of the skin along with hair removal," Mona explained. "In addition to sugaring, we provide V-Facials, lash lifts, brow laminations, and custom organic airbrush tanning services."

Mona encourages customers to look for exciting additions to their menu, ensuring that her clients always have access to the most cutting-edge and timeless beauty treatments available.
