It’s important to keep your sense of humor throughout the day. We live in such a stressful time that I like to keep a positive attitude as much as possible. So when I saw that today is National Lemonade Day, all I could think of was a silly (and kind of naughty) song that we used to sing as a kid. Do you remember the ending????

Milk Milk Lemonade, Turn the corner….

 Apparently it is “National Clean off Your Desk Day.” Although I have an office with several desks in it, when I’m working at the salon, my desk is my waxing table. So you know what my first thought was when I heard it was national clean off your desk day? Is your kitty cleaned off? And then I saw this meme, and I realized it was perfect since I was one of the first technicians to do Brazilians in Rochester! Yes, I was cleaning my desk before it was cool!

 I was researching 2022 hair trends again. They say that using the right products is going to be very important this year since we aren’t quarantined as much (we aren’t?) and people want to look their best now that they’re going out in public a lot more.  Apparently parted hair in the middle that is smooth and shiny is the way to go. I immediately thought it would be cool to develop Brazilian Bikini Hair products for my clients who like to leave a landing strip or martini glass behind. I have a few ideas for products that would be great for hoo-ha hair styles! Feel free to DM m.e. 😂

 Although we are famous for removing hair (a.k.a. Home of the 10 Minute Brazilian), sometimes we actually add hair, and I’m not referring to a merkin. After months of searching, we hired an experienced lash tech to join our team at Mark & M.E. She has been with us for three weeks and our clients have been impressed by her speed, efficiency and retention. If you want to give Gianna a try, mention this post and you’ll receive 20% off a full set or a fill. Thanks!

 I like to learn as much as possible about every client that lies on my table for a Brazilian Wax. I waxed a woman today who told me she was a veterinarian. I laughed and said that I felt like a veterinarian sometimes. She looked at me puzzled. I told her I spend all day working with kitties!

 Mark & Mary Elizabeth will be back to work tomorrow after a much needed break. We wanted to give a big shout out to our staff at both locations for keeping the salons running smoothly while we were away!!

{P.S. M.E. is looking forward to rummaging through The Brazilian Rainforest so give her a call if your shrubbery is overgrown.}

 If this is how you’re feeling, you may want to schedule a facial this week – or even a pedicure. Both can help with the side effects of an over-indulgent New Year Celebration! www.marknme.com

 When I was looking up hair trends in 2022, the 2nd pic I came across was ‘baby braids.’ I had to laugh because whenever I go out of town, I have a lot of clients that wait until I get back to get waxed. Often, especially in the winter months, clients wait so long to get a Brazilian that, by the time I get back to work,  it’s possible for me to put baby braids in their bush!😂

 Apparently January 2nd is National Creme Puff Day, which gives us even more reasons to celebrate (if you’re a creme puff fan that is.) 

 Regardless of your fascination with creamy fillings, we wanted to let you know that all of us at Mark & M.E. and Wax It All are as psyched as this little critter to help you feel as beautiful as possible this coming year!

The entire gang at Mark & M.E. and Wax It All would like to wish everyone a Very Happy New Year!!!!

We hope your year is full of good health, blessed lives, happy times and of course, sphinx kitties!
